Location: Carolina Center for Integrative Medicine, 4505 Fair Meadow Lane, Suite 111, Raleigh

Overview:  Toxic chemicals and heavy metals saturate the environment in which we live, and there is no way to avoid them completely.  For example, PCB's have been found in the tissues of every kind of living creature on earth and automobile exhaust contains mercury, benzene, and carbon monoxide.  Much of the body’s toxic burden is also related to toxins generated from within, as a result of gut infections and other factors.  Several organs—notably the colon and liver—participate in detoxification processes that are essential to your health and vitality.  Without proper detoxification, your health usually shows a steady decline.  During this presentation, you will discover methods to increase the functioning of the colon, liver, and other detox organs in order to further reduce your body’s burden of toxins and improve cellular efficiency.  We will explore the cleansing benefits of targeted nutritional and herbal products, chelation therapy, and colon hydrotherapy, and how combinations of these strategies can yield the best results.
