Research on Detox -Can you help?

[Guest guest]

Hi

 

I am wonder if anyone here can help me with some research I am doing

on on detox? (i.e. general body detox, not drug detox)

 

I want to know what people are wanting out of detox? What is the main

thing you would want to do detox for? (eg do you want to loose weight,

feel better, get better skin, have more energy or other reasons)

 

Many thanks

IMHO, our reasons for a specific detox are ledgion, subjective, and individual.

Nevertheless, the question intrigued me, because it helps me clarify my own

reasons for using the tool of a particular detox. I became familiar with this

term and usage in the 70's, so maybe this continues to condition my own reasons

for seasonal detoxes and for particular detox sessions and methods.

..

The main reason I detox is to return my body, as much as possible to a state of

inner balance within it's many complex and mysterious systems of balance,

wherein it can naturally go about it's DNA's purpose of evolution with the least

amount of interference from what I have eaten, absorbed, breathed or hyponotized

myself into inappropriately. There is a world of poo-poo in my head and in my

world that directly challenges the best efforts of my valient body's efforts to

keep me healthy, sane and all systems functioning efficiently. Neither our

best collective sciences or my own intentions of wisdom can prevent most of this

pollution, or even understand our own body's many checks and balances built-in

to help us deal with it. Each culture and timeframe have many partial solutions

to this, spiritual and physical. Detoxing is a major method for all cultures

and all time frames.

 

The methods I use most successfully are fasting, juicing, enemas, special

methods of nutritional intake, lots of water, and certain supplements and

chelating techniques. I usually like to create a period of detox after the

heavy indulgences of the Holidays. If I have an injury or hospitalization, I

create a period of detox to rid myself on many levels of the toxins of that

experience. If I have a great loss, and a period of grief, I need a detox

period. Seasonally, I use a small detox to help my body prevent unbalance, and

keep my immune system strong and my spirits valient and young-at-heart.

 

The details are less important (for what I use specifically) than the

encouragement to find and use your own methods that work for you. And be

willing to let them evolve as you evolve. What you used in your 20's may not be

as appropriate or effective in your 50's. Though some never seem to change, at

least for me.

 

I hope this is not too vague to be useful. Norma Pirie

My mother died of bowel cancer about 11 years ago. I was only about

30 years old and was starting to suffer from all sorts of health

problems - small in reality, but I could see how they could get worse

over the years.

 

I began to worry that I would end up like my mother - dying relatively

young from a horrible - and I'm convinced - preventable illness.

 

This led me to try colonic irrigation and the therapist began my

education in 'alternative' health.

 

Ever since, I have been learning and doing more. My belief - based on

what I've learned - is that one needs to focus on detoxing the bowel

and liver so that they in turn can keep do their proper jobs, which is

to keep the body healthy and free from toxins too.

 

Much like Norma, my methods include juicing/fasting, enemas,

supplements, and dietary control.

 

My original goal was to not get bowel cancer, but as my health

improved all around, I have done it for this reason. Losing weight,

nice skin, etc. has been a nice to have, but not my primary goal.

 

Hope that helps

Regards
