Are you toxic?….Yes you are…..
We just held our best makeover ever. Those of you that were there saw an amazing line up of healers dedicated to making the world a better place. We started our day with two world class athletes at a wrestling clinic at Heritage High School right here in Vancouver, Washington. Coach Mac was incredible from Heritage and his track record of training and coaching Olympians is awesome. I was in AWWWW, just watching Mr. Lee Kemp, 3 time world champion, and hearing his life story was breathtaking. It was an unbelievable honor to spend the day with him. Ms. Leigh Jaynes, who is training relentlessly for the 2012 Olympic team, was a refreshing spirit. She is the true American Hero and what a great person. I know she will take Gold in 2012 in London please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. (Makeover PICTURES)
Many of you left going WOW where do I start or what do I do? My first goal of the makeover was to get you aware that the current health model is not working. I am currently reading Dr. Weston Price’s book “Nutrition and Physical Degeneration.” An Eye opening story of the decline of human health and well being. After this weekend, it is even clearer to me that most people have no clue on what to do to get well and to stay well. 95% of all heath care dollars are spent on treating sickness and diseases. Only 5% is spent on health. That needs to change. Currently the average American spends approximately 5% on the promotion of health and wellness. This must change and is the entire focus of what we do and all the Maximized Living doctors’ main goal is to get you WELL and Keep you there for the REST of your life, not just when you have a health crisis or challenge.
I was watching CNN the other day at the gym on the treadmill and they were showing what the average American spends on health insurance each year. I was blow-away to find that it was over $15,000 per year and with the “New Proposed” plan in 2016 it will be in excess of 25,000.00. Many people are forced to get health insurance by an employer as a “benefit” but have to use the companies program. One of my patients said he is paying over $1,500 per month on a health insurance policy that he and his family rarely uses and he can’t get out of it unless he leaves his job. Paul Zan Pilsner wrote a book about what to do with insurance and I highly suggest you read it and apply the principals to your health and life.
Current trends show 30% of American obese and 60% overweight, what are we to do? With kids being sicker than ever and parents stressed more than ever, where do we start? Reducing the chemical stress burdens on your body is a great place to start. Anderson Cooper recently posted a video called, “Toxic Brew”. It is all about the chemical burdens being put on our bodies daily. You will get a glimpse of how all the “unregulated” and regulated chemicals are degenerating us at an alarming rate.
During the Maximized Living Makeover at the Vancouver, Washington Church of Christ I talked about the toxic top 10. I posted on my face book page, “Who wants to know about the toxic top ten?” Many people replied, “YES”, so here it is.
2. Oven Cleaner (Lye and Ammonia).
3. Laundry Detergent (Benzene – Causes Leukemia).
4. Floor and Furniture Polishers (Petroleum Distillates).
5. Air Fresheners (6 – Chemicals targeted by Gov. that hold the highest priority for neurtoxicity).
6. Hard-surface Cleaners - especially kitchen cleaners (Petroleum Surfactants – Cancer).
7. Antibacterial Cleaners and Soaps (Triclosan – Liver Damage).
8. Dry Cleaning (Perc. Known Carcinogen).
9. Carpet and Upholstery Cleaners (Perc.).
10. Toilet Bowl Cleaners (Hydrochloric Acid – Liver and Kidney Damage).
