What are the adverse effects of environmental toxins on our bodies?

1,Disruption of hormonal balance

The liver constantly detoxifies toxins, but its detoxification function declines when it is overloaded with too many toxins. The liver's original metabolic function then deteriorates, resulting in hormonal imbalance. Hormonal imbalance can cause menstrual irregularities, PMS, menopausal disorders, and infertility.

Among environmental pollutants, BPA and dioxin are called hormone disruptors. Hormone disrupters create imbalances in the body's natural hormones. Hormonal imbalances are responsible for menstrual cramps and irregular periods in females, infertility in males and females, low testosterone, chronic fatigue, and more.

2,Damage to our gene

Chemicals and heavy metals that accumulate in the body release large amounts of free radicals and reactive oxygen species. Antioxidants are needed to suppress these free radicals, but in a toxin-accumulated situation, there is a chronic lack of antioxidants. Free radicals not only damage cells, but they also damage genes. Damaged genes are unable to function correctly, leading to cancer. It is undeniable that the rapid increase in the number of cancer patients in recent decades is primarily due to environmental pollution and toxins that have accumulated in the body.

3,Chronic inflammation    

Various toxins directly stimulate the immune system, causing an inflammatory response. Toxins that produce large amounts of free radicals also lead to antioxidant deficiencies. In particular, a lack of the essential antioxidant glutathione makes it challenging to control inflammation and stop allergies, dermatitis, arthritis, and other inflammations. Chronic inflammation can lead to various diseases (autoimmune diseases, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's, cancer, etc.).

4,Impact on metabolism and body shape

The body cannot produce enough energy and tends to become fatigued. Fat is then quickly accumulated in the body.

Among the substances stored in the body are toxic substances called obesogens, which increase the number and size of fat cells. As these chemicals accumulate, the body stores fat even when calories are restricted.
