REPLACING YOUR CELLS

Our red blood cells are replaced every one hundred twenty days. Every five to ten days the lining of our gastrointestinal tract is replaced with new cells. And every thirty days our skin is replaced as well with new cells. The process is even faster in some areas of our bodies for example, a corneal abrasion takes two days to heal.

   This is why its so important to feed your body with living foods that contain the vitamins, minerals, nutrients, food and enzymes we need. As your cells die and are replaced , the new cells are totally dependent on the building materials available. If the materials are strong, you ll have a robust body, resisting diseases. 

   The heart, lungs and kidney etc have their own unique enzymes system. That is why it is so imperative to eat a diet of living foods.

THE DILEMMA OF DEAD FOOD!

Dead food are packed and processed with chemicals and preservatives. You can eat food that is organic everyday, but most of it is cooked on high heat then it is void of nutrition. When you add up everything you put in your mouth, from baked, boiled, broiled, and fried, you may find out you are eating a majority of "dead food".

    Your bodies must be built with strong materials since your body virtually is being remade every year, it needs to be reconstructed with vibrant powerful cells that can resist diseases. You are what you digest and absorb. That is why people everywhere need to eat living food- fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, nuts and seeds that will have their enzymes in them. Atleast half of your food should be living raw foods or lightly steamed or stir fried.

      ENZYMES

        Enzymes often hold the key to better health. They are considered the "missing link" in health rebuilding. In your body, each and every element is vital for smooth running efficiency. Enzymes are tiny elements that may even be more valuable to body health than other nutrients.

       Enzymes enter into digestive functions.

* Help transform raw materials into body cells

* Store glycogen in the liver and mscles

* Change carbohydrates into fats

* Then transform protein into sugar and fats

* They work to help to dispose the waste products of digestion.

* Enter into just every activity to help maintain life processes.Without enzymes life would cease.

   Every cell of the body has 1000 enzymes. Every moment, throughout your body, about two millions biochemical reactions take place that require the use of enzymes for motility. A deficiency of any enzyme can create nutritional upheaval to weaken and break the chain of interrelated health.

   Specially, enzymes are body catalysts, that is, they speed up a biochemical reaction that would otherwise proceed at a much slower rate, if it would proceed at all.

MAKE SURE YOU ARE GETTING ENOUGH

  Nature has placed enzymes in raw food but most foods are cooked . Therefore, when the temperature of cooking water or heat reaches over 40 degree, the enzymes are destroy. It is wise to eat as many raw fruit and vegetables as possible so as to obtain an adequate amount of enzymes. Many people do not eat enough raw foods and thus enzymes deficit.

Acne, in particular, can be related to the toxins in our diet or skin care products- puffy eyes and eczema or psoriasis( A chronic skin diseases in which scaly pink patches form on the elbows, knees, scalp and other parts of the body) outbreaks can also be signs that you're just reached your toxic limit.
2.  SENSITIVITY TO SCENTS
       Strong reactions to smells - particularly fragrances might mean that you are simply sensitive to chemicals, which many of us are. It can also mean that your body is fighting toxic overload. Particularly if you suffer headaches or stomach upset simply from scents, this may be the case.
3.  MUSCLE ACHES AND PAINS.

4. CONSTIPATION
        The intestine get rid of a lot of toxins every day of our lives. When we are constipated, we are storing up all those toxins, allowing them to negatively affect our bodies. In addition to stomach upset, constipation can cause headaches, achnes and pains, and tiredness. It can can also be related to toxins in your life. Especially if you are consuming a lot of processed foods filled with chemicals, pesticides, and preservatives.
5. BAD BREATH.

SOURCES OF HAZARDOUS TOXINS

Here are some toxins not in other of importance that need to be reduced significantly in your diet.

   1. CAFFEINE.

        Caffeine is a substance that is found in certain plants. It can also be man made and added to foods. It is a central nervous system stimulant and a diuretic (substance that helps rid body of fluids). Caffeine is widely consumed. It is found naturally in the leaves, seeds, and fruits of more than 60 plants, including

 * Tea leaves

*  kolanuts

* Coffee

* Cocoa beans.

       It is also found in processed foods

* Coffee

* Tea

* Chocolate

* Candies, energy drinks, snacks, gum etc.

