- I had a test done recently to test for various toxins in my body. I was shocked by the results considering I've been cleaning up my food and healthcare products for over a decade. Check out this video to see my toxin test results and what I'm doing about it.

A million questions!!! How do you know what to test for? How expensive are the tests? How long does detox take before you feel better? How are you going to feel during detox? Is detoxing going to release the beast sort of thing and cause more or worse issues? This doc is going to be overwhelmed soon! Is there a list of reputable doctors that understand and do this? Thank you & Carolyn & Josh for bringing this to the for front!!! It explains A LOT!!!
@@tamararobinson2069 Fasting is a good way to detox but avoiding toxins is essential or you may need to fast weekly. Eight hours after you eat, you begin to detox so a twelve hour fast daily is beneficial.
@@blisstickmystic Thanks
Looks like the test is $1000. Pretty steep.
@@Laura_B__ Mike Adams the Health Ranger may be able to help. He has a mass spectrometer and can identify everything in the blood
@@Laura_B__ 😕
Some pottery glazes contain tin. So appreciate your honesty in this.
Toilet paper is high in BPA as well. Also synthetic clothing, receipts from the store (touching one grocery receipt transfers more BPA than drinking out of a plastic cup for a year). I know. It's like dodging grenades in a mine field.
😢 I love this analogy, this is something that I am struggling so so hard with. Thank you for the info on the receipts.
We cant worry about these things. The mental aspect of dodging every pollutant is more destructive. Our minds can be much more dangerous than most realize.
@@BearsEatBeetzexactly. We can’t avoid everything. The problem is why can’t we handle these things? Terrain problems…
Wow, I wasn’t aware of the receipts being that bad…
@@CG-mj8tk i know!! Right! It sucks but we can just do our best to live in this toxic environment.
Hard to do all these things when you're low income and not able to make more due to severe disabilities and chronic illnesses. I do the best I can but can only do so much with the little I have. One thing I will say to anyone else like me is to do the best you can for the budget you have and even if a small amount it's all worth it to do your best. I may not be able to afford to go to a naturopathic Dr or get any of this testing but I can do the best I can with the things I store my food in and the foods I get. I hope that you are able to get better results next time Melissa and thanks for the videos
You're fortunate you can be on Medicaid. I'm make a little too much and can't get any help.
Try activated charcoal to help rid any toxins ❤
👍
I'm 72 and female. I have been Keto and Carnivore (2 months) since 2018. I did lose weight and did a lot of healing in that time. The last year I have seen changes. I not only stopped losing weight but started gaining. Intermitent fasting, omad or the amount of exercise I do is not stopping this weight gain. My exercise is to mow a 2.5 acre rough field for about 2 hrs a day with a walk behind mower. I know, why not just do exercise? Because I get great joy out of receiving something tangible from my work. The mowing is so hard but I get a nice area for my dog to be off leash and use her nose and dig and be a dog.And I build muscle. And no, I am not building heavier muscle that fast. I live in a forest and it takes a lot to keep it back out of my space. The more weight I gain the harder it is to mow or do anything. I am heading for the 30 lb gain mark. I don't have arthritis or high blood pressure. My blood panel numbers are great and my arteries are clear. I must be topping off my toxic tanks. You have given me the only explanation for this nonsense. I thank you and I look forward to the podcast with your doctor.
You're doing great Will be . Sounds like practical wisdom.
We did an ERMI test on our home to discover the mold levels. Activated charcoal helped to bind up and flush out the mold toxins.
You may have success taking essiac tea. I have seen massive health improvements, and I'm still taking it, hoping to correct hormonal issues. Genuine Essiac makes an 8-herb blend you brew up once every 2 weeks and then take three times a day. It's a commitment, but I have seen the best health improvements of anything I've ever taken. It has even helped ease carpal tunnel that would wake me up in the early morning hours with searing pain.
I wish you the best of health! It's really a lifelong work in progress. 😅
I would get testing done w toxins and hornone levels. Even in menopause hormones can be off, high cortisol can cause weight gain but your issue sounds betond that so I would go to the dr.
long term keto and carne DO tend to work short term but weight gain is common later on. Whole grains, fruits and veggies are what we are designed to run on--you need the fiber amongst other nutrients. remember that unless you are eating solely grass fed, grass finished organic animals you are eating a ton of toxins from the meat since their feed is gmo and has high levels of pesticides and other hormones designed to fatten them up for slaughter--which means they will fatten you up too
I have the same symptoms starting about the same time! I'd love detox details too!!
