Can someone please explain to me, thoroughly, how exactly toxins build up in my body?
Where/why/how does my body store toxins?
What are they, exactly?
etc.
Basically it works like this.
A lot of the minerals and compounds which you eat end up in the blood.
So do some of the compounds in the air, gound and water etc, because they are absorbed through the lungs and the skin.
Your blood passes through your kidneys and they try to filter out what you don't need and flush it out with your next wiz. They do a very good job of this but unfortunately, some things which you really don't want or need, are not flushed because your kidneys can't filter them out for a number of reasons.
e.g. they can't filter lead compounds out of the body and therefore lead is cumulative, as are most heavy metals.
There are heaps of these materials which we don't want in us and because they are cumulative, they build up over your entire lifetime. They are generally stored in the fat but also contaminate your body cells.
Sooooo, when you are young they are in small amount and thus you are entitled to think that the whole philosophy is all a load of horse feathers because you feel just great, so what's the problem?.
Unfortunately, as you get older, the amounts build up to the extent that they begin to have a bad effect on you health.
Because the symptoms come on very slowly over a very long time it is easy to dismiss them as just being a consequence of old age. i.e old people just naturally have bad health.
Well, that's not entirely true. Old people can still have very good health so long as they are not half poisoned by a lifetime's accumulation of toxic waste, as most old people are in modern society.
The easiest way to get rid of this buildup is to get the kidneys to recognise compounds that the body doesnt want and to be able to filter them out.
Chelation does just that. It is an infusion of EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetate, spelling?) which bonds to the toxic compounds and is then recognised by the kidneys and filtered out and flushed.
EDTA is itsef toxic but since it is able to be flushed by the kidneys within 24 hours, it is not cumulative and in small doses does not present a problem.
All these other processes such as oil pulling are a very dubious solution to the problem and in my opinion, are all snake oil.
Chelation is the accepted treatment for lead poisoning and heavy metal poisoning. I believe it has much wider benefits, and so do many others.
It is now very widely used worldwide.
