Heavy Metal Cleansing Detox


Heavy Metal Detox

Heavy metal exposure is a growing threat in our toxic modern society.

Harmful toxins such as lead, mercury, cadmium and arsenic often go undetected as they silently build up inside the body over months and years, leading to chronic inflammation, brain fog, hormonal dysfunction and increased risk for serious illnesses down the road.

You can take charge of your wellness through routine gentle cleansing protocols using powerful botanicals that have been tried and tested over the ages.


Many of us likely have higher heavy metal load than we realize due to daily environmental pollutants that inevitably get inside the body by:

Polluted Air & Water: Toxic metals get absorbed through the lungs from breathing contaminated air. Drinking unfiltered tap water also allows consumption and accumulation over time. Common culprits here include mercury, lead, cadmium and arsenic finding their way into soil, atmosphere and water supplies from industrial waste runoff.

Fish Consumption: Seafood picks up trace amounts of heavy metals like mercury in the ecology from things like coal plant emissions. Over years this bioaccumulates up the marine food chain to the fish harvested for human consumption.

Dental Fillings & Implants: The metallic mixture in amalgam dental fillings or metal fixtures leach low levels of toxins like mercury and nickel into your system over time.

Paint & Pipes: Old chipping paint and home piping systems contain lead, a dangerous developmental neurotoxin. These metal dust particles and water trace amounts take a major toll, especially on children's growing brains and bodies.

Some Cosmetics & Antiperspirants: Toxic preservatives like aluminum in deodorant, shampoo, skin creams and makeup is thought to increase risk for contamination through use and absorption into your tissues over time.

These common environmental exposures demonstrate how heavy metals silently enter our systems putting our long term health at risk from build up in organs, glands, nervous system and brain without us realizing it on a daily basis.

Here are some signs indicating you may need a heavy metal detox:-

Fatigue, brain fog, poor focus - Heavy metal toxins interfere with cellular processes and neurotransmitters leading to feelings of haziness, mood changes, and lackluster energy.

Digestive discomfort - Bowel issues like constipation, cramping, acid reflux can indicate the GI tract is struggling to keep up with eliminating toxins.

Skin issues - Rashes, eczema, acne, and dullness arise when waste and metals try to escape through the skin. Our skin is our third kidney!

Autoimmune disease diagnosis - The inflammation and immune system confusion instigated by poisons underlie development of Hashimoto’s disease, IBS, Lupus, etc.

Neurological symptoms - Numbness, tingling, weakness and balance issues happen as metals impact nerve cell communication and development.

Hormonal imbalances - Reproductive issues, thyroid dysfunction, adrenal fatigue from accumulated toxins throwing key chemical messengers like estrogen and cortisol off balance long term.