God Bless you Melissa. And thank you for sharing this information.
I am so sickened by our government who is complicit in this evil.
Right? They de-regulate with profit in line with big corporations and not with our health. In Denmark 90% of what we see on our grocery shelves is banned, and we need to speak up starting at ground level I guess
I'm sick of people blaming the Government for what Corporations are responsible for. If you vote Republican, then you vote for this because they are always attacking regulations..... ohh and guess what, The TRUMP Supreme Court just ended Chevron Deference, good bye all food, water and air safety.
Keep spouting your garbage. We all know the truth@@bipslone8880
@@bipslone8880more liberal lies!
@@tammyinwv1 How is it a lie? Republicans are the party of Big Business, small government. They like you blame government for everything but it's not government putting toxins in you body. So Just keep voting for the party that is destroying regulations. Keep voting for the "leopards ate my face" Party. Keep voting against your best interest so that you can "Own the Libs"
Thank you so much for sharing this! I am looking forward to hear your doctor speak on this and learning the detox system. Bless you❤️🙏
I can't wait for part 2. I want to know how to detox safely. I see all of these different detox protocols, but if you don't do it right you can get really sick and many are really expensive. So I can't afford to detox my system.
Hi Melissa, I have been watching you for 4 years since I had a total knee replacement during covid and missed gardening that year. I loved you gardening and homestead videos. I was sorry to hear about your health stuggles and your recent tests. I'm sure this has opened a lot of peoples eyes to the chemicals we are ingesting everyday. It's scary! I do grow some of my own food for my family and buy grass fed beef, pasture raised eggs and anything else to be as healthy as I can be. Thanks for all your info !
Don't forget all the plastic parts in coffee makers etc. Commercial canned products are lined with plastic. My gosh it's everywhere 😅
Question for the doc...for those of us who are strapped financially and can't afford testing and loads of expensive supplements, what can we do to detox in general. It's obvious that we all have toxin exposure and build up, so it would stand to reason that we could all use simple, daily practices to get all that out.
Exercise, Epsom salt baths, sauna, charcoal supplements used as a binder when sweating out toxins. Water filter, avoiding the "dirty dozen", ensuring high nutrient levels in your diet to combat the stress of the toxic load. Look up Weston A Price for nutrition information.
Eat carnivore style
@@intherightlight But what about all the toxins in the animals?
@@cerickson5256 There aren’t any unless humans are injecting it into the meat. Ruminants have an insane digestive tract which eliminates toxins extremely well!
Start by using glass for storing food. You can recycle jars from food. This includes the seasoning jars. Use stainless steel for cooking and baking. For baking you can also use stone. Shop at the farmers market and you can avoid the plastic the stores carry their fruits and vegetables in. You can buy cotton bags to store in or make them yourself. I have found creative ways of using old cotton for this. Pasta, rice, grains, seeds etc are sold in plastic for less weight during shipping. Just find ways of transferring it to glass. Go shopping at second hand stores, you will find great things to use for all of this. I started this a long time ago and store as much as possible this way. My biggest spending was at some point for big glass jars for flours etc. I found many at Grocery Outlet at a cheaper price too. I second the idea of eating more animal protein too, but look pasture raised animals or organic, wild caught fish etc. You want to avoid farm raised fish and standard factory farmed animals. You also want to avoid preservatives in lunch meats etc. Get a water filter for the shower. Water filter system for your main water usage of everything. Just be more aware of things and you will start your journey.
Looking forward to seeing how to detox from ‘forever chemicals’. I have not been able to lose weight for a few years now and actually have gained weight despite making/growing my own food mostly and/or buying local fresh or from trusted sources! 😩 I am now delving into changing the type of clothing and other materials we use in our lives. It is so much to do and think about that I never used to be concerned with or even know about. Very frustrating and overwhelming.
there is naturally occurring tin in dirt in many areas that will be taken up by plants. Do a test or ask the extension service if they can test for heavy metals in your dirt,
Can't wait to see the follow-up podcast and learn more about the detox protocol!
I’m remembering a post you made about a year ago where you were wondering if your lifestyle was worth it ….
Thank-you for sharing your journey
Thank you for bringing this to the forefront… Looking forward to hearing you speak more about the causes and what we can do about it after the fact.
