Importance of Detoxification for Chronic Disease
Due to the enormous amount of
chemicals that we face each day, it may be beneficial to cleanse your system
periodically. Patients who are on
numerous medications should also consider detoxification due to the toxic
load on the liver that comes with pharmaceuticals. For light detox therapies, an Epsom salt bath, increased
consumption of water or detoxifying teas can be beneficial. Massage therapy is also helpful in
releasing toxins from your soft tissues and
joints. By working the muscle areas
with intense massage, toxins are released from the muscles and joints. Chelating
agents are also very helpful in the removal of heavy metals and other toxins
and are designed to improve the circulation.
EDTA is a binding agent found in many IV
chelation therapies, and works by
binding with toxic heavy metal concentrations in the body's tissues and
removing them. Oral chelators are
also available without a prescription and are more convenient to use. Chlorella is a natural detox agent used to
prepare patients prior to chelation. Some detox protocols
include low temperature sauna
therapy where patients sit in a sauna for 90 minutes at
115° F. Heat liquefies fat-soluble
toxins and assist in excreting them out through the skin
pores. This low temperature sauna
therapy is usually well handled by patients with heat
intolerances and may be used in conjunction with Niacin and choline
supplements to increase the flush of toxins.
Sauna
therapy is also beneficial for the skin, eases joint pain
and stiffness, improves the immune system, reduces stress and fatigue and
increases blood circulation while strengthening the cardiovascular system. |
