How can you detoxify heavy metals from the body?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
You can't: This is a common subject of discussion by charlatans. There are even bogus labs that diagnose everyone with toxic heavy metals. If you are interested in this stuff, get with an evidence-based holistic physician. If you have an actual exposure, get with a physician with a focus in this area.

Many methods: This depends in part on which metals you are focusing on. The 3 most common concerns are lead, mercury and aluminum and there are different agents that are used for each of these. It would be ideal to see an integrative doctor with expertise in this field. A variety of nutriceuticals and pharmaceuticals can bind or chelate metals and saunas can also be helpful.
