Selling the Alternative Medicine Health Detoxification Therapy
The word detoxification is getting a hang on everybody's health agenda, and I wonder why. Americans are facing better lives ever since the inception of the vaccine and the method of purifying water with chlorine. Yes, the world is getting filthier, but that is due to human volume in proportion to a geographic space. Besides, while some areas are getting polluted, others are kept very clean. Smoke emission controls are now in place and governments are placing better restrictions with smoking in general public. Victual businesses are now under better government control. The world is facing a better health; Americans are facing better health than most places in the whole world. Yet people still see the need for alternative medicine health detoxification therapy.
The selling factor is "toxins", however badly miscued the term is. The fact is, toxins as appropriated by alternative medicine promoters is largely nonexistent, simply because the body gets rid of these "toxins", these creatinine and urea very efficiently. And if the body doesn't, it will be the first to let you know. Your body gets sick immediately.
Even then, most people still felt the need for detoxification. They just have to do something, to aid the body in ridding toxins beyond the 100% assurance. So here are the do's and don'ts as well as the fact and fiction of alternative medicine health detoxification therapy. I hope it will guide you.
First, let's tackle about the said toxins. Creatinine and urea are the waste products normally found excreted in the body, so it's safe to assume these are the alternative promoter's toxins. One good way of effectively eliminating these is drinking ample volume of clear water, around 1.5 - 2 liters a day for an average individual. This gets your bladder running and yes, your urea expelled. Having a good portion of fiber in your diet also helps in hastening your bowel movement, which is another "toxin" for yet another kind of detoxification. Good water intake plus a daily consumption of fiber (of course along with other food products like carbohydrates and protein) gets your digestive system running so smoothly that you'd look healthier than the promoters of alternative medicine health detoxification therapy.
It's been noted the Aqua Chi Detox and its spin offs could not be so effective. You can do well by avoiding it as alternative medicine health detoxification therapy. There is no detoxification in the foot -simply because the foot isn't equipped physically for that function. If you want to know, the skin in the foot is several micro millimeters thicker than on other areas, so if there should be a detoxification, it should occur near the head or neck or better yet, the buttocks.
Invasive procedures like the colon irrigation can do more harm than good, its best to steer clear of such alternative medicine health detoxification therapy. There have been several accounts of fatality due to heart failure because of water intruding the vital organs.
