Do you have heavy metal toxicity?
 
Do you have foggy memory? Or trouble concentrating? Are you suffering from headaches?

Does your child have attention disorder? Or is he or she restless and hyperactive?

If so, then you and your child may have heavy metal toxicity.
















Everyone is exposed to heavy metals every day. Everywhere you turn, you will see a source of heavy metals: from air pollutants to drinking water to vegetables to cosmetics and even vaccines (Table 1). This constant exposure allows heavy metals to accumulate in the system, causing many problems such as memory loss, heart problems, difficulty concentrating and behavioral issues and cancer, among others. The effect of heavy metals on children is even more dangerous because of their more delicate systems.

So how do you know if you have heavy metal toxicity? Read on...

HEAVY METAL TOXICITY MARKERS
 
A blood test, urinalysis or hair analysis can detect levels of heavy metals in the system. Without these tests, you can look for physical markers that signify heavy metal toxicity, such as the following:
  • Dark protruding veins under the tongue with red/black spots
  • Black- or blue-colored nails
  • Dark/blue lines/discoloration on gum
  • Metallic taste in mouth
If you have the above markers then it means you have heavy metal toxicity. The dark colored nails or gum and the spots under the tongue indicate metal deposits.


HEAVY METALS AND THE RISK OF ANGIOPLASTY
 
If you have red or black spots under your tongue (Figure 1) as well as an earlobe crease (Figure 3), you have a high risk for heart disease and may have to undergo heart surgery (angioplasty or bypass) eventually.

Heavy metals are known to cause inflammation, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, vascular damage, plaque, blood clots and more. If this can be controlled, angioplasty and other heart procedures can be avoided. Besides, about 38% of angioplasty procedures have been found to have no benefit at all (Reference: JAMA. July 2011). Furthermore, those who undergo open heart surgery have a 5% chance of death during the operation.

Taking herbs like Metal Flush, Vein Lite, OxyPower and Asparagus Extract may help you remove the heavy metals, improve heart function and likely avoid heart surgery altogether.




HEAVY METALS AND MEMORY LOSS
 
Heavy metal toxicity is also linked to memory loss, dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. We see this in the following case.

F.F., an 80-year-old female from Florida, has an ear crease (sign of heart problem) and dark, protruding veins under the tongue (heavy metal toxicity) (see Figure 3). She does have hypertension, heavy metal toxicity and now has severe memory loss.

So if you are starting to have memory loss and dementia, consider heavy metal toxicity. You can use the above markers or have a hair analysis to confirm it.

In F.F.’s case, we see that heavy metal toxicity has affected both her cardiovascular function (she has hypertension) and cognitive function (memory loss). Many heavy metals are linked to cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

Mercury is known to destroy brain cell function. It causes tangled neurofibrils in the brain, which influence the physiological changes in the brains of Alzheimer’s patients. Aluminum, too, is associated with cognitive decline. Tangled nerve fibers in the brains of people with AD contain unusually large amounts of aluminum, according to Dr. Daniel Perl of the University of Vermont College of Medicine. Aluminum toxicity is seen in many dementia and AD patients, like in this case.

G. Simonian, DC from California, has an 80-year-old female patient with memory loss and dementia. A hair analysis revealed that her aluminum level was high. She took Metal Flush, Vein Lite and used Bathdetox and reduced her aluminum level after 3 months (Table 2).








Again, taking Metal Flush with Vein Lite, OxyPower and Asparagus Extract can help remove heavy metals and improve both heart function and reduce the risk of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.

HEAVY METALS AND THE THYROID
 
More than 60 million Americans have some type of thyroid problem, with many more not even aware that they have a thyroid issue. One of the causes of thyroid disease is heavy metal toxicity. The thyroid is very sensitive to heavy metals so any accumulation can damage it.

About 30-40% of Americans have thyroiditis. Treatment of thyroiditis is usually with iodine radiation. Iodine is naturally absorbed by the thyroid. With radiation though, only about 20-30% of the iodine goes to the thyroid, the rest are absorbed in tissues such as in the breast, brain, bone, etc. Too much iodine can also pose a problem.

