OUR BODIES DETOX NATURALLY
Our bodies are equipped with vital organs that act to constantly neutralize, filter, and transport wastes from the body. The lungs, liver, kidneys, blood, intestines, lymph system and skin work together to help keep us free from harmful elements.
The world today is abundant with toxins and our bodies work overtime to eliminate them. However it is difficult to keep up with our exposure to such materials as heavy metals, drug residue, pesticides, and petroleum based chemicals. We get them from the air we breathe, and ingest them by eating contaminated foods and water. We absorb them through the skin. When the body’s elimination system is overwhelmed, these toxins are stored deep in our tissues and continue to degrade our health.
NUTRITIONAL DRAINAGE PROVIDES A POWERFUL YET GENTLE CLEANSE
The concept of cleansing through diet has historically been a popular practice. It is evident that if one tries to detox the liver with herbal or other natural means, but continues to assault the organ with tobacco, alcohol, sweets, and processed foods, the remedy will fail. Emphasis on foods that act positively on various organs is the basis for healthy nutrition and helps the body’s inherent mechanism to drain toxins and repair damage to the vital system.
WHAT IS NEEDED FOR A DIET CLEANSE?
Eating organic or fresh foods alone may not be enough to affect the changes we want in our bodies. Many who think they are eating the correct foods and living a healthy lifestyle are not achieving the outcomes they desire. Some feel that their bodies have let them down. Or that food that foods are not as effective as people once believed.
HOMEOPATHY HAS ALWAYS SUPPORTED PROPER DIET IS ESSENTIAL FOR HEALING
In reality a person needs foods that are specific to who they are. A plan that is as individualized as they are. Metabolic Balance provides such a plan. A meal plan is developed for each participant taking into consideration his or her unique chemistry, inherited metabolism, health history, and even food preferences. The result is a plan that is not only suited for each person but is desirable. Participants are always surprised to see foods they already enjoy on their plan. But it is more than just the right foods. Portions and timing are an integral part of the program. Metabolic Balance provides a complete program to obtain the desired results.
Eating correct and proper foods enhances the results of alternative healing methods. Homeopathy, naturopathic medicine, Chinese and ayurvedic medicine, and other traditional healing methods that have supported nutritional drainage for better health.
Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843), the founder of homeopathy, recognized that a person’s life style, including food and drink, can contribute to disease. He felt that until life style was corrected, no medicines should be given. Life style changes might be enough to cure disease.
James Compton Burnett (1840-1901), a prominent British homeopath, recognized that a holistic approach was of more benefit than local treatment of the isolated diseased part: “We must act on the whole constitution in the same way we would direct our attention to the whole tree when it bears decayed fruit.” Burnett also understood the relationship of the over consumption of salt and sugar as contributing to diseases like cataracts, high blood pressure, and diabetes. A holistic approach includes health-promoting foods.
WHY METABOLIC BALANCE?
I have chosen metabolic balance® as a complementary modality to my practice. It respects the value of whole foods as a basis for not only weight management but improved health. Clinically metabolic balance® has been proven to help reduce cholesterol, triglycerides, blood sugar, and blood pressure. The program can bring additional helpful benefits. Clients testify that they feel better in many ways. For example, they are more relaxed, less foggy headed, aches and pains disappear, and sleep is improved. Many clients who have come for metabolic balance comment to me that their chiropractor has told them that their adjustments are holding longer. Other body workers tell their clients that they can feel that their tissue is different, there is less inflammation and tension.
Clients come to me for metabolic balance alone and others for homeopathy. Either modality works well. Together they complement one another to bring about faster healing. Sometimes at the end of a wellness assessment I suggest clients begin with metabolic balance.® Often metabolic balance is enough to resolve most of their complaints. What is left can be easily addressed with homeopathy and/or body work. What is more important is that metabolic balance gives one tools they can use for their life time.
