Toxic Heavy Metals
Exposure to harmful heavy metals is increasingly prevalent in today's world -- and the effects can be far reaching. From cognitive decline, mood issues like anxiety and depression, rapid aging and more can all be attributed to heavy metal exposure.
While copper, iodine, magnesium, selenium and zinc are all considered essential nutrients and are critical fuel for enzyme synthesis of our happy, feel-good neurotransmitters -- there is a catch. If levels of any of these “essential elements” become too high through environmental exposure, it can impact many systems of the body, from our cardiovascular system to our nervous and endocrine (hormone) systems and more.
Lifestyle factors like exposure to heavy metals through food, tap or well water, mercury in dental fillings and even the cosmetic products we use could put you at higher risk for unsafe levels of heavy metal exposure and any associated health risks.
