DIY Nutritional + Other Protections You Can Use At-Home Against Toxins and EMFs

In Answer to a Request for a Focus on Detoxing: A Repost of the Second Half of Health Alarm Part 2; with an Introduction for New Readers.

In response to a request for people who just want to focus specifically on self-care detoxing, I am reposting the second half of Health Alarm Part 2.

Introduction for New Readers

My primary focus is on protecting against 1) heavy metals, 2) toxins in injected medical and dental products, 3) EMF sensitivity, 4) excitation of some toxins by ever growing use and power of EMFs, and 5) air and water pollution. However, much of what follows will also help fight infections and help detox the spike protein.

For context, the title of the original post is “Health Alarm Part 2. Nanoparticles in C19 Vaxxes, Air, Food, and Water Threaten/Damage Our Blood (Separately from Spike Protein) + Dr Ana's Effective IV EDTA Detox; DIY Nutritional + Other Protections.”

DIY Nutritional Protections You Can Use At-Home Now

My nutritional strategy is to maximize the body’s ability to neuter and remove heavy metals, graphene, and the various other nanoparticles to which we are exposed from medical and dental injections before they can begin to assemble in the blood. It is based on my 50+ years of learning nutrition, begun with Linus Pauling’s advice on vitamin C in about 1972, to cope with all the damage that the Swine Flu Shot of 1976 did to me—and keeps doing.

Four caveats:

• Once blood has been extensively damaged, Dr. Ana Mihalcea MD PhD has found that intravenous EDTA chelation plus nutritional support are needed to clear the damage (a huge boon, if you can get it done right.)

• People are different. Some nutrients may not be tolerated in the amounts suggested, or are needed in higher amounts than suggested. Become, if you aren’t already, the world’s greatest expert on yourself, evaluating everything through the “prism” of your own experience. It’s a trial and error process, guided by intelligence and self reliance. Know and take charge of yourself.

• The capsule, other ingredients, or source of the nutritional supplement can cause problems while other brands do not.

• I focus mostly on supplements here because I am looking for big effects, but they are built on a foundation of eating primarily “nutrient-dense” foods. That is too big an area for this post, so I’ll just give a few preferences:

  • Whole foods (preferably organic). Grains should definitely be organic to avoid the glyphosate/Roundup pesticide. (see Probiotics, below.)

  • Grass-fed/pasture-raised meats, dairy, eggs—with the fats that come naturally with them. This supplies nutrients that are very hard to get in vegan diets. Also, use real butter on cooked vegetables (or olive oil on salads), as many vegetable nutrients can be absorbed only with fats or oils, and they are satisfying.

  • Unprocessed fruits and vegetables, the fresher the better. Fruit juice lacks many nutrients present in whole fruit.

  • I am agnostic on fish because of pollution issues. I do look for wild-caught seafood because of how farmed fish are fed and treated with antibiotics and other chemicals.

  • Diet relatively low in carbohydrates. If you have blood-sugar issues, avoid eating a lot of refined carbs (sugar, white flour) at one time; this stabilizes insulin and blood sugar (even better, avoid refined carbs whenever possible). High insulin blood levels, especially when they produce low blood sugar, can be very harmful. Small snacks, such as half an apple plus some almonds to stave off hunger, are ok. This helps too with weight management and diabetes—or avoiding it. (Low Blood Sugar and You, Carlton Fredericks, 1969)

Detoxing

No one is going to do all of the following, so I’ve listed them in descending order of estimated importance. For fuller explanations of individual nutrients, I have added annotations to show you where to look. (*1) refers to my post on natural anti-infectives; (*2) refers to recovering from C19, C19 vaxxes. You may also like to look at my post showing how zinc plus zinc ionophores significantly weaken many viral infections including corona viruses, influenza, and polio.

1) NAC: 3,000 mg. spread throughout the day (NAC is a stabilized form of the sulfur-containing amino acid cysteine, found predominately in animal-sourced protein). (*1, *2)

• NAC itself attaches to heavy metals so they can be excreted (source: Jerry Hickey, InviteHealth podcast 586 and prior radio broadcasts; other sources too). (Good for lung issues too.)

• It is the rate-limiting factor the body needs to create the glutathione the liver needs to detox poisons.

• NAC also reduces—the reverse of oxidation— graphene oxide and adheres to the surface of reduced GO, leading to GO’s removal from the body. Thus it "avoids GO-mediated oxidation of glutathione" (PubMed, an NIH (U.S.) database, 2019).