       It is best to decrease drastically the amount of caffeine consumed. Many people have to be weaned off caffeine slowly because they are so addicted. If they stop, they may experience withdrawal  symptoms, including headaches.

    One of the dangers of caffeine is that it overstimulates and may eventually weaken your adrenal glands--- two small glands that sit above the kidneys. They are important because they control your"fight or flight" response -your ability to handle stress. Overtime, your adrenal glands may become exhausted, and you may then suffer from chronic fatigue.

    Caffeine can also interfere with the proper absorption of vitamin and mineral. That is why it not good to take vitamins with coffee.

  Another danger of caffeine is that it can increase heart rate and, in some people , cause an irregular rapid heartbeat (arrhythmial). Other side effects of caffeine are anxiety, depression, difficulty sleeping, nausea, restlessness more often and vomiting.

  Note: Stopping caffeine suddenly may cause withdrawal symptoms. These may include:

 * Drowsiness

* Headache

* Irritability

* M7GBCMNausea

* Vomiting.

      There has been much research on health effects of caffeine.

          Large amounts of caffeine may stop the absorption of calcium and cause lead thinning bones (osteoporosis). Caffeine may lead to painful, lumpy breasts ( fibrocystic diseases).

    Caffeine may harm a child's nutrition if drinks with caffeine replace healthy drinks such as milk. Caffeine cuts down on appetite so a child who consumes caffeine may eat less.

2.TRANS FATS.

       Trans fats are hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated fats. Hydrogenation is a process that makes an unsaturated fat more saturated. Hydrogenated fats can be find in margarine, field foods, most breads and baked goods, snack, foods , many packed foods, chocolate as saturated fat, and they are implicated in heart diseases and cancer.

   To determine whether you are have been eating these dangerous fats, read the nutrition labels you buy. Trans fats can be found on a "nutritional" labels under the name "hydrogenated" or "partially hydrogenated" soya beans. These deadly oils are found in nearly all margarine, breads and baked goods, as well as many other processed food found in most supermarkets.

   Be warned gently, yet sternly, these fats are killers.

      Each of us has trillions of cells, and each cell membrane. Overtime, a a continued intake of trans fats will allow them to be incorporated into the membranes , causing problems with cellular metabolism and permitting toxins to enters the cell, A, E, D and K which are soluble fat.

   This is not to go totally against fat. In fact, the average body is made up of about 20-30  percent fat including our cell membranes and the hormones we produce and we need fat to survive. That is why anybody who says, "Avoid all fats" is misleading. There are good fats such as omega -3 fats.

3. ADDITIVES.

      What are additives? These are food substances added to food to preserve flavor or enhance its taste and appearance . Food additives has been used for centuries to enhance the appearance and flavor of food and prolong shelf life. But do these food additives really add any value to your food?

   Food additives find their way into our foods to help ease processing, packaging and storage . But how do we knpw what food additives is in macaroni and cheese and why does itb have a such long shelf life? 

    Here is a list of the top food additives to avoid.

* Common food dyes

       Studies show that artificial colorings which are found in soda, fruit juices and salad dressings, may contribute to behavioral problems in children and lead to significant reduction in IQ. other studies have linked other food coloring to cancer.

* MONOSODIUM GLUTAMATE ( MSG).

    MSG  is used as a flavor enhancer in soups, salad dressings, chips and many restaurant foods. Msg is know as an excitotoxin, a substance which over excites cells to the point of damage or death. Studies show that regular consumption of msg may result in adverse effects which include depression, disorientation, eye damage, fatigue, headaches, and obesity.

  Msg affects the neurological pathways of the brain and disengage the "I'm full " function which explains the effects of weight gain.

3. ARTIFICIAL SWWETENERS.

      More popularly know as NutraSweet is found in foods "labelled diet" or "sugar free". Nutrasweet is made up of methanol and amino acids phenylamine. Nutrasweet is believed to be carcinogenic and accounts for more reports of adverse reactions than all other food and food additives combined. Nutrasweet is not your friend. It is a neurotoxins and carcinogenic. Known to erode intelligence and affect short term memory, the components of this toxic sweetner may lead to a wide variety of ailments including brain tumor, diseses like lymphona ( cancer of the lymph nodes), diabetes, muiltiple sclerosis, parkinsons , alzheimers, fibromyalgia, and chronic emotional disorders like depression and anxiety attacks, dizziness, headaches, nausea, mental confusion, margraines and seizures.

