Heavy Metals originate within the Earth. Mercury is one toxic heavy metal found in amalgam fillings, some of the fish we eat, and in the air in some parts of the country.  Mercury is the second most toxic substance found on the earth. Some of the effects of exposure to heavy metals like mercury include: memory loss, fatigue, autoimmune disease, premature aging, speech disorders, cancer, depression, high blood pressure, gastrointestinal issues and chronic disease.  Our bodies handle being exposed to heavy metals like mercury and lead by expelling it from the body.  When toxins and heavy metals build up in the body symptoms and diseases start to grow.  The only way to make sure your body is not toxic with heavy metal is to be tested. 

The Maximized Living approach uses customized detoxification programs to check the body for heavy metal toxicity.  In addition to our detoxification programs advance workshops on nutrition and exercise are utilized to restore balance and healing to the body.  The most important tests are computerized scans of the nervous system.  The nervous system controls all detoxification and healing in the body.  When heavy metals like mercury and lead accumulate in the body the brain is responsible for expelling the toxins.  Interference to the bodies nervous system when present blocks the brains ability to control detoxification and normal function.  Interference to the nervous system must be removed immediately to restore health and vitality to the body.  To find out more about heavy metal toxicity, contact your local Maximized Living Doctor.