Hope your feeling better now. Carolyn's results from the same test were also surprising. Eventually I want to get this testing done for myself and also my husband. What a dirty contaminated world we live in and God didn't create it to be that way. It's shameful what humankind has done to contaminate everything.
Thanks for sharing this with everyone, I care about this topic and am excited to see your progress. ❤❤❤
Such a great topic. Thank you so much for sharing this
Thank you for sharing your information with us. You are helping so many.❤
Look into the Health Benefits of Activated Charcoal capsules which you can purchase at local drug store. Years ago they warned that Pottery painted with green paint imported dishware was Toxic. B12 Deficiency is caused by Black Mold. You need B12 with Mold toxicitity. We live in a very humid climate near Lake Erie so we are running 2 Dehumidifiers in our house during the Summer or rainy season. One is located in our basement and the other is upstairs. I am tossing like 12 gallons of water from my home daily. That said, if your home has Duct A/C or Heating may require professional cleaning every couple of years. Ducts can attract black mold and well everything. Thank you for sharing.
I didnt know that about b12 and mold. Have you ever considered an high powered ozone machine to blow in your ducts and hooking your dehumidifier directly into plumbing so you dont need to empty?
I used to do mold remediation, now Im paying the price for it. Its awful but Im going to try b12 supplement.
@@BearsEatBeetzwhat do u mean by paying the price for mold remediation? I thought that was a good thing? Ty
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing your personal story with us!
👍
Thanks for sharing. Well articulated and needs to be discussed more and more. The forever chemicals conversation will be very helpful as that is something that I was under the belief there wasn't much of anything we could do except to try to minimize exposure as much as possible. Of course, the problem is that it becomes more and more impossible to minimize exposure to so much of these.
I recently found an American manufacturer of safer cleaner, plant-based & affordable cleaning products, laundry detergent, skin care, personal care cosmetics, they have about 500 of everything we use and their products are so safe they don't require childproof caps, I switched buying all my stuff from those big box stores and only buy from the wellness company. I'm saving money and the products are delivered to my door. It may behoove you to check it out. That is one way to eliminate toxins in your home environment.
It would be nice if there was a physician that could #1 work with insurance #2 work with whole family in mind. That way its not so overwhelming. Example, family meals etc
This is so interesting! Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you for sharing Melissa❤
Thank you for sharing. Sorry that you were so sick.
👍
Girl, I feel you. I gained 20+ lbs since birth control. I got off of it, and never went back to my original weight. I never changed my lifestyle, so I feel you with the infuriation of what you went through.
I'm trying to figure out how to get back to my original body. I see a new doc next week and am hyped! Not hopeful but hyped. I am late twenties, but I refuse to wait till I am 50 to be taken seriously with my issues
Thank you for sharing 😊 looking forward to the follow up and info on detox. You are inspirational!!
Thank you for sharing your health journey with us!
Thank you so much for sharing this Melissa! It helps spread the message about the toxic environment we live in and hopefully we can support policies to remove these chemicals from our foods/items. Also, time for the public to stop supporting non-organic food if they can.
Thank you for sharing. As we enter perimenopause we gain weight. You will be experiencing a lot of things that are caused by hormonal fluctuations. Eating healthy is crucial as we age. God bless you dear.
I'm so sorry you have been sick! I wandered why there was no videos. I don't watch Podcast , they are just way to time consuming, and time is something I just have not had for about 10 months. Glad you are feeling better.
I would love to know if your dr has a way to detox us from the shedding that everyone is shedding from the recent arm poke. I can't be around anyone that has arm pokes. My life has completely changed in the last 3 years and I'm going through the hardest trial of my life not being able to be in public places... no church, no grocery shopping, no family gatherings, nothing. I've been to drs who claim they could help and I trust them, and I develop a whole new set of problems. I would love to do these tests just to see what my toxic load is. I won't go to "normal drs" any more as I feel the lies have been too much since 2020. Does this dr do appts through the internet? What would costs be?
I think parasites were shed on me by those with the arm poke. I-v-e-r m-e-v-t-i-n helped.
I'll state the obvious: You've had your water tested, right? Whether it's well or water department.
I think that’s a great idea to bring Dr. Torrie on! Learning how to eliminate some of the most common toxins would be a fabulous idea! Dealing with weight gain despite eating a good diet is frustrating. But the cancer rate in our family has been awful. We need help!
