Mineral Balancing - removing heavy metals
-
Here is the idea, as far as I can tell. I don't know if it's true yet.
Heavy metals "mimic" minerals, so the metals replace minerals all over the body, and they won't leave because the body sort of thinks they are minerals that should be there. But you can remove the heavy metals by manipulating the minerals in some way so that the body will release the metals. Your actions are guided by frequent hair testing of minerals and metals.
I've seen this guy on twitter and instagram, Clark Engelbert. He has some testimonials that it works, maybe curing autism.

"the basic idea is that the body accumulates toxic less preferred elements when the preferred nutrient elements are not available.
What this means is that the best way to detoxify the tissues from these less preferred elements is with nourishment, rather than chelation, and ensuring that the body no longer uses toxic elements to perform biological functions at a lowered rate of efficiency.

"All the interactions shown are mutually antagonistic. For example, selenium antagonises mercury, and mercury antagonises selenium." -
So what does he suggest? Food? Mineral supplements? I scrolled through his twitter but it seems like the same info regurgitated with no suggestions on what to eat or take.

@Hearthfire To be honest, I don't know haha. I couldn't figure out what's recommended either.

Wow. If you go to his instagram and linktree in his bio, he's shilling so much shit. Coaching, mastermind programs. Not wrong to make money, but you can really tell when someone is less authentic by how much shit they're selling, what they're selling, and the quality of the information they're putting out.
This dude just seems like a money twitter bro and his shtick is detoxing from heavy metals and selling a bunch of courses and affiliate links to vitamins and supplements. Screams grifter tbh.

I run HTMA tests and generally do not recommend to chelate metals unless drainage pathways are open. I support which elements/minerals are displaced by the heavy metals (based on the test results) by increasing them in the diet and possibly with supplementation based on the individual. I do use gentle binders to help with elimination but not strong chelators.
