Want to lower your toxic burden?

We live in a world full of cleaners, chemicals and toxins.  It has become part of our daily routine, between doing the laundry, cleaning the house and maintaining the home and yard, we are exposed to hundreds of chemicals in our own homes.  In fact statistics show 500 new toxins are introduced into the environment daily!  

The question is: are these toxins negatively effecting you?

Do we really know?  Isn't pretty much everything bad for us and eventually going to give us cancer?

Yes and No.  Yes, we can find out if the products we are using are toxic and potentially cancaer causing.

No, not everything is bad for us when it comes to cleaners and does not have to be cancerous.

Check out this cool interactive house tool from  www.everdayexposure.com and find out what has the potential to harm you.

Being aware and avoiding toxins IS part of the solution.

Start a toxic free life today and lower your toxic burden!

Do you have your Toxic Umbrella-Part III? Clean out your fat cells

As a lab interpreter, I think it is very important to check exposure levels so I ran a Chlorinated Pesticides/PCBs/Volatile Solvents test on myself as I believe if I am going to ask a client to do something I have to do it myself first.  I am the first person in the world to come back below the detectable limit for Pesticides, PCBs and solvents.  Trust me, I questioned this too and had an extensive conversation with the lab as they ran the results more than once to verify.  They asked me if I lived in a bubble (non-plastic of course).  I am very aware now and take great effort to limit my exposure, but I used to be a painting contractor and took a bath in most of the tested solvents.  So eliminating these items and testing below the detectable limit doesn’t happen by accident and I have done more detox protocols than I can count on my fingers and toes and use a non-toxic Infrared Sauna like crazy.  Honestly the best defense is being aware, you can lower your toxic exposure by 85% simply by being aware, however once it sits in your fat cells it takes sophisticated protocols and great effort to get rid of these nasty bastards.  For example they are finding fat soluble toxins like DDT in newborns which is evidence these toxins have a half-life of about 40 years and are carrying from generation to generation.  This massive exposure is why you are seeing obese babies being born (they aren’t eating McDonalds yet).  

It is an overwhelming toxic world, however You can do something about this exposure.
Being aware is the first step, cleaning out your fat cells through proper detoxing is next!
