Everything You Need to Know to Start Safely Detoxing Heavy Metals from Your Body
What Are Heavy Metals?
Heavy metals are naturally occurring elements, but in excess, they can be toxic to your body.
Common sources include:
- Mercury (from fish, dental fillings, and vaccines)
- Lead (old pipes, paint, cosmetics)
- Aluminum (deodorant, cookware, food additives)
- Arsenic (water, rice)
- Cadmium (cigarettes, batteries)
These metals accumulate in your organs, bones, brain, and fat tissue — often silently
affecting your health for years.
Symptoms of Heavy Metal Toxicity
Do any of these sound familiar?
- Brain fog or memory issues
- Chronic fatigue
- Joint or muscle pain
- Mood swings, anxiety, or depression
- Skin problems (eczema, rashes)
- Hormonal imbalance
- Gut issues like constipation or candida overgrowth
You don’t have to have all of them. Even one or two could be a sign of toxic buildup.
How to Test for Heavy Metals
Conventional testing isn’t always enough. Here are better options:
- Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA): Shows long-term exposure.
- AO Biofeedback Scan: Detects energetic signatures of metals in the body.
- Muscle Testing (Kinesiology): Assesses your bodys response to various substances.
- Symptom correlation: Paired with professional guidance, can offer valuable clues.
I offer holistic consultations to help guide this process and create custom detox protocols.
