One of the first questions I am commonly asked is where am I getting this exposure from?
Exposure to plasticizers can come from skin absorption of cosmetics, body lotions, hair gels, shampoos, and deodorants. You can ingest them from water, PVC (water) pipes, detergents, and foods. We also can inhale them from airborne adhesives and glues, building materials, school/business supplies, furnishings, auto interiors, solvents, plastics, lubricants, insect repellants, vinyl flooring, carpet tiles, vinyl wallpaper, body toiletries, artificial leather, adhesives, dyes, and toys. Don't forget that plastics coat every wire in the electrical systems of our homes, offices, appliances and computers. As the wires heat, the plastic coating outgases into the air.
So as you can see, plastics are everywhere and, to be quite honest, they are difficult to avoid.
The best most people can do is to be certain they are doing everything they can to effectively and efficienctly eliminate any build-up of plastics (phthalates) in the body.
Before I move on to the 3 step protocol to detoxify plastics, it is first important to determine your level of accumulation. For some people they are fast metabolizers and quickly eliminate any exposure to plastics or for that matter most environmental toxins. On the other hand, there are many people who have a poorly functioning detoxification system and will unfortunately accumulate plastics as well as other environmental toxins.
The best way to determine your level of accumulation or toxic burden is to get tested. The recommended lab test is called Phthalates & Parabens Profile (www.metametrix.com)
Let's look at 3 ways you can help your body detox it's plastic overload:
1: Since they are detoxified through glucuronidation, take IndolPlex and Calcium D-Glucarate each 2 twice a day.
2: Having 2 or more servings of Brassica or cruciferous vegetables a day revs up the detoxification of plastics. These include cabbage, broccoli, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, radishes, mizuna, watercress, arugula, turnips, collard greens, kale, rutabaga, and more.
3: A third way to get the phthalates out is with your Far Infrared Sauna. It is important to have a health professional knowledgeable in the best protocol for using the Far Infrared Sauna.
Meanwhile, considering the level of plastics we are exposed to on a daily basis it may be necessary for slow metabolizers and accumulators of plastics to regularly follow a detox protocol as listed above.
I like to conclude and be certain that everyone understands the seriousness and potential danger of an over accumulation of plastics in the body. Your present and future health depends on doing your due diligence to clear your body of these environmental toxins.
Nothing operates in a vacuum - and so the above is a sketch of found results (Pollack and Wunsch et al), amidst all the factors of living biology - which include emotional states and therefore accepted mental beliefs and definitions that have emotional consequence.
I also put in that Hemp-based technologies can replace the oil based toxicities to a very great degree. Hemp was the first US billion dollar industry - and the Oil cartels took it down via deceits such as 'Reefer Madness'. And at the same time illicit markets were cultivated to do the same for TCH hemp breeding as they do with porn - denatured 'hard' and relationally destructive skunk - which may well be GM. So don't presume 'hemp based' means pot-headed psychotics just because a secretly controlled drug market operates its own agenda.
Aligning in natural solutions can also be used to mask false agenda in - and often is. True nature is not bought in or imposed top down under slick PR - so as to gain ever more corporate control. hence - any potential issue or solution needs to be uncovered within ourself and not simply used to fuel the blame and fear game. There is an immediate benefit to aligning in the true of your nature - and is more a true 'waking up' than the uncovering of the devices of deceit that pose as 'waking up' - when they are the first step. Having recognized the false, truly, the next step is to release it or stop using it as a basis from which to think or choose. To ONLY see the error in the other or 'out there' is not yet to recognize where the error is - because the mind of deceit WANTS to see it in others so as to hide its own correspondence. The mind is expert in hiding its own - at the cost of no longer being free to change - and generating conditions that 'prove' its beliefs and deny any other perspective.
