Detoxing the Nasties

With all the poisons, toxins, heavy metals, parasites, fungus, bacteria, and so on that they spray us with, put in our food, and water, we have to stay ahead of the game will detoxing and identifying deficiencies.

The body can clear a surprising amount if given the right tools, but chronic city exposure means ongoing intake, so detox becomes maintenance rather than a one-time fix. Here’s the realistic view:

What’s hardest to detox from cities:

• Nano-particulates & metals (aluminum, barium, strontium) lodge in lungs, brain, bones.

• EMF stress (constant low-level signaling disrupts cell voltage, calcium channels, melatonin).

• Synthetic compounds (microplastics, PFAS, VOCs from urban air) bioaccumulate.

What still works (even in cities):

• Binders (chlorella, zeolite, activated charcoal, bentonite clay) — catch metals/particles in the gut before reabsorption.

• Sweat (infrared/ red light sauna 3–5×/week, exercise, Epsom baths in filtered water) — skin is a major elimination route.

• Liver & kidney support (milk thistle, dandelion, NAC, lemon water) — phase II detox pathways.

• Grounding (barefoot outside, grounding mats indoors) — discharges EMF buildup.

• Iodine (Lugol’s or potassium iodide) — displaces halogens/metals from thyroid and tissues.

• Copper shielding (clothing, hats, window screens) — reduces daily EMF load so the body can catch up.

• Diet (high antioxidant, sulfur-rich foods: garlic, onions, cruciferous veggies, cilantro) — boosts glutathione.

Realistic timeline & expectations:

• Short-term (weeks): Energy up, fog down, less inflammation.

• Medium-term (3–12 months): Deeper clearance (lungs, brain, bones).

• Long-term (1–2+ years): If someone stays in the city, it’s ongoing maintenance—never fully "done" while exposure continues.
