How toxic are you?

Health can be measured in ways other than blood pressure readings, stress tests, or lab analysis. Many health problems have been definitively linked with exposure to specific toxins, including those that we expose ourselves to by our lifestyle choices. Ask yourself simple questions regarding your mood, bodily functions, environment, and daily life for a personal review of signs indicating toxic stress.

Poor health results from poor cellular functioning that disrupts organ activity and allows bacteria and viruses to gain a foothold. What kinds of obstacles do your cells encounter that disable their ability top work as they should? Does your body have the ability to clean house by properly eliminating toxins and waste products?
