In today’s environment, we are overloaded by toxic exposure. To combat this, we have a detox system in our body. Vitamins and minerals and nutrients are required so that detoxification occurs in the cells, as in our liver. It also occurs in our gut, which is probably the most important of all the detoxification.

Not only are they integral for detox, but vitamins and minerals build proteins and bones, are components of enzymes, produce energy and make collagen, just to name a few benefits.  They strengthen the immune system and are critical for achieving optimal health.

When toxins back up, they cause a toxic load in our system and make our cells sick. When our cells get sick, we get sick. It manifests itself in numerous different ways: heart disease, cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, degenerative arthritis, Alzheimer’s disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, brain fog, insomnia, depression, you name it.

The air we breathe, food we eat and chemicals we slather on our bodies all play a role in our toxic exposure.  One of the biggest contributors to toxic load comes from plastics.  Plastic chemicals come from the clothes that we put on, trichloroethylene when we get our clothes done at the cleaners, we drink out of plastic bottles, and we cook in plastic. There are plasticisers in the carpet and that are put into our clothes to keep them from wrinkling.

Absolutely.  These petrochemical products are “hormone disruptors.”  Hormones, such as thyroid, sex and adrenal hormones, are those chemical messengers sent by specific glands in our bodies that instruct our cells what to do and how to do it.  The chemicals in the environment disrupt the production of hormones and their utilization in the cells. These toxins also damage the cells, affecting their ability to produce energy.

While it’s impossible to avoid toxins altogether, there are some things you can do to minimize your exposure.  For starters, clean up your eating program.  Eat whole, natural foods as best you can, particularly a lot of greens and fruits.  If you can, buy them organic.  We  recommend minimizing your meat products, particularly red meat, because all the petrochemicals and toxins get stored in the fat.

In addition to eating well, it is important that you stick to your vitamin and mineral regimen, as these will help to continually aid in the detoxification process.

Also, be sure that you have excellent air filters in your home, along with good water filters.  If you are drinking regular tap water, you’re getting fluoride, chlorine and a host of other bacteria and other chemicals that are in the water.

This is a common misconception, but we have found that, no matter how healthy your diet may be, vitamin and mineral supplementation is still necessary to achieve optimal health.  This is partly due to the processed foods we eat and partly because of the increased toxic load over the last several decades; we need additional nutrients to keep up.  Compound that with the fact that there has been a loss of nutrients due to over-tilling of the soil, and you will find that it is nearly impossible to achieve optimal nutrition without vitamin supplementation.

I’ve been a guest at this facility for 15 years. They are the most efficient, thorough and caring group of individuals I’ve ever experienced. Dr Hotze looks to change the way a typical doctor treats patients and looks for root causes to eliminate medical issues instead of treating “symptoms”. My life has improved 100% since my initial visit. The cost of the treatments are worth it.

I cannot accurately describe in words how I feel about this practice and the entire staff. I have had quite a few health issues throughout the years, rheumatoid arthritis, sjogrens, weight gain, hair loss, irritability, and that is just the beginning. I had pretty much given up on feeling good, just decided to "live with it" and hope for the best. Two very close friends love the Hotze Wellness Clinic and they have experienced life changing health. Made my appointment and from the beginning I felt heard. Not a in and out fast food style practice. They are looked and are looking at my entire body for overall health and wellness. Connections from mind and body to clinical blood work, even dental questions....they care and I feel as if I can trust them. I am on a path to complete wellness and my goal is to have my RA back in remission as it once was....make yourself a priority. Having hope is an incredible feeling!
