Question:
Is there a cleanse so thourough that it would help extract mercury and led from your body?
I know somebody who was exposed to mercury and led and I was wondering if there is a holistic way to release these toxins from the body. I was thinking maby a cleansing method or somthing. He is now unable to work because of it, But I was just wondering if there is any thing out there.
Answers:
The human body has a lot of trouble ridding itself of mercury. That is why most people simply keep accumulating mercury over the years and develop worse and worse symptoms. The thyroids pull out the mercury and send it to the liver. The liver filters it out and sends it to the kidneys. The kidneys push it down to the bowels where it finally leaves. Even if all four systems are in perfect working order, it is easy to overload the system if you have fillings full of mercury in your head, or if you are eating a lot of mercury each week.
As with any operation of your body, certain vitamins and minerals are critical to help your organs perform their proper functions. In the series of events required to flush mercury from your system, these vitamins and minerals are used:
* Selenium (brazil nuts, tuna, cod, turkey and chicken)
* Iron (red meat, egg yolks)
* Zinc (beef, pork, chicken)
* Manganese (nuts, green vegetables, tea)
* Sulfur (eggs, garlic)
Be sure that you have adequate levels of these five items in your diet. Note that it's interesting that tuna, which can contain a lot of mercury, also contains selenium to counteract it! Be sure to eat the "light" tuna - which is low in mercury - and not the "white/albacore" tuna, which is high in mercury.
