What are toxins?

Toxins are substances that have harmful effects on the body. They come from food, water, air, from chemicals used to grow and process food, coffee, sugar, pre-packaged foods and junk foods. The number of toxins entering your bodies is reaching unprecedented levels and their cumulative effect on our health is unknown. Toxins also originate from within the bodies regular metabolism and are produced by the mind in the form of unhealthy emotions.

Normally, a person can process these toxins in the liver, kidneys and other organs and eliminate them in the feces, urine, and sweat. Dehydration, lack of exercise, stress, anxiety, lack of dietary fibre and constipation, insufficient consumption of fresh vegetables and fruit, and the cumulative effect of chemicals in our food are just some of the common lifestyle factors that impair normal detoxification and cause toxins to hang around in our digestive, lymphatic, skin, and other places in our body where they can cause damage. Our menu is free of red meat, white sugar, white flour, white salt, soda, alcohol, coffee.
