WHY OUR TOXICITY -
BALANCE, TOXICITY & HARMONY
BALANCE
AND HOMEOSTASIS
The body is designed for wellness. All of its innate functions
and processes are focused on one thing - maintaining the
health of the organism. Long-term health is the goal behind
the principle of homeostasis. Homeostasis is essentially
the management of internal affairs; a dynamic and complex
mechanism of checks and balances that strives 24 hours a
day to keep the body in balance. In this respect, balance
and wellness are inseparable. Both are concerned with the
preservation of health and the body’s will to survive.
The vast majority of imbalances are corrected uneventfully
without our awareness; but in the pursuit of long-term health,
sometimes short-term imbalances must be experienced in order
to meet the primary objective.
Imbalances can be caused by the stress of relationships,
worries, financial concerns, toxic emotions, toxic foods
and pollution. They all take their toll and will eventually
extract payments from the body. If it cannot keep up the
payments ill heath will occur.The body will reorganize,
downsize and declare bankruptcy if necessary for the greater
good of the organism. Acute symptoms and illnesses are all
part of the management plan. If imbalances are not properly
corrected, and if the stresses mount, they get factored
into the plan and become constraints, hindering future attempts
to correct further imbalances. As chronic stress continues
for a long period of time, and this deep imbalance predominates,
the cycle begins to spiral down toward degeneration and
disease. At the extreme end of the plan the cancerous tumor
is the body’s attempt to isolate toxicity in order
to maintain overall homeostasis or balance. Everything from
allergies to angina to lymphoma is an indication of the
body’s efforts to respond to a long-term stress that
is creating an imbalance. The body is doing the best it
can, with what it has in order to maintain life as long
as possible.It may sound ruthless and self-defeating, but
the body will utilize all of its available resources (note:
available resources), and if necessary, will even sacrifice
one piece or process at a time in order to survive. Dr Bernard
Jensen states that stress uses up valuable nutritional resources
that the body has need of elsewhere.
HOMOTOXINS AND HEALTH
The term homotoxin (homo = human; toxin = poison) refers
to any substance to which the body has an adverse or toxic
reaction. Such substances include metabolic waste, hazardous
environmental material and by products of viruses and bacteria.
Toxins that cannot be eliminated from the body are at the
root cause of illness and death. The ideal healthy body
- one that is stress controlled, nourished, and balanced
physically, mentally and emotionally - will avoid disease
having minimal susceptibility to toxins because it has the
resources available to thoroughly eliminate toxins from
the system before they have any long-term impact. Homotoxicology
- he study of the effects of toxicity on the balance and
harmony of the human organism - provides significant insight
into Iife extension practices and freedom from disease.
HARMONY AND HOMEOPATHY
The Eastern or Chinese model of medicine sees health as
a state of harmonic balance, supported by the uninterrupted
flow of life energy throughout the organism. The objective
of a wellness practitioner is to offer the patient the tools
by which balance and harmony can be restored. Homeopathy
is just such a tool. Using dilutions of natural substances
to stimulate the body’s self-healing processes, homeopathy
provides the support that allows the body to rebound and
return to its natural state of balance. The principles of
homeopathy therefore align with the Eastern model of harmony
and health, where a balanced state of being provides the
greatest opportunity for achieving and maintaining optimal
wellness.
THE EASTERN MODEL OF MEDICINE
Chinese medicine is based on an energetic perspective of
the body/mind. According to this model, there are five basic
qualities or elements of energy: wood, fire, earth, metal
and water. Each element symbolizes a deeper quality of energy
that relates to specific organs in the body. The relationships
between the elements and the organs are called spheres of
influence. When the spheres are in balance with each other,
a state of health persists, while an imbalance anywhere
between the spheres can indicate a potential state of illness
or disease. Organized and disorganized states of life energy
are classified according to the basic shape of the patient’s
pattern of disharmony. This inwardly simple yet outwardly
complex categorization of life energy, in use since ancient
times, is only now beginning to be understood by Western
medicine. It shifts one’s attention to the true meaning
of preventive medicine - not the early detection of pathology,
but rather a pro-active commitment to lifestyle practices
that promote longevity.

