Health Talk - Toxicity

Hi All, Just a few thoughts about toxicity.  My definition is an accumulation of waste products in the cells, extra cellular, or blood of the body.  First, what are these waste products?  They vary in type from normal metabolic waste to extremes like heavy metal poisoning or medication toxicity.  Some of the common symptoms or toxicity are:

  1. Skin rashes, itching, and general irritation.
  2. Changes in function of bowels, constipation or diarrhea.
  3. Digestive Changes, food feels like it just lays in the Stomach.  Gas, belching, or Flatulence.
  4. Mood changes, irritability, frustration, excessive sensitivity.
  5. Fatigue.  Especially when you awaken in the morning feeling as tired as when you went to bed.
  6. Functional organ changes such as increased or decreased heart rate, shortness of breath, anemia, purpura, bruising from minor injuries.

Any and all of the above symptoms can and will create a problem with diagnosis of any specific nature.  The solution to toxicity can be simple or complex depending on the cause or causes.  Hope this helps guide some of the folks to the proper approach.

Stay healthy, happy and wise, all else will come.
