The Environmental Working Group gathered data showing that in the umbilical cord blood of newborns there were 287 synthetic chemicals. Happy Birthday! Now drink this synthetic formula from this plastic bottle while I wipe your bottom with this specially formulated moist wipe that has a dozen chemical compounds in it. 

Dr. Greene of Stanford University comments that of these 287 chemicals, 217 are registered as neurotoxins and are harmful to the brain. Some of these chemicals include pesticides, mercury and fire retardants just to name a few. And before this bright bundle of joy can even leave the hospital we will inject more toxic heavy metals in the form of vaccines into this chemical soup. And you want to know why Johnny can’t focus on his school work? His poor brain never had a chance.

Conservative estimates report that there are more than 75,000 different man made synthetic chemicals in our environment. We produce roughly 2000 new synthetic chemicals each year and these end up in our foods, cosmetics, and other house hold products. The Federal Toxic Substance Act of 1976 allows the EPA to regulate 10 different toxins. Ten!? Just ten of these toxic, unhealthy potential poisons are regulated by my government?  Glad to know they’re on top of things.

Are you ready to just throw your hands up in disgust and surrender to the effects? You might be tempted to, but I’d like to change that.

The Detox Manifesto
Originally it started as an innocent article, but friends, I am in the midst of writing what is quickly becoming a detox manifesto.

I want you to understand the key components; the threats that face you and your family, a core understanding of what “detox” really means for the organs of your body, and what you and your family can do to keep your bodies in prime fighting and functioning condition.

There is plenty you can do. Are you in?

Join the conversation.

My full report will be available to all Healthy Alter Ego readers, but before it’s complete, I thought I’d give you the chance to sound off.

What issues concern you most? Do you know who is more at risk and why? Do you take steps to help detox your body now? Do you know all the impressive detox organs of your own body and how to keep them in tip-top shape? Do you know some of the simple steps you can take to avoid toxins in your environment? And how about easy ways to help your body rid itself of these foreign and potentially damaging chemicals?

This series is not intended to scare you but rather enlighten and empower you.  You can take significant steps to reduce your toxic burden and clear the chemicals from your body as fast as they are coming in but you need to take some definitive action. 

I want you to THRIVE, not just survive.

This special report will be my gift to you. You’ll find it on Healthy Alter Ego in the coming days, free of charge.
