This is the second part of Matt Monarchs article on "Toxins In/Toxins Out"
His first article has had a great response by people just learning to see themselves as an organism that is, what it eats.

TOXINS IN/TOXINS OUT part II
By Matt Monarch Our raw foods mentor
It seems that a VAST number of people got inspired by my article from two weeks ago entitled, "Toxins In, Toxins Out". In that article I discussed that detoxification is a natural, ongoing body process that is continually in motion, no matter what type of diet you eat. I believe that one of the reasons people were motivated by this article is because they realized that they will be going through detoxification whatever they eat, whether it's a 100% Raw Food Diet or a Standard American Diet; so they thought that they may as well choose a healthier route.
I have heard of many people attempting to go raw now, after reading that article. This article today is a kind of sequel to "Toxins In, Toxins Out", so if you haven't read that first article yet, it might be a good idea to do so, HERE. The purpose of this article today is to shed light on the difference between detoxification when you are in the overall process of becoming cleaner compared to when you are on a gradual trajectory to becoming more toxic, while at the same time hopefully giving you some extra inspiration and motivation to plow on forward.
In the previous article, we stated that a person is either becoming cleaner or more toxic every single day, based on whether they are eating less or more than their average consistent diet. When a person is eating more than their average consistent diet, they are gradually becoming more toxic and the detoxification that they experience usually doesn't have the opportunity to go much deeper than what they consumed the day before. However, if you start to eat less than your consistent diet, you can easily detox what you ingested the day before, PLUS you can start to move onto older waste matter that has built up in your cells, bloodstream and body in general.
This older waste matter is usually MUCH more concentrated and uncomfortable to release than the simple elimination of residues from your daily diet. For most of us, we have been building up this kind of toxic old material within our bodies for quite some time. Instead of this old waste matter being COMPLETELY visible in your appearance, one way your body stores away this toxic waste matter is in a gaseous form within your cells. This built-up storage of toxins within the cells enables the body to adapt to certain conditions more easily, such as toxic diets, poor air conditions and other toxic situations. If you consistently fill up your body with toxins, instead of these toxins always showing up in your outward appearance, these toxins can instead become more and more concentrated within your cells and body. Now, if you "open the floodgates" by improving your diet, a miraculous outpouring of concentrated DENSE toxins is released. The only way to stop this outpouring is to take a step backwards and eat along the lines of your previous diet, so that you continue to get your "fix", just like the heroin addict desperately looking for a hit.

This outpouring of CONCENTRATED toxins when a person improves their diet is the reason why people get sick when they eat a 100% Raw Food Diet. It is also one of the reasons why many raw foodists report to have outrageous gas elimination that sometimes burns and smells like death. The outpour of these CONCENTRATED toxins is, I feel, the number one reason why people have a challenging time going 100% Raw. For me, the practice of periodic colon hydrotherapy has been the primary reason I have been able to succeed on a 100% Raw Food Diet for almost 14 years now, as hydrotherapy pulls these CONCENTRATED toxins right out. We go raw and we are scrambling around and shaking for our fix of the toxins from our previous addictive diet. Although not as extreme, on a physiological level, we are going through withdrawals just like a heroin addict goes through withdrawals when eliminating heroin.
Here is an excerpt from my FAVORITE raw food book on the planet, 'Man's Higher Consciousness'; a staff nurse in a certain hospital accepting drug addicts tells of her experience in caring for such patients. She says:
"If I had ever been tempted to take drugs, I had discarded the idea quickly after working in a hospital ward for drug addicts for the past two years. There can be no torment of the damned that exceeds the agonizing pains that a drug addict goes through to conquer the habit.
All our patients entered the hospital ward voluntarily, but as they were not released until completely off the drug, it was a pitiful sight to watch them. The first day they were bolstered up by friends' and relatives' good wishes, and had mustered up every bit of will-power that the drugs had left them. By the second or third day all will-power had vanished as the dosage of the drug was slowly reduced, and they became abject, tortured, screaming idiots as their nerves begged for the drug."
It is the same process with food. Many people seem to have no real concept of how far we've come with our diets in the opposite direction from what man may have originally consumed. If I were to take a shot of heroin right now, it would surely kill me. However, in one generation a human can build up tolerance to be able to handle quite a bit of heroin. It wouldn't be erroneous to say that over MANY generations, man has adapted SO FAR from his original diet that we would be going through detoxification quite intensely by choosing to eat raw. Luigi Cornaro lived on 12oz of food per day in the 15th century and outlived the MASS majority, despite having a 'weak constitution' from birth. After four decades of eating this 12oz diet, a friend convinced him to eat 14oz one day and it almost killed him, just like taking a shot of heroin would surely kill me. There is no doubt in my mind that the original diet that man consumed when he first arrived on this planet was absolutely MINIMAL in terms of solids, if indeed it involved any solids at all. It makes sense to me that a human would not come into existence if everything he needed to survive was not already there in his IMMEDIATE environment (i.e.: pristine air).
YES!... no matter who you are, you are detoxing every single day. However, when you improve your diet, the detoxification intensifies and usually becomes much more uncomfortable. One of the first keys to success on your journey to becoming "cleaner" is to understand the reasons that you may be having difficulty with your new lifestyle. In my opinion there is no better way to transform and rid the body of these old, deep-rooted toxins than to eat a "cleaner" diet, while at the same time to cleanse the colon on a periodic basis: this combination helps dramatically to relieve the detox symptoms.

