Your Body is Like a Car or Household Appliance
It Needs Maintenance
If you could only have one car or one particular household appliance to last your entire lifetime, what good maintenance practices would you establish to make it last your whole life? More importantly, with the one and only body you will ever have, what maintenance practices are you implementing so that your body will stay optimally healthy through a long life?
Six Habits of Health
Question: Would you run your car with bleach, metal shavings, sand, soda-pop, or sugar in the gas tank, for years... knowing that the longer the engine ran with those damaging elements going through it, the more likely that serious, life-shortening engine damage would occur?
Answer: No you wouldn't. Yet people do that with their bodies. We need to continuously clean damaging elements out of our bodies. Next to burning the correct fuel, keeping toxins out of our body is the most important thing we can do to extend our health and longevity.
Everone needs to make a goal for maintaining a toxin-free body. It takes implementing wise lifestyle habits through all the seasons, twists, and turns of life to arrive in tact at the end of life with health still optimum
Internal cleanliness is not important for those whose decision making processes are focused primarily on the next few hours, days or weeks. That's why strategists who can correlate current actions to future consequences outlive non-strategists by decades.
Sanitation in food and water supplies and sanitation in having garbage, wastes, and contagion far away from living quarters is the single greatest health advancement that mankind has made in all of recorded history.
Sanitation put an end to devastating health plagues of past centuries. In point of fact, the practices of external cleanliness — having clean municipal water, garbage removal from living spaces, sewage treatment and the washing of food and hands have saved more lives than all the world’s doctors, medicines, hospitals and medical procedures combined.
Clean Blood is Like Clean Water - Essential to Optimal Health
External cleanliness enables internal cleanliness, which is the real goal.
Toxins (debris, pathogens, harmful chemicals, heavy metals, metabolic wastes, etc.) accumulate and take foothold in the human body over time. This toxicity must be regularly removed or health will be undermined.
Toxins suppress, impede or interfere with normal biological activities and damage our cells and tissues. The effect of toxins on our health is cumulative. It is paramount, therefore, to remove toxins from the body as quickly as possible after they enter the body so that inflammation, irritation, repeated damage, inhibited processes, high levels of internal stress end and healing and normal, healthy biology is enabled.
The bottom line is that unremoved toxins will stop you from having a long, productive, healthy, and quality type of life. They will destroy your health over time. Some of the health-reducing toxins that people have in their bodies include:
I'm becoming filled with toxins. Rather than thinking, my brain isn't working so good because I'm getting older, people should realize that they are starting to forget things because they have allowed their body to fill with toxic elements that are destroying brain cells and neuron connections.
This memory loss has a cause (toxicity) that can be reduced or eliminated.
We don't get senile, Alzheimer's or Dementia because of the number of years that have transpired since our birth but because of the toxins we have accmulated since birth. Brain tissue that has been poisoned by toxins can regain good function as we reduce the toxic load.
Newborn babies today can have toxic loads at birth that exceed the accumulated toxic load of old people of generations past. The reason is the high level of toxins in the food, water, air and toiletries today. The high toxic load of a young mother today means that those toxins will pass into the fetus from the mother's body. Although not yet proven, the environmental toxic load going into a fetus combined with toxins in early childhood vaccinations is what many people now believe to be the true cause of autism in children.
Panic attacks, especially agoraphobia (or sudden panic attacks in stores, malls, offices or when driving a car) are often considered to be a psychological disorder, but may actually be the result of chemical exposure.
In panic attacks, the body perceives a dangerous situation — that is really just an internal toxin — and the sympathetic nervous system signals the adrenals to secrete adrenaline to prepare for a fight or flight situation. The rush of adrenaline what is perceived as a feeling of panic.
When Iodine enters a cell, it immediately increases the rate of excretion of numerous toxic elements, including bromine, fluorine, mercury and lead. Bromine (bromide) and Fluorine (fluoride) cannot be removed by any other detoxifying or chelation techniques. Iodine is the only way to get these harmful elements out of the body.
It should be noted that bromine and fluorine will always concentrate in cells whenever there is insufficient Iodine to keep them out. Obviously, this is bad because, beyond a very tiny amount, Bromine and fluorine are toxic in all soft tissues of the body.
Iodine is almost always missing from the American soil and American food, so supplementing is a must for most people who want to stay optimally healthy. The average adult (160 pounds) needs 1 to 2 drops of Magnascent Iodine daily in order for his or her iodine level to not go down.
Choline is an under-supplied (it's deficient in 90 percent of Americans) nutrient that’s highly important for helping the liver to maintain its capabilities for detoxifying the body (the liver is the most important detoxifying organ of the body). Choline is also quintessential for keeping toxins out of the brain. People with low choline levels are more likely to develop fatty liver and other liver disorders, but far worse, they're more likely to develop Alzheimer's and Dementia.
Symptoms of choline deficiency (IE, increasing toxicity) may include:
Magnesium is critical to healthy in many ways (Magnesium ions regulate over 300 biochemical reactions in the body through their role as enzyme co-factors). Magnesium is highly involved in many detoxification pathways.
