With the advancement of science, technology, medicine and industry, there has been incredible progress to mankind. However, this progress has taken a toll on the human body through the contamination of our atmosphere and water, and through the pollution and depletion of our soil and foods. Even though the human body has the amazing ability to adapt, these contaminants are accumulating faster than our bodies are able to handle them. This toxic burden is resulting in a myriad of chronic illnesses that stem from altered metabolism, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances and enzyme dysfunction.

Toxins derive from several sources that affect the physical body, mental sharpness and acuity, and the emotional and spiritual being. The idea behind a thorough detoxification program is to promote complete elimination of toxins and wastes through every exit pathway of the body. Naturopathic medicine ensures that detoxification programs are compiled to cater to the individual based on the patient’s medical history and requirements. Patients who begin their naturopathic program with a detoxification protocol often experience an alleviation of their health symptoms, increased energy, fat loss, proper sleep patterns and increased mental acuity.
