Heavy Metal Toxicity

• Have you ever considered you could be lead toxic? It’s everywhere, even in lipstick.
• Do you regularly eat fish, or do you have amalgams? Then the chances are you’re mercury toxic.
• Environmental pollution can be a killer. Are you poisoned?
• Are you breathing in freeway dust every day? Then your body is probably toxic.

Pollutants invade the body’s tissue just as they invade the bloodstream. In particular, heavy metals can contribute to degenerative diseases. They can also cause symptoms, such as chronic fatigue, memory loss, insomnia, unexplained tremors, depression, and chronic headaches, among other problems. Ridding the body of these toxic substances may improve a person’s ability to live longer, relieve life-debilitating symptoms, and may even improve a person’s resistance to the effects of some diseases.

How we treat Heavy Metal Toxicity in Tampa Bay

At LifeWorks we recommend oral or IV Chelation Therapy as the primary treatment of heavy metal intoxication by lead, cadmium, aluminum, mercury, arsenic, and even iron. Each patient receives a full medical evaluation and screening blood tests before receiving chelation therapy. Chelation is an intravenous therapy with an amino acid called EDTA (Ethylene-diamine-tetra-acetic acid). This substance binds toxic metals and removes them from the body so that they can not continue to cause harm.
