Why Detox?

By: Karina Stewart

Why Detoxify?

Every day we are exposed to external toxins from our environment and internal toxins produced as the byproduct of our digestive and metabolic processes. Toxic and unwanted inorgranic chemicals are found in our foods, water and air in the form of fertilizers, pesticides, heavy metals and other pollutants. Working in climate controlled environment is a source of airborne microorganisms and debris and home and work environments expose us to paint and carpet fumes. Everything from plastic containers to drycleaned clothes to skin and haircare products and cosmetics bombard our bodies with unwanted pollutants. All of these fall in the category of environmental toxins.

Our bodies also produce unwanted substances as the normal byproduct of our digestion and metabolism. In addition to this, we can accumulate waste products of any infectious microrganisms living in our bodies. If our body has the proper nutrition in sufficient quantities to provide a healthy biochemistry and if the organs of elimination and detoxification are functioning at optimal levels, our body is able to eliminate these unwanted substances safely and efficiently through cellular processes via the main organs of detoxification; skin, bowels, liver, kidneys and lungs. This manifests as elimination through perspiration, bowel elimination, urination and respiration. However, if the body is producing and taking in more toxins than it can safely eliminate, a state of chronic toxicity may occur.

Most chronic illnesses are the result of a combination of factors. The main contributing factors, however, can be attributed to the presence of unwanted substances in the body or the lack of needed substances in the body and, in many cases, a combination of both of these factors. When the body has been overburdened with exogenous (external) and endogenous (internal) toxic substances for a prolonged period of time, it loses its capacity to detoxify at the same rate that toxins are being produced and ingested. It is under these unnatural conditions that we begin to manifest symptoms of being overloaded with toxicity and our organs are weakened. It is thought by many natural health professionals that this prolonged state of toxicity undermines organ and cellular function and is the underlying cause of many chronic diseases.

The presence of unwanted substances in the body is a very common root of illness. The process of eliminating unwanted substances from the body at the cellular level addresses and corrects this imbalance. However, for effective detoxification it is essential to provide the body with the necessary dietary substances so that the body can perform this important and natural function. This is exactly what we will be doing on the program.

"Detoxification" refers to the body's ability to neutralize and safely eliminate harmful chemicals within the body. The detoxification program is designed to enhance the body's innate ability to handle toxins. While it is unrealistic and virtually impossible to eliminate external toxins completely, the body can be unburdened and supported in its natural function of detoxification so that it is better able to cope with the daily stresses of modern life and thereby establish a higher level of health.

Detoxification has a beneficial effect on most chronic illnesses because it has an impact on almost all systems of the body: cardiovascular, nervous, immune, respiratory, reproductive, gastrointestinal, urinary, skin, musculoskeletal and endocrine.

Detoxification is recommended for individuals who:

Have symptoms of toxicity
Have chronic digestive problems
Have impaired liver function due to lifestyle (alcohol, toxic exposure, poor eating habits, high stress, chemical exposure in the workplace)
Have impaired liver function due to chronic illness (hepatitis, jaundice, fatty liver)
Are on medications affecting the liver
Are on hormone replacement therapy
Have PMS and moodiness
Have chronic headaches
Have chronic skin conditions
Have gallbladder pathology
Have chronic poor lifestyle habits
Common symptoms alleviated by detoxification may include:
Headaches
Stiff, aching joints and muscles
Susceptibility to infections
Respiratory difficulties
Allergies
Digestive problems
Constipation
Acne
Low energy and fatigue
Restlessness and irritability
Mental fogginess
Inability to concentrate
Depression and moodiness
Poor quality sleep and insomnia

Benefits of Detoxification

These are some of the possible results you can expect to experience:

A feeling of revitalisation
Increased energy, vitality and stamina
Increased immunity and resistance to infections and illness
Reduced allergy symptoms
Increased metabolism and metabolic balancing for weight control
Weight loss
Improved digestive functions such as absorption and elimination
Balanced water metabolism and reduction in fluid retention and uric acid

b) Il Hwa is now bringing to Paranaque Il Hwa ginseng products so there’s no need for Il Hwa patrons to travel to our Las Pinas branch just to avail of Il Hwa ginseng products.

A new Il Hwa branch is being opened in SM Sucat last July 28 purposely to bring to Paranaque Il Hwa ginseng products. Right now, Ginseng users from Paranaque no longer need to travel far to our SM Southmall (Las Pinas) branch just to avail of our Il Hwa ginseng products.

Here’s how to go to SM Sucat:

If your coming from Imus or Bacoor - take a bus or jeepney bound for Baclaran. Get down when you reach Coastal Mall. At the KFC, wait for a jeepney or FX with Sucat signboard. It will pass by SM Sucat.

If you’re from Imus, you can also take jeepney with signboard Kabihasnan/Sucat. From Kabihasnan, you can take a jeepney going to Sucat/Superhighway, then take another jeepney going to SM Sucat.

If you’re from Alabang/Zapote - take a jeepney or FX bound for Alabang/Superhighway junction, then another bus going to SM Sucat.

There are two ways of getting to SM Sucat if you’re coming from Makati:

Take a bus with Bicutan, Sucat, Alabang sign. Tell the conductor that you’re going to Sucat and ask him to remind you if you’re already there. When you’re already in Sucat, take a jeepney with Baclaran or Kabihasnan signboard, or you can ride an FX with the same signboard. Just ask the driver to drop you off in SM Sucat.
From Magallanes corner EDSA ride a southbound Jeepney (Kanan signboard) to SM Sucat.

From Taft Avenue - a jeepney terminal is located beneath the LRT EDSA station. Take the jeepney with signboard DOST via Skyway. It will pass by SM Sucat. Once you reach SM Sucat, Il Hwa Korean Ginseng shop is located at the third floor, main building.
