This Summer’s Feature Article:

Detoxify For Life!

We know that you’ve worked hard all spring to get in tip-top shape for summer. You’ve shed those extra pounds, trimmed your hair to help beat the summer heat and your wardrobe is merely a slim memory of what it was during those cold winter months. In so many ways, you’ve lightened your load for the dog days of summer. Heck, even your barbecues feature pesticide-free veggies and hormone-free chicken. You practically have a spring in your step, you’re feeling so light these days!

Since you’re already in the swing of lightening things up, then it’s time to take it one step further and lighten up your toxic load. Click here to read our feature article, Detoxify For Life!, and find out why the need to detoxify is so great. You’ll also learn about our five favorite detoxification methods, including far infrared sauna, chelation therapy, Body Cleanse™, lymphatic therapy and the Heel Detox-Kit™.

Here’s just a preview of what you’ll find in the article:
    “Every year more than 24 billion pounds of toxic substances are released into the environment, only a fraction of which have been tested for safety or how they interact with each other… Toxic substances find a way into our bodies through the air that we breathe, the foods that we eat, the water that we drink, and the products that we use to clean and beautify our bodies and our homes.

    Think that you’re immune? A study conducted by the Mt. Sinai School of Medicine in 2003 says differently. Study researchers tested 211 volunteers for a range of possible contaminants and found an average of 91 pollutants in the volunteers’ blood samples. Of those 91 pollutants, an average of 53 were known carcinogens including PCBs, dioxins, phthalates, insecticides, pesticides and heavy metals. The group of volunteers included individuals who lived in a rural coastal community and had eaten organic foods for over 30 years.”


In The News: Stress May Ruin Your Teeth And Gums

A new study finds that there is a strong relationship between periodontal disease and psychological problems, such as stress, anxiety, depression and loneliness. The report, published in the August issue of the Journal of Periodontology (JOP), said minimizing stress could ultimately lead to healthier gums and teeth. Researchers speculate that the hormone cortisol, which is released by the body during stress, may play a role in the connection between mental health and periodontal disease. A study in the July issue of the JOP found that increased levels of cortisol can lead to increased destruction of the gums and jaw bone due to periodontal diseases. Periodontal diseases, left untreated, can ultimately lead to bone loss or tooth loss.
