Detoxification:

The concept of body cleansing has been with us for centuries. Today, many health professionals recognize this concept in the prevention of diseases. In fact, many believe that as our world becomes increasingly polluted with toxins found in the environment and the foods we eat, cleansing becomes more important.

A body overloaded with toxins can result in a number of symptoms including constipation, bloating, poor digestion, gas, fatigue, weight gain, excessive mucous, poor concentration, headaches, poor skin, poor memory, depression, body odour, and bad breath. In addition, some health professionals relate toxins to specific diseases. They believe chronic fatigue syndrome, multiple chemical sensitivity, and fibromyalgia (among many others) may be related to toxin exposure and build up.

While the liver remains one of the most important cleansing organs, others include the bowels (digestive system), kidneys, skin, lungs, and the lymphatic system. Although these were built to handle a certain amount of “natural” toxins (and can do this quite effectively), we have been exposed to thousands of new toxins since the Industrial Revolution that we have not had a chance to adapt to genetically. These can ultimately result in cancers and birth defects, which are becoming increasingly common.

Herbal supplementation, to eliminate toxins from the systems of the body, often in conjunction with other methods, has been used for ages, and is one of the most popular ways to cleanse.

Fibre has long been recognized as a necessity for maintaining bowel regularity and preventing constipation. Water-soluble fibre forms a gel in the intestine and has health benefits that include cholesterol reduction and blood sugar stabilization. Waterinsoluble fibre cannot be dissolved in water and, therefore, passes through our bodies undigested. It is the component responsible for scouring the intestine walls of waste matter, which helps reduce the risk of colon-related problems.

Bowel transit time is the duration it takes for food to move through and be eliminated from our digestive tract. It is an indication of how well our digestive tract is performing and is greatly influenced by fibre intake. Although the recommended daily intake of fibre is 26-35 g/day, the average Canadian consumes 4.5-11 g/day. Research has demonstrated that those with high fibre diets have lower incidences of colon cancer, appendicitis, and diverticulosis.

Because fibre is undigested, it is very low in calories and provides a greater feeling of satiety without increasing caloric intake. Furthermore, the stabilization in blood sugar may curb the desire to snack, a welcome benefit in any weight loss program.

Simply put, AIM Herbal Fiberblend® is one of the most valuable fibre and herbal products available today.

Also, soothing herbs protect the intestinal wall by supporting the mucous lining, and helps to stimulate the elimination of toxins from the body in a gentle, yet effective manner.