Forever chemicals? Wow, didn't even know that was a thing! Would like to learn more.
Also,... the detox process.... basically, would like to know everything about it.
Wow! This sounds so much like CIRS. I learned recently that my body does not have the genetic blueprint for ridding mold. I’m so curious if anyone here has gone the Shoemaker route for healing from biotoxins which can manifest in a multitude of ways for people with CIRS (weight gain, POTS, MCAS, panic attacks, fibromyalgia pain, etc…) Prayers that you are felling better and will continue to heal!💛💛
Please ask Dr. Tory to discuss Activated Charcoal, it's uses, and the possibilities. I've recently begun testing my Mama theory that it protects against illness (cold/viruses/bacteria) and I have also noticed it has helped my headaches. I have so many wonderings about AC!
Me, also. Glad you posted that question!
Good question. I have done several detox protocols and activated charcoal is great for acute stomach bugs or toxicity...but if used long term is can disrupt your mineral/electrolyte balance because is pulls it out of your system. Using Zeolite is much better for long term use I find because it is selective and only pulls out toxins.
Thanks for sharing!
Great video!
The tin probably comes from the jar lids.
12:15. I feel so bad for all that you are going thru but I have to give glory to God when you mentioned how God protects us when you mentioned what the fat cells do. I didn’t know that. That is AMAZING!!!
I'm so glad you did a video on this subject. I have an ionic foot detox. When having the podcast about detoxing I'd appreciate it if you'd ask how well these work. I do see results so feel I made a good decision in buying one. I also see great results with the Asyra testing and using homeopathic detox. So looking forward to your detox podcast! I wish you well on your clean health journey
I’d like to know also. I have one and sleep like a rock after using it.
Question: does food-grade silicone give off any toxins, or is this a good alternative to plastics in the kitchen?
So sorry to hear you were doing so poorly Melissa! ❤ I would love to hear about the protocol for detoxing (and the why behind it), especially from molds. We're in a brand new home and I was getting very sick, so we opened the wall behind the tub and discovered mold. Very unexpected, but apparent it's a common place for it. :( I'm trying to get thru a detox protocol right now, but it hasn't been easy. I would love to hear about mold detoxing from another natural doctor.
I was having MANY unexplained ailments, weight gain was one….high fat grass fed carnivore helped, along with: magnesium, zinc, selenium, fish oil, vit D….but I’m sure you’ve explored everything. Prayers for you! I sure hope you get better soon!!
Interesting! But I'm curious how they know what percentage of the population has these toxins. Few people get a toxin blood test. Where do they get their baseline?
How do you detox specifically?
@@stephaniebell9093If you’re interested, I can show you a program that that does herbal detox
From what I understand, the CDC has, in recent years, taken blood samples from a representative segment of the US population to establish baseline levels of chemicals in our systems. To my knowledge, no significant studies have been done to establish potential health outcomes of those levels. It seems to be subjective. One person could have a trace amount of BPA in their system and get very sick, while another could have sky-high levels and be perfectly fine.
You take the number of people that get tested and then figure out the percentages of the ones tested. They don’t have anything wrong versus that have something wrong and then you can get a general number of the general population assuming you’re excluding or accounting for specific job traits or something that would expose somebody more than a general population.
@@stephaniebell9093 CZcams dox’d my response so here it is again: burdock or dandelion root for 3 months or Herbal Detox course by KP Khalsa. Google him
Interesting. Thanks for sharing your information. As for the tin - look at your cooking equipment as tin can be added to many metals....including canning lids.
I wondered about the canning lids as well?
@@MFaith777 they don't typically come into contact with the food and I would highly doubt it is the source, but something to consider. Additionally, a lot of folks are making skin care product, medicinal salves, etc and putting them in the decorative tin cans bought off amazon and the like. It would be interesting if there was a test for content much like there is for glyphosate.
One question I'd be curious for you to ask the doctor when you have her on your podcast, is whether or not it's possible that some of these toxins are in the soil itself, so therefore getting into the food we grow? Basically, is it possible that now matter how clean we live and eat, we will still have high levels of toxins because the earth itself is so polluted? And if so, is there anything we can do?
Yes it is possible that some of these things are in the soil itself. Or your water source. Or in the animals you raise and eat through the feed you give them.
