They interfere with the function of specific vitamins and minerals. This results in the malfunction of the enzymes that depend on those nutrients.<\/p>\n<p>2. They can displace nutrient cofactors from enzyme systems. The way that vitamins and minerals work in your body is interconnected. For example, Vitamin D depends on other vitamins and minerals that are present in your body to function. These other vitamins and minerals are known as cofactors.<\/p>\n<p>3. As a result certain processes such as the body&#8217;s antioxidant system are shut down and free radicals are left to attack cells.<\/p>\n<p>4. Heavy metals can be directly toxic to human organs such as the brain, the kidneys, and the cardiovascular system.<\/p>\n<h3>What are the symptoms of heavy metal toxicity?<\/h3>\n<p>Common symptoms are fatigue, headaches, depression, behavioral disorders, poor memory, dementia, peripheral neuritis, abdominal cramps, anemia and high blood pressure. Others are liver and kidney disease, and cancer.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately most mainstream doctors would not think of testing for heavy metal toxicity unless there is a history of metal exposure. The problem is that heavy metals only stay in the blood for about 45 days then they are stored in tissues and even bone so they are not going to show up in a standard blood or urine test unless very high amounts have accumulated.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a number of symptoms that you can&#8217;t get to the bottom of then it&#8217;s worth doing a heavy metal challenge test to see if you have have heavy metal toxicity. You will usually have to do this through a health practitoner who is familiar with heavy metal toxicity and the test.<\/p>\n<h1>How to do a heavy metal detox<\/h1>\n<p>There are a number of ways to detox toxic metals from your body.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Modified Citrus Pectin (PectaSol-C)<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Dr Isaac Eliaz, a pioneer of integrative medicine and tireless researcher<span style=\"color: #000000;\"><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/maria-rodale\/four-essentials-of-a-heal_b_1626845.html\" target=\"_blank\"> says<\/a><\/span> &#8220;Modified citrus pectin (MCP) helps remove heavy metals and environmental toxins from the digestive tract and circulation, and combats inflammation and improve cellular health and immunity.
