The Ayurveda Khichadi Cleanse

“Toxins” is a greater concern in this century then ever before. Our environment has much to do with this problem. Toxins from automobile emission, industrial wastes, chemical fertilizers, pesticides, insecticides, are present everywhere in our environment. House cleaning chemicals, chemicals in our food, medicines we use, chemicals used to purify water make the problems worse. The body also produces many toxins which need to be eliminated. If not, they can cause blockages in the pathways. Our thoughts and emotions also can cause subtle toxic wastes.

All these toxins start building up over time, little by little like snow flakes. Eventually it becomes a big snow ball - a major health concern. Many of the current chronic diseases - allergies, arthritis, digestive problems, heart problems, and cancers are linked to chemical toxins.

The solution to the problem – Detoxify and cleanse the system periodically. When the healing energy flows throughout the body without interruption, it prevents many diseases. Thus, cleansing strengthens the immune system, improves digestion, thinking gets clearer, the mind feels calmer and over all the person feels energetic.
