OXIDATION

The process; how nutrients from our diet are converted into energy in the body is a process called OXIDATION.

​

Things to know about OXIDATION:

​

• We excrete the byproducts of oxidation via breath/water - since these byproducts are water and CO2

• Oxidative stress comes from the body's lack of nutrients and cells are not getting those nutrients, then we feel fatigue and lethargy. When our body can not excrete byproducts because of this lack, this is oxidative stress.

• Colorful plants clean up the free radicals from the oxidative stress. We don't want the radicals running free! They wreak havoc on the body!

• Chronic fatigue is one of the most noticeable signs you are suffering from oxidative stress.

• DETOXIFICATION is a metabolic process when the body uses enzymes to change toxins into less toxic substances that can be removed more easily

• Our detox organs are: SKIN, LIVER, KIDNEYS, LUNGS & COLON

• FOOD HOLDS THE KEY TO PHYSIOLOGICAL POTENTIAL
