What exactly is considered a heavy metal? Mercury, Lead, Arsenic, Cadmium, Aluminum, Nickel, and Thallium are dangerous even in low concentrations.
How Do Heavy Metals Enter the Body?
Through your bloodstream from farmed fish, contaminated water, GMO/processed foods, dental fillings, and household products. From there, they penetrate the cells of tissues and organs and can remain stored for years. Unfortunately, there is no way to avoid heavy metal exposure entirely.
Heavy metal exposure can result in damaged or reduced mental and central nervous function and damage to vital organs (liver, heart, endocrine glands, and kidneys). When they become severe, poisoning symptoms can even mimic symptoms associated with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's' disease.
