The body starts to rid itself of garbage. Some of this garbage is:
- excess bile in the liver and gallbladder
- sludge in the arteries, veins and capillaries
- masses that have been longstanding
- arthritic deposits in the joints
- irritating food preservatives and additives
- masses of fat and toxic-laden mucus
- stagnant and polluted water in the cells suspending the toxins
- poisons and harmful drugs, sleeping pills, aspirins
- accumulated and hardened (impacted) mucus in the colon
- antibodies and other substances built up in individual cells interfering with normal functioning
- unassimilated food components (especially fats and proteins)
- inorganic minerals, heavy metals, pesticides
- environmental pollution like chlorine; carbon dioxide build up in the lungs
- degenerating and dead cells
- yeast, fungi, and parasites
- etc.
When detoxification and elimination functions are working properly, the person is not aware that cleansing is taking place. This occurs when the LIVER, KIDNEY and COLON are strong and well supported nutritionally; when the person is EXERCISING ADEQUATELY, and when ENOUGH FLUID is being used to move toxic materials along quickly. However, when these conditions are not met, cleansing signs may be experienced.
