Dealing with toxins.



The information provided below I took from a webinar I was on last night about essential oils and weight loss.  I thought it was worth sharing.

DEALING WITH OUR TOXIN-FILLED WORLD

Did you know that Americans now spend between 80-90% of their time inside, and that the average American home contains over 63 hazardous products?  From antiperspirants to perfumes to “air fresheners”, we have been unknowingly ingesting tons of chemical compounds that our body is unequipped to deal with. And we trust it bc it’s sold at the store.

In recent years we have seen a dramatic rise in birth defects, infertility, asthma, ADD, Alzheimer’s disease, and countless other illnesses and conditions. We breathe in chemical vapors from our household cleaners, we absorb chemicals into our skin as we shower and brush our teeth. Check your toothpaste! If it says to call poison control for swallowing, that’s not a good sign!

Seventy-five percent of American homes use synthetic air fresheners that contain numerous amounts of chemical agents that have been linked to cancer. Formaldehyde is in air fresheners. When you see the term ‘fragrance’ remember that it can include up to 300 toxic chemicals and just say ‘fragrance’! The olfactory nerve is a pathway to the brain, which when it is being hit with formaldehyde, it will disrupt the endocrine system. It actually deadens that nerve, which decreases your nose from being able to smell as well. Formaldehyde is the #1 cancer causing chemical and is what you are embalmed with at the morgue.

SO WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH WEIGHT MANAGEMENT? 

When petrochemicals (from toxins through food, air fresheners, shampoo, body care products, etc.) are exposed to the body, naturally the body produces fat cells to trap the toxins to protect vital organs. This is the body's way of protecting itself. Ever wonder why some people still have cellulite no matter how much they diet and exercise? Toxins are still trapped in the fat cells. I'll talk more about this later with the Petrochemical Weight Loss Protocol. 

But that's not all. Think again of how your sense of smell is tied to the limbic system of your brain. You smell air fresheners, perfumes, etc. - all synthetic fragrances that could alter your brain's satiety center. 

In light of the above, I will be publishing to my blog recipes for natural products to replace those that are filled with toxins.  If you have a recipe that you would like to submit, please email it to me at cindyzahn@gmail.com and I will publish it on my blog and give you credit for it, if you so desire.

PETROCHEMICAL WEIGHT LOSS DETOX

How would you like to drop inches in less than a month? How would you like to do it without dieting? This recipe and protocol was created by Tiffany Rowan of PetrochemicalWeightloss.com. You'll need 3 bottles of Citrus Fresh - one for each week (which will cover hips and stomach - to cover thighs and arms too then account for 2 bottles per week for 3 weeks). Add 10 drops of Ledum essential oil in each bottle of Citrus Fresh. The secret is saturation. Apply it like a layer of lotion, and apply morning and night everyday for 3 weeks. The average person is able to lose inches in less than a month with this protocol. The protocol is cost effective, quick and safe working with the body’s natural physiology. WHY IT WORKS? The body’s natural physiology produces fat to encapsulate toxins. The more toxins we accumulate, the more our body produces fat cells to trap the toxins in an attempt to keep them from traveling to our brain, heart and lungs. The more toxins we acc...

Historical Use of Essential Oils Essential oils have been used globally for centuries and are considered to be some of the first medicines ever used. They have been used in religious rituals, with treatment for various illnesses, and to overcome many physicial, spiritual, and emotional issues. Research dates the use of essential oils back to 4500 BC. Ancient Egyptians were the first to discover the potential of fragrance, and records demonstrate that oils and aromatics were used for treating illness and performing rituals and religious ceremonies in temples and pyramids. In fact, three oils that are still commonly used today—cedarwood, myrrh, and frankincense—were used in the embalming process. According to ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics and Chinese manuscripts, priests and physicians used oils thousand of years before the time of Christ. There are more than 188 references to oils in the Bible, and some precious oils like frankincense, myrrh, rosemary, cassia, and ...

Through clinical research, scientists have discovered that essential oils quickly raise the frequency in the human body thus restoring it to its normal healthy level.
