Throughout our lives we consume food that often does not move through the body very quickly. When we don't properly digest, the waste matter builds up in the digestive system clogging the cells, tissues and pathways there.
As we get older more of these toxins build up in the intestines. This waste gets baked (because your body is at 98.6) onto the intestinal wall. It is like a bag of food sitting in the sun at 98.6 degrees. You can image how gross that gets.
As a result of this bake on fermenting food you become acidic. The protective barrier of good bacteria is compromised by these toxins further preventing good digestion from occurring. Soon the intestines are clogged.
I have read the average 30 year old American can have 10-15 lbs of hardened fecal matter caked along the sides of their bowel. This has a direct effect on your weight and energy as well as your acid levels which will affect every organ in your body. The intestines have to keep the pathway clear.
In order to make room the waste gets absorbed into the intestinal walls and then into the cells of the body which are on the other side of the intestinal wall. The toxins enter the bloodstream and then the kidneys, liver and other organs resulting in more serious conditions. In order to remove the waste material from the cells of your organs you have to first remove the built up waste matter in your intestines.
This is why we cleanse, This is what this cleanse is all about. Getting the waste out of your intestines first and then as you get a clean digestive system the waste from the other cells can enter into this clean digestive system to be removed. It is a process. As you do this your pH levels will be back in balance.
In the Nourishing Foods Cleanse Jan14-18 we will be bring in lots of alkaline food that is easy to digest. I will guide you through testing you pH levels daily so you see exactly how your body is responding. When you want to manage something it helps to measure it.
