Do Your Health a Favor and Cleanse!

There’s no getting around it ... the United States is in a huge health crisis. Doctors are witnessing an accelerated decline in Americans’ health, including and maybe most importantly the health of children.

Why are we in a health crisis? Well, according to Dr. Becky Natrajan, a board certified gastro-intestinal specialist in Tucson, Arizona, “ There is undeniable scientific evidence linking disease to toxins. Toxins in all forms have been linked to cancers in all forms. We as a nation are nutritionally bankrupt. Our farmlands are overfarmed and the soils are depleted of vital minerals. On average, there are 72 pesticides and insecticides on our fruits and vegetables. Our meats and fish are filled with hormones, steroids and antibiotics.”

The cause of this crisis? The toxicity that is hidden in your fat. And why do we gain weight? There’re a number of possibilities: We eat too much, we eat the wrong kinds of food, stress, genetics, and lack of exercise. These are all part of the problem, but there’s more. “When bodies are bombarded with chemicals and toxins, our bodies naturally manufacture more fat to surround the toxins, as well as excess water. More toxins, more fat, more water, more you. It’s a protection mechanism that our body goes through to keep us from “immune breakdown,” according to Dr. Natrajan.

The numbers are staggering. A recent USA Today survey found that 81% of Americans are overweight, with 31% of those meeting the criteria for obesity, including 18 million children. This is not a cosmetic issue—it’s a health issue. Incredibly, only 20% of the population was overweight in 1935. There are 60 diseases and illnesses linked to obesity, most of which are ultimately deadly. Consider this sobering fact: Researchers have found that excess weight may account for 14%- 20% of all cancer deaths. That’s approximately 90,000 deaths a year! Plus “obesity makes taking care of cancer patients much more complicated,” says Dr. Christopher Desch, a medical oncologist in Richmond, Virginia.

The critical question becomes, “What can we do to maintain our body internally?” With most diseases and illnesses linked to environmental toxicity, we need to take charge of our health by continually cleansing our body at a cellular level. Cleansing flushes the toxins, which in turn flushes the fat. The problem is, most cleanses on the market today are “ catabolic.” They tear down lean muscle as well as cleanse you.

According to Dr. Natrajan, “I’ve been able to help more people in the last 14 months than I did in the previous 10 years thanks to one product system— Isagenix. Isagenix is a miracle for strengthening your immune system and helping to fight off illness, disease and obesity. Isagenix addresses nutritional replacement and cleansing without tearing down lean muscle by flooding your body with 242 incredible nutrients. There’s no Ma-Huang/ephedra or added caffeine. The Isagenix system, when consumed in conjunction with a balanced diet, is part of an overall fitness program that can have amazing effects on your own personal health and wellness.”

Many people feel that cleansing is some thing people only would do if they are overweight, or that it’s the newest fad. Some think that because they are an athlete, exercise regularly, or have no family history of obesity, cleansing would be unnecessary. It’s a common misconception that can have deadly results. The reality is that looking good on the outside does not necessarily equate to looking good on the inside. “When you’re lean, toxins circulate through your vascular system and deposit right to your vital organs like the liver, brain, kidneys, prostate and breast tissue. The fact is, lean people need cleansing even more than those dealing with a weight issue,” proclaims Dr. Natrajan.

So how often do you need to cleanse? Well, would you ever stop changing the oil in your car? Would you stop cleaning the lint screen in your dryer? What would happen if you did? Toxicity is everywhere, so it’s common sense that you’d cleanse for the rest of your life. And why wouldn’t you? The cost of the maintenance program is about $4 to $5 a day and replaces one of your meals. So, in essence, the program does not cost any additional money and in most cases saves you money. There are two Isagenix fat burn/body cleanse programs, a 9-day program which replaces 22 meals for $168.95 including shipping, and a 30-day program which replaces 62 meals for just under $260. These figures include the $49 annual membership fee which allows you to buy all of the product line for the rest of the year at wholesale. The program includes: a fast start mineral drink to start the cleansing process; Isalene shakes which have over 100 nutrients that replenish the system; natural accelerator capsules and snacks. And get this, the shakes actually taste great. So all of you people that have ever choked down one of those horrible protein shakes, fear not! The shakes come in rich chocolate and French vanilla.
