Heavy metals are a type of pollutant that can have severe negative impacts on human health. They can enter the body through various sources, including contaminated food and water, air pollution, and exposure to certain industrial chemicals.

Dr. Hulda Clark identified heavy metal toxicity as a significant health concern and developed protocols for detoxifying the body of these harmful substances. Common heavy metals include lead, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium.

Heavy metals can accumulate in various organs and tissues of the body, including the brain, liver, kidneys, and bones. They can cause a range of health problems, including neurological issues, developmental delays, kidney damage, and cancer, among others.

Symptoms of heavy metal toxicity can vary widely and may include fatigue, headaches, joint pain, memory loss, and digestive issues. In severe cases, heavy metal toxicity can lead to coma or death.

Dr. Clark developed a heavy metal detox protocol that involves the use of various natural substances, such as cilantro, chlorella, and vitamin C, which are believed to help the body eliminate heavy metals. She also developed a device called the Syncrometer, which is used to detect heavy metals and other pollutants in the body.

If you suspect you have been exposed to heavy metals, it is essential to seek medical attention and receive proper diagnosis and treatment. It is also important to take steps to reduce your exposure to heavy metals by avoiding contaminated food and water sources and reducing exposure to industrial chemicals and pollutants.

The Metal Removal Program, developed by Dr. Hulda Clark, is a comprehensive detoxification protocol designed to help eliminate heavy metals from the body.

The program consists of several steps, each designed to target different types of heavy metals:

Step 1: Remove Dental Metal

The first step of the program is to remove any dental metal that may be present in the mouth, as these can be a significant source of heavy metal toxicity. Dr. Clark recommends replacing any metal fillings with non-metal alternatives, such as composite resin or porcelain.

Step 2: Cleanse the Kidneys

The kidneys play a crucial role in filtering toxins from the body, including heavy metals. The Metal Removal Program includes a kidney cleanse protocol that involves drinking a mixture of herbs and other natural substances to help flush toxins from the kidneys.

Step 3: Remove Heavy Metals from the Body

The third step of the program involves using a combination of supplements and natural substances to help remove heavy metals from the body. This includes chelation therapy, which involves using chelating agents to bind to heavy metals and facilitate their removal from the body.

Dr. Clark recommends using a combination of chelating agents, including malic acid, EDTA, and DMPS. She also recommends using supplements such as vitamin C and magnesium to support the body’s natural detoxification processes.

Step 4: Restore Mineral Balance

The final step of the Metal Removal Program involves restoring the body’s mineral balance. Heavy metal toxicity can disrupt the balance of minerals in the body, leading to deficiencies and other health problems. Dr. Clark recommends using supplements such as calcium, magnesium, and zinc to help restore this balance and support overall health.

By following the Metal Removal Program, individuals can help eliminate heavy metals from their bodies and restore optimal health and wellness. However, it is important to work with a qualified healthcare provider when undertaking any detoxification program, as it can be a complex and potentially dangerous process.
