Last Updated on January 7, 2021

In order to help limit your exposure, make sure to minimize eating out at restaurants, as they’re required to use stainless steel vats and pots. And at home, use cookware made of glass, carbon steel, cast iron, titanium, and enamel.

Remember to avoid stainless steel thermoses and keep in mind that non-stick and aluminum cookware are well known for their toxic dangers, and stainless steel can expose you to carcinogenic risks. Always choose glass!

#4 – Difficulty Breathing

Heavy metal poisoning can cause great damage to your respiratory system. Difficulty breathing is particularly linked to mercury poisoning, so pay close attention regarding mercury levels at your local fish advisories and check for any heavy metals listed on the labels of products you consume.

Try to avoid Smoking, exposure to second-hand smoke, and using conventional household cleaning products as well as conventional herbicides and insecticides. And be extremely cautious when using the ‘natural’ alternative boric acid (Borax), which can cause severe health problems or even death.

#5 – Skin Problems

Skin problems, including rashes, can easily emerge due to heavy metal poisoning in your body. In fact, skin disorders occur when the toxins start to penetrate the skin. You should avoid wearing costume jewelry if you’re sensitive to metals. Also, try to remove and avoid dental amalgam fillings and stainless steel orthodontics like palate wideners and braces.

#6 – Abdominal Pain & Cramping

Abdominal pain and cramping can be symptoms of toxic heavy metals poisoning. Once heavy metals build up inside your body, they start damaging several body parts, including reproductive organs in both men and women. Common female reproductive problems include infertility, miscarriage, and menstrual issues.

#7 – Confusion

Heavy metal toxicity can have a negative impact on your brain that shows up in the form of memory loss and confusion. There also other neurological symptoms related to heavy metals exposure, including convulsions, irritability, headaches, and coma.

Nutrient deficiencies can be dangerous because your body replaces the needed elements with heavy metals, for instance, zinc is replaced by cadmium, which builds up in your kidneys. Cadmium overload is linked to peripheral neuropathy.