WHY
DETOXIFY?
TOXICITY
PROBLEMS
In recent history, mankind has managed to drastically change
the chemistry of the environment in which we live. In addition
to our toxic environment, we have refined away much of the
nutritional value of our food supply. This poor quality
diet, combined with extensive use of antibiotics in medicine
and agriculture, may have made many of us susceptible to
“internal pollution”. This occurs when unhealthful
bacteria overcome the healthful bacteria in the intestinal
tract and the unhealthful bacteria release toxic by-products
into our system that can negatively impact general overall
health.
HOW DOES THIS
AFFECT YOU?
This depends on how much you learn about the causes of toxicity
and how to prevent it. We would like to enjoy a vibrant
level of health so we need to learn what we need to do to
help our body protect itself from toxicity.
BASIC WAYS TO
AVOID TOXICITY
Do all you can to purify your work and home environments.
Toxic materials at work could be stored or leaking chemicals,
dyes, paints, solvents, glues, and acids. Household offenders
could be insecticides or cleaning agents, remove them if
possible. An air purification system may be needed if it
impossible to eliminate all the offending factors. Regular
replacement of furnace and air conditioning filters also
help too.
It is also very important to eat a good diet with plenty
of fresh, wholesome foods. Avoid eating excess fat, refined
sugar and foods high in additives and preservatives. Substitute
organic products whenever possible and drink plenty of purified
water (ideally, eight 8-ounce glasses a day). A home water
purification system is highly desirable.
Support Your Body’s Efforts
As much as you try to purify your work and home environments,
it is impossible to avoid toxicity completely. Therefore
the importance of supporting your body’s efforts to
eliminate toxins that accumulate cannot be overstated.
FASTING (WATER
ONLY) ORJUICE FASTS ARE LESS COMPLETE
Prolonged fasting may weaken muscles and various organs
because and a gradual slowing of metabolic activity and
protein losses. In the past, it was believed that a water
or juice fast worked under the principle that the body will
be able to clear stored toxins and heal itself when the
“stress” of digestion and the further accumulation
of toxins are eliminated. Nowadays it is known that the
body’s detoxification mechanism is a heavily nutrient-supported
process.
MORE COMPLETE SUPPORT FOR DETOXIFICATION
A more current approach to detoxification is to nourish
the body thoroughly, fueling its natural detoxification
mechanism with the nutrients needed to achieve optimal detoxification
activity. By providing high quality protein, complex carbohydrates,
and essential fats, the body gets what it needs to prevent
muscle and organ breakdown and depleted energy resources.
But that is just the beginning. Nutrients are needed to
support the function of the organs directly involved in
detoxification: the liver, the intestinal tract, and the
kidneys. Intelligent application of nutrition may help in
the following ways:
Intestines: The nutrients zinc and pantothenic acid, the
amino acid L-glutamine, carbohydrates known as fructooligosaccharides,
and microorganisms known as acidophilus and bifidus, are
a few of the substances that provide support for the health
and integrity of intestinal function. In a proper state
of health, the intestines promote elimination of toxins
through (1) regular bowel movements, (2) eliminating the
build-up of unhealthful microorganisms and internal toxins,
and (3) providing a strong and intact barrier to prevent
the leakage of toxic materials from the intestines into
circulation.
Liver: The vitamins A, B3, B6, C, and E, beta-carotene,
the amino acids L-cysteine and L-glutamine, and components
known as glutathione and phospholipids are some of the substances
that support liver function. In a proper state of function,
the liver filters out and transforms toxic substances that
have entered the blood into harmless substances that can
be excreted in the urine. Interestingly, it appears that
the ratio of dietary protein to carbohydrate may be a very
important factor in determining the ability of the liver
to detoxify certain substances.
