Dr. Paula Baillie-Hamilton Our body is a machine made up of trillions of cells. Just like a car engine, each cell is a miniature cylinder producing energy and expelling waste. The better we expel waste, the better our body can perform.
Dr. Paula Baillie-Hamilton in her book “Stop the 21st Century Killing You” (published by Random House) talks about how to get stronger muscles with more staying power: “Energy (in our muscles) is produced by tiny cylindrical structures called mitochondria. They are responsible for converting the food we eat into a molecular form of energy that the whole body can easily use – known as ATP (adenosine triphosphate).” “The number of mitochondria in our muscles and their efficiency ultimately determine muscle strength and endurance.
Unfortunately, the mitochondria appear to be exquisitely sensitive to a wide range of chemical toxins, which reduce their numbers and dramatically impair their effectiveness. Worse still, chemical damage can reduce the body’s ability to produce the exact foods needed to fuel the mitochondria. So, not only can chemicals reduce muscle strength, but they can also lower muscle endurance by limiting production of the food supply. This translates to weaker muscles that get exhausted more readily.
Fortunately, mitochondria are very resilient structures. So, a good detoxification and nutritional program can potentially restore your body to its full complement of mitochondria, as well as upping muscle strength for sprinters and endurance for long-distance runners alike.”
When it comes to supplementation, most sportspeople are well aware of various nutrients that can help them in achieving their goals, but very few are aware of, or are pro-active in removing the effect toxins have on their performance. This is where Perfect Balance Body De-tox can help. Dr. Baillie-Hamilton, an expert in the impact of toxic chemicals on health, also has made the following quote after experiencing our Perfect Balance Body De-Tox program: “I was very impressed by the effectiveness of your de-tox process." She also goes on to say that: “No serious athlete can afford to ignore the fact that chemical toxins may be damaging their overall competitiveness. Even if they are not exposed to chemicals on a daily basis in their workplace, the toxins athletes are getting in their food and from the environment could make all the difference between winning and losing.”
