Page 1 of 2  Recognizing the heavy and growing burden of diseases, illness and stress in society, Cleanse and Nourish was launched to create a harmony and balance in the body. Accumulation of environmental pollutants contributes to unnecessary stress on the body particularly the organs. Stressful situations trigger the body s fight or flight response, a biochemical reaction that puts the body on emergency mode and full red alert. The body can tolerate a great deal amount of stress however, if too much stressors such as caffeine, alcohol, tobacco, medications and heavy metals enters the body, the physical and mental health can be compromised disrupting the bodys immune and circulatory system. Thus the body becomes less efficient in eliminating toxins and protecting itself from various diseases. The need for cleansing is to reduce the workload of the body particularly the digestive system, enabling the body to perform more efficiently while stimulating the other parts of the organs to restore its natural ability to rid itself of toxic waste. According to World Health Organization (W.H.O) on Global Strategy on Diet, Physical Activity and Health; it states "Unhealthy diet and physical inactivity are thus among the leading causes of non-communicable diseases including cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, high concentrations of cholesterol in the blood, type 2 diabetes, certain types of cancer, overweight and obesity". Factors that increase the risks of non-communicable disease include elevated consumption of energy-dense, nutrient -poor foods that are high in fat, sugar and salt; reduced levels of physical activity at home, at school, at work and use of tobacco. |