Kidneys: The vitamins A, C, and B6, and the minerals magnesium
and potassium are just some of the substances that support
kidney activity. The kidneys provide a major route of toxin
excretion via the urine.
Fat: Weight reduction and management is helpful for those
who are overweight. Excess fat provides a ready storage
site for fat-loving toxins entering the body. Once deposited
there, it is very difficult to remove them. Unless the excess
fat is removed, they remain there with the possibility of
being a continual source of toxicity.

THE
BIO-CLEANSE UNIT
THE HUMAN BODY
IS LIKE A GIANT MAGNET THAT
ATTRACTS AND HOLDS ON TO TOXINS
As we are exposed to so much toxicity in life, the body
is left weak and toxic. Heavy metals, partially oxidized
fats, unassimilated proteins, cholesterol deposits, uric
acid, plaque, lactic acid, and the vast array of chemicals
that pervade our water, air, and food, attach themselves
in ionized form to joints, organs, arteries, nerves and
tissues, disrupting their function, and creating an environment
for disease, allergies, and immune system breakdowns.
A periodic detoxification is essential to maintain health
and avoid disease. Now you can successfully treat the variety
of symptoms emanating from toxic accumulations in your body.
Energy levels can be restored in the body.
WHO WOULD BENEFIT
FROM BIO-CLEANSE TREATMENTS?
Because everyone holds toxins in the body, whether or not
symptoms are present, the full body cleansing and detoxing
that the Bio-Cleanse accomplishes will benefit everyone,
especially:
• Athletes who need to rid their bodies of lactic
acid quickly
• Youngsters seeking to overcome ADD/ADHD
• Persons recovering from accidents
• Anyone with low energy
• Anyone under severe stress, or suffering from fatigue
or burnout.
• Persons suffering from allergies
• Persons suffering from arthritis
• Anyone in pain
• Anyone with heavy metal toxicity
• Anyone seeking to slow aging
• Children with autism
• Anyone seeking support for any healing modality.
The Bio-cleanse provides a comfortable and relaxing way
to rid the body of toxins without bringing on healing crises
and without feeling the treatment. It is more effective
and faster than any herbal or fasting regimens, with little
or no stress to the client. It is an efficient way to dissolve
toxic accumulations, no matter where they are located in
the body. The unit consists of the power source and an array.
The array is placed in a footbath where the feet are placed.
In water, this array generates a programmable mix of positive
and negative ions (charged atoms), which attach themselves
to oppositely charged toxic particles. This stimulates the
release of toxins. The body’s meridians or energy
channels begin or end in the feet or hands and the flow
of energy is improved through these channels by this kind
of detoxification process.
The result over several sessions is a remarkable release
of many different toxic materials, a growing feeling of
well-being, and a significant increase in overall energy.
The body cannot completely detoxify everything in one session
as the toxic build has occurred over a period of time so
a course is recommended. Emotional toxins are also released
as well as chemical ones.
BIO-CLEANSE
SESSIONS ARE PAINLESS, COMFORTABLE AND EASY TO DO.
Ion producing technology has been around for several decades,
but the secret to its successful use in body detoxification
is the alternating production of positive and negative ions
in the same treatment. This important discovery now makes
it possible to work with everyone, regardless of the electrical
nature of the charges they hold in their body.
People suffering from edema, inflammation of joints, and
pain that is not related to subluxation have reported relief
immediately, whereas others suffering from gout, osteo-arthritis,
limphedema, headaches and neuralgia have experienced relief
and benefits from multiple treatments. The time for a single
treatment is 18 minutes.
There are some contraindications for a person using this
device therefore a consultation is required before a program
of detoxification can begin.

21
DAY BIO-DETOXIFICATION PROGRAM
It makes sense
to allow our disposal mechanisms (the liver, kidneys, digestive,
and elimination systems) a chance to recover, revitalize,
and renew with a thorough cleansing before the assaults
of a new spring, again on hearing the warnings of the beginning
of flu season in the winter, or in fact at any time for
that matter if you wish to stand a chance of defending your
body from the assaults of life!
