Does anyone know what the relevance is between dark shadows (bags) under the eyes and general health. Is it symptomatic that something is not right? I have had bags for as long as I can remember and for a long time I was certain that it was due to my lifestyle. Now I’m not so sure. I spoke to my mother who is an Alexander teacher regarding this and then it dawned on me that ever since I was a kid I had the shadow under the eyes. What's going on? Am I to believe that my liver is just very sensitive?? As a child I was properly fed denied cola etc.. Is it a genetic thing? Do some people simply suffer from shadows? If it’s build up of toxins, how do I go about finding out what I should not be consuming or should be consuming.
