The First Question To Ask
Before wanting to detox heavy metals, the first question to ask would be: do you even have heavy metals to detoxify? How do you test heavy metal toxicity? What methods are reliable and which ones aren’t?
Hair Test?
If you know about heavy metals, you probably know that the most common way to test for heavy metals is with a hair test. You send a sample of your hair to the toxicology lab, and they will analyze it for trace minerals (including heavy metals) and let you know your results on a graph.
I actually did the test 10 years ago, and the results were accurate after all my experiences. It was saying that I had higher levels than normal of only antimony. When I compared my Canadian chart with an American one, the American one was saying that my mercury and lead were also high.
That’s the main problem with a hair test: even if you do it, you don’t actually know what healthy vs unhealthy levels are. Planet Earth has become so polluted that almost everyone will have a tiny trace amount of heavy metals in their hair.
Energetic Testing
So, what to do in that case? How to interpret the results and how to actually know if your levels are causing you problems? I now use energetic testing instead of hair tests. It’s more accurate, we can evaluate the severity of the toxicity, it’s instant and cheaper.
How Does It Work?
Everything is energy, that’s what nikola telsa said 200 years ago, and he was right. Everything holds an energy field. Humans, plants, animals, the soil, atmosphere, rocks, etc.
I analyze the energy through a pendulum or using my own muscles to evaluate the amounts of heavy metals in your body, and scale it from 1 to 10, for the degree of severity. That’s the only effective and fast method.
And no, it’s not black magic, it’s just energy. It doesn’t work for everything, and it can just answer yes/no questions. So, the questions asked will depend on the knowledge of the practitioner. It’s not a crystal ball providing solutions to everything.
Test, Not Guess
Once you evaluate by energetic testing and not guessing toxic levels of metals, you need to start detoxing. How do you safely detoxify heavy metals without causing harm to your body?
The Real Detox Method
Detoxing heavy metals is not a 24h recipe where you drink 1 chelation formula along with juicing cilantro, or whatever the gurus are saying on the internet. They probably never had high amounts of heavy metals themselves to know; they are just guessing here and there.
You detox heavy metals with other antioxidant minerals like selenium. Selenium is the “main” one as it’s the one performing the action of neutralizing (binding) the heavy metal. However, the human body is much more complex than that. Millions of chemical reactions are necessary to remove a tiny amount of, let’s say, mercury from your body, not just selenium.
What Else Is Needed?
The short answer is EVERYTHING. You need EVERYTHING to detox heavy metals. The body is a composition of many systems, and every system utilizes something for the detoxification process. The brain, the lymphatic system, the heart, the arteries, the blood, the liver, the kidneys, the lungs, etc.
Nutrients Deficiencies
Your body is as strong as your weakest link. I repeat that, YOUR BODY IS AS STRONG AS YOUR WEAKEST LINKS. What does that mean? It means that if you have a magnesium deficiency, for example, and magnesium is required for almost every chemical reaction in your body, you will be compromised from the start, and even more if you’re trying to detox heavy metals.
So, you also need to test for nutrient deficiencies FIRST to see what your body is missing. There’s a total of 13 vitamins and 21 minerals. Yes, the body is utilizing 34 nutrients every day, like magnesium, sodium, B vitamins, C, E, etc. You can see the complete list in our other article:
Testing Body Organs
Do the body’s organs such as the liver and kidneys, are used to detox heavy metals? Of course! As mentioned above, it’s a whole system process, not just 1 thing working.
So you also need to test for organ problems to make sure that your own organs don’t need to detox first before handling the job of neutralizing heavy metals.
Testing Your Food
What about the daily food that you’re eating? Is that also important for heavy metal detox? YES, you detoxify heavy metals with nutrients that you’re absorbing from food.
Depending on how much you want to detox, there’s always more than you think. We will evaluate ALL the QUALITY of the food that you’re eating and what you should cut or eat more of.
Testing Your Supplements
Do you detoxify heavy metals with food only, or are there also useful supplements out there?
Of course there are! And you’re gonna need isolated vitamins & minerals for detoxification. Since your body is not naturally supposed to have heavy metals, isolated nutrients will be needed to boost levels of whatever you need at the moment. We will evaluate that and guide you through the whole protocol.
90 % of supplements on the market are of bad quality. So, we also need to test all the supplements that you’re taking and suggest you upgrade. Taking a bad quality supplement does more harm than good. It’s not just about gulping whatever supplement you have at home; it’s a specific science.
What About Kids?
Although less common, kids who need to detoxify heavy metals can follow the same path as adults, but with a more conservative approach and more slowly, not to overwhelm their young bodies. It might just take more time.
