A hundred years ago, we didn’t worry about pollution, pesticides in our food, or environmental contaminants. However, people were vulnerable to serious diseases, which, fortunately, modern medicine has since eliminated. Polio, diphtheria, malaria and tuberculosis are no longer a concern in modern American society. These ailments have now been replaced with more subtle threats, ones with effects which might not be detected for decades into the future. Accumulations of pesticides, hormones, antibiotics and food additives are unknown quantities, but it only makes sense that these substances are unhealthy. Cleansing your body, from the inside out is a good idea, flushing these potential toxins from your system.