Other elements in the same orbital as iodine, such as chlorine, fluorine and bromine, can replace iodine and be absorbed by the thyroid as well. These also occupy iodine receptors, inhibiting iodine transport as well as conversion of T4 to the more active T3, eventually causing thyroid issues. So it is essential not only to remove metals and toxins when treating thyroiditis but also to avoid chlorinated water and toothpaste with fluoride as well.
METAL FLUSH: Oral Chelating Herbal Supplement for Lead, Mercury, Cadmium Toxicity and More
 
Conventional treatment of heavy metal toxicity is through chelation with agents such as EDTA and DMPS. EDTA is typically used to remove heavy metals such as lead while DMPS is used to remove mercury. Both are usually administered intravenously and are quite expensive because you have to undergo several treatment sessions. In addition, there are certain limitations to who can use these chelating agents. Children, for example, will have difficulty undergoing EDTA chelation because it involves being still for a few hours while it is administered intravenously. Those who have kidney problems also cannot undergo intravenous EDTA treatment. EDTA and DMPS also have side effects like skin rashes, dizziness, weakness, low blood pressure, and flu-like symptoms.

Metal Flush is an oral herbal supplement that is a much safer and more cost-effective alternative to EDTA and DMPS. Besides, it has no side effects compared to conventional chelation. What makes it such a unique supplement are the following properties:

Metal Flush binds to more heavy metals than EDTA without stripping essential trace elements

Metal Flush binds to many heavy metals including lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), aluminum, arsenic, etc. Unlike EDTA or DMPS, it does not strip away essential minerals so there are no side effects and there is no need for supplementation while taking it.

In Table 3, EDTA is shown to have a higher chelating formation constant than Metal Flush, but it does not remove mercury. Significantly, EDTA also has a high chelating constant for zinc (Zn), which means that at the same time it is removing the harmful metals like Pb and Cd, it is also stripping away the essential Zn mineral. This is the reason why patients who have undergone EDTA chelation often have to take mineral supplements afterward.









Metal Flush safely removes metals through urine and stool


Metal Flush not only removes heavy metals through the kidneys but also increases the binding of methionine – an amino acid found in the liver – to metals in the liver thirty times, aiding in the removal of the metal complex through fecal excretion, thereby relieving kidney burden.


Metal Flush recovers liver function due lead toxicity, EDTA cannot

EDTA cannot recover liver damage caused by lead toxicity. Metal Flush, however, can recover liver damage and does not inhibit hemoglobin biosynthesis.

In a 3-week in vivo study, delta-aminolevulinic acid (delta-ALA) was tested in the urine samples. Determining the delta-ALA level is important because two molecules of delta-ALA condense to form porphobilinogen, a precursor of heme, hemoglobin, bilirubin, etc. An increased amount of Pb in the body also increases the delta-ALA level, which indicates damage to the liver, circulation and red blood cells. In this study, the delta-ALA in the EDTA group was 0.290, which was much larger than the Metal Flush group’s 0.089 (the control group’s delta-ALA in urine was 0.079). This signifies that EDTA cannot recover liver function while Metal Flush does.

Metal Flush: Safe for Children 3 years and Older with Heavy Metal Toxicity and ADHD

If a child is hyperactive, irritable, has a short attention span, has trouble concentrating and has irregular sleeping habits, he or she may have Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). About 50-80% of ADHD cases in children will continue through puberty. By that time, symptoms will be more pronounced and severe. So it is best to treat ADHD at a younger age and not wait until puberty. Heavy metal toxicity is tied to ADHD. Lead, for example, can cause many neurologic changes in the young brain.

As demonstrated in the following study, Metal Flush naturally and safely removes lead in children ages 3 and older and reduces or eliminates associated symptoms as well. Metal Flush is ideal for ADHD children because it would be difficult for them to sit through a 3-4-hour EDTA treatment, not to mention they have to go through several of these treatment sessions.

A study was conducted on 68 children ages 3-12 (33 boys, 35 girls) who exhibited various symptoms as a result of elevated levels of Pb (Figure 4). In this study, the average Pb content was 0.24 µg/ml initially. Normally, it should not exceed 0.1 µg/mL. Their blood levels of zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), calcium (Ca), and manganese (Mn) were also measured. After two weeks of taking Metal Flush, their average Pb level dropped to 0.12 µg/mL. Significantly, the average amount of Zn after two weeks increased to 4.87 µg/mL, an increase from the initial amount of 4.58 µg/mL. Levels of the essential minerals Cu, Fe, Ca, and Mn remained stable. Symptoms such as loss of appetite, hyperactivity, irregular sleeping habits, and irritability also improved.
















J. Kaslow, MD from CA, says that he has tried many different formulas for children with ADHD but only Metal Flush works. He recommends giving a child a buffered Vitamin C drink in the morning and Metal Flush in the evening. From his experience, a month of Metal Flush has reduced hyperactivity in every child he has treated.