Yes, those molds are found in many crops and can also impact animals who feed on affected crops, grains, etc.
They’re spraying the skies so yeah
So sorry Melissa to hear about your health issues! I am so glad that you are doing a program on this topic bc I have been experiencing some of the same things as of late. I just turned 55yo and I swear it seems as though my body just "broke". Many of the issues you shared I can completely relate to. 🙏
I'm grateful to The Lord for allowing me to see this video bc I have been praying for answers.
The only question I can think to ask Dr. Tori would be about detoxing methods. So my question is: Can taking Diatomaceous Earth help with detoxing metals in your system?
I'm also wondering if she can do testing remotely? I live in Florida but I'm very interested in doing the same testing that you did. Thank you again Melissa, I appreciate your openness in sharing your health issues 🙏❤️
Activate charcoal for detox & stomach issues is preferred & used for thousands of years
Thank you Melissa. I was amazed at the things I heard from Josh and Carolyn’s video but also hearing you have done the test and finding yourself with similar result is alarming. I’m wondering if Dr. Tory might share what other issues one might face with a toxin overload. Things like Lymphedema, high blood pressure, diabetes, neuropathy, auto immune disease, arthritis etc. Can these be the result of our bodies reacting to the toxins as well? Long shot I know but it would seem that all of the above mentioned issues are common today and I know personally people in my life with one or more of these and they have drug related treatments with results that are little more than masking the symptoms and can be expensive. Thank you for bringing this topic out for further discussion. God Bless You.
Ty Melissa
I had the same test (mold, mycotoxins, heavy metals) done by Vibrant Wellness. Shocking results. I have 7 out of 13 molds in me. My mycotoxin and heavy metal levels were cleaner.
The contrast dyes for CT and MRI scans are horrible for people. They are very hard on the kidneys and can cause both acute and long term injury. The dyes can cause Contrast Induced Nephropathy (CIN) where the kidneys have a sharp decrease in function of two to three days. This can lead to blood vessel and heart problems. Dyes can also cause Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis (NSF). This is literally a systemic effect on the body. If you ever have to get contrast dye, drink water like mad before and for a few days after to help your kidney clear it out of your body. Doing a toxin cleanse after is likely a good idea as well. I believe the modern medical system is designed to offer treatment for one issue that causes another issue so you become a repeat customer for life. This is coming from a Registered Nurse who has worked 20+ years in a hospital/medical setting.
I would also look at any dental work, xrays, fillings ect...
Thankfully I have no fillings or dental work, I was blessed with strong teeth
@@MelissaKNorris Same here. My wife hates me for it 😂
I believe the lids to your jars are tin plated
Probably already commented on but aflatoxins are often from grains.
I can’t wait for the results of your detox in the next episode! And to hear what you’ve been doing. It’s hard to see the levels and I’m sorry they’re causing such complications for you and it makes me so worried for my children and others like us who live in the city and eat food from the grocery stores. I can’t imagine how off the charts our levels are. We definitely live in a different world than last generations. Or like Bobby Kennedy says “our kids are living in toxic soup”. One question, sorry if you have already discussed in previous videos, but have you looked into parasites and your parasite load and/or tried to detox them? I know often they can trigger issues too and sometimes release toxins from storage as they’re killed and cause extra burden on the person
5:37 just a note: those nesspreso a delanno machines that make coffe from the capsules, may also release boa (from tge capsules and the machines themselves.. and if course bottled water
I am so interested in this kind of stuff
If you vote Republican, then you voted for poison food
Well this may explain my mystery 40 pound weight gain with NO change in diet or activity. I can’t tell you how bad I felt as both my GP and my cardiologist insinuated that something must have caused the gain and it was obviously my fault. After tracking the same diet I had eaten previously, I met with a dietitian. She was at a loss, as my diet is excellent. The ONLY suggestion she could make was that I need to eat more, in particular more protein. Cardiologist wants me to have weight loss surgery. GP is suggesting Ozempic. Neither of those address the issue of WHY did I gain the weight. Just confused and humiliated 😢
Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid) can be a result of weight gain.
Never feel humiliated just because doctors don't have answers for you, yet. The changes of perimenopause and menopause may also be a contributing factor. 😕
Don’t trust the pharma drugs they push. They make money from feeding people drugs. And as someone suggested an over or under active thyroid can cause weight issues also. Hope you get to the bottom of it.
