The first North-America study to test for harmful chemicals and heavy metals and the results show that North-Americans young and old are polluted regardless of where they live, work, play or go to school. www.ewg.org and www.environmentaldefence.ca

Metallic Lunch: An Analysis of Heavy Metals In The Canadian Diet

Canadians (and people in other countries) are eating lead in many foods - raisins, frozen dinners, ground beef and wine. Lead at any level can cause serious negative health effects, especially for children's behavior, attentiveness and IQ.

Canadians (and people in other countries) are also eating cadmium, another toxic heavy metal. Foods polluted with cadmium include peanuts, shelled seeds, cabbage, processed food, potato chips and french fries. (I have had several clients test positive for this!)

Get The Lead Out

Over the years stored lead will be released back out of the bones and possibly cause damage in the body. Symptoms are: Headache, weakness, depression, gastrointestinal difficulties, hypertension, memory loss, cataracts, and kidney problems.

What you don't know won't hurt you...Heard that before?

The truth, what we don't know may well be what is hurting us, or at least, keeping us from feeling our best. It is no secret that we live with environmental pollution and heavy metal contamination, but do you know how it is affecting you directly? Now you can find out and remove it.

Even Our Pets are affected!

High levels of 48 different industrial chemicals were found in household pets in a study conducted by the Environmental Working Group (EWG).

The group tested 20 dogs and 37 cats from a Virginia veterinary clinic, and found high levels of chemicals from mercury to fire-retardants and stain-proof coatings. According to the group, pets are particularly at risk of exposure to toxic household chemicals because they are commonly on the ground or their feet. Infants and toddlers are at similar risk, EWG said.

Oakland, Calif. veterinarian Gary Richter said that the incidence of diseases linked to these chemicals has been increasing in household pets.

Arlene Blum, a visiting chemist at the University of California-Berkeley, echoed Richter's call for more regulation. Blum believes that her cat Midnight contracted hyperthyroidism from fire retardants used in her home, and that children are at similar risk.

Due to hyperthyroidism, Midnight lost 50 percent of his weight in only six months and his kidneys failed. Blum tested Midnight, her furniture and the dust in her home and found high levels of flame retardants in all three.

"In lab animals, fire retardant was shown to cause hyperthyroidism, and quite likely that is the cause of Midnight's problems - the fire retardant in the furniture," Blum said. "What goes into our furniture goes into our dust, cats and our children. These unnecessary toxic chemicals were banned in children's clothes, but not furniture."
