What is Heavy Metal Toxicity?
Heavy metals are trace metals which are natural components of the Earth’s crust.They are very stable elements and cannot be degraded or destroyed. Once liberated into the environment or used in the countless human-made chemicals and products, heavy metals are taken into the body through inhalation, ingestion and skin absorption. Because of their density, heavy metals are hard to remove from the body’s tissues. Heavy metal toxicity occurs when these heavy metals build up in our system.
