Foot zoning supports all systems of the body and helps the original thriving blueprint of the body to come back to its normal line of health. However, it’s also important to live a healthy lifestyle, and eat properly. Every system of the body is designed to be supported by the intake of healthy foods. The body is meant to break down and utilize natural foods. When the body receives an unnatural diet, it is very harsh on all the organs and systems because man-made products are not designed to be broken down and absorbed by the body. Therefore, the body exhausts itself trying to break down unnatural molecular structures, and to rid them of the body. Eventually the body starts losing ground with such substances and becomes backed up and depleted of the nutrients it does need.
Simple sugar is one of those ingredients that is pure poison to the human body. In fact, Dr. Oz teaches that if sugar is one of the first 5 ingredients of a product, you should avoid it. Even more so, to avoid high fructose corn syrup at all costs because it blocks the chemical ability of leptin to tell your brain you are full. If you find it difficult to go off sugar, the following facts are great reasons to do so according to Dr. Nancy Appleton, a Ph.
