Introduction • Definition • Organs of detoxification • Methods of detoxification – – – – – – – Foods Supplements Homeopathics Heavy Metal and Halogen Protocols Cellular Cleanse Footbaths Far Infrared Saunas Pulsed Electric Magnetic Therapy (PEMF) Definition • Detoxification is the process to rid the body of poisonous substances. • Internal toxins produced from metabolism • Environmental toxins are everywhere including the most remote wildernesses. They are in our air, in the foods we eat, the water we drink and bath in, in our clothes, in our household products, etc. We live in a world filled with toxic chemicals. – Phthalates, dioxins, hydrocarbons, etc – Most skin care products excluding Elina’s – Heavy metals: Hg, Ar, Cd, Pb, etc. Detox Organs - Major • Liver – Phase 1: Fat soluble toxins – Phase 2: Water soluble waste products • Kidneys • Intestines • Skin Liver Regulates Skin • Phase I: A series of enzymes called cytochrome P450 chemically changes harmful fat-soluble toxins into a more toxic intermediary metabolite. • Phase II: Attachment of specific molecules onto the intermediary metabolite occurs. This process makes them non-toxic and water soluble so they can be eliminated through the urine or the stool. Liver Regulates Skin • Anything that gets on the skin immediately effects the liver. • Skin products other than those Elina produces are a licensed poison and should never be used. • Taking a shower or a bath (in filtered water) is a technique for jump starting your liver. You are actually washing your liver. Liver Regulates Skin • Hepatitis: Swelling of the liver. The incidence of hepatitis in people with tatoos is 75% > and the more tatoos the higher the incidence. • Skin brushing improves liver function as well as lymphatic drainage and aids the nervous system. • Processed oil coats the liver and markedly decreases liver function. Detoxification Systems • The detox systems also includes the • lungs as well as involves drainage drainage of the lymphatics. Examples of blocked lymphatics: – Post lymph node dissections during cancer surgery – Ankle edema Diagnostic Face Reading Keys • Looking older is a function of organ • • • breakdown. All wrinkles, acne, moles, redness, irritations, and dry areas indicate organ weakness. The face should not have acne, accident, nor sickness scars. If some part of the face is red, that indicates the associated organ is stressed. Diagnostic Face Reading Keys • The human face is not set, but changes • • • with the health of our organs. Graying hair is a function of weak kidneys and may change back. Always evaluate a face while you are relaxed, not smiling. When reading the face, start at the scalp and read down area by area.

Summary • We must continually detox. • We live in a swamp of poisons that keeps increasing in number and quantity. • Minimizing avoidable exposures such as using Elina’s skin care products and eating organic foods is worth it. • Major detox organs are liver, kidney, intestines, and skin • To fully detox takes 3 months. Summary • After intense detoxing, continue to eat fresh unprocessed food with an emphasis on alkaline forming foods. • Monitor your pH and keep your urine pH between 6.4 and 7.0 • Remember too alkaline is as bad as too acid. • Keep hydrated with purified water • Continue to take foot baths and FIR saunas. • Use supplements as needed. • Use PEMF for M.I.C.E.
