Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being
and not merely the absence of disease and infirmity.
—World Health Organization
There are only 2 reasons why a person becomes ill:
There are only 2 reasons why a person becomes ill:
- We "catch" something. This means your body picked up a "germ," generally a virus or bacteria.
- We "develop" an illness or disease. This means there is some imbalance in the body, something is not working right, and an illness or disease develops. Common diseases in this category include heart disease, cancer, diabetes, acid reflux, arthritis, etc.
So we catch "something" and our body cannot fight it off, therefore we give way to the "germs" or our bodies develop something in the genetically weak areas.
In both of the above cases the causes are the same:
A) . Your immune system is weak .
B). Toxins are attacking your body.
What it boils down to is that we either A) have too many toxins in our body, B) we have nutritional deficiencies or C) we have trapped mental/emotional stress.
That is the root cause of illness!
In some cases we may be negatively affected by electromagnetic chaos (smart meters, etc).
So what are toxins?
Toxins are harmful agents found in the environment. Their is a list that was put together by Dr. Don Smith, a professor at UC Santa Cruz which contains hundreds of names — 689 to be exact — most popular among them being the mercury we find in fish, the azodicarbonamide we find in yoga mats (and Subway sandwich bread), and bisphenol A, or BPA, the highly controversial compound found in consumer plastics - just to name a few.
Our ability to remove them from our bodies depends on things like iron levels and calcium levels, and how clean (or dirty) our colons are. According to Dr. Smith "Losing weight may happen while you’re huffing and puffing, but toxin removal only comes through flushing your body’s system. "
So what do we do with this knowledge?
A great place to start is by detoxifying your body. How to accomplish this will be different for each individual. It would be best for you to get some personalized advice from a NATURAL health practitioner (someone who doesn't believe that pharmaceuticals and cutting off limbs is the best approach).
Some common detoxes are: specific diets, fasting, colonic therapy, liver detox, etc.
The next major thing to consider is your lifestyle.
The next major thing to consider is your lifestyle.
Are you getting 7-8 hours sleep per night?
(If not, how is your body supposed to be able to heal and repair? )
Are you spending most of your days stressed out?
(Stress = toxins because your body becomes acidic.)
Are you getting regular cardiovascular exercise?
( If not, how is fresh blood and oxygen supposed to get to all your organs?)
Are you making time to unwind, relax, feel good?
(If not, how are you supposed to relax and reduce stress levels?)

lovely post. Healthy lifestyle is very important to make yourself fit and healthy.
Sooo good! I love how simply you put it. Totally resonates as truth for me. Detox is something I think everyone should think more about and make a part of their lives. : )
Thanks! we appreciate the support!
Good article . Detox process is something that if was apart of everyone's life some doctors would probably be without a job . Detox in moderation has benefits . But like anything to much is bad mineral deficiencies such as this .
I think todays doctor's have a role and are brilliant for when we: break our leg, cut ourselves badly, etc but definitely not for getting to the root of disease with their symptom-based approach..
This is a very good perspective! This article is good for understanding the basic causes of our bad health and bad moods. When I worked a 9-5 job in an office I was ill all the time. As soon as I let go of a lifestile that didn't ssuit me it all got better. Congratulations, great post!
I can totally relate! I had an office job that was sucking all me energy. I didn't understand at the time but being in a 10' x 15' room with a dozen computers and wireless phones was killing me! Congrats on sorting out your lifestyle! : )

We often focus on the pathogen and forget about the fact that many people "catch" pathogens and are asymptomatic.
Focus on strengthening the host (building your immune system) is key.
Yes, absolutely! : )
PS, great username!

The secret is a delicate balance...healthy mind to have a healthy body!
Yes, many people focus to much on trying one thing (a magic bullet) but would be better to see a bigger picture and go for balance.
Absolutely agree!

Germs don't cause disease, disease causes germs! If you haven't, search the great Pasture/BeChamp debate...
Interesting theory @sheepdog and I'll check out the argument but you can do a simple test. Go to Mexico, drink only bottled water for 3 first days, then drink 1 glass of tap water each day for 3 days and see what happens!
Interesting questions...thanks for the heads up.
You're welcome! Next article is about acid/alkaline balance : )