   Acasulfame k, a relatively new artificial sweetener found in baking goods, gum and gelatin, has not been thoroughly tested and has been linked to kidney tumor. It is found in diet, or sugar free sodas, diet coke, coke zero, sugar free gum, baking goods, table top sweeteners, cereal, ice tea, chewable vitamins, toothpaste.

4. HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP.

      High fructose corn syrup(HFCS) is a highly refined artificial sweetener which has become the number one source of calories. It is found in all almost all processed foods. HFCS pack on the pound faster than any other ingredients increase your bad cholesterol levels and contributes to the development of diabetes and tissue damage, among other harmful effects found in most processed foods, breads , candy, flavored yogurts, salad dressing, canned vegetables, cereals etc.

5. DRUGS AND MEDICINES.

      We should be aware of the effect multiple medicines have on our bodies. Medicines are broken down in the liver- the great detoxifier.

     What happens when we are flooded with pharmaceutical  medications, they may overwhelm our liver and may leave toxic intermediates circulating in our blood. If you are on multiple medications, it is important to switch over gradually from prescription to minerals, vitamins, amino acids and herbs. These are goods for the body and rarely ever toxic to the body.

How The Body Handles Toxis

Our amazing body gets rid of unwanted toxins through the colon, through our respiratory system, via perspiration, through the urinary tract, through the liver etc.

  Here is how these systems are working on our behalf.

1.The Colon

            The primary method our body uses for eliminating toxins is through the colon. After being ingested and absorbed, the toxins first circulate in the blood, then go to the liver where they're detoxified. The waste products are dumped into the bile, then into the small intestines, then into the large intestine and finally excreted. Its vital that our colon is functioning properly. for many however that's not the case.

   According to DR JOHN HARVEY, 90 percent of all diseases were due to improper functioning of the colon primary constipation. The lower end of the intestine is of the size that requires emptying every six hours. But by habit we retain its contents for twenty four ours. The result is ulcers and cancer. In the early days there are cereals which are filled with colon cleaning fiber. Overtime, however, processing methods have reduced fiber content drastically.

    If we become constipated, overtime the waste in the colon is going to start putrefying, rotting and producing gas and toxins that will be absorbed into the blood. It can resulted to severe body odour because the toxins are usually being excreted through the skin because the colon was clogged.

  To get rid of the toxins in your colon, you can take greenlife detoxifying capsule.

2. Your Respiratory System

        Another way our body clears toxins is through our respiratory system by creating mucus for example, when a person has "running nose" or is coughing mucus from the back of his throat, he is usually excreting toxins. Yet, it may be an upper respiratory infection or an allergy.

    Our lungs usually exposed to environmental toxins more than any other organ. From cigarette smoke to exhaust that you inhale from the car, you are been exposed to fumes, smoke and other airborne toxins everyday.

   Other cells along the respiratory tract contain cilia, which are hairlike projections that beat about a thousand times a minute. This helps to remove particle and toxins from the lungs. Smoking tends to paralyzed these cilia, making it difficult to expel the mucus and causing the characteristic "smoke cough". Some people do not produce enough mucus possibly due to inadequate water intake, and thus are more prone to infections. The lungs also have antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, glutathione and catalase, which quench free radicals.

3.  The Kidneys

          The kidneys help to eliminate toxins and foreign chemicals from the body. Your kidneys main function is to act as a filtration system for your blood and to remove or eliminate toxins to the bladder, where they are later removed from the body during urination.

    The blood flow to the kidney is higher than the one that flows to the brain, heart or liver. They receive 25 percent of the body's total blood volume, thus causing them to have a high exposure to chemicals and toxins in the blood. The best way to detoxify the kidneys is to drink adequate water.

4.   The Liver

             The liver is a vital organ and is actual fact, the largest internal organ in the human body. It has a variety of roles, including the removal of toxins and the production of chemicals needed for digestion and as a result, it plays a strong role in our metabolism especially, it is the body's main fat burning organ and its detoxification process help us to feel fresh and energized.
