Are Toxins Affecting Your Health?


Toxins can make you feel sluggish, tired, irritable and generally unwell. To find out if your health is being affected by toxins, ask yourself these questions:
• Are you often tired or lethargic?
• Do you regularly suffer from bloating, diarrhoea, constipation or other digestive disturbances?
• Do you get recurrent headaches?
• Are you regularly suffering from muscle aches and pains?
• Do poor short-term memory and concentration affect your ability to function at work?
• Do you have allergies or sensitivities?
• Do you suffer from depression, anxiety and/or mood swings?
If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, your body may be overburdened by toxicity.

Staying Healthy in a Toxic World
In our busy modern world, toxins are commonly encountered. Environmental toxins include heavy metals, pesticides, chemicals, food additives, drugs and pollutants, which are present in the air, water and food that we consume. Toxins do not only come from your external environment, they can also be generated internally by “unfriendly” bacteria, yeasts and parasites in your digestive system. Your body is an amazing machine which can eliminate all these toxins through many different pathways; however, excess toxic exposure can overburden this machine. If you are not feeling 100%, a detoxification program will help to reduce this toxic load from your body and put a spring back into your step. Ask us today about a safe and effective detoxification program which will help to remove the toxic load from your body.

It’s Time for a Spring Clean!
A natural detoxification program can be one of the most effective ways to rapidly improve the state of your health, as it will help clear toxins out of your body and leave you feeling healthy and energetic. However, detoxification is serious business and your safety and comfort during the process is important. Therefore, the best detox is a program done under the guidance and support of a qualified naturopath.

The Three Step Spring Clean
A good detox program should involve three major steps. First, you need to remove the “bad” bugs from your digestive system; and then replace the “bad” bugs with new “good” bugs (out with the old and in with the new)! Finally, you need to support and enhance your liver and kidneys capacity to remove waste from your body.

Dietary Tips
During your detox, it is really important to eat a healthy well balanced diet, preferably organic. Ask us today about the best diet for your individual requirements to ensure you are eating the right foods for your body in order to maximise the detoxification process.

The natural supplements used in this program are designed to support your body, detoxification and repair systems to function efficiently, without causing any undesirable side effects. I will get you feeling great again!