• Selenium: 200 mcg (micrograms) to 300 mcg. daily to aid in the above; especially because soils and plants may be depleted in selenium. Also helpful: 200 mg. to 300 mg. alpha lipoic acid (an antioxidant that is both water and fat soluble).

• (Also needed to make glutathione but more likely to be present in good diets: the amino acid glutamine, and vitamins B6 and B2)

• I like NOW brand NAC because its 600 mg. of NAC also has modest amounts of selenium and molybdenum (another detox-aiding mineral), and the capsule is not large.

1a) Glutathione supplements are also available. Ideally they should be taken one hour before eating or two hours after eating. I look at Jarrow, brands featuring Setria glutathione, and, when special need arises, Bio-Chemical GSH’s Bio Ophthalmic Antiox for its nitrogen-filled blister pack to protect against oxidation—a method developed by Harry Demopoulos in the 1990s (best price for GSH from them, but too pricey otherwise).

1b) NADH is an antioxidant that recycles many other anti-oxidants, including glutathione. Then the body uses its oxidized form, NAD+, in creating energy, after which NADH is reproduced. (*2). I use Swanson’s 20 mg. lozenge. I break it into halves or quarters to average 5 mg. daily, to cut the cost.

2) Maximize vitamin C, in divided doses (needs vary between people and at different times in the same person), up to 12 grams daily (12,000 mg.) or more if tolerated by bowels. Several sources, including Adele Davis and Dr. Ana, say that vitamin C can detoxify various toxins (especially oxidants, aka free radicals, including some heavy metals). And it’s great for fighting infections if enough is started soon enough. Add citrus pulp or bioflavonoid supplements (“vitamin P,” for “pulp”) too; they reportedly recycle oxidized vitamin C into the antioxidant form. (*1) When British sailors began eating limes to ward off scurvy, they ate all the edible flesh, not just the juice.

• If you have been warned to keep vitamin C to a minimum because of issues with kidney stones and/or oxalates, read on. Otherwise, you can jump to the next item (on vitamin B6).

  Reading two-time Nobel Laureate Linus Pauling, Adele Davis, Dr. Robert Atkins, this post from Beyond MTHFR, and podcast 44 at InviteHealth by Jerry Hickey, I can report that:

  • Vitamin C is not associated with a higher incidence of kidney stones in general (Pauling). It turns out that some kidney stones get dissolved in acidic urine, which vitamin C produces. (Vitamin C’s acidity also protects against urinary yeast infections).

  • Kidney stones composed of calcium oxalate dissolve in alkaline urine, not in acidic urine such as produced by vitamin C, so I’ll list here plenty of measures to guard against them without stinting on vitamin C, if you know oxalates or calcium oxalate kidney stones are your problem:

    • Sodium ascorbate is not acidic (neutral; pH = 7) and doesn’t make the urine acidic (Pauling), but a lot of it may be too much sodium. However, magnesium ascorbate is not acidic. Supplements of Mg Ascorbate give you both V.C. and highly valuable magnesium, which is often deficient in diets. Other forms of buffered vitamin C exist if Mg Ascorbate upsets your digestive tract.

    • The World Council for Health publishes a spike protein detox guide with a recommendation for vitamin C that produces much less acid, or no acid at all, in the blood and urine: “6-12g daily (divided evenly between sodium ascorbate (several grams), liposomal vitamin C (3-6g) & ascorbyl palmitate (1 – 3g).” Pricey but interesting.

      • After the first two items in the WCH guide, ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine (medical drugs needing prescriptions), it presents a very long list of nutritional items that, to my mind, doesn’t indicate which may be more important than others, though vitamin C is listed third. The FLCCC also publishes lists for dealing with Covid issues. My list here is focused much more on detoxifying quantum-dot heavy metals and other nanoparticles in medical injections, and on environmental pollutants, but you will see that much of what I recommend goes to detoxing the spike protein too.

    • Magnesium and potassium alkalize the blood so the body doesn't pull calcium out of bones and put it into blood to alkalize it. This reduces the chances of calcium combining with oxalates. (Hickey)

    • Avoid foods that are high in oxalates, especially spinach, Swiss chard, and beet greens.

    • “Greens” otherwise are alkalizing (see green powders, below). They have potassium and magnesium in them.

    • Vitamin B6, when combined with magnesium, “cuts down on the formation of calcium oxalate” (Dr. Atkins’ Vita-nutrient Solution, p. 65, no dosage mentioned, but see below on B6).

