heavy metals


In this video I was interviewed by a woman that I met at a Day Spa in New York.

I met her at my lowest point during my Lyme battle. I remember sitting in the chair crying in the waiting room at the Day Spa asking to see the owner inquiring about Colonics. My doctors had all failed me and I just didn’t know what to do. She came up to me, gave me a hug, told me she was battling Lyme disease herself and that everything was going to be okay and started introducing me to ozone. She does a lot of work with doctors in the New York area and Ozone.

When I saw her recently she was amazed at how much better I am doing. I was shocked when she said she wanted to interview me. But, I nervously I agreed to do it. (My dog wanted in on the video too):-)

The Post Traumatic effects that I have from Lyme are devastating. Getting over Lyme was the hardest thing I’ve ever done, I’m still on my way and I want you to know that even though I try to smile these days and in this video. Those memories of 6 months ago, those dark times, were the scariest times of my life.

I questioned how it was so easy for some and harder for others. I remember getting so angry every time I heard someone recovering so quickly from this disease. I think there were a lot of factors.

  1. Knowledge (good doctors, good protocols, following those that have good success or sticking to the winners)
  2. Money
  3. Support.

I want to give people hope and hopefully save a life. People shouldn’t have to die or contemplate ending their life because doctors don’t understand, they are broke and they have next to no support. I couldn’t afford an LLMD at this point and sold off lots of stuff that I had. Even without the help of a doctor, there is still hope and if your antibiotic fails please, please don’t give up. You’re not alone. Write down all the things that you have to live for, post it somewhere and don’t stop until you find the answer.

God bless,

Heather

Far infrared

Far infrared

Some call it the ‘Light of Life’, others ‘Vital Rays’, NASA calls it ‘Bioenergetic Rays’; but, whatever nickname it is given far infrared has proven to be as important to human life as is oxygen, food, and water. (1)

Far infrared (FIR) is one range of the electromagnetic spectrum of waves emitted by the sun. Humans can not see this light, but know of its existence from the warmth they feel. To further explain how it is felt imagine yourself on a picnic during a hot summer day. It has become picnic protocol to set up the food under the shade of a tree. The air temperature does not change from the sun to the shade. So, why set up in the shade when the air temperature is the same in both locations? Because, the far infrared rays from the sun does raise the skin’s temperature when in direct contact. (1)

Unlike other saunas, the far infrared saunas’ heat penetrates at least 1 1/2 inches below the skin’s surface. This creates a deeper cleansing of the tissues. Far infrared heats the body directly. It does not use the air surrounding the person as a go between. The direct contact far infrared creates with the individual will result in a more intense sweat, while actually generating a lower temperature. This in turn allows more toxins to be eliminated than with other higher heated saunas. (2)

A 30 minute far infrared sauna is as advantageous to the cardiovascular system as is a 6 mile run. In fact, NASA has used far infrared for cardiac conditioning. With far infrared heat the blood vessels become dilated which helps lower blood pressure, increases blood circulation, boosts cellular metabolism, smoothes the walls of the blood carrying system and increases the production of both white blood cells and endorphins. The blood and its systems gain vigor which results in a strengthened immune system, quicker injury healing, normalized cholesterol, recovered energy and improved oxygen levels. (2)

Our tissues normally produce infrared energy for warmth and tissue repair. Tissue production of infrared energy is associated with a variety of healing responses. At times, the infrared energy in our tissues may require a boost to a higher level to ensure the fullest healing possible for tissue repair. (3)

Body tissues that need an infrared boost, selectively absorb infrared rays. The tissue will only use the infrared rays in areas were it is needed. After boosting a tissue’s infrared energy, the remaining rays pass onward harmlessly. This phenomenon is called “resonant absorption.” (3)

Research has shown that people that are chronically ill or with toxic levels from exposure to any toxin, pathogen, or nano advanced material have a lower base temperature than normal. Their natural far infrared energy source is being dimished by the condition. (3)

FIR will allow the body to attack any infectious material, foreign invader (chemicals), biofilms, nano microbic material and biomaterials. The melting point of many chemicals is greater than the body, but FIR creates temperatures that are RADIANT HEAT (cold heat) and will not burn the skin just push out foreign matter. FIR accelerates your internal regeneration of cells and the removal of superoxide molecules and toxins. (3)

There is a plethora of chemicals the body can not metabolize so when ingested these toxins tend to be stored in fat cells. A Chronic Toxic Overload is created when hundreds of chemicals dwell in the body. This condition causes dozens of debilitating illnesses. Excessive toxins cause the mechanism which creates enzymes to malfunction, resulting in nutritional shortages, which in turn can lead to hormone and brain imbalances. (2)

The heat from far infrared prevents the growth of bacteria and molds. Along with this effect, caused by the heat, the body will also activate its immune system anytime its core temperature rises above the norm. This stimulation of the immune system helps the body to more quickly rid itself of other illnesses. (2)

