Just like dusting your furniture and cleaning your bathrooms,
the
human body needs to be cleaned, too. Especially if you have a
diet
that includes hydrogenated fats and oils, refined white sugar
and
white flour, diet food products, or exposure to any of the 14,000
food chemicals within American processed foods and medications.
Here is a checklist of symptoms to signal it may be time for
a
reliable "body cleaning" followed by a detoxification
program:
* Do you experience fatigue or low energy levels?
* Do you experience brain fog, lack of concentration and /or poor
memory?
* Do you crave or eat sugar?
* Do you have less than two bowel movements per day?
* Do you feel sleepy after meals, bloated or gassy?
* Do you experience indigestion/acid reflux after eating?
* Are you overweight?
* Do you exercise at least every other day?
* Do you experience recurring yeast infections, jock itch, or
foot fungus?
* Do you have arthritic aches and pains or stiffness?
* Do you take prescription medications, sedatives or stimulants?
* Do you experience frequent headaches?
* Do you live with or near polluted air, water or other environmental
pollution?
* Do you have bad breath or excessive body odor?
* Do you experience depression or mood swings?
* Do you have food allergies or skin problems?
* Are you showing signs of premature aging?
* Do you eat fast food, fatty foods, pre-prepared foods or fried
foods more than three times a week?
* Do you drink processed coffees and colas during the day?
* Do you smoke cigarettes every day?
If you answered yes to three or more of the above questions,
it may be
time for that detoxification program you've been putting off -
after
you've cleaned the house, that is!
