Its Toxic!

BEEP!BEEP! -HIGH ALERT-BEEP!BEEP!

Gosh! Have you wondered how many toxins we are carrying within our body? I’m not talking about the biological waste /toxic here. I’m sure we all are aware of that one :P … but this is something that absolutely gobsmacked me. Check this out!
Our generation can’t even possibly think of living without mobile phones and laptops/computers. It feels strange to be without one. My friend told me once that he feels naked without his cell phone, handicapped without his laptop, zoned out without his TV and lost without his i-pod. Technolgoy has sure made life easier, entertaining and worthwhile, but its true that every coin as two sides.
These electronic life lines of our’s emit electromagnetic fields (EMFs).  On the other hand our body and mind is like a sponge. It absorbs anything and everything its exposed to. :(  These radiations have proved to be very harmful to us to an extent that they can increases stress levels in our body, cause head ache, migraine symptoms, speed up the aging process and the list can go on ….
Suggestion:

  • Avoid carrying mobile phones in your pockets, or keeping them near your head while sleeping.
  • Don't put a laptop directly on your lap for prolonged hours cos laptops emit heavy radiation and this causes damage to our reproductive organs. :(
  • Keep a green leafy plant next to your laptop on your desk. Plants are able to absorb these radiations which saves you!Excercise and sweat it out.
Even perfumes and scented body lotions are readily absorbed by our skin and this adds to the toxic accumulation in our body.

Suggestions:

  • Please do not put sooo much perfume that makes others suspect that you are trying to cover up for the 3 days shower you didnt take. 
  • Try not using body lotions with very strong fragrance.
  • Use deodorants that are lead and aluminum free.
  • Invest a little in some good quality make up. They seems to have a conscience.
    Dont get fooled by the general notion that “bottled water” is the safest you can get. Just give it a thought. First of all, the bottle is PLASTIC. No matter what quality of plastic it is – it is still plastic and its very harmful for our comsumption. Secondly, imagine how many miles and countries this water would have travelled in trucks and vans to get to your retailer. In the process it is exposed to different weather conditions especially heat, by which the plastic chemicals slowly emulsify with the water properties making it toxic!   
    Suggestions:

    • Store water in glass containers/jugs.
    • Tap water might be recycled and safe to drink in most countries. It might be cleaned and disinfected but it’s not detoxified. This is because corrosion  inhibitors are added to the water and we just seem to gulp it all down! Our body finds it very hard to get rid of these chemicals so it toxifies. It’s recommended to boil the water before consumption as it breaks down these elements and reduces its impact on our body.
