This is not meant to be a comprehensive list of causes but from my experience and understanding what may be a the root of many of our chronic diseases. Do you see yourself in any of these lists? Some may have simple solutions, others more complex that may be helped by the coordination and cellular communication benefits of Asea.

#3 Overburdened Sluggish Liver

 

The liver plays a crucial role in detoxifying various chemicals and toxins that enter our bodies. In modern times, exposure to multiple chemicals has increased significantly, potentially leading to an overburdened or sluggish liver. This condition can have serious implications for overall health.

"Since liver health is public health, it is important to consider how our surroundings affect our livers."3

  7. Nausea and vomiting

  8. Abdominal pain, particularly in the upper right portion

These symptoms can indicate that the liver is struggling to process toxins efficiently, potentially due to exposure to various chemicals, medications, or environmental factors. 

 

#4 Oxidative Stress

 

Oxidative stress is an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants in the body, leading to cell and tissue damage.

"Oxidative stress is a phenomenon caused by an imbalance between production and accumulation of oxygen reactive species (ROS) in cells and tissues and the ability of a biological system to detoxify these reactive products. ROS can play, and in fact they do it, several physiological roles (i.e., cell signaling), and they are normally generated as by-products of oxygen metabolism; despite this, environmental stressors (i.e., UV, ionizing radiations, pollutants, and heavy metals) and xenobiotics (i.e., antiblastic drugs) contribute to greatly increase ROS production, therefore causing the imbalance that leads to cell and tissue damage (oxidative stress)"1.