Toxins In, Toxins Out"
This article is a reprint from "The Raw Food Newsletter"
I get their newsletter to help stay up to date on how, why and what is available to keep a healthy balance in our diet. Thanks Matt Monarch for all the great info.

Toxins In, Toxins Out", Article by Matt Monarch
Detoxification is a natural process that the human body goes through, NO MATTER WHAT your current diet is. Generally, we cleanse the MOST in the middle of the night when we are asleep, because we are not eating food; we are in deep relaxation, conserving energy, and our bodies' circadian rhythms are set up to go into deep relaxation and cleansing during this time. People who are eating the Standard American Diet generally wake up in the morning feeling as GROGGY as can be, because of all of the detoxification they experienced during the night. Many people then drink coffee at this time to try to "COMBAT" that GROGGY feeling, yet they are simply intoxicating themselves even more and repeating the cycle...
Toxicity can take many different forms, including food, drink, pollution, cosmetics, adrenalin and other poisons from stress, household cleaners and so on. (Processed foods usually having the most detrimental overall impact, comparatively speaking, if they are part of a person's regular food intake). There are two basic directions that you can be heading in, in terms of toxicity in the body... Each and every day you can be on the path to becoming more toxic... OR... you can be on the path to becoming cleaner. If one day you are introduced to more than the average amount of toxicity you are generally exposed to daily, you are on that pathway of increasing your toxicity. If you are introduced to less than the average amount of toxicity that you are generally exposed to daily, then you are on that path to becoming cleaner.
No matter what your diet is like, your body will take the opportunity to cleanse whenever it possibly can. If a person is eating excessively on the Standard American Diet, it will be mainly in the evening/night-time that their body will detox as much of the junk that it possibly can. Unfortunately, since SO MUCH toxicity is being introduced into a person like this on a daily basis, their body actually becomes unable to cleanse out more toxicity than they eat in the space of each day. Therefore, with each passing day they are becoming more and more toxic. As the toxins accumulate within their cells and their body, you'll often notice their bellies getting bigger and bigger, especially as the years go by.
Now on the FLIP side, if you improve your diet by eating less, you are being introduced to LESS toxicity, compared to the daily average you are normally exposed to. Therefore, ESPECIALLY on a 100% Raw Food Diet, your body can quickly cleanse out what you ingest and also has time/space/energy to cleanse above and beyond your current intake, which enables older toxins to be cleansed out. If you continue eating less like this, over time your body will continue to gain ground and cleanse out more and more from your recent past. The longer you continue to eat a much better diet like this, you will detox deeper and deeper, dredging down into the toxins consumed further and further into your past. If you improve your diet in this way, the toxins that leave your body do not solely include those that come from food, but can also include toxins from air pollution, household cleaners, cosmetics and so on.