Detox protocol would be amazing to learn.
Very interesting
Everyone seems to be doing this lately…you’ve probably seeen Carolyn from homesteading family and the testing they did in themselves and the feed for their chickens that had round up testing positive. Im very interested in all of this. So sorry for all the frustration and praying you all get answers you need to get healthier 😢
Sorry i repeated. I type before i hear everything as i want to get it in before the video stops
Also want tonmention lea from little house on the mountain. She has suffered inflammatory issues for year and has a heal your body course that she goes ij depth with her eatting, detoxing and general health and well being. She is a sweet soul, as are you and all my precious CZcams family friends❤
Hello Melissa I do love your channel and your knowledge you share very freely. Being a naive American most of do not know there is or are problems. If it was in TikTok we would all know about it lol. We are all so ready to just believe that we are and always will be safe because THEY would never hurts us!
I am so glad you have given this problem a voice. My ?? is how much did all this testing cost and is it within the average person's budget? Peace and blessing for you and your health. Steven
Hair analysis testing from a naturopath ,high barium and aluminum, $praylng..
Stay well and blessed
Eggzactly…. Those are a new thing! Forget coffee to go cups from decades ago….im not gonna wrack my brain trying to remember that stuff. It’s something else something more and I think u nailed it. At least a good portion of it that’s for sure ✈️
Regarding weight gain and weight fluctuation: perimenopause is a very common cause too. I hope you feel better soon. ❤
What type of "travel mug" are you using now for your coffee?
Could the tin come from the travel mugs?! You’ve got me thinking now because your symptoms sound exactly like me!
I’m down a rabbit hole now lol, enamelware is usually over steel/tinplate. So I’m guessing those pretty blue roasters are tin, and the enamel metal cups are tin etc. it can also be found in the air and water 🧐
Those molds are probably outdoor vs indoor from what I have learned. Very likely related to various crops. You should research it as you continue down your detox path. I just started researching them and it has surprised me. It can even affect cattle, poultry, pigs.
Question: is it possible that the seal for the canning jar lids leech out BPA when heated? It seems odd that your BPA was still so high if you were a barista so long ago.
Detox protocol for forever chemicals please
Question for next video: How would i find a physician in my area that would order these types of tests? My experience with docs has been less than helpful as they seem to only want to treat a symptom even though i have many. I would like to correct the cause and not just treat symptoms😢
Look for a functional medicine doctor.
There are commercials that I keep seeing about Glyphosate that say "Keep Glyphosate in Our State". 🥺 They are saying it is needed to protect the crops. We are destroying our soils which are being depleted of nutrients and micro-organisms from all of the herbicides, pesticides and over-farming and we are getting sicker and sicker as a human race.
I haven’t seen those commercials..is this on Network TV?
@@lesliejacobs3002I’ve heard radio commercials about it in Missouri.
To preserve crops, not people...
@@lesliejacobs3002 I see the ads at the beginning of youtube videos.
What detox protocol to rid bpa and other forever chems? Also, what is the blood analysis called that you had done, I want to ask my doctor to do also.
Do you think it could be from old cookware from "grandma's house"? Old pots and pans? Old china with glaze that possibly has tin in it?
Would love to see that podcast
I think about possible toxins in our water pipes, PVC and such. Even if we replaced those at our homes, what about the pipes that deliver the water from the source, even the giant water tanks? Whew, lots to consider.
Thankyou for your update. Hope you are feeling much better now. Question for the Dr. regarding detox.....is 70 yo too old to detox (esp with hererdity diabetes)? if so, how to do safely? I am probably looking at only 10 more years or so and with this much time, its a lost cause. I too gave up the makeup, roundup, toxic stuff I could as I have learned more info over the years. In todays society and living in the suburbs, I have to hope that I am making the best choices I can.
What type of hereditary diabetes do you have, type 1 or 2?
And all canning lids (Ball) used to be lined with BPA up until just a coup!e of years ago when they stopped! Tried to turn them in to Ball for replacements but could never get a response!
My grand daughter has been diagnosed with POTS and she has a multitude of symptoms...but I'm wondering if she has some toxins too that are making things worse. I will be following for more information. Thanks for posting..
Talk to Dysautonomia International. POTS is autoimmune.
Look up elders danlos syndrome….its autoimmune.
