Your Liver and Your Scale: A Best Kept Secret

Still trying to lose weight? For many, it's a struggle. But a little known fact about weight loss might be the missing link. It has to do with how your body works and when you understand the principle, it makes a lot of sense. Here is it: Your liver is your body's prime detoxification organ and its prime fat burning organ. Let me tell you why that's important.

Most people have diets that contain a lot of unnatural chemicals - which are essentially toxic to the body. Pesticide and herbicide residues are consumed with each non-organic meal, and your liver needs to detoxify these substances. Then, literally thousands of different chemicals are common in processed foods - and your liver also needs to detoxify those chemicals. In addition, we often apply numerous chemicals directly to our bodies in the form of lotions, cosmetics, and sunscreens - most of which is absorbed right into the body. The point is: When you create conditions where the liver is overwhelmed with the need to detoxify, your liver will have little time and energy to burn fat.

So, if your body's prime organ responsible for burning fat is overwhelmed with its "other" job of detoxification, where does that leave your weight loss efforts? For many: high, dry, and with a few pounds around the middle. Fortunately, you can change the equation to get your liver back on your side.

By eating a natural organic diet, adopting natural body care, and doing a total body cleanse, with a liver cleanse, you can eliminate the enormous stores of toxic waste that the average person's body carries - and dramatically reduce your incoming chemical load. Believe it or not, this combination can make weight loss fast and easy. Essentially, by removing much of your toxic burden, your liver can devote less energy to detoxification - and can make more time to burn fat.

Many people have never heard of body cleansing, but it's just cleaning the inside of your body. Think about this, if you didn’t clean your bathtub in twenty years, how would it look? Filthy might be the word you'd choose and it would be accurate! Our bodies are similar in their need for more than routine cleaning, because while we do have detoxification organs, they often need a little help - especially with the common diet and lifestyle habits of the 21st century.
