Now that autumn is approaching, it is a great time for thinking about supporting your family’s health and increasing their resistance to the seasonal bugs, especially flu.

Would you like to find out what is really making you sensitive to pollens or other allergens?

So often, the pollen or cat hair is merely a trigger for an uncomfortable reaction; however the real cause is likely to be a build up of  toxic metals and  chemicals from the thousands surrounding you in your home and work environment.

If you are typical of the average woman (or man), you are  using well over 200 chemicals on your body every day. Look at the long list of ingredients on just your shampoo or shower gel, most of which are harsh, harmful, synthetic chemicals . These can disrupt your hormones, damage your nervous system and prevent the uptake of nutrients from your diet.

60% of what you put on your skin is absorbed into your body; your scalp and mucous membranes in your mouth  being particularly efficient. So it makes sense to choose  carefully what you put on your scalp and in your mouth. See Home Environment and Natural Personal Care Products to find out what to look out for when choosing items to use.

Do you take great care about avoiding synthetic chemicals and using plant based personal care products, but still suffer from sensitivities?
The issue for you is likely to be a problem with your detoxing organs such as the liver, gall bladder and kidneys. If they are not working well, this will lead to a build up of toxins in all parts of your body and a lack of nutrients needed for your all body systems to operate effectively. This can contribute  to allergies and sensitivities, joint pain, low energy, poor mental functioning, such as brain fog and depression.

Could exposure to electro-smog be a cause of your sensitivities?
In her practice, Hellis finds that reducing your exposure to radiation from cordless and mobile phones and  wi-fi, while using certain electromagnetic protection devices can lessen the severity and frequency of reactions. You will also be given specific homeopathic medicines for your symptoms to raise your tolerance of the  susbtances which affect you.

• Which personal care and cleaning  products you use are causing a build up of toxicity in your organs, disrupting your hormones or weakening your immune system?
• Which personal care products are beneficial to your body?
• If your organs of elimination are working efficiently
• What the priorities are for you to improve elimination of toxins from your body so that your sensitivities are reduced and your energy levels increase?
