Detoxification and cleansing protocols are growing increasingly popular. The basic premise behind them is that the body tends to accumulate more toxins living in our modern world than its natural detoxification system (liver, kidneys, lungs) can possibly get rid of. Research shows that chemicals from pesticides, chlorine, bleach, ammonia and carbon monoxide can build up over time and cause disease. Oddly enough, there is another critical reason for doing a healthy, doctor-supervised detoxification.. FOOD ADDICTIONS. None of us are strangers to this disease, as sugar and refined carbohydrates act like heroin or cocaine on our brain (opioid receptors). The food industry has messed with our taste buds, our brain chemistry and our metabolism and has helped to create a nation of people who are in some way addicted to refined sugars, carbohydrates and flour.