Please look into CIRS- it’s from mold mold exposure usually and it’s known to cause POTS and a myriad of other health issues
Carnivore is so healing!
Ugh ! Wake up for all of us . Makes us dig deeper and make more changes . As hard as this was and you are going through will help many of us . God Bless
I definitely want to learn about the detox! Also would love to hear her maybe top 5/10/whatever number (lol) swaps or changes to make that impact the level of exposed toxins.
I have a specific question too : what is a healthy swap for baking sheets? I am trying to get rid of my aluminum bakeware but I haven’t found the solution for that.
Azure standard has stainless steel baking sheets
Hi Melissa, one thing I haven’t thought about until now, have you considered mold and fungus exposure working with the compost pile?
have always believed a balanced diet and wholesome food is the way to live. Sadly, in these times the government allowances of these toxins are not for the benefit of anyone. We don't know what is safe to eat anymore. Thanks for this episode. Wishing you the best!
I went ketovore after seeing Jessica's results last year and dropped 20 lbs and felt amazing. Over the winter tho I went off it and at the beginning of this year got some milk kefir grains. Since I dont have access to raw milk, I bought organic grocery store pasteurized milk and drank about a quart of delicius kefir a day. Then I realized i had regained those lost 20 lbs and added another 5! Only recently have I learned about how absolutely toxic pasteurized dairy is. I'm also returning to ketovore and severely cutting dairy in an effort to excelerate toxic oxalate dumping. Unfortunately my suburban garden is probe to all of those toxins like glyphosate from the surrounding municipality.
BPA - toilet paper, cosmetic containers, deodorant container, toothbrush, toothpaste container, floss container, detergent containers, plastics used in our automobiles, sunscreen bottles, rubber bands/hair accessories…
I was just telling my husband, we switched to SPF clothing instead of sunscreen (where we reasonably can) but who knows what’s in the clothing 🫣.
I don’t trust those. Aren’t most of the fabrics unnatural plastic based?
I quit using sunscreen years ago. I'm very light skin, i never get burnt. I'm out in the sun all day long in the summer. I don't understand it, but try nothing maybe? Also we need that vit D from the sun, and alot of it. I think the no sun movement is a grift to make us un healthy...
Please please share the detox protocols. I don’t have a helpful practitioner near me and it’s very difficult to figure out on my own!
Chlorine dioxide. Mms is fantastic
Oh girl, if you haven't looked into finding BPA free canning jar lids you should
Please research BPA in canning jar lids, love you , Carla
Healthy Home Economist recently wrote an article about detoxing plastics. 2 ways that work are fasting and heavy sweating. Cod liver oil, especially combined with butter or butter oil, is known to protect from BPA.
I would be very interested in what your doctor says about how to do this detox when you’ve had to have your gallbladder removed. I have heard that without a gallbladder, doing a detox will put a ton of stress on your liver. I haven’t done these tests yet, I’ll be asking my doctor soon about getting them done. I have issues with loosing weight also, I’m sure I have high levels of some of these things. I’m in my 40’s, and haven’t been able to loose weight since my mid 30’s.
Question about the tin. Not sure if this is even a thing but does your garden grow near a tin roof that water runs off? Or maybe runoff from uphill? Could that be possible?
Melissa! Hello from Montana! Wanted to say thank you for the amazing conference in coeur d Alene! Bravo. Ive been following most all that spoke for years but i still learned so much! Question: can you get your bloodwork done without going to the doctor?
This is not the same test Melissa did but I ordered the Metabolomics+ test from Genova Diagnostics. It shows your nutritional status and toxin exposure. You collect blood and urine at home, mail off the samples, and get results in about 3 weeks. About $495, but worth it.
Thank you for sharing. Would love to hear how to do an effective detox. I am especially interested in detoxing from mold since I’ve had a lot of exposure.
Maybe link isn't working? It sends to purchase page, not site? Biography page etc...Shows agreement but in fine print says you are not a patient etc.... of course not, we haven't met yet! Lol. Is there another link?
Single pane windows are builder standard in Australia, so much mould and chest infections 🥲
Question: I’ve seen recent studies about microplastics found in the body, is there a relation to BPA with this? Do you address microplastics?
Thanks. Mary in WA.
Where is the best detox to start with is my question? I have lived a life exposed to many toxins so where can I start and how long does each detox take in your body? Any idea where to find this test in Canada?
