"Heavy Metals" . . . are they an "issue"?

So what exactly are "heavy metals" . . . and how can they affect us???

Well . . . this all goes hand in hand with everything we've been talking about.

You see . . . the term "heavy metal" . . . refers to any "metallic chemical" that has "high" density . . . and is "toxic" . . . in "low" concentration.

The same with "mold" . . . "high" density . . . that can be "toxic" . . . in "low" concentration.

Okay . . . so with that being said . . .

What are the 5 top "heavy metals" we need to be aware of???

Well . . . they would be . . .

Mercury

Lead

Chromium

Arsenic

And "CADMIUM" being the most dangerous

And what are the symptoms of these elements in the body???

Well . . . we would look for . . .

Fatigue

Headaches

Brain fog

Tingling and burning sensations

Achy joints and muscles

High blood pressure

Damage to the reproductive organs

Gastrointestinal issues

Depression

Anxiety

Confusion

Constipation

And with this . . . the body starts its "inflammation" process" to help eliminate the above . . . leaving us in a world of "hurt"!

So where does the body "store" these "heavy metals"???

Well . . . unfortunately . . . in our bones, liver, kidneys and BRAIN

And this is due to their "small molecule size".

So next question . . . how do "heavy metals" affect the "brain"???

Well . . . they can cause irritability, tremors, changes in vision or hearing and "memory" problems.

All leading to . . . neurological and behavioral issues.

Okay . . . so let's talk about some of the foods that are listed as having the "highest" concentration of "heavy metals" in them . . .

And they would be . . .

Fish . . . which can contain high levels of "mercury"

Brown rice . . . contains up to 80% more of "arsenic" than white rice

Dark chocolate . . . contains 7.6 micrograms of "CADMIUM" . . . remember this toxin is the most dangerous to the human body.

And Coffee . . . contains both "CADMIUM" AND "lead"

So we need to think twice about these vices people!

And what about "environmentally"???

Well . . . "heavy metals" can be found in places like . . .

Carpets and area rugs

Furniture

Mattresses

Aluminum pots and pans

Ceramic mugs, plates and bowls

Drinking water

And in our beauty and self-care products

Now . . . we "can" be tested by having a simple blood test known as a "heavy metal panel" or "heavy metal toxicity text".

And if "positive" . . . through proper "diet" . . . the body has "natural ways" of eliminating and/or reducing the toxic effects.

And the "elimination" process we spoke about yesterday would fit that bill.

This process for eliminating "heavy metals" takes about 45 days if you're "COMPLIANT".

Okay . . . so what vegetable have the ability to "remove" heavy metals from the body???

Well . . . they would be . . .

Broccoli

Cucumbers

Kale

Spinach

Celery

Sprouts

Arugula

And some herbs and spices would be . . .

Cilantro

Dandelion

Milk Thistle

Red clover

And turmeric

But . . . as always, please consult with your own healthcare provider before using any new health method.

Now next week . . . I'll tell you about "my" detailed protocol for eliminating the "toxins" from "my" body.

So stay safe and have a "mindful" weekend.