Our extensive 21-day Bio-Detoxification program covers a
lot of ground in just 3 weeks with noticeable effects and
appreciable changes. It significantly reduces or eliminates
many problems and ailments. The body’s own defenses
are compromised by the build-up of emotional stressors,
environmental pollution and chemical debris in the body.
During our detoxification program, it will be necessary
to delete corn, soy, peanuts, eggs, dairy, refined sugars,
gluten and stick to neutral foods and plain water for a
while. These deleted foods, commonly known as the "sensitive
seven", frequently produce a delayed food reaction
and could be an unknown source of problems.
This thorough detoxification program will include nutritional
support to assist the body in a two-tiered cleansing process:
to help release the toxins, first breaking them down into
excretable benign substances, then to eliminate them from
the system, processing through the liver and GI tract, and
also through the kidney, skin, and lung. Taking in at least
two quarts of water daily is essential to the process. One
phase is no good without the other. If toxins are released
into the system without a way to effectively be eliminated,
nothing more than discomfort is achieved. The resulting
build up of toxins in the body will impair efficient elimination.
The appropriate recommended nutrients and nutraceuticals
will activate specific enzymes that break toxins down into
substances that can be excreted while protecting the body
from damage the toxins may cause. They will also support
the body’s route of toxin elimination. The use of
specific nutraceuticals will eliminate heavy metals, parasites,
bacteria, fungus, yeast, chemicals, help repair the intestinal
imbalances, and enhance the process of restoration. After
a course of cleansing, maintaining the systemic balance,
including supporting the immune system, will be aided by
specific nutritional support tailored to individual requirements.

TECHNIQUES
TO ASSIST DETOXIFICATION
You may experience
flu-like symptoms during the detoxification because your
body is ridding itself of poisons. You can get some relief
from these symptoms by utilizing the following techniques:
SKIN BRUSHING:
This can be very beneficial because the skin is a primary
avenue for detoxification along with the Lungs, Kidneys,
Liver and Colon. Use a vegetable brush. You can purchase
this at a health food store. You need to brush all parts
of the body toward the Heart. Then follow with a SESAME
OIL massage. Massaging with sesame oil brings relief. This
oil can be purchased from a health food store. Massage the
whole body for five (5) minutes before bathing or showering.
BATHS:
Can be taken 2 (two) to 3 (three) times per week (on off
days use the vinegar bath.)
Soak for 20 to 30 minutes (more than this may fatigue you.)
Epsom Salts and
Ginger Bath: This bath opens pores, eliminates toxins and
pain. One cup epsom salts and 2 tablespoons of fresh grated
ginger placed in a nylon or tea steeper then added to the
bath.
Salt and Soda
Bath: This bath counteracts the effects of radiation, whether
from x-rays, cancer treatment radiation, fallout from the
atmosphere, or television radiation, as well as detoxification
in general. Add one cup of baking soda and I to 2 cups of
ordinary coarse salt, epsom salts, or sea salt to a tub
of water.
Epsom Salts,
Sea Salt, Oil Bath: This bath helps with dry skin and stress.
Use 1 cup of epsom salts, 1 cup of sea salt (from a health
food store) and 1 cup of sesame oil. Put into a warm to
hot tub of water. Pat yourself dry.
Vinegar Bath:
This is used when the body is too acid. This is a quick
way of restoring the acid-alkaline balance. Use 1 cup to
2 quarts of 100% apple cider vinegar to a bathtub of warm
water. This is excellent for excess uric acid in the body
and especially in the joints: arthritis, bursitis, tendonitis,
gout and heavy metal toxicity.
LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE:
This can be accomplished by daily walks, bouncing (not jumping)
on a mini trampoline or bouncing on the edge of the bed
for twenty (20) minutes daily.
