Okay, you guys… this is the first article in a series.
You’re getting bombarded with all kinds of info regarding radiation… some good, some bad, some alarmist, some scientific-based, some pure conjecture, and some plain old bad MIS-information.
We at Next Wave, hope to be a sane and gentle voice to help point you in a direction of research that makes sense for you personally.
Regardless of which source you choose to believe, there are some “healthy choices” you can make to help your body deal with low levels of radiation toxicity.
The worst that can happen as a result of this kind of approach is that your body may become healthier in general so it can deal with all toxins in a more natural, gentle, and healthy way… kinda like a “root cause” approach.
(What a novel idea!!!)
So let’s repeat that…
If you choose a healthy life style, regardless of whether your body must deal with radiation (or other toxins), your detox system may be more healthy in the long run and be able to deal with all toxins more readily.
Let’s set the stage…
Think of your detox system as a big ‘ole bucket.
All the toxic “stuff” you run into goes into this bucket…
Eventually this bucket gets filled to the brim, and the very next toxin that goes into the bucket OVERFLOWS the darned thing…
Most people tend to point to that “last thing in” as “the culprit”, when in effect, it was simply the last thing into the bucket!
Let’s use this “bucket” idea, as a way to look at your detox system.
If you control the things you CAN control, you keep the level of toxins in your “bucket” low enough so that when you run into something you can NOT control (e.g., perhaps low levels of radiation), there’s enough room in the bucket for the body to deal with it without “overflowing”.
Make sense so far?
Okay… then let’s move on…
How do you keep your bucket reasonably empty and how do you keep your detox system operating optimally?
You guys intuitively already know this stuff …
Really…
It’s no big mystery… and it’s deceivingly simple.
(This is beginning to sound like a mantra!)
Breathe clean air… Drink clean water… Eat clean food… oh yeah… and throw in a bit of clean exercise.
Here at Next Wave, we’ll bring you a series of short articles with easy information that will hopefully make sense to you as you do your own personal research regarding how to cope with the possibility of dealing with low levels of radiation toxicity.
In this article we start with “clean air”:
At this time, most of the respected regulatory agencies, environmental experts, and other respected scientists expect very low levels of radiation to hit the U.S. – in fact an article in The Orange County Register (18 March 2011) notes that atmospheric physicists expect radiation arriving on the West Coast of the U.S. to be so diluted that it would be “difficult to distinguish” and well below “normal background levels”. (LINK: Area experts see no risk from radiation on Page News 5 of Friday, March 18, 2011 issue of Freedom – Orange County Register)
Okay, even so… play devil’s advocate for a second.
Assume worst case scenario…
Or perhaps you just make a personal decision to stay indoors since radioactive particles may be carried by dust…
Having a HEPA filter in your home (and perhaps another on your desk at work) might be a good way to allay your concerns.
If this is your decision, then use a good HEPA filter to provide a clean-air-oasis for yourself.
There is no bad side effect to breathing good clean air – in fact, it will probably help unload your detox system which is like lowering the level in that bucket we mentioned earlier.
One of the best HEPA air filters on the market can be found at www.yournextwaveaffiliates.com
If you’re fortunate enough to already have a HEPA air filter, make sure the cartridge is clean… in fact, if your present filter is more than 6-9 months old, it’s probably a good idea to replace it now.
If you do nothing more than breathe filtered air while you sleep — and if that’s all you can control — you are still unloading your overall toxic burden (again “the bucket”.)
