Why Heavy Metal Toxins Could Cause Gout Problems

Here’s an interesting letter I received from Ray Collins of the Good Life Letter:

Dear Peter Allan,

If you sent me an email with a tip for gout, then THANKS!

I’ve not had a response like that in quite a while. Gout seems to be one of those ailments brings out strong opinions and some fascinating stories.

If you’re interested, there are two really strong remedies for gout in my book The Honey Garlic and Vinegar Miracle.

From recent emails it seems that there’s plenty about gout I’ve not mentioned in my books or previous Good Life Letters.

WHY HIDDEN HEAVY METAL TOXINS COULD CAUSE GOUT AND OTHER PAINFUL PROBLEMS

Many people believe that heavy metals could be a cause of problems like gout.

I don’t mean to say that listening to Iron Maiden makes your legs hurt. (Although it may make your brain fall out.)

What I refer to are the metals that exist in our environment. For instance the mercury in fillings, or found in some types of fish. Or the metals in paint, car fumes, some forms of cooking equipment, food containers, deodorants (ones that contain aluminum) and polluted water supplies.

mercury

Even though these exist in tiny, trace amounts, over time they can build up in your body, causing significant health problems including headaches, memory loss, and skin discoloration.

One of my readers emailed me to say that flushing away some of these heavy metals helped remedy his gout problem.

He writes:

Uric acid and build up of lactic acid is often the result of a slow endocrine system resulting from heavy metal toxicity – mostly mercury – which HMD [heavy metal detox] clears.

HMD also are manufacturers and distributors for a product specifically to assist the ELIMINATION of toxic waste called Organic Lavage. This helps with both gout and painful bunions as well as fibromyalgia“.

Lavage is a herbal formula that helps your body get rid of toxins. It comes from the French word for ‘drainage’. It’s sold as a vegetable glycerine tincture.

I’m certainly going to look into this heavy metal issue a bit more for a future letter. It’s an interesting idea….

Yours as ever,

==================

Here’s one good Heavy Metal Detox I’d like to recommend to Ray:

To protect yourself from the onslaughts of mercury, arsenic, toxic chemicals and other heavy metals, regularly take Alfa HFi with Viral Fusion Inhibitors. Alfa HFi is made of nature’s most powerful anti-viral, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulizing substances, the humic fulvic acids.

Consumption of Alfa HFI immediately restores and supercharges the body’s resistance to disease and infection by helping the body in manufacturing necessary glycoproteins within. It also perks up the gastrointestinal tract as pro-biotic, strengthens the joints and bones, provides amino acids and electrolytes, and boosts oxygen for the red blood cells.

Enzacta prides itself on having Alfa HFI Humic/Fuvic Acid Supplement as a product of their state-of-the-art technology and special proprietary process called BioReady Nutrients© (BRNs). BRNs are nutritional complexes extracted, concentrated and naturally-enhanced for better bio-availability.

Tastes like Chicken

alfaHFI Fried Chicken

There’s more to chicken than meets the eye and it’s not just Bird Flu or the prospect of sprouting wings yourself for eating chicken breakfast, lunch and dinner (throw in merienda for that matter) almost everyday of the week.

Fried chicken, chicken inasal, chicken adobo, chicken sandwich, chicken afritada, buffalo wings, and maybe even chicken-flavored lollipop if there was such a thing — people are completely enamored with chicken that more volumes of recipe books were written about this meat than any other else.

But there is one thing that people may not be aware of, and that they have been putting themselves at risk every day by eating chicken bought from fast foods or dressed chicken from grocery stores. Aside from the fact that commercially grown chicken are kept in very terrible living conditions, inhaling the fumes from their own poop, and are laden with fat, sugar, and salt but low in fiber and vitamins, these chickens can also be pumped with a deadly metalloid – arsenic.

In a recent study jointly conducted by the National Institutes of Health and the USDA’s Food Safety Inspection Services, high levels of the notoriously poisonous metalloid arsenic was found among the 5,000 chickens tested from various restaurants and food outlets. The figures derived from the tests showed contaminations reaching 6 to 9 times allowing levels.

alfaHFI Arsenic

The question that comes to mind would be this – how arsenic amounting to 50 times the allowable amount in a glass of water got into my fried chicken or chicken adobo? A former Environment Protection Agency agricultural consultant, Donald Herman, explained that arsenic can be used as a growth stimulant for poultry. This information has been withheld from the public and is completely denied by chicken growers and fast food chains.

Does it mean that I have to stop eating chicken? Of course not! Just be sure that you’ll get the organic, healthy, no-antibiotics, free-range chickens that are fast becoming a sensation among lovers of good, healthy food. Restaurants and some fast food chains are also trying to switch to this more healthy variety – and so should you.

Toxic metals, including “heavy metals” are individual metals and metal compounds that negatively affect people’s health. In very small amounts, many of these metals are necessary to support life. However, in larger amounts, they become toxic.

The major critical organs for environmentally exposed populations are the following:
- central nervous system (CNS) of the developing fetus or child
- The kidney
- implication of some heavy metals in the development of cardiovascular diseases
- cancers in the general population

Heavy metals are dangerous because they tend to bioaccumulate which pertains to an increase in the concentration of a chemical in a biological organism over time, compared to the chemical’s concentration in the environment. Compounds accumulate in living things any time they are taken up and stored faster than they are broken down (metabolized) or excreted.

To protect yourself from the onslaughts of arsenic, toxic chemicals and other heavy metals, regularly take Alfa HFi with Viral Fusion Inhibitors. Alfa HFi is made of nature’s most powerful anti-viral, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and immunomodulizing substances, the humic fulvic acids.

Consumption of Alfa HFI immediately restores and supercharges the body’s resistance to disease and infection by helping the body in manufacturing necessary glycoproteins within.
