Greetings!

close up JimI got into the field of nutrition as a direct result of my experience with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in the 1980s. After seeing dozens of healthcare practitioners and still feeling exhausted I finally improved my health when I addressed the underlying causes of my poor health.

 

The most important factor was the high levels of toxic metals in my body and the resulting suppression of my immune and digestive systems.  

 

Recently I've been receiving many clients who have chronic health problems that do not respond to any treatment with medications, diet or endocrine enhancing supplements. All of these people have high levels of toxins in their bodies primary among these being toxic metals.  

 

Make sure you follow my three-step preparation phase (see below and in video) prior to the doing a heavy metal (HM) detoxification program.  

 

Enjoy,

Three-step preparation phase to heavy metal detoxification
Many people have started HM detoxification programs without preparing for it properly and have, not only not received the benefits they were seeking, many have caused harm to the bodies by stimulating the release of cellular stores of heavy metals without opening their detoxification pathways. The toxic metals damaged tissues, organs and glands and got redeposited into the tissues.

Three steps to prepare for heavy metal detoxification:
  1. Get on the right eating plan for your individual biochemistry. Each of us has a unique biochemistry and we need to find the right foods for ourselves. This can be done with metabolic typing or other individualized assessment. I can help you do this in 15-20 minutes. Those of you who are serious about HM detoxification should contact my office and I will incorporate this into your first consultation.     
  2. Make sure your bowels are moving regularly and check your liver and kidney function - either through a medical test or self -evaluation questionnaire ( I can email this to you before our first consultation). Most people will need support for their liver and kidneys before and during the HM detox program. 
  3. Get a baseline test to determine which, if any, heavy metals are adversely affecting your health. The results of this will determine which heavy metal detoxification program is best for you. There are several ways to assess HM levels including: urine testing (through a doctor) and hair tissue mineral analysis ( I can do this for you).

Once you have accomplished these three steps you are ready to start clearing HMs from your system at a much faster rate than you currently are able to do.   

 

The health improvements you can experience are amazing when you get the HM load down to lower levels. In my experience I got my life back when I cleared up the mercury and nickle toxicity that had crushed my immune system.  

 

When you clear up HM toxicity most people will feel: more energy, clearer thinking, less pain, sleep better, better elimination and digestion, get less colds and flus, reduce headaches and overall more vibrant health.  

 

I hope this information has been useful to you. Please feel free to email or call me with feedback or questions.
