A recorded conversation (July 20, 2023) about detoxification and clean-living strategies in an industrialized environment. A listener asks what to do when metabolomics tests show exposures despite efforts to minimize contact; the respondent reassures that the body is efficient at eliminating toxins and suggests not becoming disheartened while exploring cleanup/detox measures.
I guess this probably raises the question for people who might be making some of the same efforts I am, what can you do even if you're living a clean lifestyle in this industrial era that we're living in to actually take care of the type of issues that you're seeing if we know that despite our best efforts we're still going to get exposed to some of this stuff? So I guess it's kind of like what do you do from a detoxification or a cleanup standpoint if you see these type of issues on your metabolomics test and you're already aware of mitigating exposure?
Yeah, it's a great question and it does kind of point to that aspect. I think the first thing to do is to try not to get disheartened because I had a professor actually from environmental medicine standpoint say that the system's really good at exposing us to toxins, but it turns out that the body's really, really good, even better at getting rid of them.
