Toxemia

Some notes from Dr. Stansbury Botanical Medicine II lecture:

TOXEMIA:
Condition produced by accumulation of putrefactive and otherwise toxic 
waste products.
“The basic cause of all so-called diseases… When the body is enervated, elimination 
is checked. This, in turn, results in a retention of toxins in the blood. This state 
produces a crisis which is nothing more than heroic or extraordinary efforts by the 
body to eliminate waste or toxin from the blood. It is this crisis which we term 
disease. ”   Tilden JH. Impaired Health: Its Cause and Cure, 1921

Symptoms of toxemia:
Coated Tongue and Foul Breath
Fatigue and Vague Malaise                            
Flatulence & digestive symptoms
Liver dysfunction
Acne and Skin Blemishes
Chronic infections
PMS and Hormonal Imbalances
