We are on the right track when we emphasize toxins including heavy metals but this front page story on May 12 in USA Today will help educate your patients about the need for ongoing life long detoxification efforts!
Notice how quickly the agencies that may have to pay for the care for these exposed military personnel are to deny this link to impaired health that is becoming epidemic. Remember last month’s front cover of Discover magazine announced that 1400 tons of mercury are coming to us from China.
There is a common thread here; we are all toxic unless we take steps every day like oral chelation, zeolite, fiber, high dose ascorbic acid etc. We will sooner or later have degenerative diseases that are clearly triggered by these toxic exposures we all face daily.

Navy researcher links toxins in war-zone dust to ailmentsBy Kelly Kennedy, USA TODAY
U.S. troops in Iraq, Afghanistan and Kuwait have inhaled microscopic dust particles laden with toxic metals, bacteria and fungi — a toxic stew that may explain everything from the undiagnosed Gulf War Syndrome symptoms lingering from the 1991 war against Iraq to high rates of respiratory, neurological and heart ailments encountered in the current wars, scientists say.
“From my research and that of others, I really think this may be the smoking gun,” says Navy Capt. Mark Lyles, chair of medical sciences and biotechnology at the Center for Naval Warfare Studies at the Naval War College in Newport, R.I. “It fits everything — symptoms, timing, everything.”
