Toxic elements that accumulate in blood and tissues and disrupt cellular function.
Exposure to certain heavy metals can occur through water, food, air, or occupational environments. Once in the body, these elements circulate in the bloodstream and deposit in tissues. Unlike many compounds, metals do not readily break down. Over time, accumulation interferes with enzyme function, increases oxidative stress, impairs mitochondrial energy production and alters immune signaling.
Heavy Metals
+ Lead
Lead exposure most commonly occurs through contaminated drinking water, aging infrastructure such as lead pipes, and older paint or dust in buildings. Elevated levels have been associated with neurologic dysfunction, cardiovascular strain, kidney impairment and developmental effects in children.
+ Mercury
Mercury exposure occurs primarily through seafood consumption, dental amalgam fillings and industrial emissions. It accumulates in the brain, kidneys and nervous system. Chronic exposure has been linked to neurological impairment, cognitive decline, immune dysregulation and cardiovascular risk.
