What are some signs that may indicate an overload of toxins?
Nerves – Tingling in hands and feet, muscle spasms, and mood alterations – including anxiety, aggression, and even depression. Immune system – An over stimulated system may lead to new allergies or the aggravation of existing ones. – An under-active system will lead to infections: coughs, colds, flu with greater frequency and severity. Hormones – Blood sugar imbalances due to insulin insensitivity. This may cause weight gain, especially the so-called “spare tire” around the middle of the body. – PMS, premature menopause, and the male equivalent – andropause. – Adrenal stress, caused in part by toxic overload, can lead to an inability to handle physical and emotional stress, as well as a dependence on caffeinated sodas and coffee to keep energy levels up. – May contribute to thyroid dysfunction, which can often cause cold hands and feet, heat intolerance, lack of energy, dry skin, weight gain, constipation, and depression.
