It’s no secret that more and more people are starting to realize the benefits of a healthy and toxin free body. Even though there are more unhealthy people on the planet today than there were 50 years ago, one could argue that it’s because of technology and convenience.

Luckily, due to the rapid increase in various important health movements, people have realized that not only technology is to blame but it also has a great deal to do with our diets in the 21^st century.