This is why many who have gone on a 100% Raw Food Diet report that they can't handle anymore the types of toxins generated from cars, trucks, cosmetics, household cleaners, and so on... The more toxins you eliminate from your body, the "cleaner" you become and the more sensitive you become to toxins. For example, snake hunters apparently introduce small amounts of snake venom into their bloodstream and slowly raise the quantity of venom over time, so that they can tolerate more and more, until they can handle an entire snakebite without harm. Now if a snake hunter who has built up to being able to handle a snake bite, STOPS taking venom into their bloodstream, they would detox it out, just like a raw foodist begins to detox all of their toxins out. If this snake hunter goes a year without taking any venom into their bloodstream and then gets bitten by a snake, there is a strong chance that the snake bite will kill him, whereas one year previously, it wouldn't have had a serious effect on him. When you go on a 100% Raw Food Diet, you OUTPOUR toxins and become more sensitive with every passing year, just like the snake hunter who stops intaking poisonous venom.
People often believe that when a person FIRST starts eating a 100% raw food diet they experience an initial detoxification period and then it all ends. I do not believe this to be the case. Detoxification is ONGOING, whether you are eating fast food burgers every single day or if you are eating one blended 6 oz raw food meal that contains all the nutrients required by the body. I've been on a 100% Raw Food Diet for 13 years now, and every single morning I can sense that I cleansed throughout the night...and it is not just the meals from the day before that are being cleared out.
There are probably HUNDREDS of 100% Raw Foodists reading this article who have been on a 100% Raw Food Diet anywhere from 1 to 60 years. I would GUARANTEE that every single one of them will agree that when they wake up, they can sense that their body was detoxing throughout the night. Detoxification is a natural process that the body continually cycles through. It took many decades and even a few ancestral generations to accumulate the amount of toxicity within the body that many people currently experience, and the detoxification process will hence continue for the rest of our lives - there is a lot of cleaning up to do. In fact, the longer you've been on a 100% Raw Food Diet, the deeper, older, and more concentrated the toxins exiting the body can become.
Besides eliminating toxins that we intake on a daily basis through food, there are other procedures that a person can do to also remove toxins from the body, such as exercise, cleansing the colon, taking enzymes on an empty stomach, saunas, detox foot soaks and much more. Any of these procedures can help lower your daily toxicity level and result in detoxification IF you don't increase your food intake at the same time. For example, if you consistently bring in the same amount of toxins each day, but you simply add in daily exercise to your routines, you will start eliminating more toxins daily than you were before. If you don't begin to eat more, while adding in consistent exercise, this can create space to allow deeper detoxification.
I feel that cleansing the colon is the most effective procedure that ANYONE can do to aid the removal of toxins from the body. When periodic colon hydrotherapy is undertaken, in conjunction with an improvement in diet void of processed foods, this is the most effective combination for detox. When you cleanse the colon on a periodic basis, it expedites the process of removal of toxins by over 100%. For example, if you ate 100% raw for a year and didn't cleanse the colon, there is a big chance that you could still detox out all residues of your meals from the previous year. However, if you also cleansed your colon every two weeks during this year of eating raw, you could potentially detox out all toxic residues from the previous 2 - 3 years or so.
Cleansing the colon is so effective, that my periodic use of it, is the MAIN reason I have been able to stick with the 100% Raw Food Diet for over 13 years now. It is like "cheating the process", as it just PULLS toxins/waste out like nothing else. I've written a handful of MUST-READ articles on Colon Hydrotherapy at this link HERE, which will most likely calm any fears or doubts about this process. The reason that I am so certain that the colon hydrotherapy procedure is so effective is because of my own experience, coupled with as what I have seen with others. All of the successful health food institutes that help people heal from degenerative diseases intensively utilize colon hydrotherapy, due to how effective it is. Colon hydrotherapy is one of the main reasons that these health food institutes have such a high success rate in helping people heal from various degenerative diseases.
I am so confident in the colon hydrotherapy procedure that when a person tries to argue with me about this topic, I tell them to go on a 35 day juice fast and do a professional colonic every other day during this period, and if they STILL don't think colon hydrotherapy is beneficial after that, then I will pay them $1000. I generally don't ever hear from these people again...
The intention with this article was to hopefully give you a deeper understanding of how detoxification works in terms of "toxins in and toxins out". The process of detoxification and 'toxification' flows in and out, just like breathing, and will continue our whole lives...
