A slew of evidence links chemical toxins to higher
diabetes risk. Toxins disrupt the smooth functioning
of your metabolism, so minimize your exposure
to toxic substances and strengthen your liver to
help heal your diabetes. Heres how
Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) from the environment
accumulate in body tissues, stressing the
liver as it tries to eliminate them, causing cell mutations
(cancer), disrupting the endocrine system (that
includes all hormones, blood sugar metabolism and
the reproductive system), and depressing your immunity,
which leaves you vulnerable to infections,
disease and cancer. POPs are in our water, air and
household cleaners. Theyre in body care products
such as shampoo and lotion. And theyre present
in our foods, plus their packaging and processing.
You cant escape these ever-present toxic chemicals,
but you can reduce your danger by changing your
purchasing habits. More importantly, you can help
the bodys elimination system rid your bloodstream
and fat tissues of toxins accumulated over time.
By eliminating processed foods and factory-farm
feedlot meats, you remove a major source of toxic
chemicals from your life.
Loading up on vegetables, fruits, beans and whole
grains provides extraordinary support to your digestive
system including your liver in clearing toxins from
your body because they adds load of fiber fiber which
binds to wastes and moves them out of your system.
Daily exercise stimulates your respiratory system
heart, lungs and breathingall natural detoxifiers! As
you lose weight, you shed the fat that stores toxins.
Quit sugary drinks and replace them with water so you
can flush your body with one of lifes greatest detoxifiers:
pure water, the best choice for washing away impurities.
BUT DONT TRY A DETOX DIET!
I dont recommend fad detox cleansing diets and
fasting regimens because they dramatically disturb
metabolismand may even do long-term damage.
People with diabetes need a steady source of nutrients
to support blood sugar, so avoid these quickie fixes.
Its essential for you to reject any dietary protocol that
could overstress your bodys metabolism. Instead, keep
eating the Diabetes Healing Superfoods and eliminate
as many of the toxins in your diet and environment
that you can find....youll enjoy a safe, natural and
nourishing detox without jeopardizing your health!
