The Impact of Heavy Metals on Health
Heavy metals such as mercury, lead, cadmium, and arsenic can accumulate in our tissues, cross the blood-brain barrier, and affect various systems in our body, including the heart, digestive system, neurons, and red blood cells. They can also lead to hair loss, increased free radicals, and oxidative damage. Additionally, heavy metals can block the body's natural detoxification enzymes and endogenous antioxidants.
