Your first line of defense against toxins is your liver. It functions like a filter in preventing toxic substances from getting into your blood stream. Unfortunately, our lives are full of toxins such as air pollution, pesticides, artificial hormones and more. Thus, our liver has a larger task of removing our body’s toxins and wastes on a daily basis.

FDA Finally Admits Chicken Meat Contains Cancer-Causing Arsenic
If you are old enough you can remember when all chicken in the US was basically organic. I can remember when Kentucky Fried Chicken was even good chicken! But then in the late 80’s and early 90’s (along with a name change) the chicken became gelatinous with less meat on the bone and more tendons.

Many of these techniques resulted in radically changing the nutritional value of chicken… and its safety!
Diffusing Siberian Fir Essential Oil Makes The Air in your House Completely Free of Microbial Pathogens.
Though they may look the same, not all pine trees are equal. Such is the case with the Siberian Fir tree (also known as Abies Sibirica). To the Sumerians, whose civilization was a precursor to the modern world yet remains clouded in mystery, the Siberian Fir was a sacred tree. It was viewed as a symbol of power, grandeur and immortality. This is confirmed by writing on clay tablets from about 7,000 years ago.
The reason ancient cultures valued this pine so highly was due to its medicinal and therapeutic properties. Sumerians would make broths, compresses and primitive Band-Aids with the oils and saps from this tree. The anti-bacterial and fungal properties of the Siberian Fir are amazing. In fact, in forests where this tree grows, the air is basically completely free of microbial pathogens.
