Gift of Inspiration #4 - Toxic Environment
Hi Love,
Quote of the Week, “Since we cannot change reality, let us
change the eyes which see reality.” –Nikos Kazantzakis
In this weeks, Gift of Inspiration, I am dedicating this
gift to education, learning and making an effort to change
that which we can change. My research into Environmental
toxins has taken me to a world where we have created
destruction, disease, death and back again to re-creation,
rejuvenation, and re-birth. Because there is so much
information to share, I have tried to keep this to a length
that is not to time consuming, yet, full of information.
Please print this out along with the attached information
for later reading. This information is meant to empower you
not to create fear with-in you. (See Gift of Inspiration
#3)
I have been surprised at the numbers of people who do not
realize what toxins are in our world and if you don’t know
what they are, how can you make things better for yourself,
your children and the world we live in. My hopes are that
through this information that I am giving to you, that you
also share this knowledge with others.
I have found a very insightful website, Worldwatch
Institute. Please take a look at this link for insight on:
“10 ways to go green and save green”

For decades, scientists have been studying the effects of
pollutants in our air, water and soil. Now, they’re
studying the effects of these same pollutants in the human
body.
Toxins:
For most people, this word usually brings to mind items
such as chemicals and pesticides, pollution or maybe heavy
metals. And for many in the healthcare and wellness
industries, this word is linked more often than not with
the idea of disease. That’s right, more and more research
is pointing to the crucial role that toxins, from heavy
metals to industrial compounds to common food chemicals,
play in the onset of a wide variety of common and deadly
health conditions.
While most toxins have long been recognized as “bad” for
human health, they were rarely linked to chronic or common
diseases such as cardiovascular disease and arthritis. But
that perspective has changed. Science has uncovered the
relationship between persistent exposure to toxins, the
body’s systems, and the resulting health conditions that
occur because of the dysfunction of these systems.
Where do toxins come from?
Toxins originate from various sources, industry,
manufacturing, burning, waste processing, electromagnetic
frequencies, plastics, clothing that we wear, dry cleaning,
noise, and the like. Most toxins are synthetic, man-made
compounds that are found in our homes, our drinking water,
our air, our soil and our food. The frightening truth is
that they are more prevalent now that ever: and their
prevalence, researchers discovered, has lead to a toxic
state of the human body resulting in the onset of a myriad
of diseases.
In a comprehensive and somewhat alarming study, the
Environmental Working Group discovered that the average
person does not need to spend years being exposed to
environmental pollutants to be affected. In fact, they
found that toxicity begins in the womb. Unlike previously
thought, the placenta apparently does not protect the
developing fetus from toxins and pollutants. The study
demonstrated an average of 200 industrial chemicals in
umbilical cord blood from 10 babies born in 2004 in U.S.
hospitals. The umbilical cord blood of these children was
found to harbor pesticides, consumer product ingredients,
and wastes from burning coal, gasoline, and garbage.
The study proceeded to reveal that as we age, the levels of
these contaminants only continue to persist. Researchers
at two major laboratories found an average of 91 industrial
compounds, pollutants, and other chemicals in the blood and
urine of nine volunteers, with a total of 167 chemicals
found in the group. Like most of us, the people tested do
not work with chemicals on the job and do not live near an
industrial facility. Of the 167 chemicals found, 76 cause
cancer in humans or animals, 94 are toxic to the brain and
nervous system, and 79 cause birth defects or abnormal
development. These results reveal a frightening truth…we
are bombarded with toxins from before we are born and
throughout our existence.
Is there anything we should be avoiding, doing or taking?
Yes. Yes. Yes. There are things you can do. Obviously, we
are living in a toxic world. That’s why it’s so critical
that you do everything you can to cleanse your home, car
and body. What's the answer? Information and awareness.
That is where my gift to you is brought into the light. I
am so happy to create a website that will offer up to date
information, books, links to websites and products that
will give you a source for radiant health and create
health, comfort and joy in your life. The website is
www.healthcomfortandjoy.com and it will be up and
running in 9 more weeks. Meanwhile, I do have a website
with a scientific based company that has a product that can
change your life.
If you haven't already checked out my website at
www.mywaiora.com/261909 I suggest you take a look at
the Natural Cellular Defense. I have attached more
information. Natural Cellular Defense balances the pH
levels in your body, supports a healthy immune system and
helps remove heavy metals and other cancer causing toxins
from the body. This is a great start to eliminating toxins
that are already in your body and entering your body daily.
I personally have been taking NCD since August 2005. I
really had no specific reason for taking NCD other then
improving my immune system and balancing out my pH level.
It never occurred to me that the fibrous cyst in my breast
would disappear. Ever since I was in my 20's I have had
painful fibrous cyst in my breast. My doctor told me to
watch my caffeine and chocolate consumption. It helped a
little yet I have always dealt with the cyst up until I
started taking NCD.
