PART 1

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT TOXIC ELEMENTS

The next section of this book is scientific in structure as it discusses the origins of toxic heavy metals and other chemical contaminants such as pesticides, fertilizers, and preservatives. It also explains the way in which humans absorb these contaminants and the resulting health effects.

If you’re really only interested in the heavy metals test results for your favorite foods and superfoods, you can skip ahead to the charts section of this book, beginning on page 214.

But for those who want more in-depth research and explanations about how heavy metals and other contaminants harm biology and why they are so difficult to get rid of, this section documents the harm of heavy metals with a considerable amount of scientific explanation and research citations.

Just a warning, though: This section can get a bit technical. (Doctors, scientists, and biologists, however, will find it familiar reading.)
