15. www.jeffboriswellness.com DETOX BENEFITS OF EXERCISE As you exercise, the blood circulates throughout the body, bringing nutrients to all the organs and muscles. Exercise accelerates the detoxification process. As you exercise, the blood circulates throughout the body, bringing nutrients to all the organs and muscles. Exercise also helps lymph fluids circulate the body, which removes toxins and other harmful materials. When exercising you breathe deeply and take in more oxygen, which helps all the cells to perform their jobs, including removing toxins. The enhanced oxygen and waste removal alkalizes and rejuvenates your cells, supporting our body in all aspects of detoxification. As you do aerobic exercise you build up a sweat and toxins are released through the pores of the skin. This allows acids and other wastes to be flushed through our skin and reduces the load on our kidneys. Exercising also helps you to lose weight by reducing the amount of fatty tissues in the body. As the fatty tissues grow smaller the toxins stored in fat are released into the body. These toxins must be removed. Supportive detox programs & cleansing foods help to get rid of these toxins in your body.

16. www.jeffboriswellness.com Any type of exercise that gets your whole body moving and gets your body fluids circulating at an increased rate will benefit you. Most forms of exercise increase your breathing, thus providing a form of oxygen therapy. Cardiovascular exercises help by increasing your body temperature over a sustained period, making you sweat out toxins. Core muscle exercises help massage and stimulate your internal organs. Stomach crunches help massage the colon and help strengthen the muscles that help the colon move waste, helping you cleanse your colon. Deep breathing causes the lymph to shoot through the capillaries like a geyser. The key word here is 'deep.' Deep breathing is the kind that best stimulates lymph flow. Breathing deeply helps eliminate poisons from the cells, and also enhances immunity, since the lymphatic system is actually part of the immune system. Your exercise should not be a source of stress, as stress can cause toxic buildup in our systems. Intense resistance training should be avoided on low calorie/low carb days.

CLEANSING is not only necessary to remove Stubborn Fat stores, but weight loss without cleansing poses a Health Risk. LEAN INDIVIDUALS may be at an even greater risk. 3. TOXINS have been linked to over 60 Degenerative Diseases. Modern Day Ailments correspond with common symptoms of low-level Endogenous Toxicity. 4. TOXINS place additional stress on body systems, interfering with optimal organ functions and limiting peak performance. CLEANSING enhances athletic performance by reducing stress and rebalancing body systems.

Fewer free radicals: during a fast, the, sensing a lack of food, become.

Like a cleaner-burning fire, they start producing fewer free radicals per calorie burned, says Eric Ravussin, Ph.D., a clinical investigator at Pennington Biomedical Research Center. 2. More antioxidants: The diminishing number of free radicals is met by an increase in antioxidant production within your cells. These enzymes "search and destroy free radicals," says Mark Mattson, Ph.D., a neuroscientist at the National Institutes of Health. 3. Stronger cells: This cleaner calorie-burning also produces a surge in beneficial hormones. "Exercise during a fast and the increase is even greater," says Ravussin, adding that the hormones prepare cells for worse stresses. "They'll better resist tumors and rebound faster from a heart attack."

The time course of the increased prevalence rates of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and diabetes mirror the classical trends of exposure-related disease. Chronic exposure to low levels of chemicals through processed foods, water and fertilizers is responsible for the current epidemics of these diseases and the increasing mortality rates associated with them. The increase in exposure plays a critical role in the cause, development and effects of the pandemic of these insulin-resistant diseases. Nitrosamines basically become highly reactive at the cellular level, which then alters gene expression and causes DNA damage. More than 90 percent of these compounds that have been tested have been determined to be carcinogenic in various organs. They are found in many food products, including fried bacon, cured meats and cheese products as well as beer and water. Exposure also occurs through manufacturing and processing of rubber and latex products, as well as fertilizers, pesticides and cosmetics. These overall trends are NOT due to genetics or an aging population. However, the strikingly higher and climbing mortality rates in older age brackets suggest that aging and/or longer durations of exposure have greater impacts on progression and severity of these diseases. While nitrogen-containing fertilizer consumption increased by 230% between 1955 and 2005, its usage doubled between 1960 and 1980, which just precedes the insulin-resistant epidemics the researchers found.

While toxins are being removed from the body the excess fat stores are released along with it.. This helps to retain and protect lean muscle. TRUTH: Rapid and safe fat loss is possible complementing exercise and a healthy diet with nutritional cleansing because it is NOT A DIET. It does not starve the body. The body is fed all the nutrients it needs to maintain proper biochemical balances. While toxins are being removed from the body the excess fat stores are released along with it. The fat that is released provides the body with additional energy through a process called ketosis. This helps to retain and protect lean muscle. WHY: To lose more than 2lbs per week through diet and exercise alone requires depriving the body of sufficient calories and essential nutrients; muscle is lost. HOW CAN RAPID WEIGHT LOSS BE SAFE?
