- how you can detox your body without the symptoms and provide daily support to your detoxification organs for their optimal functioning;
- what a toxin actually is, how you can avoid toxins in everyday products and if you are having a toxin such as alcohol, which are the best types to have for the least toxic load; and
- the different forms of specific cleansing and detox programs so you can decide which would be best for you.

4. OUR BODIES PERFORM 2
MAIN FUNCTIONS
CLEANSING & DRAINING: (CATABOLIC FUNCTIONS)
Dislodging, breaking down and moving toxic material through the
body and out through elimination channels.
Liver = major centre of detoxification
Kidneys, Bowels, Skin, and Lungs (urination, excretion, sweat and
breath)
BUILDING & HEALING (ANABOLIC FUNCTIONS):
Constant repair and upkeep of our body.
5. WHAT IS A TOXIN?
Anything that is poisonous or causes damage or death to an
organism.
External toxins: put stress on our organs to eliminate those
chemicals.
Internal toxins: metabolic by-products from bad digestion
Free radicals - occur naturally (aerobic exercise)
6. COMMON TOXINS
Alcohol - especially methanol
Smoking
Pharmaceutical drugs - adverse drug reactions (ADR) cause 10,000 deaths in UK each year
Non-organic food - Agricultural Pesticides/Insecticides and Intensively Farmed Meat
Trans-fats
Refined sugar
Xenoestrogens - cleaning chemicals, beauty products, plastics
Environmental toxins - Dubai industrial pollutants (dioxins and heavy metals), construction/air
conditioning.
Stress!
7. WHY DO WE NEED TO
DETOX?
Purification and cleansing has been used for centuries
(lent/ramadan).
Today we are exposed to toxins our ancestors would not
have come across - especially in city-living.
Body overloaded with toxins > natural detoxification process
less efficient > toxins accumulate > havoc on the system >
allergies, PMS, indigestion, water retention, skin problems,
headaches or simply feel a bit ‘bleugh’!
8. EVERYDAY PREVENTION
Foods high in antioxidants to fight free radicals
Turmeric, green tea, wheat grass, grapes, raw cacao and berries -
reverse cellular damage.
Vitamin C and E and Carotenoids (orange fruit/veg and dark leafy
greens).
Liver assistants:
Brassicas (Broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, kale, brussel sprouts -
especially germinated seed), Turmeric, Rosemary, Milk Thistle,
onion, garlic, chilli, clove, dill, lemon, foods high in zinc and its C, B1
and B6.
10. CHOOSING DETOX
PROGRAMS
Puritanical no-pain no-gain! Crash diets for weight loss?
Importance of pre- and post-detox: Rebalance, Nourish &
Rejuvenate
A true detox = removes stressors > detoxification organs
can do job effectively and efficiently to bring everything back
into balance.
