We
have some good news for smokers! We all know that smoking
is not healthy, but now there's a quick and easy way
to rid the body of many of those toxic chemicals, from
tobacco, smoke, and drugs, by taking a simple bath! Pretty
great, huh? Soak in a hot clay bath mixed with spices
and herbs for twenty minutes and presto! Like a magnet,
the nasty chemical toxins, are drawn out of the body
into the bathtub! See the results for yourself. You may
be shocked like the author was when she took her first
toxic removal bath!
We don't use "just any kind" of clay. We've researched for the best possible
clay, a special one that has a magnetic pulling effect. Michel Abehera, author
of Amazing Cures from the Earth Itself - - the Healing Clay, says that, "Clay
has been used for thousands of years, and yet no one has been able to pin down
what makes it a healer." Most users, he notes, seem content with amazing results,
but various researchers offer differing perspectives on how the clay works.
Raymond Dextreit, the French naturopath who popularized the clay cure in his
own country, believes bentonite's (clay) powers transcend its purely physical
properties. "From a thermodynamic point of view," he writes, "…clay cannot
be the sole source of energy of the phenomena it produces. Clay is…a dynamic
presence…a catalyst rather than an agent itself. This is possible because
clay is alive."
Most of the poisons in the body, Dextreit notes, are positively charged, whereas
clay has a negative electrical attraction. Thus, he writes, "These toxins cannot
resist being drawn toward the clay."
Robert T. Martin, a mineralogist at MIT, points to bentonite's minute particles,
which create a large surface area in proportion to the volume used. "The greater
the surface area, he says, "the greater its power to pick up positively charged
particles or toxins."
In researching clay for removal of toxic chemicals in the body, it was found
that experimental research done by Research Science, seem to be quick, inexpensive
and a method that could remove the toxins in the comfort of one's own home! Their
research revealed how much clay to use to be effective in toxicity removal. (See Using
Energy to Heal by Wendell Hoffman.) Not only is the right amount of clay
important, but a certain time element of staying in the clay bath also seems
a factor in the detoxifying process. Added to this unique clay, are specific
herbs and spices which are known to remove toxic chemicals, smoke residues, metals,
etc., found in cigarettes, tobacco, and drug related use. What a deal, in one
clay bath!
The Toxicity of Smoking!
We know that smoking is a real tough habit to "kick". We are hoping that reading
this article will at least give you the desire to rid the chemical "stuff" out
of your body in a quick and easy way…for your own health's sake! We'll
remind you of the bad news along with giving you the good news! It is a proven
fact that smoking is deadly. You, the smoker, know already the risks of smoking
yet continue to smoke. We hope you'll make an extra effort for your own well-being
to read this article to the finish! Cigarettes are a factor in 17.2 percent of
all deaths in the United States each year. Eighty-five percent of lung cancer
is smoking related, and eight-five percent of deaths of chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease is a direct result of smoking. The American Lung Association reports
that 350,000 Americans die every year from smoking.
Not only is smoke harmful to you, the smoker, but it has been proven that second-hand
tobacco smoke is very toxic. Second-hand smoke and its toxic chemicals have been
linked to live-threatening diseases. It has been estimated to play a role in
over 50,000 annual deaths nationwide..The ingredients that make up a cigarette
should be an immediate signal that the habit is dangerous. Along with traces
of certain gases with unknown effects, tobacco smoke contains nicotine, carbon
monoxide, carcinogens (including polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons and hexavelant
chromium), cadmium, lead, nickel, arsenic, tar, hydrogen cyanide, radioactive
compounds, pesticides, and irritant substances.
Large Doses Of Nicotine Act As A Depressant!
Although nicotine is a stimulant, in large doses, it acts as a depressant. Nicotine
makes the heart pump faster and work harder, increasing the likelihood of heart
disease. Most smokers claim that smoking relaxes them; nicotine actually causes
palpitations and a generalized feeling of anxiety. In addition, it has been indicated
that nicotine works much like heroin, cocaine, and alcohol. In fact, when nicotine
was intravenously administered to volunteers, many of them could not tell the
difference between the effects of nicotine and cocaine. Nicotine produces pleasurable
sensations and physical dependency because it operates through the central nervous
system.
Carbon monoxide, when combined with the body's hemoglobin, presents oxygen from
being transported throughout the body. Carbon monoxide also allows for the development
of cholesterol deposits on artery walls. These two factors increase the risk
of heart attack and stroke. Carbon monoxide is also found in studies to be a
factor in anemia, angina, asthma, bronchitis, emphysema, headaches, memory loss
and respiratory disorders.
Hydrogen cyanide, a poisonous chemical contained within the smoke, causes bronchitis
by inflaming the lining of the bronchi. Hydrogen cyanide is the poison used in
gas chambers during the war. It is also in cigarettes. When it damages the tiny
hairs in the lung, which act as part of the cleaning mechanism in humans, it
results in toxic substances building up in the lungs. Cadmium (contained in cigarettes)
has been related to hair loss, anemia, headaches, immune disorders, kidney and
liver damage, low blood pressure and dry skin. Hexavelant chromium in tobacco,
also is toxic and been found to be carcinogenic (cancer-producing) and related
to many gastro-intestinal disorders.
Of course, we know how toxic lead is. According to an article written by Herbert
Needleman, published in the 1996 Journal of the American Medical Association
Research, the toxic metal of lead is "associated with aggressive behavior, delinquency,
and attention disorders in boys between the ages of 7 and 11. The IQ levels is
lowered by low levels of lead. Lead has been found to be related to anemia, cramps,
fatigue, headaches, insomnia, nausea, vomiting, and general weakness of the body.
Arsenic, used in white ant poison is also in cigarette tobacco.
Michael Castleman, managing editor of Medical Self Care magazine and the
author of two excellent articles reviewing research with cigarette smoke found
radioactive compounds in cigarettes. A sixteen-year scientific report stated: "Cigarettes
are radioactive." Steven R. Schechter, N.D., author of Fighting Radiation
with Foods, Herbs & Vitamins, states some startling news; that the pack-a-day
smoker is exposed to radiation in the amount estimated to be equal to approximately
300 chest x-rays per year!
Tar is a black, sticky substance that contains many poisonous chemicals. Tar
is the main cause of throat and lung cancer. Tar also causes the yellowish brown
stains on smoker's fingers, teeth and lung tissue and on the ceiling in rooms
where people smoke heavily.
There are three formula bath kits for detoxification. One of the bath kits is
used to detoxify industrial chemicals and pollutants and is called Environmental
Detox. One is specifically formulated for persons having problems with dental
mercury-amalgam poisoning in the body and is called appropriately, Dental Mercury
Detox. One is for you smokers and drug abusers and is called the Smoker's Drug
Detox Bath Kit. More recent kits are the Aluminum Detox often used in cases of
Alzheimer's and related memory difficulties; and the Arsenic Detox for removing
arsenic from the water, industrial pollution and insecticides. For the general
public and in-home baths, we have a general formula called Tox-Away Detox which
is a combination of several of the above formulas. Our newest formula, Clear-Out,
is a general overall detox kit. By taking ONE BATH, years.of accumulated toxic
chemicals and metals are removed and you can see the results yourself! The clay
turns from a light tan color to dark brown or black color and in some cases black
sticky tar-like substances are found at the bottom of the tub instead of clay!
