Town water is acidic and full of pollutants. It is usually contains harmful chemicals & metals such as chlorine, mutagens, fluoride, lead and iron. Chlorine is a potent carcinogen and used to kill parasites and disinfect water. With fluoride and heavy metals damaging health.

It’s an accepted fact that our tap water, filled with industrial waste and discarded pharmaceuticals, requires intense filtering for optimum health. It’s also true that many people aren’t aware of exactly what different types of water filters can and can’t remove. So, the first part of any good water treatment involves the filtering of the incoming water supply.

The first thing a water ionizer does to your input tap water is filter it using a combination of bacteriological and particulate control incorporating silver-activated charcoal, the most accepted and proven method on the market. Your water passes through an ultra-fine Biostone Filter which removes the following:

  • Pesticides
  • Trihalomethanes

Cleansing, Detoxification and Fasting are  therapuitic modalities that have been practised for thousands of years.  In Ancient times it was noted that Hippocrates, Buddha,  and Pythagoras , just to name a few, all used fasting as a way to gain enlightenment and purify the body.

The one and only solution to pollution is purification.

Pollution is a basic fact of life.  No one is immune to it.  Although the human body is designed to cleanse itself naturally of the normal waste products of digestion and metabolism, it is clearly not equipped to deal with the additional toxic overload from chemical preservatives and pesticides, pharmaceutical drugs and artificial foods, and other sources of internal toxicity that have become common in modern lifestyles.  This internal pollution is the major cause of disease, degeneration, and a foreshortened life span in our modern world.

Toxemia in the body and in the blood can over years contribute to a chronic build up of toxic waste matter that slowly filters into the blood and organs and hence cause chronic disease. The only real way to clean up the internal environment is to allow the purification systems of the body to be stimulated by undergoing a therapeutic detox ir cleansing program. Fortunately a systemic detox can be done simply, quickly and efficiently.  It is recommended to do a three to seven day organic juice fasting program with colonic hydrotherapy on a yearly basis to keep your systemic microcosm clear and free from accumulated toxic build up and disease.

It takes approximately 3 days for toxins to be eliminated from the organs and 7 to 10 days to purify the bloodstream.

The first and foremost strategy in any detox program is to flush acid residues out of the lymphatic system, blood, and other bodily fluids, all of which should be slightly alkaline.  Almost all toxins in the body are acidic, and these acids must therefore be neutralized and flushed out of the system to restore normal alkaline balance to the blood and other bodily fluids.

Byron Bay Detox Retreats have regular exclusive detox programs focusing on seven day organic juice cleansing to assist in the stimulation of the detox pathways to regain homeostasis within the delicate microcosm of our human temple.  Please visit our website for upcoming dates, programs and venues in Byron Bay and Overseas.

Our beautiful planet is rapidly becoming dangerously polluted.  And so are we!  Most of these toxins are substances that we can’t see, taste or smell.  They are in the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat.  If we work in an industrialised area, live in a busy city, or work with chemicals our exposure is even higher.  Did you know that we are actually born with toxins in our body passed on to us from our mothers?  This is a crisis of global proportion.

These pollutants damage our body’s natural ability to function, protect and heal itself, leaving us at risk of developing more serious illnesses and disease!

Nature has provided us with a natural defense ally against pollution – zeolites!  These beautiful crystals have a molecular structure like a little empty cage.  The cage attracts and traps heavy metals, toxins, pesticides, viruses and bacteria and safely removes them from our body.  They have been used safely for hundreds of years as a natural detoxifier.  Now scientists have patented (add a link to the patent) a process to put these natural zeolites into a powerful activated liquid form that is 100% safe and can be easily taken by adults, children, even pets.  And the evidence shows that  – it works!!!  This amazing product was patented on September 11. 2001, and for many spiritually aware people, this date is not lost on them.  This is a tremendous gift to have come from such a terrible day.

Zeolites have been proven to:

  • Chelate and remove toxins and heavy metals from the body
  • Strong anti-viral agent that actually keeps viruses from forming
  • Powerful digestive aid
  • Incredibly potent antioxidant
  • Creates a natural buffer in the system of a blood pH between 7.35 and 7.45 (which is the perfect blood pH)
  • Captures triggering antigens, which cause allergies, migraines, and asthma

Some of its additional benefits include:

  • Increases energy levels and immune function
  • Promotes a sense of well being, mental clarity, peace and happiness due to the removal of heavy metals and an increase in serotonin.
  • improves liver function

Toxins are everywhere and we are bombarded no matter how healthy our diet and lifestyle is.

Toxins come from drugs, heavy metals, household chemicals & solvents, infections, herbicides & pesticides, air pollution, alcohol, tobacco, water pollution, caffeine, emotional stress and negative emotions.

Symptoms such as headaches, aches & pains, bad breath & body odour, poor concentration, allergies, skin problems, depression, lowered immunity, fatigue, constipation, anxiety, insomnia and weight issues indicate a system overloaded by toxins.

Juice  fasting with supportive modalities promote detoxification, eliminate toxins and allows self healing of these dis-ease processes as the mind, body and spirit is rebalanced.

Eliminate toxins safely & efficiently
