Heavy Metal Toxicity

Heavy metals are rampant in our world today, and people don’t believe how bad they truly are. Heavy metals are minerals that exist in our earth, while some are good for us there are lots that can be toxic to our bodies. Heavy metals that are close on the periodic table to minerals we need are especially damaging because they can so easily push out the heavy metal our body needs and wants, replacing it with the one that is electromagnetically close. This can wreak havoc on our body leading to cancer, chronic immune deficiency, musculoskeletal problems like fibromyalgia, muscle weakness and osteoporosis. You name it, heavy metal can cause all of them.

At Maximum Health Clinic we work with lab tests combined with muscle testing to find out which heavy metals are causing you your problems. Then we prescribe a therapy – usually oral detox programs which work slowly but effectively and consistently to decrease your heavy metal loads combined with lifestyle counseling to change your exposure.

The key thing to remember is if you don’t stop putting new toxins in your body you can’t get better. You need to stop or take steps to radically decrease your exposure to heavy metals.
