High Toxic Burden and Detoxification
Detoxification
Chronic exposure to toxins affect the health of the cells in our body and can bio-accumulate over time contributing to immune system dysfunction and inflammation. We are exposed to a variety of chemical toxins in everyday life. Our body’s ability to eliminate substances foreign to the body is wonderful but rate limited. When our exposure exceeds our ability to eliminate chronically that can affect how we feel and even contribute to the development of chronic disease. We offer testing to look and see if heavy metals and other toxins such as glyphosate is an issue for you. We also look at bio-toxins such as mycotoxin as a possible factor in the current state of health.
We approach detoxification carefully and from a holistic perspective. There are many ways to support biotransformation and we do so in a personalized way when the timing is right in your health journey. We consider everything from the use of foods, to botanicals and herbs, and even mindset to help facilitate our body’s detoxification pathways.
Often there are genetic considerations that affect our body’s ability to detoxify. Some people are just better at detoxifying than others. Sometimes testing for the common detoxification gene variants can be helpful in providing insights.
