Is Your Toothpaste Killing You?
Okay, so I’m not suggesting that your tube of white goo and toothbrush are plotting your slow demise. Just consider what that goo might consist of. Most all toothpaste contains fluoride along with a host of other chemicals that are definitely not good for you. Considering that anything you put in your mouth is rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream, it troubles me that the chemicals in toothpaste could be compounding in my body on a daily basis. Fluoride is a dangerous chemical and can have devastating effects on the body’s organs. Do a little research into this and you’ll be stunned at what you’ll learn.
Release Toxins with Dry Skin Brushing
This is something that everyone can do and get great benefits from. All you need is a natural bristle brush and 5 minutes before your shower every morning. Well, that and a bit of light pain tolerance.
Since the skin is the largest organ in the body and is responsible for about one fourth of the body’s detoxification, this technique is very effective in releasing toxins through the skin. It begins by removing dead skin cells and stimulating circulation. It also stimulates the lymph system so that it may effectively help in eliminating the body’s metabolic waste. It will leave your skin clean and tight with increased cell renewal. Dry skin brushing is also very effective in eliminating and preventing cellulite!
