Understanding Your Body

The Body Heals Itself When Given The Tools

Understanding how your body's systems work together is the first step toward achieving optimal health and wellness.

Effects of Pathogen Attack on the Human Body

When a pathogen/organism enters the body and the immune system is compromised, replication takes place. They invade, grow and spread locally into tissues and cells. When kept untreated they can invade the blood vessels and cause infection in the bloodstream which can lead to cytokine storm, microthrombosis and organ failure.

This is why maintaining a strong immune system and supporting your body's natural defenses is crucial for long-term health.

Central Control

The Autonomic Nervous System

The autonomic nervous system regulates blood pressure and breathing rates. The system works without a person's conscious effort.

Autonomic nervous system disorders can affect any part of the body. The disorders can be progressive and reversible. The autonomic nervous system controls the internal organs through sympathetic or parasympathetic division nerve fibers, to the brain, pupils, heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, bladder, stomach, intestine, digestive glands, salivary, sweat, digestive glands and genitals.

Regulates These Functions

Circulation
Breathing
Digestion
Body temperature
Metabolism
Water balance and electrolytes
Excretion
Urination
Hormone production
Sexual response

Holistic Approach

The Need to Treat the Body as a Whole

There are about 16 systems of the body and each system plays a vital role and is connected. Everything in the body is interconnected, which means everything on the outside is a direct reflection of what's going on inside.

"Our body has a self-regulating system and cannot be treated in isolation. What affects one organ also affects the other. As in nature, so it is in the body. What affects one system affects the whole body."

Jobe Health's detox program is designed to detoxify the body as a whole.

Your Body's Systems

Systems and Functions of the Body

Digestive System

Processes food into nutrients and energy for the body to use and gets rid of waste.

Renal & Excretory System

Filters and removes waste & extra fluid through the kidneys. Controls blood pressure, makes red blood cells, keeps bone health.

Lymphatic System

Removes fluid, helps fight against pathogens, working with thymus, lymph nodes, spleen, and lymphatic vessels.

Endocrine System

Secretes hormones, regulates body processes through pineal glands, hypothalamus, pituitary glands, thyroid, pancreas, adrenal glands.

Immune System

Makes antibodies to fight harmful substances; germs that enter the body through the skin and digestive system.

Respiratory System

Removes carbon dioxide from the body, delivers oxygen to blood, lungs and other organs.

Nervous System

Processes sensory information to and from the brain, activates body response to the brain, spinal cord and periphery nerves.

Circulatory System

Controls the cardiovascular system; together supplying body/organs with oxygen and nutrients.

Nutrition

High Fibre Prebiotic Food for Your Microbiome

Dietary fibre, known as roughage, is the part of plant food your body can't digest or absorb. It passes through your body unlike fat, proteins and carbohydrates which your body breaks down and absorbs.

This process cannot be carried out without digestive juices such as hydrochloric acid and bile from the liver. Soluble fibre can be found in oat, peas, apples, citrus fruits, carrots, barley and psyllium. Insoluble fibre keeps things moving through the digestive system and can be found in whole wheat flour, wheat bran, nuts, beans, and vegetables.

Benefits of Fibre

Softens and increases the size and weight of stools
