Yep I have metals too. I did a hair test for that (?) and it showed elevated mercury. I dont even have fillings so go figure. Im low in Selenium, zinc, all the kown antagonizers. Again, go figure. :)
You are right about metals creating an environment, not only does it lower immune system, they thrive. Like with solvents.
But again, the liver should detox this stuff? And it needs tools to do that. I lack all the tools necessary for my body to heal and kick out stuff.
And it goes round and round, right? :)
