Podcast 410: Cleansing vs Detoxification

Hi, this is Martin Pytela for Life Enthusiast Podcast! Today, I would like to talk about the concepts of cleansing and detoxification. Oftentimes these two words get mixed up, but to me, they actually mean two different things. Cleansing to me is a process of naturally removing the metabolic waste, or whatever the body produces, in its natural functioning. Detoxification on the other hand would be removing the things that get into the body that shouldn’t be there, such as industrial toxins, heavy metals, whatever we ingest, inhale, or pick up. I have prepared a presentation, so I am going to launch into that. Watch now!

So, cleansing versus detoxification. I see cleansing as removing the debris that our cells have left behind through the process of natural functioning. Detoxification, again, is the removal of garbage, toxic things that we pick up every day living in the industrial society, things we inhale, absorb through our skin, drink, or ingest. My name is Martin Pytela, I am a health coach, I operate using the metabolic typing methods, which is part of the functional medicine spectrum, where we understand how genetics and foods we eat interact with the body. I founded Life Enthusiast, a platform that is focusing on helping people deal with chronic inflammatory degenerative conditions, and also Remarkable Recovery.

So let’s start with the actual topic. How did we get here? We now have sick soils, and sick plants, therefore we have sick people. What do I mean by that? Well, sick soils – that is an industrial problem. We have been using fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides that are making the soils more sterile, killing the microbial terrain, trying to overpower nature, instead of working with it. But unfortunately, these weakened soils are producing weakened plants that are producing sub-par, weak nutrition, which means sick people. This industrial method that we have adopted is focusing, I think, on the wrong aspects. The food quality is sacrificed for speed and volume, stability on the shelves, the ability to survive transport and look good on a grocery store shelf. But we are eating foods that are devoid of nutrients. They look good, but they’re actually empty. I am calling it ‘hollow foods.’

All of this is traveling on the back end of the plunder mindset. You come to a situation, and you treat the resource as something that you don’t have to pay for, something that you can exploit, something you can move on from without ever worrying how much damage you did. The classic plunder, of course, would be a troop of soldiers arriving in a village, burning the homes,
