Today, we dump 4 billion pounds of toxic chemicals into the American environment each year and 72 million of them are cancer-causing. Monsanto’s product Roundup, or glyphosate – a pesticide that kills our beneficial microbes – has found its way into even our organic foods and rainwater, and there is mercury residue on the organic vegetables we eat from the coal-fired power plant emissions that cover America. (6) Needless to say, we need help! The body has evolved four protective barriers to make sure the enemy microbes and toxins do not infiltrate beyond our immune system’s barriers. When these barriers break down, the body’s primary defenses and immunity are weakened, and accelerated aging, degeneration and increased risk of disease can ensue. The four barriers are: The Gut & Intestinal Barrier The Lung Barrier The Skin Barrier The Blood-Brain and CSF-Brain Barrier ASSOCIATED ARTICLES: Know Your Melatonin Levels for Gut, Hormone, Bone and Detox Benefits-- https://lifespa.com/test-melatonin-gut-hormone-bone-detox-benefits/ Does Gut Bacteria Determine Obesity Risk?-- https://lifespa.com/gut-bacteria-determine-obesity-risk/ Gut Health by Body Type (Vata, Pitta, Kapha)-- https://lifespa.com/gut-health-body-type-vata-pitta-kapha/ A Slippery Elm Prebiotic Tea Formula – A Tea to Restore Gut Health-- https://lifespa.com/tea-psychic-bugs-slippery-elm-prebiotic-tea-formula/ 3 Steps to a Healthy Mouth, Heart & Immunity-- https://lifespa.com/3-steps-healthy-mouth-heart-immunity/ The Psycho-Physiology of Stress-- https://lifespa.com/the-psycho-physiology-of-stress/ The Science of Longevity: Top 3 Secrets-- https://lifespa.com/science-longevity-top-3-secrets/
