How to Clear Out the Deepest Toxins

Consistently eating well, exercising, and doing regular semi-annual detoxifications will help bolster your immunity. However, many of us are storing dangerous heavy metals and chemicals that move out slowly. These may require deeper dredging of our system. Metal Magnet and Modifilan are two special items to accelerate this process. You can take either one, your choice.

Metal Magnet is purified humifulvate complex, containing humic, fulvic, and phenolic acids. This proprietary formula is derived from a 3,000-year-old Hungarian peat deposit. It has been the subject of more than four decades of scientific research, showing it can bind to heavy metals such as lead and cadmium. Heavy metals are difficult to remove from the body, so this natural substance advances our effective tools.

Read directions carefully and follow them exactly. Do not take other supplements or drugs three hours before or after taking Metal Magnet, and do not exceed three eight-week sessions of it in one calendar year, unless under supervision by a health practitioner. Metal Magnet is an Enzymatic Therapy product, available at health food stores and a number of Internet retailers.

From the depths of the ocean comes Modifilan, a pure, organic extract of brown seaweed known as Laminaria japonica. This product was born out of a Russian government directive to a group of scientists. They were asked to develop a product that would help Chernobyl victims, which it did, and now it is available to us. Forty to 50 pounds of pristine seaweed make one pound of Modifilan. It is processed using low temperatures and contains as much as 50 percent or more alginates, a pectin-like substance in seaweed.

Alginates are natural absorbers of radioactive elements, free radicals, toxins (pesticides, environmental pollutants, cigarette smoke, etc), and heavy metals. These include strontium, cobalt, lead, mercury, cadmium, radium, and other radioactive elements. For instance, mercury is a heavy metal commonly found in fish, pesticides, and amalgams (fillings) in our teeth. It is 5,000 times more toxic to the body than lead. It gets stored in fat and organs, including the brain, liver, kidneys, and nerves. Anyone exposed to electromagnetic radiation from electronic devices can have excess free radicals in their system. And who in the modern world doesn’t have electrical outlets, a microwave oven, computer, or cell phone? Therefore, it should come as no surprise that regular detox with a product like Modifilan can aid all of these organs, not to mention improve digestion, strengthen immunity, heighten elimination, help regulate blood sugar and cholesterol levels, and help rid the body of dangerous abnormal cells. 

Modifilan is the most effective seaweed product I’ve seen, with uses beyond detox. Take up to 5 grams per day for two months, then take a break. Repeat after a two-month rest, if needed. Children should take up to 1.25 grams a day for same schedule. As with the Metal Magnet, follow similar precautions.

It is reassuring to me that simple, ancient plants hold such help and hope for a world so out of balance—I hope you find the same comfort in this knowledge. We must respect and protect our beautiful earth for life itself, not to mention the countless precious medicines available everywhere nature flourishes. As was so aptly stated in Jurassic Park, “nature will find a way.” That’s what I am counting on.
