There are many different hazardous heavy metals to be concerned about including: aluminum, antimony, arsenic, barium, beryllium, cadmium, cesium, copper, iron, lead, mercury, nickel, plutonium, polonium 210, strontium, thallium, tin and titanium.

There are many heavy metals in our air, environment, food, home, products and water which are major contributing factors to chronic disease and heavy metal poisoning. The goal of this blog post is to educate people to the common sources and provide several simple suggestions to help people avoid and then cleanse and detox.
