Edwin Low on Stress (Part 4: Why Do We Need to detox?)
http://www.ayurtox.com/index.htm?aff=y/156 When your body’s clogged with harmful toxins, you feel tired all the time, feel sick with all kinds of aches and flu and have a constant world-weariness that pulls out all the enthusiasm from your body. A detox program at this stage helps destroy all these harmful toxins and promotes good health. But there’s something that could obstruct your detox program from working. Do you know what it is? It’s stress!
You already know too much of stress causes a lot of damage to the body. But did you know stress could get in the way of all healing routines? When your mind feels tired and overburdened, how will your body work to fight off damaging foreign particles? Stress obstructs the working of your body’s natural immunity system and slows down development. Have you noticed, people who are overworked are almost always prone to all sorts of ailments and sicknesses?
Stress acts against the detox process too and doesn’t allow the body to fight against toxins. Overstressed people have poor digestive systems, low energy levels and feel nervous all the time. Any detox routine depends on the body’s ability to flush out toxins through excretion; when the digestive system’s poor, this becomes difficult. Stress also leads to an increase in toxicity because the stress-affected digestive system is not able to generate enough enzymes to aid digestion. As a result, toxins that are not controlled in the initial process of digestion are let loose in the body as free radicals that cause extensive damage.
In case you’re planning to detoxify your body, make sure you’re in an environment that’s free of stress or take conscious efforts to relieve your body of strain. This way, you may be sure of a healthy body as a result of your body detox program. Here are a few ways to unwind your body and reduce stress levels:
• Breathe right — This is the underlying principle of yoga. Breathing right could solve a lot of problems and free your mind. Inhale a lungful of air and let it out slowly. When you do this repeatedly, you’ll experience a calmness that makes your body and mind feel relaxed. You could also try meditating. This mental discipline takes your mind off factors causing stress and helps you relax.
• Taking a long, relaxing bath is an age-old stress relieving technique. Use some bathing salt or vinegar to lighten your mood further and to help in detox.
• Just a simple daily walk could free your mind from tension. Try any form of exercise to make your body healthy and keep your mind free. Regular exercises are also very important for detoxification.
• Sleep deprivation is one of the major causes for stress. Try to get at least 8 hours of sleep everyday. If you’re not able to sleep enough at night, take a mid day break and sleep for at least half an hour to free your mind from the tensions of the day. Enough rest time and sleep is very important to allow the body time for its natural healing process.
Just follow the above techniques to boost your mood and fight stress; now you can embark on your detox program for best results.

IBS Irritable Bowel Syndrome – Part 1 – Nutrition by Natalie
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) or spastic colon is a functional bowel disorder characterized by abdominal pain and changes in bowel habits which are more… not associated with any abnormalities seen on routine clinical testing. It is fairly common and makes up 20–50% of visits to gastroenterologists. Lower abdominal pain, and bloating associated with alteration of bowel habits and abdominal discomfort relieved with defecation are the most frequent symptoms.
IBS is highly prevalent in the Western world, but despite the advancement of many theories, no clear cause has yet been established.
Stress—feeling mentally or emotionally tense, troubled, angry, or overwhelmed—may trigger symptoms in people with IBS. One study found that women with IBS are more likely to report prior physical or sexual abuse; almost half of the patients reported prior abuse.
IBS is not fatal nor is it linked to the development of other serious bowel diseases. However, due to the chronic pain, discomfort, and other symptoms, work absenteeism, social phobias, and other negative quality-of-life effects can be common in more serious cases. Individuals who find a caring primary caregiver and/or sufficient self-help options should be able to develop a successful treatment program for their symptoms and lead normal lives.
