Why Should You Regularly Detoxify?
It is almost impossible to avoid the accumulation of various heavy metals in your body. Even when, like me, you eat organic and detox regularly, we cannot control what is sprayed above and around us. Environmental and industrial factors expose you to high levels of heavy metals every day, including the foods you eat and air you breathe.
While toxins of every kind are harmful, heavy metals pose a unique threat. Not only are they damaging in their own right, they are also a form of neurotoxin that disrupts nerve function and confuses your immune system.
What are the symptoms of heavy metals poisoning?
Heavy metal neurotoxins can inflame and irritate our central nervous system (especially our brain), causing multiple symptoms such as memory loss, brain fog, fatigue, and depression. Toxic heavy metals can also promote inflammation in the digestive tract, releasing poisons into our gut. They also serve as a source of food for viruses, bacteria, parasites, and other pathogens in our body.
Long-term exposure to heavy metals can be toxic, causing harmful side effects that range from headaches, skin irritation, abdominal pain and cramping, to cognitive change and organ damage.
Prevention is a good approach. Don’t wait to have too many symptoms to do a heavy metals detox.
I believe that regular detoxification is an essential process for your overall health and well-being. You can also ask your doctor or naturopath to prescribe a heavy metals test in the form of hair analysis or a blood test useful for confirming suspected toxicity.
I just did one and found out that I had cadmium, arsenic, that I had a few years ago and were fully cleared, as well as mercury and aluminium (thanks to geoengineering!)
How to detoxify?
1/Food Binding Heavy Metals & Supporting Detoxification
Choose to eat organic, plenty of green veggies and fruits (especially those rich in vitamin C). Avoid processed food, farmed fish and deep sea fish and alcohol. Some foods can help clear heavy metals from your body. These foods bind to the metals and remove them in the digestive process. They are: Coriander (cilantro), garlic, spirulina and chlorella, wild blueberries, green tea, barley grass juice powder, Atlantic Dulse.

5/ Zeolite
Zeolite is a volcanic mineral that can effectively cleanse a wide range of toxins from your body and since your body doesn’t store zeolite, your body just excretes it once it’s bound to a toxin. Zeolite also helps balancing our pH by providing alkalising minerals and supporting kidney function. It can iboost your immune system while simultaneously protecting it from heavy metals.
Disclaimer: Remember essential oils should be used as a complementary approach to detox and should not replace medical advice or treatments. Informations given on this page do not intend to replace a qualified healthcare provider or naturopathic doctor who can assess your individual needs and create a personalised detoxification plan.
