The end of the road of eating calorie-rich foods is that when one continuously eats more calories than are needful, the excess calories will be stored as fat. The accumulation of fat, plus stress, plus lack of sleep turns one's metabolism toward the sugar burning mode. Being a sugar burner is extremely unhealthy, leading to chronic health challenges and early death.
Becoming a "sugar burner" (someone headed into earlier death than could be) most often starts by over eating calories and under eating nutrients. So, do the opposite.
We call foods that are low in nutrients and high in calories vacuum foods. We call them vacuum foods because eating them nutrients out of the body.
Toxins are damaging molecules that chemically damage our cells by stealing electrons or incorporating into cells and ruining cell function. Toxins include free radicals (that are coincidentally produced in the mitochondria when energy is extracted from food). Toxic chemicals come from the air, water, foods, household cleaners, food additives, pesticides, trans fats, solvents, dental materials, perfumes, and many other sources.
Toxins strip electrons from molecules in the body, causing a cascade of free radical damage that eventually reaches into the DNA and either strips telomeres away or damages DNA strands directly. In either scenario, our life is altered and shortened from what could have been. So, stopping free radicals with antioxidants such as the Hydrogen Water Stick, Hydrogen Tablets, Hydrogen Water, OGF, Swish, Berry Extreme, Liquid Curcumin, etc. is mandatory for maximizing lifespan and healthspan.
Anyone who has ever had fish knows that if you don't regularly clean the fish bowl it becomes filthy. Fish don't thrive in filthy water. So, if you want dead fish, just don't clean the fish bowl.
Likewise, your cells cannot thrive if the fluids of your body are filled with toxins that coming from metabolism (conversion of food to energy) or ingestion of toxins from the environment. As toxins build inside, the result to the body is increased free radical damage so that hour by hour, one's cells lose a bit of health. This degradation accumulates over time and can removes decades of lifespan and healthspan potential.
Both for fish bowls or human bodies, we need to keep the internal environment clean. Trying to be healthy while living in internal toxicity doesn't work. Below are the some of the best practices for getting those toxins out of you. You should be doing as many as you can.
Toxins such as refined sugars, trans fats, and artificial additives, chemicals, etc. contribute to chronic inflammation. Chronic inflammation is linked to many diseases, including heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and autoimmune disorders. The accumulation of inflammatory damage from toxic foods can severely impact health, regardless of other nutritious food intake.
Direct DNA Damage: Toxins like heavy metals (e.g., mercury, lead) and chemical carcinogens (e.g., benzene, formaldehyde) can directly damage DNA by breaking strands or causing chemical modifications, leading to mutations that disrupt cell function and increase disease risk.
Oxidative Stress: Toxins such as air pollutants and chemicals in processed foods produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), which cause oxidative stress and DNA damage, resulting in mutations and potential health issues.
DNA Methylation: Exposure to toxins like tobacco smoke, pesticides, and heavy metals can alter DNA methylation patterns, affecting gene expression. DNA methylation can silence important genes that prevent uncontrolled cell growth or repair DNA, potentially leading to cancer and other health conditions.
Histone Modifications: Toxins such as BPA and phthalates can impact histone proteins, altering gene activation patterns and potentially causing developmental or metabolic issues.
Impact on Cellular Aging: Toxins like air pollution and smoking accelerate telomere shortening, leading to premature aging and higher susceptibility to age-related diseases. Shortened telomeres are associated with cellular deterioration.
Inhibition of DNA Repair Proteins: Some toxins, including certain plastics and pesticides, interfere with DNA repair enzymes, reducing the body’s ability to fix DNA damage. This leads to the accumulation of genetic errors over time.
Interference with Cell Cycle Control: Toxins disrupt cell cycle checkpoints, increasing the likelihood of replication errors and propagation of mutations.
Oncogene Activation: Exposure to toxins such as tobacco smoke or asbestos can activate oncogenes, leading to uncontrolled cell division and potential tumor formation.
Tumor Suppressor Silencing: Toxins may silence tumor suppressor genes through epigenetic changes, allowing cells to evade natural growth control mechanisms, which can lead to unchecked cell growth.
Toxins from processed foods, alcohol, and pollutants can damage the intestinal lining, impairing nutrient absorption. Heavy metals like lead and mercury can make the gut “leaky,” reducing its ability to absorb nutrients effectively.
Enzymes are necessary to break down food for nutrient absorption. Toxins, such as pesticides and industrial chemicals, inhibit enzyme activity, which reduces nutrient availability, especially for proteins and complex carbohydrates.
Toxins from antibiotics, alcohol, and artificial additives disrupt gut bacteria balance. This imbalance affects nutrient synthesis, especially for vitamins like B and K, and impairs nutrient absorption, leading to deficiencies.
Some toxins, such as heavy metals like cadmium, lead, and mercury, compete with essential minerals like zinc, calcium, and iron for absorption sites, limiting access to these necessary nutrients.
Fat-soluble toxins, like dioxins and PCBs, can bind to fat molecules, disrupting the absorption of essential fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, and K) and affecting various bodily functions.
Many toxins trigger inflammation in the gut, which can impair nutrient absorption. Increased immune cell activity in the gut due to inflammation can alter gut permeability and inhibit nutrient uptake.
The detoxification process itself uses up nutrients, particularly B vitamins, antioxidants, and amino acids. Constant toxin exposure diverts these nutrients away from essential bodily functions, effectively reducing their availability.
