DETOX, THE IMMUNE SYSTEM, AND HEALTH GOALS:  ESSENTIAL KEYS TO ESTABLISHING A STRONG FOUNDATION FOR HEALTH IN 2024.

1/14/2024

0 Comments

 
     When struggling with health problems, one place to start is with laboratory tests to determine the amount of toxins that your liver, lungs, and kidneys are dealing with.  If you have a sinus condition you can’t shake, a rash that won’t go away, on-going digestive problems, fatigue – just to name a few – it could be a sign of toxin overload.  Our world has become severely toxic from a long list of plastics, chemicals, pesticides and more. 
 
     Many conventional doctors don’t see things this way and may not offer tests for heavy metals and other toxins, but many naturopathic physicians do.  Be sure to avoid over-the-counter detox regimens.  Some of them could actually be dangerous for people with certain medical conditions.  It’s important to work with a doctor who uses certified labs and does thorough testing before determining if the need for detox exists and the exact tests that the individual requires.
 
     Another essential is a well functioning immune system, which actually is an interconnected biological network.  It includes white blood cells, organs, tissues of the lymph system, such as the thymus, spleen, and tonsils, and the bone marrow.  Our health and well-being depends on keeping the immune system in balance – neither underperforming or overreacting.
 
     Establishing a solid foundation of health is an on-going, lifetime process that can be motivating and enjoyable.  The doctor reveals a simple daily practice based on easy-to-accomplish, step-by-step health goals
