Toxicity: You Cannot Escape It.

By October 7, 2017April 22nd, 2020Uncategorized
Unfortunately, the fact of the matter is you cannot escape from the toxins in our environment.  For a list of the biggest offenders see our previous blog.  These toxins are ubiquitous in our air, food, water, household goods and that makes eliminating them nearly impossible.

So, what can you do to protect your family?

If you can’t beat the nasty toxins, you better turn your body
into the detox machine that it was made to be.

In the last 2 installments on detoxing your body, we spoke briefly about the symptoms that help you determine if you aren’t detoxing properly.  We also covered what impairs detoxification in the body and some major sources of toxic exposure.

​Now, we will cover some simple tips you can act on to help yourself as well as diving deep on some of the clinical strategies that we, in the functional health arena, might employ to help get your toxin removal systems fully optimized.


First, you do this without drugs, which makes perfect sense.
You can’t fix a chemical overload with more chemicals!

Ready to get started right away?  Here are some strategies you can begin now:
  • Removal or Limited Exposure to plastic products, beverage and food cans, sales receipts, epoxy resins.
  • Get your blood sugar under control to Optimize your Glucuronic acid levels. You do this by preventing a low blood glucose event (Hypoglycemia) and high blood sugar episodes (insulin resistance).  These 2 problems cause a drop in Glucuronic acid which impairs the ability to excrete waste via urine, sweat, and feces.


The next several strategies will likely require some research or advanced knowledge;
​often the help of a clinician that is versed in the methodology is needed.

Optimize Glutathione ActivityIf you are struggling with a toxicity issue, and you or your clinician don’t know how to do this, you are behind the eight ball. We can help.

Down-regulate Beta-Glucuronidase. This is done through managing Dysbiosis – in our clinic we perform Gut repair protocol to improve this situation.

Dampen NF-Kb.  Test to discover if you need to eliminate systemic inflammation safely and naturally through your diet and lifestyle.

Optimize Immune-Chemical Tolerance.  Modulate the immune system; specifically, your T-Regulatory cells; Modulate Nitric Oxide; and lastly, improve, heal and seal the barrier system integrity (this is your gut/lungs, brain).

Optimize Hepatic-biotransformation. Make certain that waste and/or free radicals can be safely and effectively transported from the smallest unit of the body, the cell to the liver.  Once in the liver, the waste must be received and packaged (aka oxidation, reduction, conjugation) to eventually be removed via sweat, urine and feces.