One of our top recommendation for getting toxins out of the body is sweating (via sauna or exercise). Sweating is a safe way for most people to detoxify and be cleaner internally. Sweating causes toxins to leave cells and go out of the body via the sweat glands. That means that those toxins don't have to go through the liver and kidneys to get out of the body, thus avoiding exit damage to the kidneys and liver.
A Finish study showed that people who sweat profusely three to five times a week outlive those who don't (2,000 person study). And they have less incidence of disease. Check out our Relax Far Infrared Sauna information. The benefits of sweating are too good to ignore.
We recommend purchasing a Relax Fir Sauna and doing three 40 minute saunas per week.It is virtually impossible to find something more important in regard to having a detoxified body than maintaining ample glutathione in the cells of one's body. Glutathione is a thiol (grabs toxins wherever it finds them) and is the body's chief endogenous antioxidant. Glutathione is used in every cell of the body and especially in the body's chief organ of detoxification, the liver. Glutathione levels decrease in human beings from age 23 until death by nearly 2 percent a year (see graph).
So, supplementing with Glutathione boosters is a key practice for staying healthy. Glutathione is a Phase II detoxifier. It binds with toxins and take them out of the body via the urine. It binds with other antioxidants. Studies have found that centenarians — people who live to be 100 or older have much higher levels of glutathione than their peers. We recommend one particularly supplement above the rest because of its composition patent and proven ability to increase glutathione levels by up to four times previous levels. It is called Original Glutathione Booster. We also recommend SwishЗо for its sub-lingual absorption.Eating Iodine rich foods such as seaweed or oysters (shown to the right), or supplementing with Oyster Max or with Magnascent Iodine is important to staying detoxified and healthy. 96% of Americans are deficient in Iodine. Iodine is important for detoxification, primarily through its critical role in supporting thyroid function to increase mitochondrial energy output. It takes energy to detoxify. Without enough iodine, therefore, it is like someone who is too tired to clean up the house after a long day's work.
Eating Magnesium rich foods such as pumpkin seeds, chard, spinach, dark chocolate, kale, almonds, avocado, tofu, quinoa, flaxseed, salmon, etc. (shown to the right), or supplementing with ACE Ormus is important to staying detoxified and healthy. 75% of Americans are deficient in Magnesium. Like Iodine, Magnesium is important for detoxification, primarily through its role in increasing mitochondrial energy output. It takes energy to detoxify. Without enough magnesium, therefore, the cells don't have extra energy to devote to detoxification.
Eating food only during a 5 to 10 hour window each day and not eating closer than three hours to bed time enables the body to do better housekeeping and removal of toxins. The reason is that limiting the time when the gastrointestinal tract has to be working frees up considerable amounts of energy that is otherwise using in metabolizing food. This energy can be diverted to detoxify and repair the cells of the body.
Limiting the time for eating is the only absolutely sure-fire method that will always (in every case) increase lifespan of test animals by nearly double. So, choose a period of time that you will eat such as from 1 PM to 7 PM each day. There is nothing special about 1 PM to 7PM. The eating window could be longer or earlier in the day. Eating from 5 AM to 2PM would also be great. The window needs to be between 5 to 10 hours and eating should not occur closer than three hours to bedtime. Those are the only rules. You can drink water and non-calorie containing beverages outside that eating window.
Long time water fasting is the quickest way to detoxify the body. Note, however, that quickest isn't always the best. The reason that water fasting works so well to detoxify the body is that while water fasting the body totally freaks out (in a good way) about the loss of incoming calories and looks internally for any calorie sources that can be burned to make energy. In this scavenging for calories process the body will choose to dismantle fat storage (where many toxins are stored) so that the fatty acids can be burned for energy. The stored toxins are released during this process and can be excreted from the body. If one fasts long enough, toxins will be thoroughly cleansed from the body.
Warning: Fasting can be very difficult. We recommend warming up to a long term fast (40 days or more) by starting with a 24 hour fast. Later on, one can do a 72 hour fast. We then recommend a 10-day fast, then a 20-day fast, and finally a 42-day fast. Be sure to have a physical exam, inform your medical professional of your intention. Join, a Facebook group devoted to fasting, and go into this with your eyes-wide open.
From now on, we will call these oils, PUFAs. PUFAs are highly reactive fatty acids. They are essential to life, which is why we also call them Parent Essential Oils. PUFAs are essential to life because the body cannot make them and must eat them. PUFAs are essential to cellular function for many reasons, one of those reasons being that they make up fifty percent of each membrane (see cell illustration showing bi-lipid membrane that is 50% PUFAs) and pull oxygen into the cell interior. Without that pulling action not enough oxygen would diffuse into the cell to maintain life.
PUFAs function far differently than saturated fatty acids or MUFAs (mono-unsaturated fatty acids) which are primarily sources of energy and do not adulterate. On the other hand, PUFAs can be become adulterated and, thereafter, are very harmful to one's health. One of the main ways that adulterated PUFAs damage health is that they incorporate into cell membranes and stop oxygen from going into the cell interior (the opposite of what is wanted).
With the above understandings, one will avoid adulterated PUFAs and consume non-adulterated PUFAs. The only issue is finding non-adulterated PUFAs. We do offer these oils on our web site. Learn more at https://healthy-living.org/peos.
