"Going Green" on the Inside...Lessening Your Body's Toxic Load

Going Green From the Inside!

Wind generators, solar power, geothermal heat, natural cleaning products, organic clothing... There are seemingly endless means by which to shrink your carbon footprint and lessen your impact on the environment.But while our planet manages to receive heavy doses of TLC, there continues to be a
large dumping ground for dangerous toxins, chemicals, and man-made impurities...

Our bodies are under the influence of more and more artificial products, and their cumulative effect over the past few decades is beginning to show. Despite significant advances in the healthcare delivery system, obesity rates are skyrocketing, autoimmune diseases are on the rise, and there are more medicinal and surgical procedures being administered than ever before. Antibiotics continue to be abused, and prescription medications of all sorts are showing up in water supplies across the nation. While emergency medical care is absolutely essential, continually dispensing medicine for conditions better treated naturally or more conservatively is risky, and can be ultimately dangerous.

One of the greatest things about acupuncture is that it facilitates healing while preserving the delicate balance of the human body and mind. It’s the ultimate green healthcare! If a body is already ailing, what sense does it make to subject it to an onslaught of dangerous chemicals? It is far more productive to nurture the body by bringing it back into balance naturally and allowing it to rid itself of disease. But aside from the health advantages of limiting your consumption of drugs, it is simply more efficient to tap into the renewable resources within the body than it is to try to power it from the outside. The body is healed and powered by the natural medicine, proper diet and exercise.

As we continue to uncover the long-term effects of medicine and other chemical products, the responsibility falls on us as consumers to be sure that we are making the best decisions for us and for our planet, and it is imperative that our choices regarding healthcare be included in the mix. Will we continue to make choices that poison our body and the world around us, or will we trust in cleaner, healthier alternatives that support the body’s natural balance?
