If you’re only thinking about doing a total body cleanse , I suggest you watch this video. It was shown on TV and explains what can be found in the human body.
As you can see, it’s not just me who recognizes the dangerous toxins we’re accumulating through modern living, and the requirement for doing a total body cleanse.

If you want to shrink your fibroids naturally, or stop fibroids from growing, you need to cut out all the substances that cause fibroids to grow in the first place. Xenoestrogens cause fibroids to grow out of control, and you can find these harmful substances in contaminated water and food.
You’ll also find xenoestrogens in cosmetics, such as moisturisers, sunscreen lotions, make up, body creams, perfumes, deodorants, shampoos, toothpaste… just about anything. The things to look out for are parabens.
These are chemicals used by in the cosmetic industry to preserve products, so they will have a longer shelf life. When you’ve finished reading this, just look at all the labels of your cosmetics and look out for the following words:
All of these are parabens.
Next, look at any medication you might be taking, or over the counter drugs to see if any of these chemicals are in the tables you might be taking.
Household products, such as insecticides, paints, oils, weed killers, dyes, glues and adhesives will contain a high number of xenoestrogen chemicals. If your fibroids have suddenly become worse, you need to think about what you’ve been exposed to that have caused them to grow.

There are specific foods that cause fibroids to grow, and if you would like to shrink your fibroids naturally, you will need to avoid eating these. In a previous articles, I explained the link between fibroids and estrogen, and xenoestrogens and fibroids. I’m going to continue this theme by telling you which types of foods will make fibroids worse.
Meat, Fish & Dairy Products
Eating animals that are high in the food chain can increase your exposure to xenoestrogens. For example, eating large fish that survive by eating smaller fish. This is because microscopic creatures eat algae already been contaminated with the chemicals, so they accumulate the chemicals in their bodies. Because these chemicals are artificially created, animals are not able to break them down and neutralize them, so instead accumulate them in their bodies.
These microscopic creatures are eaten by the smallest of fish, which then accumulate even more of the chemicals, and they’re eaten by larger fish, which accumulate even more of the chemicals. Xenoestrogens accumulate in fatty tissue, which means that each animal in the food chain substantially increases its xenoestrogen levels by eating smaller animals. Since we’re at the top of the food chain, we are most likely to be affected.
This is one of the reasons why women who eat less animal products are less likely to have fibroids, and if they do have fibroids, they’re less likely to suffer from the symptoms of fibroids.
I talked a lot about fish, but red meat and dairy products, especially when they come from non-organic sources, can make fibroids grow, and aggravate the symptoms of fibroids. This is because commercial farmers add synthetic hormones, antibiotics and drugs to the feed given to livestock, so they can grow fast, gain weight and be sold for a high price.
The chemicals fed and injected into livestock are transferred to you whenever you eat meat from non-organic sources, or consume dairy products that come from non-organic sources, or consume dairy products that come from non-organic milk.
Many of these chemicals are xenoestrogens and others are growth hormones. You’d never take a supplement containing artificial estrogens and growth hormones, but whenever you eat commercial meat and dairy, you’re consuming these substances indirectly.
Fruits & Vegetables
Non-organic vegetables and fruit, especially those imported from overseas, where regulations are not as strict, are a common source of xenoestrogens. Commercial produce, is typically sprayed several times in its lifecycle with chemical herbicides and pesticides in order to protect the crops from disease and being eaten by insects.
The most dangerous of these chemicals are no longer used in the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, but they’re still used in other countries around the world. At the moment, it is possible for supermarkets to import overseas produce sprayed with dangerous chemicals, or for food manufacturers to use these fruits and vegetables as ingredients for their packaged foods.
Packaged foods, especially those that are not organic are likely to contain xenoestrogens, this is due to the food preservatives, artificial colourings, flavorings and other additives put in the foods. They’re also stored for several weeks in plastic containers, and since many packaged foods have a high fat content, you’re likely to consume estrogenic chemicals that have melted into the fats.
Food Storage & Preparation
Plastics are a major source of xenoestrogens, particularly when you store your food and water in plastic. The worst type is the soft platic wraps like clingfilm or saran wrap, which is more likely to leak xenoestrogens into your foods. Xenoestrogens, as with most chemicals, are fat-soluble, so wrapping fatty foods in plastic will almost guarantee that these chemicals will get into your food.
Similarly, heating your food in plastics, especially in the microwave, and keeping plastic boottles of water in the sun or near heat, can dissolve xenoestrogens into your food and water.
But that’s not all! In the next article, I’m going to tell you which products in your home are causing your fibroids to grow out of control.

Researchers have linked uterine fibroids with xenoestrogens, which are estrogen mimickers – artificial chemicals that can fit into estrogen receptors, and can cause
Contaminated water is a prime source of xenoestrogens, as lakes and rivers near chemical processing plants where waste products are dumped, have been noted to have an extraordinary effect on the wildlife that live in the water.
Researchers at the Tulane University School of Medicine in New Orleans have linked estrogenic toxins in the environment to uterine diseases such as fibroids and endometriosis.
They found that male fish, turtles and frogs in detergent-contaminated water started to develop female characteristics, such as ovaries, and decided to see whether the contaminated water affected mammals.
The researchers found that polar bears exposed to the contaminated water gave birth to hermaphrodite offspring (this means they are neither male nor female), and female seals developed an excess number of uterine fibroids.
When they started to research the effect of these chemicals on human females, the results were the same. Women exposed to estrogenic toxins tended to develop more fibroids and endometriosis than women who were not exposed to the substances.
If you’re drinking this water, even if it’s been refined, or you eat plants or animals that have been farmed with this waster, then you are more likely to be affected by xenoestrogens.
Contaminated water is just one source of xenoestrogens. Your fibroids can grow from:

Xenoestrogens are environmental estrogens, artificially created as a by-product to the chemical industry. In the past 10 years, there have been a lot of studies that have linked xenoestrogens to conditions such as fibroids, endometriosis, infertility, lowered sperm counts and cancer.
They are found in pesticides, PCBs, plastics, the lacquer that lines the inside of cans used for storing food, and many common foods and household products.
Xenoestrogens are recognised by estrogen receptors, but have a stronger effect on the cells than other types of estrogen. Some of the most deadly xenoestrogens are PCBs.
PCBs were used in industry decades ago, but were banned in the 1970’s. Although these substances are no longer in use, they have accumulated in water, soil and in the fat of animals and humans. Scientists have even found the substances secreted in human breast milk!
Because they’re a mix of synthetic chemicals, they’re not very biodegradable, this means it’s difficult for the environment, and human body to break them down.
It can take hundreds of years for these substances to be broken down in the environment, and in our bodies as they are unnatural substances that nature does not have processes or tools to deal with.