    • Drinking adequate water dilutes the calcium. It can cut risk by 50% compared to dehydration or just not drinking enough water. (Hickey)

    • Avoid overloading with sodium (especially from highly processed foods, which are bad for other reasons too). Sodium binds to calcium and increases concentrations that can combine with oxalates. (Hickey)

    • But salting foods on your plate is perfectly ok. Indeed, to start digestion, the stomach makes hydrochloric acid from the chlorine in salt—sodium chloride. (This is generally known, but pointed out by the Weston A. Price Foundation, which advises using unrefined salt. Also by WAPF: a more extensive discussion on salt)

    • Don’t stint on calcium. Low calcium can lead to kidney stones too. (Hickey)

    • Adequate vitamin K2 prevents high blood levels of vitamin D3 from depositing calcium where it shouldn’t go. (Well known but not widely known).

    • Raise intake of sulfates, via food and supplements (e.g. glucosamine sulfate, chondroitin sulfate, good for joints too, but are from shell-fish shells; see Epsom salts below) (source: above-listed post)

    • But the pesticide glyphosate (see probiotics below) interferes with the body’s use of sulfates. (Weston A. Price Foundation).

    • Last but maybe not least, this study of May 9, 2023, found that among 50,789 people who took NAC or have kidney stones, none of the people taking NAC reported getting kidney stones.

3) Vitamin B6 is vital in adequate amounts, which for some people might be as high as 5 mg. or higher per kilogram of body weight per day (in divided doses) (source, Beyond MTHFR cited above). For example, that’s 350 mg. of B6 for a 70 kg person (154 lb.).

• Dr. Atkins wrote that at those high doses, to avoid known neurological problems, the B6 should be accompanied by magnesium and equal amounts of the other Bs in the B-Complex; again, in divided doses. He also wrote that over 500 mg. of B6 without the rest of the Bs and magnesium, neurological problems—tingling or numbness in arms or legs—could result, but that problem can be fixed without permanent harm by lowering B6 and adding B-complex and magnesium.

• Atkins’ recommended doses were 50 mg. B6 for people in good health; 100mg. to 400 mg. for therapeutic purposes, with 20% in the methylated form (see below).

• For about 36 years, I found that 300 to 500 mg. B6, divided into two or three doses worked wonders for me in several ways: great increase in energy, end of indigestion from nuts and oils; end of eye pain and needing to shut my eyes in bright sunlight (cued from reading Adele Davis). I also took about 200 mg. of the other Bs, which included folic acid; had no neurological problems. Methylated B6 may be necessary (see below). My combination changed about 4 years ago when I switched to methylated Bs: much more of methylated B12 and methylated folate (5-MTHF); less of the other Bs, due to what was available; still, no neurological problems.

4) Zinc helps produce glutathione, which helps degrade graphene oxide (another good piece from La Quinta Columna, July 14, 2021) Zinc also competes with—and helps shut out—heavy metals for attachment sites. And it activates and helps protect the macrophages and other first-line blood cells that eat or otherwise destroy foreign matter, including viruses. (*1)

5) Probiotics are “good bacteria” in our GI tract that unleash and produce a lot of nutrients we get from food. They fight off bad bacteria that weaken or sicken us. They migrate to other parts of the body from the GI tract and do good work there. (*1, *2)

• Taking antibiotics weakens or kills good bacteria. Many food additives and other pollutants also hurt probiotics—especially the pesticide glyphosate, which is sprayed on Roundup-Ready GMO crops, AND is sprayed on other crops to dry them out to lower the cost of harvesting them, which includes "Non-GMO" but nonorganic grains.

• Fermented foods reintroduce good bacteria. Probiotic supplements also exist, though one should read the label to see how much is promised to be active through the "best by" date. I alternate InviteHealth's Probiotic Hx with California Gold's LactoBif 30 (from iHerb). I also eat organic, whole-milk yogurt, organic sauerkraut, and organic kimchi. (Helps with lactose intolerance too.)

6) Methylated B vitamins: (B2), B6, B12, Activated Folate (5-MTHF in supplements, not Folic acid). Some people can’t assimilate the synthetic forms of these vitamins found in most supplements. Read about MTHFR. Such people need the methylated form.

• Enough activated folate (5-MTHF) is necessary for the liver to detoxify heavy metals, by facilitating methylation. The other methylated Bs are part of it too.

