Heavy Metal Poisoning Could Be Interfering With Your Weight Loss Program

May 13, 2013 - PRLog -- Tried every weight loss program and fad diet on the market but still being harangued by the excess poundage? It may come as a relief to know that certain substances in your body could be preventing you from shedding that annoying layer of fat. Despite your valiant efforts, accumulated heavy metal deposits may severely impair your trim physique.

The condition, known as “heavy metal poisoning” indicates that a person has absorbed unacceptable levels of foreign metals. These include lead, cadmium, lead, mercury, nickel, arsenic, uranium, and aluminum.

Although these metals are toxic to the human body, exposure to them is quite common. We ingest them through canned food, refined grains, contaminated water, soft drinks, instant coffee, meat, and especially through seafood and fish consumption. They are absorbed as airborne contaminates through our lungs and skin from cigarette smoke, fungicides, pesticides, some plastics, inks, paints, solvents and fabric softeners. The silver fillings that reside innocently in our teeth are proving to be serous sources of mercury exposure.  

The presence of these metals can lead to numerous health issues, including the inability to lose weight. Specifically, the lack of a healthy thyroid gland influences retention of fat cells. There is scientific evidence showing that lead, cadmium and mercury impair thyroid function. In this case, no amount of dieting or exercise will make a difference to an individual with a sufficiently affected thyroid gland.

Inhibiting healthy thyroid function is only one way that toxic metals could impact weight loss. These toxins also directly poison and inhibit the mitochondria, or the little fat burning furnaces inside our cells.

Ironically, toxic heavy metals are stored in our fats cells. The very things we want to be rid of are the culprits blocking the way. Fortunately for Las Vegas and area residents, a local natural health clinic offers remarkable solutions for ridding the body of toxic metals that hinder weight loss.

The Henderson office for Natural Health Sciences of Arizona, LLC is owned by Jack Miller, Certified Traditional Naturopath. His comments regarding heavy metal detoxification are hopeful for people that have failed to lose weight, no matter what.

“The natural modalities we use in the clinic combine homeopathy with a cold laser to assist individuals in eliminating the various toxins that we all accumulate in our bodies from living in an industrialized country. Once the body is rid of harmful foreign metals and other substances, it can return to its normal homeostasis. Although we don't specialize in weight loss, we have seen some significant results with clients that had almost given up on weight loss programs.”

Mr. Miller’s protocols are designed to energetically identify heavy metals on a case by case basis. Heavy metal poisoning affects more than weight loss - it is a serious health problem and should be approached with concern.
