How to Detox Uranium

Uranium is a common heavy metal on the HTMA

Uranium is a naturally occurring element but it has the potential to be toxic. I just wanted to make a short post as a reference for those that have noticed high uranium levels on their HTMA.

Sources of Uranium:

Uranium is very high in granite deposit- so those that mine granite or live near a granite mine are at risk for high exposure
Food grown in soil that is high in uranium (again, this would be from farms close to granite mines)
Water (usually from fertilizer runoff!)
Factories that use a form of uranium for the production of aircraft parts, plating, and munitions
Uranium also tends to go hand in hand with radon gas– if you have very high uranium you should check your home for radon!

States highest in Uranium:

California- a majority of the tests that I see with high Uranium are from those in California
New Hampshire
New Mexico
Conneticut
Kansas
Colorado

Health effects of Uranium:

The most common side effect of excess uranium is decreased kidney function. Uranium can build up in the bones, liver and kidneys

What to do about High Uranium?

Strengthen the kidneys
Support the liver
Dry Skin Brush!
Mineral Balance– metals take the place of minerals when we are depleted. Replacing the minerals will help excrete the metals. But the above 3 steps are crucial as well to keep the detox system working properly.