After Iodine, magnesium is next on the list in importance for enabling maximum cellular detoxification. It needs to always be available to one’s cells. Here's how magnesium works to detoxify the cells:
When our bodies are replete with magnesium we are much more protected from heavy metal deposition than without that magnesium, and we are also being protected from the development of associated neurological diseases.
Low levels of brain magnesium allow the deposition of heavy metals in the brain that heralds Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. It appears that the metals compete with magnesium for entry into the brain cells. If magnesium is low, metals gain access much more readily… There is also competition in the small intestine for absorption of minerals. If there is enough magnesium, aluminum won’t be absorbed.
”Magnesium deficiency is endemic in our modern world, with 70% of people estimated to be deficient in Magnesium. That’s why Magnesium supplementation comes right after Iodine supplementation as the most important factor for keeping an internally clean body.
There is as much as a 500-fold difference in the ability among individuals to detoxify the same chemicals or radiation as well in a person with ample magnesium as compared to one with very little magnesium. Deficiencies in magnesium greatly lower the body’s ability to detoxify and chelate heavy metals and radioactive particles.
So, simply put, if you’re low in magnesium, you will be high in toxins. Two great sources of Magnesium include Ace Ormus and Kona Deep Sea Minerals.
It's best to intake "magnesium", either as magnesium-rich foods or as supplements — multiple times a day not just once in the morning.
To most people, sulfur is merely the smell of rotten cabbage or eggs. Most people don’t think of sulfur when they think of being clean internally. The truth is, however, that sulfur deficiency can have a very big impact on the body’s ability to detoxify harmful chemicals. Here's how sulfur works to keep us clean internally:
The body has a limited ability to store excess sulfur. Unused sulfur is either used to make glutathione or sent out of the body via the urine. In other words, we need plenty of daily dietary sulfur intake to maintain adequate detoxification activity! These are some excellent sulfur sources:
Pathogens (parasites, pathogenic bacteria, mycoplasmas, fungi and viruses) cause untold suffering and deaths — despite antibiotics because pathogens have learned to live subversively, below the radar and have adapated to not die from modern anti-biotics.
Ask people who have experienced MRSA, black mold, Lyme’s bacteria, energy-sapping parasites, or acute influenza and cold viruses how much good medicines did for them? Many will tell you the medicines did almost nothing or gave more side-effects than benefits. Smart" pathogens make people's lives miserable across the globe unless you know the habits that can "outsmart" them.
*Note: even the common cold virus has a cost to the U.S. of 25 billion dollars annually in direct medical costs and lost productivity because medicines don't curtail the cold virus. The only thing that can really make a difference are safeguarding habits.
Thankfully, there is much that one can do preemptively via habits that essentially say to pathogens, "Not in my body, you won't". Keeping toxins and pathogens out of the human body is the last frontier in health. It is challenging because many pathogens (the most successful ones) try to “hide” quietly in our blood stream, tissues and intestines... escaping notice even with blood tests... and just making us miserable.
The key is having daily habits that help eradicate pathogens before they take up permanent residence in the body. Once pathogens change their status from having a visitor visa to being permanent residents, they camouflage themselves and release chemicals that suppress the immune system so that immune soldiers have a harder time to locate and kill them. Thankfully, when pathogens first enter our bodies, they are vulnerable and that's the time to fight them hard.
Here's the habits we recommend to help expel and destroy pathogens before they get "residence status":

Lymph is a colorless plasma (fluid) that constantly moves past the cells of the body and collects and transports one’s cellular garbage to organs in the body where the garbage can be taken out of the lymph and disposed. These garbage removal organs are the lymph nodes, liver and kidneys. The cleansed lymph fluid then goes back to the heart to become part of blood plasma and repeat the cycle of being pushed out to the cells to go collect more garbage. Lymph is so important to human health that it has a total volume in the body that is three times greater than the amount of blood residing in the circulatory veins, arteries and capillaries of the body.
The sewage carried by lymph away from the cells is comprised of the byproducts of cellular metabolism, as well as toxins in the food we have eaten, pesticides, over-the-counter and prescription drugs, illicit drugs, cigarette toxins, airborne pollutants, the living and dead bodies of pathogens, and other toxins. The lymphatic system, or lymph system includes one’s lymph nodes, the spleen, thymus gland, tonsils, lymph glands (where lymph is made) and the lymph fluid itself.
Despite the fact that there is three times more lymph fluid than blood in the circulatory systems of our bodies, there is no organ to pump lymph through the body like the heart does for blood. The main way to move and clean lymph is via body movements or massage so that motion or friction pressure pushes lymph through the lymph valves, drainage and cleansing systems.
It is estimated that 80% of everyone has a sluggish lymph system, meaning that their lymph hardly moves at all. Thus, otherwise hygienic human beings (who wash the outsides of their bodies religiously, and maintain spotlessly clean kitchens and bathrooms, while giving no attention to their lymphatic systems), are causing their cells to live in a toxic cess‑pool despite their body's exterior cleanliness. That filthy internal water detrimentally affects their quality of life and lifespan.
