Do you suffer from excess weight, joint pain, headaches, acne, food allergies, depression, insomnia, fatigue? If so, it could be that your body is out of balance and suffering from toxic overload.
Your weight gain and belly fat can be linked to toxins in your liver. The liver has two important functions. It not only detoxifies your blood, but also metabolizes fat. When the liver becomes overworked and fatty, we begin gaining weight and experience other health issues.
Dr. Paula Baillie-Hamilton states that the root cause of all weight gain is directly related to our own natural weight control system being overloaded and poisoned with toxic chemicals that we come in contact through our skin care, food, cleaning products and general environment. In her book, The Detox Diet –Eliminate Chemical Calories and Enhance Your Natural Slimming System, Dr Baillie-Hamilton writes about the link between the current fat epidemic and toxic synthetic chemicals.
Supporting your main detoxification organs, the liver, colon and kidneys, is a healthy and natural way to help your body get rid of harmful toxins and therefore help lose weight.