The neurotransmitters, norepinephrine and dopamine, may also be low in ADHD. To improve these, Chi Happiness and Chi Energy are recommended.
Kidney patients can take with Asparagus Extract and use with Bathdetox
 
One of the requirements for patients undergoing EDTA or DMPS chelation is to have good kidney function because, through these agents, the metals are removed exclusively through the kidneys. EDTA or DMPS may cause further kidney damage among those with impaired kidney function.

The good news is that Metal Flush can be taken by these patients when combined with Asparagus Extract and Bathdetox. Metal Flush by itself removes the metals through two avenues, the kidneys and the intestines, so there is already less burden to the kidneys. Asparagus Extract and Bathdetox facilitates the removal of the metals through increased urination and improving kidney function.
Take Metal Flush with Vein Lite, OxyPower and Asparagus Extract for Optimal Results
 
Taking Metal Flush with Vein Lite, Oxypower and Asparagus Extract can produce faster results and also help improve cardiovascular and cognitive functions.

VEIN LITE is a natural supplement that reduces blood clotting factors. It enables blood to flow more smoothly, promoting circulation and the removal of heavy metals from the bloodstream.

OXYPOWER is a potent antioxidant that effectively reduces C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and inflammation as well as repairs and protects vascular endothelial cells.

ASPARAGUS EXTRACT contains high levels of selenium, which antagonizes mercury, lead and aluminum toxicity. In addition, it is a natural diuretic so it aids in the excretion of heavy metals from the body, especially among those with kidney problems.

Dr. D. Dornfeld, DO (New Jersey), always recommends that if every chelation patient uses Vein Lite and Metal Flush, the results will be better. For his father, Dr. Dornfeld has recommended just the Metal Flush alone with excellent results.
CLINICAL CASE REPORTS
 
A.B., 50-year-old female from Nevada, had 20 EDTA and 20 DMPS intravenous chelations which made her nauseous and very sick. After taking Metal Flush, Vein Lite and Asparagus Extract for 5 months, her heavy metal levels reduced (Table 4).














B.M., a 62-year-old female from New York, had elevated levels of several heavy metals. She used Metal Flush for 6 months and her lead level reduced from 14.83   ug to 11 ug (24-hour urine collection) (Table 5). She still needs to continue with Metal Flush to bring her Pb level down to within normal range. Her mercury level, which was at 5.54 ug, reduced to within normal range after using Metal Flush and after her mercury fillings were removed.








M. McCain, ND from Arkansas, has a middle-aged female patient with heavy metal toxicity who took Metal Flush. After 5 months, her improvement was tremendous (Table 6).

SUMMARY

When you see red or black spots under the tongue or dark discoloration on your gums or nails, these are signs of heavy metal accumulation in your system. Take Metal Flush immediately.

Metal Flush has many advantages over conventional chelation therapies using EDTA or DMPS:
  • Metal Flush is oral and more cost effective. EDTA and DMPS are administered intravenously over a number of sessions so they can be expensive.
  • Metal Flush is also a better alternative than EDTA or DMPS for children, seniors and sick patients. Children may not be able to sit still for hours while under EDTA chelation. Seniors may be too frail to undergo either therapy. Kidney patients will definitely not be able to go through EDTA or DMPS chelation because these can cause further kidney damage. Metal Flush, however, does not have these limitations. Because it is oral, children and seniors can take it. Kidney patients can also take Metal Flush because it removes heavy metals through both the kidneys and the intestines.
  • With Metal Flush, there is no need for supplementation because it does not remove essential trace elements like zinc and manganese
Metal Flush is best taken 3 to 6 months the first time and then 1 month every year thereafter for maintenance. A blood test, urinalysis or hair analysis may be used to monitor heavy metal levels during therapy.

If you are already exhibiting memory loss or have an earlobe crease (sign of angioplasty risk), take Metal Flush with Vein Lite, OxyPower and Asparagus Extract.

If you have a thyroid issue, check for heavy metal toxicity, and vice versa. The thyroid is very sensitive to heavy metals.  For people with thyroiditis, it is also important to remove heavy metals as well as fluorine, chlorine and bromine which can also bind to iodine receptors.

For children who show signs of hyperactivity or ADHD, recommend Metal Flush. Chi Happiness and Chi Energy may also be recommended to improve norepinephrine and dopamine levels, which may be low in ADHD.
