ARE YOU TOXIC?

When a warning light comes on in our car or it fails a safety inspection, we investigate and perform the needed maintenance. Why do we care more for our cars than our bodies?

Here are ten toxic symptoms that you should not ignore. Is your body asking for toxic relief and a personal tune-up?

2. You have less energy than you would like.
3. You are irritable, depressed or unable to sleep.
4. You are fatigued, achy or arthritic.
