What Is a Heavy Metal Detox? And Do You Need One?
Heavy metals are metals with high densities, atomic weights, or atomic numbers. Some heavy metals are either essential for human health (such as iron, cobalt, and zinc), but can be toxic in larger amounts or certain forms. Other heavy metals (such as mercury or lead) are highly poisonous.
Heavy metals can enter your body through your skin, or by inhaling them or ingesting them. When this happens, heavy metal poisoning can
occur.
Some reports indicate that people are exposed to heavy metals due to the prevalence of industrial, agricultural, and sewage waste.However, exposure also can occur through your DIET, medications, and work as well.