• Using Life Extension’s “Homocysteine Resist,” with its 8500 mcg of 5-MTHF (very high, but LE has research on it), I cut my homocysteine in half when 5000 mcg or more of folic acid did not, and much lower amounts of 5-MTHF did not. (FLCCC’s Webinar of June 7, 2023, explains pathways of neurological complications of people who need 5-MTHF, about 30 minutes into it. Good for them for continuing to move more into nutrition, cued by Dr. Keith Berkowitz, who previously worked with Dr. Robert Atkins.)

• Several brands offer methylated Bs in basic amounts as part of their B-complex vitamins.

• Note: Some people may need the body-ready form of B2 called “riboflavin 5-phosphate.” Separate supplements of R5P, and other methylated B-complex supplements containing R5P, can be found.

7) Milk thistle is often noted as helping the liver detoxify; helps the kidneys, which are detoxifiers too, if memory serves.

8) Curcumin and related compounds, which are extracts of turmeric, reportedly chelate (attach and remove) heavy metals. I use Life Extension’s Curcumin Elite..

9) Nanoparticle Zeolite: Zeolite adsorbs toxic minerals and other toxins.

• Karen Kingston of The Kingston Report says that Pure Body Extra, a nanoparticle zeolite immersed in water helped her. It is sprayed into your mouth and tastes like water to me.

• The product’s literature says it is absorbed into your blood and doesn’t go into your GI tract. A person with the maker, Touchstone Essentials, with whom I spoke, said it is absorbed immediately in the mouth and throat, because it is nano-sized. Product literature says, additionally, it replaces toxic minerals with healthful minerals; and it doesn’t absorb healthful minerals from “whole foods.”

• Interesting, convenient, quick and easy, but pricey (> $2 per day). Karen Kingston provides a link to learn about and, if interested, buy it.

10) Vitamin B1 (50 mg. to 100 mg., rarely more than 300 mg.) helps decrease lead accumulation (and, I presume, possibly some other heavy metals), either lowering the total or slowing the increase, according to Dr. Robert Atkins in Dr. Atkins’ Vitanutrient Solution, 1998, page 56. Best to get as part of B-complex.

Blood Flow

The synthetic clots narrow blood vessels, so nutrients to help blood flow generally ought to be beneficial—and worthy for everyone for obvious reasons. Here are some of them:

1) Niacin (itself an essential starter for NAD, as is niacinamide) helps promote normal, bodily produced heparin, which gives red blood cells a negative charge that keeps them in line to pass through (tiny) capillaries. (Niacinamide does not) (source: Carlton Fredericks)

• As Rouleaux clumping of red blood cells also is seen in contaminated blood, logic says niacin might help alleviate that. I’m not sure if it can help however if red blood cells have been so sickened that they have turned to sludge, and the victim feels very sick. (Again, people who died suddenly, especially athletes in action, obviously did not feel sick before they died; then niacin might work well.)

• Niacin itself (but not niacinamide) often produces a brief, uncomfortable flush somewhere at or above 25 mg. (caused by release of histamine from mast cells). “Flush free” niacin is a compound of niacin and inositol (inositol hexanicotinate, or IHN) that releases the niacin slowly enough to avoid the flush.

2) Grape seed extract reportedly helps clear blood vessels of atherosclerotic plaque (Jerry Hickey of InviteHealth).

3) Phosphatidylserine (PS) is necessary to enable HDL cholesterol to clear atherosclerotic plaque, by scavenging/recycling LDL (Jerry Hickey).

4) Nitric oxide (NO), mentioned by Dr. Ana, is necessary for blood vessels to relax—i.e., open up—and lower blood pressure. Beets are good sources, as are some other foods. I use Neo 40, a lozenge, and Superbeets, a powder; both from HumanN.

5) Nattokinase is a fibrinolytic enzyme derived from bacterially fermented soybeans. It reportedly breaks down blood clots caused by red blood cells, or at least helps prevent them from forming or growing (which also means it does not dissolve the synthetic clots).

• I’d caution that nattokinase is in effect something of a “blood thinner,” and, like herbal products, can have multiple effects, some of which might be problematic.

• I’d also caution that non-organic soybeans are very likely to be GMO and loaded with glyphosate.

Numerous other supplements reportedly work against heavy metals, heavy-metal poisoning, and the oxidative/free-radical damage they cause:

• “Green” powders provide great antioxidant and other nutritional protection; e.g. wheat grass, barley grass, spirulina, and chlorella. (I can’t “stomach” such green powders.) Eating lots of green foods works too. Dr. Atkins wrote that chlorophyll is needed in any body detoxification and helps eliminate uranium and cadmium (p. 241, Dr. Atkins, VitaNutrient Solution).

