I truly believe that the human body is God’s masterpiece. Everything in it has a specific purpose and function. Composed of approximately 100 trillion cells, bone marrow that creates 2.5 million new red blood cells every second, 60,000 miles of blood vessels, 206 bones, an average human body contains enough: iron to make a 3 inch nail, sulfur to kill all the fleas on an average dog, carbon to make 900 pencils, potassium to fire a toy cannon, fat to make 7 bars of soap, phosphorous to make 2,200 match heads, and water to fill a ten-gallon tank. Every hair follicle has its own individual muscle. We have between 2000 and 5000 taste. Each taste bud contains 50 to 100 taste receptor cells.

Most importantly, this amazing system is built to detoxify, heal and regenerate itself. The key to optimum health, beauty and vitality is knowing and understanding the seven channels of elimination.

1) The liver is the body’s factory. It metabolizes food, filters toxins and converts ingredients into substances that are needed in all parts of the body. It produces bile, which breaks down fat, purifies blood and dismantles toxins. The liver builds chemicals that your body needs to stay healthy, and breaks down harmful substances like alcohol and other toxic (poisonous) chemicals

2) Kidneys remove water and solutes, help regulate blood pH and remove toxic waste from the blood.

3) Lungs supply the body with oxygen and remove carbon dioxide.

4) The skin is the largest organ of the body. It expels significant amounts of cellular waste through sweat glands and mucus secretions. By sweating naturally, you assist in cleansing the skin and keeping it elastic and healthy.

5) The lymphatic system picks up intracellular waste and moves it into the blood stream, which delivers the waste to the organs of elimination. It also protects us from toxins and foreign invaders through white blood cells.

6) The colon serves the function of transporting waste out of the body. Hydration of the digestive system will improve colon health. A healthy colon breaks down the various nutrients you consume within a day.

7) Blood is a liquid organ which transfers and transports substances throughout the body. It delivers the needed nutrition to various parts of the body. Red clover and chlorella are wonderful natural cleansers of the blood system. A regular exercise routine stimulates the circulatory system and assists the body in eliminating waste.

Our primary organs for detoxification need the right foods to function optimally. The Green Secret’s list of foods that cleanse and nourish the seven channels of detoxification:

Whole Foods have not had any of their edible elements removed by processing, and do not contain foreign ingredients (additives or other artificial ingredients). They contain more fiber for cleansing, which binds with toxins, stabilizes blood sugar and provides adequate vitamins and minerals

Live Foods (uncooked or processed in any way to destroy enzymes and other nutrients)such as raw fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds and grains, which have the potential to sprout and create new life.

Vegetables: Green leafies such as malunggay, ampalaya, okra, string beans, saluyot, alugbati, asparagus, sugar beets, broccoli, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, celery, green peas, onions, radish, seaweed, spinach, squash, watercress and zucchini.

Fruits: avocado, guava, pineapple, mango, watermelon, papaya, pomelo, guyabano, passion fruit, and banana.
Whole Grains: brown or black rice, quinoa, and wild rice.

Legumes: beans, lentils, split peas and mongo
