Why are humans so unhealthy? Who doesn't know someone who has (or had) cancer, alzheimers or suffers from one or more of a myriad of debilitating conditions? Why is it that people who seem to do all the right things still develop diseases?
It appears we humans have outsmarted ourselves again. For all our brilliant advances, we have turned our mudball into a toxic soup that assails us at every angle. Usually I find there are two or more sides polarized and arguing about the cost/benefit of what created any given toxin, such as... we may have some radioactive waste to deal with but just look at all the clean electricity it has bestowed upon the lucky <cough, cough> parts of the world. After all, if we are all caught up in arguing this or that viewpoint, we aren't asking the other questions.
Other questions might include: how is this affecting my health on a daily basis? What can I do to mitigate this? Have I been able to identify the sources and remove or lessen them to the extent I am able? How would I even go about beginning to accomplish this?
Slowly but surely, as I weed through these topics, I am finding there are indeed many choices we have before us. Transforming my own life from toxic to a state of wellness is truly the 800 pound elephant before me. One of my favorite "Cogisms" remains: "How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time."
I read so many articles, publications from doctors and professionals, and alternative sources that list overwhelming sources and remedies which collectively leave me with the impression that to combat all the potential health hazards I would need to be on a desert island. It would be impossible for me to live a life without cell phone, seafood, plastic, any appliance emitting EMFs including computers, exposure to some processed foods... the list goes on. For years I thought why bother? It seemed an impossible task. I am learning it is not if I do it one bite at a time.
