Foods to Remove Harmful Environmental Toxins

 It is common practice to ignore our exposures to environmental toxins. The human body will detoxify under the right conditions, but the detoxification is less effective if the body's systems are already overwhelmed with toxins from processed foods and substances such as drugs, medicines, and alcohol. One way you can help your body detoxify is to choose foods for their medicinal value. The following are suggestions for some of the more common environmental exposures.

For exposure to toxic metals, consider adding the following foods to your diet:
  • Garlic
  • Seaweeds or Algin
  • Miso
  • Wheat or Barley grass
  • Mung beans (to remove lead)
For exposure to minor doses of radiation, such as medical x-rays or other radiation treatments,  take one or two of the following daily for 3 days. For greater contamination, take one or more for several weeks:
 
  • Seaweeds or Algin
  • Miso
  • Wheat or Barley grass
  • Spirulina, chlorella, and wild blue-green micro-algae
  • Panax and Siberian ginseng
  • Buckwheat products
  • Apples
  • Fresh sunflower seeds
  • Lecithin ( 1 teaspoon daily)
  • Initate cell renewal: Essential fatty acids: 1 Tablespoon fresh flax oil daily

A fantastic external treatment for medical radiation exposure is to take a bath of sea salt and baking soda. Add 1 pound of both into a warm bath  and soak 20 minutes; rinse with cool water. Repeat 3 times a week for a month.  

There are also acupuncture and herbal treatments to assist in more targeted detoxification. Consult with your local acupuncturist for more options.
