My Experience With Mercury Toxicity

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health and Joovv. Mercury
enters our bodies from many different sources, including mercury
vapors in ambient air, ingestion via drinking water, fish, dental
amalgams, occupational exposures, home exposures, over-the-counter
products, and more. There’s no doubt about it: mercury is the most
alarming, disease-causing source of environmental toxicity that I
see daily in my practice.  In today’s episode of my series I’m
calling Health Bites, I share my own experience with mercury issues
and give you a comprehensive plan for reducing your exposure and
healing from mercury toxicity.  This episode is brought to you
