Mortar bulletEnhanced Digestion, Cleansing and Cellular Detoxification
(Natural Health)

A simple definition of detoxification is reducing the buildup of various poisonous substances in the body. Everyday, with every inhalation/exhalation, and excretion, the body tries to keep the body in a state of balance by keeping it clean. Good digestion is the basis of the good health of all of the other body systems. With the exceptions of injury, natural medicine believes that everything goes back to the integrity of the digestive system. In fact, one of the first tenets of natural medicine is, "death begins in the bowel". Natural medicine also states that cleansing and detoxification create a profound effect on enhancing overall good health. All indigenous cultures had structured methods of cleansing the body, including: sweat lodges, fasting, and intestinal cleansing and detoxification. This prepared them for the winter months and avoiding contagious illnesses. The Caucasian race and those it has influenced have ignored these timeless principles with sad consequences. In the 21st century we have more pollution, poor foods, bad water, thousands of untested chemicals, and bio-hazards than ever before in man's history.

Dr. Purcell will teach you many principles of digestion as taught by natural medicine. She will also teach you how to identify and avoid many toxic substances in your daily lives, and show you how to cleanse and detoxify your organ systems to improve your overall health.

This topic will be tailor-made for your organization.

Mortar bulletDigestive Disorders and Your Health (Natural Health)

One of the first tenets of natural medicine is digestive health. There is a famous quote, "Death begins in the bowel" and in natural medicine we believe that everything starts with the complete digestive process.

The pharmaceutical industry is convincing us that we have many new digestive disorders, like Acid Reflux Disease, Heartburn, Diarrhea and more, that are only "cured" with medications. Every third advertisement on TV is a pharmaceutical ad. There appears to be a great investment in Americans being sick.

This topic will be tailor-made for your organization.

In this workshop, Dr. Purcell will present the natural health side of digestion and give the participants some choices. For example:

  • What is a digestive disorder and how do you know that you have one?
  • What are the digestive organs and what do they do?
  • What is the purpose of enzymes? Do you need to take them?
  • Are liver detoxification and intestinal cleansing beneficial? When are they not?
  • Bloating. gas, that heavy feeling after meals...what is that?
  • What is Candidiasis?
  • Proper food combining...is that necessary for digestion?
  • Gut - Brain connection...is there one?
