How Toxins Affect Your Energy Health

It is nearly impossible to free your body of toxins because they are everywhere. Toxins can be found in the air you breathe, the food you eat, and your body can even create toxins from too much stress. Even if you can not get rid of all the toxins in your body, it is still important to reduce the level of toxins so your health and energy will not suffer. Your body is designed to handle small level of toxins on a regular basis; when there are too much toxins in your body at once, your body will start to breakdown and you may suffer from health problems, such as headaches, fatigue, nausea, sickness and chronic diseases.

How to reduce toxins in your body

• Avoid processed food - processed food usually contain chemical preservatives and are low in nutrients.
• Avoid eating seafood that are from polluted areas such as the Gulf of Mexico. This area has high cases of paralytic shellfish poisoning due to the chemicals that are dumped into the shoreline from the Mississippi River.
• Do not smoke or drink - when a cigarette is burned, it contains over 4,000 chemical compounds, such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, nicotine, tar, hydrogen cyanide and ammonia. Alcohol is toxic to your body. Too much alcohol in your system can damage vital organs, such as the brain and liver.
• Eat more fruits, vegetables and whole food, avoid junk food.
• Stay away from big cities, larger cities usually have more toxins in the atmosphere due to industrial and car pollutions.
• Drink 6 to 8 cups of water per day to help flush toxins from your body.