  • Infrared Sauna heat increases your blood circulation and stimulates the sweat glands, releasing built up toxins in the body. (5)
  • Daily sauna sweating can help detoxify your body as it rids itself of accumulated highly toxic metals (lead, mercury, nickel, and cadmium) as well as alcohol, nicotine, sulfuric acid, and other organic and inorganic compounds. (5)
  • infrared heaters will raise your core body temperature, inducing an artificial fever. Fever is the body’s natural mechanism to strengthen and accelerate the immune response, as seen in the case of infection. (5)
  • This enhanced immune system, combined with improved elimination of toxins and wastes via intense sweating, increases your overall health and resistance to disease. (5)

In many countries radiant heat therapy is widely used to treat patients suffering from many forms of arthritis. Radiant heat has also been effective in the treatment of sprains, neuralgia, bursitis, muscle spasms, joint stiffness and many other muscular-skeletal ailments. Much of the stiffness, aches and soreness that comes with aging is reduced or eliminated. (5)

People not only absorb far infrared, but also emit it. The ancient art of ‘laying on of hands’ is actually the skill of releasing far infrared energy from the healer to the patient. The level of far infrared produced by each individual mirrors their general health. As they become ill their radiation of far infrared goes down, and vice versa as health is restored. (1)

Hi Guys,

Well, things are going great for me now that I finally have my life back. I’m studying again for the bar exam and surprisingly super excited. I was in Barbri today and saw all these people so scared out of their minds about the exam. I just sat there with my little laptop laughing. These people wouldn’t know stress if it hit them dead on!

So I guess I made a promise to myself. Well…a couple of promises.

  1. I would help other fellow Lymies get out of this disease that completely takes away your life, makes you homeless, near bankruptcy at times, alienates you from people and your entire family…yeah you got the hint :(
  2. Live life to the fullest once I’m out. It’s baby steps because I have so many doctor bills to take care of that I put off during my illness but I know that everything will be fine.

OH, but that’s not what I wanted to talk about…

Heavy Metals: Grrrrr…I hate this topic because so many people brought it up to me and I was so frustrated. There were two things I hated the doctor and Perry saying to me throughout these 4 years of HELL (I’m NOT sugar-coating it) “Heather, you need to detox and take care of those Heavy Metals.”

What are Heavy Metals exactly? Good question! Heavy Metals (from what I learned) and guys I’m an associate at a law firm so I’m NOT a medical doctor…But supposedly it’s a combination of metals accumulated in the tissues. It could be from flu shots, cooking or even metal fillings. I even heard through the grapevine that some of our deodorants have aluminum.

Here is a list of Toxic Metals:

  • Mercury
  • Aluminum
  • Cadmium
  • Arsenic
  • Lead
  • Nickel, and other metal poisons that flood the environment and invade your body.

Toxic metals can cause or contribute to  Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and other brain and neurological disorders. While the medical establishment recognizes the acute toxicity that comes from high levels of metals in your body, far more people suffer the adverse effects of low-level, chronic exposure.

I regret all those times I cooked in college with that stupid Teflon pan trying to save money and time. Man if I knew what I know now I would have never used that pan. Of course when I cook people look at me like I’m crazy when I refuse to microwave my foods (I’ll have more on that in a moment).

So for my heavy metals I took a mixture of broken cell wall Chorella and Cilantro  for a period of 4 months. It was grueling. I must say when it arrived in the mail I was the most sarcastic individual. “Great! I’m dying and salad dressings are going to cure me?!”  But, it worked! I also used Zeolite which was great! Everyday I felt a pulling in my head and realized that was from the heavy metals being drawn out from the tissues.

But there is good news! Limit your exposure! I found this list from Dr Mercola’s website.

  • Use glass, cast iron, carbon steel, titanium, and enamel cookware. Both aluminum and Teflon are well known for their toxic dangers, and stainless steel can expose you to carcinogenic nickel.
  • Minimize consumption of restaurant food as restaurants are required to use stainless steel pots and vats.
  • Avoid stainless steel thermoses; the glass lined kinds are best. Later this year I will be offering glass water bottles that can also be used in lieu of a thermos, with neoprene sleeves to protect them from breaking.
  • Avoid  cosmetics with aluminum bases, mineral powders that contain bismuth, and aluminum laden antipersirants, which have been shown to increase Alzheimers risk as much as 300 percent!
  • Avoid vaccinations that inject mercury or aluminum directly into your bloodstream.
  • Avoid and remove dental amalgam fillings.
  • Avoid stainless steel orthodontics such as braces and palate wideners.
  • Avoid costume jewelry if you are sensitive to metals.
  • Avoid smoking and second hand smoke as it causes cadmium poisoning.
  • Make sure you purchase your natural herbal remedies from a reputable source with strict quality testing.
  • Avoid conventional housecleaning products
  • Avoid conventional insecticides and herbicides. Also be VERY cautious when using the “natural alternative” Borax (boric acid), which can also cause serious health problems, including death.
