Fighting Body Pollution

In the early 1900’s, premature death was due mostly to communicable diseases… Today death is mostly due to lifestyle related conditions. Bad eating habits, stress and lack of exercise often lead to heart disease, stroke, cancer, and diabetes. Much of the food we eat is not safe anymore due to the overuse of food chemicals and additives.

In the latest World Health Organization Report we see that of the nearly 56 million people who have died, 16.97 million people, or 33%, have died of cardiovascular diseases.Over 7 million have died of cancer-related diseases. 3.6 million have died of respiratory diseases, while another 101 million are listed as suffering from them. And just over 3/4 of a million people have died of diabetes. This and earlier reports point to the disturbing conclusion that these non-communicable diseases will increase in occurrence. Think about it, the incidence of cancer has doubled for the people born in the 1940’s compared to those born during the years 1888-1897.Now, 1 in 3 North American women will be diagnosed with cancer during their lifetime.   Get Intra to Fight Body Pollution Now

But WHY is this happening?

Let’s look at the air we breathe
One billion people, mostly women and children, are regularly exposed to levels of indoor air pollution exceeding World Health Organization guidelines by up to 100 times.Next time you are dropping your children or grandchildren off at school, see how many kids have inhalers to help them with asthma-related breathing problems.  Then think back to when you attended school and the magnitude of the problem will hit you.  The level of pollution has overwhelmed children’s natural ability to fight back and deactivate the toxic overload.

It is predicted that by the year 2020, 8 million people will die annually from the air pollution we cause .

How about the water we drink?

Millions of people around the world have no choice but to consume water that exceeds the lead contamination level deemed acceptable by the World Health Organization. Studies show that over 80% of U.S. streams and rivers are contaminated with a broad array of medical drugs, including hormones, antibiotics, antidepressants and heart mediations, as well as chemicals from personal care and household cleaning products.

Now, let’s look at the food we eat

We used to say, „An apple a day keeps the doctor away.“ … but now, those lovely looking apples we eat are full of pesticides.  Even the worms do not want to eat them!  Furthermore, most of these apples are grown thousands of miles away, picked while they are still green and exposed to ethylene gas so they can ripen as they are being shipped to their destination in a truck.  Not only do these fruits still carry a residue of the chemical but because they are picked early, they may have little or no nutritional value by the time they reach your kitchen table. Our modern food supply has become a mixture of chemicals and additives with the emphasis on appearance and taste as well as shelf life, rather than on the nutritional value.  That’s why by middle age many people have as much as 20 pounds of undigested, putrefactive food in their colon.  No wonder why colon cancer is the number one cancer in the United States.

Body Pollution Affects Every One of Us

Back in 1976, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) began a program of collecting and analyzing human fat tissue samples – looking for toxic compounds.  They searched for and studied 54 different environmental toxins.  What they found was alarming.  100% of the people they studied had toxic chemicals stored in their bodies and at least 76% of all people had more than 20 different chemicals stored.
