examples of poisons in our air. The worst air pollution day is no match for synthetic carpet laid down with glue. We spend one third of our lives on a mattress. Do you know what yours is made from? If it’s not organic, you are sleeping on synthetics with flame retardants and insecticides. Are you eating organic but sleeping on a toxic mattress? Toxic detergents and fabric softeners also contribute the ever- increasing amount of disease from al- lergies to cancer. An often-overlooked source of chemicals is perfume and cologne. They are made from petro- leum. Mankind evolved by breathing air…nothing else. We must reduce these chemicals that are known car- cinogens and cause the inflammation leading to all disease. Your relatives 500 generations
ago did not have disease. Your DNA is okay. It has evolved over a bil- lion years and is pretty darn close to perfect. So, people should not blame their relatives for a pre-disposition to a particular disease. Rather, everyone should take responsibility to improve their overall health. Seek out natu- ral doctors that go after the cause of illness, not those that put a band-aid on your problems. Visit a true healer whether it’s an MD, DO, DC, ND and so on. Let them guide you off pharmaceuticals and over-the-counter medications. Get a massage. See an acupuncturist. Detox, detox, detox. The internet is the great equalizer. No longer are we beholden to the old, gray haired doc who says take two aspirin and call me in the morning. Learn about the natural cures that go after the cause.
