SALON WORKERS:     Detoxify Your Body with Young Living Essential Oils.  Part 1

ESSENTIAL OILS CAN HELP LOWER YOUR PROFESSIONAL RISKS

Poor Ventilation
It’s important that the salon has a good ventilation system. When chemicals mix with the heat from the hair dryers, it can create fumes that irritate allergies, asthma and can cause headaches.

UVA Exposure
The gel manicure has risen in popularity, it can do more harm to your health that it can do good for your appearance. Early studies show that the UVA lights used during the manicure can potentially increase your risk of developing skin cancer.

Chemical Exposure
Hairdressers use gels, texturizers, straighteners, relaxers, shampoos, conditioners, dyes and other substances that contain hazardous chemicals. These chemicals enter the body when hairdressers inhale or fail to wash their hands before eating or applying lip cosmetics. Chemical exposure can also occur if a hairdresser does not wear gloves when handling hazardous substances. The consequences of exposure depend on the type of chemical used and how the exposure occurred. Dye that splashes on unprotected hands may cause skin irritation. The same dye could cause permanent blindness if splashed in the eyes.
Straightening solution contains formaldehyde or chemicals that can break down into formaldehyde. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has issued an alert for those who work with this product and are exposed to the chemicals in it. OSHA has also cracked down on some manufacturers of the product that failed to label formaldehyde as an ingredient.

How does your body detoxify?
Detoxification is basically cleansing the blood. It works because it addressees the needs of the individual cells. (Bennett)

1.       The liver prepares these toxins so the body can expel them through urine or your bile. If your liver is overloaded, it slows down its function and thus contributes to toxins accumulated in your blood.
It processes anything you eat or drink, and either repackages it for your body to use or eliminates it. The liver also stores vitamins.
Regulating body functions as the liver does, it can affect both your emotional and mental health. While it almost sounds cliché to mention, today’s lifestyle of poor diet and stress can injure your liver.
Without a healthy liver, it’s nearly impossible to have a properly functioning metabolism, healthy circulation, balanced hormones, strong digestion, a loss of memory and sleep and can cause a weight gain.
Young Living offers series of products that were developed with your liver in mind with blends that has both hepatoprotective and antioxidant protection and fortify the liver.
Lemon Oil-  One drop of lemon of Young Living essential oil is equivalent to consuming 20-30 fresh organic lemons in one sitting.
It alkalizes the body and purifies the lymphatic system. You want your body to be slightly alkalotic to prevent illness. It increases the circulation and purges the lymphatic system. It offers tremendous immune system protection by supporting the WBCs which fight against infections. It also supports the respiratory system.
D-Limonene is a compound known as 'lemon extract' and is found in high levels in lemon juices.
It supports the immune system and fights against abnormal cell division. It promotes liver health and helps alleviate fat buildup in the liver induced by diet.
 
2.       The Intestines are where digested food passes through and where nutrients are absorbed. They also balance the good and bad bacteria, helping the body to digest better and produce natural antibiotics to break down toxins.
A healthy digestive system is the starting point for health and wellness because that is where food is absorbed and where helpful bacteria live. Essential oils can be a great support for gastrointestinal comfort and normal digestion support.
A.      Peppermint Vitality essential oil has a bright, cool flavor, with benefits that include gastrointestinal comfort and normal digestion support, in addition to its great taste.
It’s very supportive of the immune system.
It also invigorates the mind and gives a boost of positivity.
B.      Digize Essential Oil is a blend of 8 oils. It helps balance function for elimination.
C.      Many other Young Living essential oils support the digestive system as well.
 
3.       The Kidneys are essential part of the urinary system. They serve the body as a natural filter of the blood, and remove waste which is diverted to the urinary bladder. In producing urine, the kidneys excrete waste such as urea and ammonium. A detox plan will help with these processes and relieves the pressure on your kidneys.
NingXia Red is a functional drink that supports every organ, tissue, and cell in your body. NingXia Red wolfberry juice incorporates the benefits of Goji berry, yuzu juice, aronia berry and therapeutic essential oils into a powerful antioxidant and nutritionally balanced drink.
NingXia Red benefits include support for energy levels, normal cellular function, and whole-body and normal eye health.
 
4.       The lungs are the essential respiration organs in our body. Their principal function is to transport oxygen from the atmosphere into the bloodstream, and to release carbon dioxide from the bloodstream into the atmosphere.
We may breathe toxins in the air through our lungs, but the lungs are also able to expel toxins. We can breathe deeply and fully exhale to maximize the cleansing effect.
Hyssop essential oil is an effective purifier and helps to remove excess thick fluid accumulations.
Peppermint oil helps to clean the respiratory system and sinuses. Because it is high in phenols, the receptor sites in the cells are able to be cleaned. (Think of door flaps that allow things in.)
 
5.       The lymphatic system is the fluid that circulates throughout the system and is part of our immune system. The lymph contains white blood cells that pick-up bacteria or other toxins from the body’s cells and bring them to lymph nodes where they are destroyed.
The lymph moves around the body by breathing and muscle contraction, so breathing and mild exercise help it to work better.
Lemon and Lime oils are cleanse and purge the lymphatic system.
JuvaFlex and Helichyrsm also aid in the detoxification process in the lymph.
Lemongrass opens the lymphatic system for toxin removal.
Cyress promotes circulation.