• Epsom salt baths are said to provide sulfates the body absorbs through the skin that help in the detoxification process. Additionally, magnesium is also absorbed and goes to work quickly. It is involved in over 300 different bodily processes. Further, diets may well be deficient in it. (*1)

• Earthy substances are said to attach to heavy metals. These include activated carbon, edible clays, ordinary (non-nano) zeolite, and complexes (mentioned by Dr. Ana) involving Humic acid and Fulvic acid.

  • I am unsure how this group should be used. Edible ones are meant to be swallowed. Do they just act in the digestive tract? Since some of them attach inseparably to nutrients, should they be taken only on empty stomachs? Does their presence in the GI tract connect to blood so that they purify blood?

  • If you have experience with these substances, we would all appreciate your comments on using them.

Miscellany

• Drink lots of water. It dilutes toxins and helps the kidneys flush them out of the system. The old saw is drink 8 cups of water each day (preferably purified by good filters—see below).

• Vitamin D3: Adequate amounts, higher than RDAs, plus vitamin K2 and magnesium, do a lot of good. (*1) Aim for a blood test of 50 to 60.

• Vitamin E, all eight forms (four tocopherols, four tocotrienols), an important, fat-soluble antioxidant active in the general antioxidant, detoxifying process.

• Vendors: I get supplements from SwansonVitamins, iHerb, Vitacost, InviteHealth, and, rarely, Amazon. If you create accounts, you will periodically get sale discounts of 15% to 30%, depending; though iHerb and Vitacost often offer deals on their websites without sending out email notices of them.

Other Protective Measures

Reducing EMF Exposure

• I bought an EMF meter from SafeLivingTechnologies.com. It was recommended by Tess Lawrie, a leader of the World Council for Health. (Dr. Lawrie and the WCH each has a Substack.)

• Obvious but hard to achieve: Avoid using 5G if you can. Turn off Wifi when you can. Use cables to connect your computer to the modem, bypassing Wifi, when feasible. Spend less time with mobile phones generally and turn them off when you can; they communicate with towers even when on but not in use.

• Shields to reduce EMFs from Wifi routers: Some are metal cages. I chose a flexible fabric version available from Amazon labeled “WiFi Cover EMF Protection WiFi Router Cover Radiation Shielding WiFi Guard Emf Faraday Cage for Router 13.8IN 15.7IN.” It reduced the router’s strength by about 10 decibels (a factor of ten). A second one reduced the EMFs again by about another 10 decibels (a total factor of 100 or a bit less); still had good Wifi use.

• Simple, cheap aluminum foil, which is a good electrical conductor, can effectively block identifiable EMF hotspots, though an EMF meter should be used to find if the unwanted EMFs are migrating around the foil, in the same way that light waves (shorter-wave-length EMFs) diffuse into shaded or unlit areas.

• Products are marketed that ground you, shunting EMF energy away and providing negative charges, which act as antioxidants, they say. Other products offer silver infused fabrics to partially shield you from EMFs, with clothing, bedding, foot mats, and mobile phones. The silver infused pillow cases I bought reduced EMFs by a factor of maybe five.

• EMFRocks.com claims to change the waveform of EMF radiation from polarized to unpolarized. Here is a report from Nature explaining how natural EMFs are safer: “polarization seems to be a trigger that significantly increases the probability for the initiation of biological/health effects”. Here is an interviewabout EMF Rocks from The Weston A. Price Foundation.

Cleaning the Air You Breath

Because of my location and my great sensitivity to airborne pollens, mold spores, and pollution, I need high-powered air filtration at an acceptable noise level, a standard that fits well with cleaning the air of the toxic nanosized and larger particles mentioned above.

I found one machine that met my standards: the Winix 5500-2 (currently using two; big room, lots of pollution). (The 5300-2 is the same basic machine with slight differences; slightly cheaper; acceptable too. I use the 5300-2’s HEPA and carbon-impregnated fiber filters in the 5500-2 to extend the life of the HEPA.)

They worked very well when hazardous levels of smoke from Quebec’s wildfires blanketed New York and produced dark yellow daylight.

The 5500-2 is inexpensive as these machines go ($145, Amazon), has “true HEPA” filtration (see below), is rated for a “large” room, and gets the only 4/5 rating on noise at top speed (turbo) by Consumer Reports (where 5/5 is best, and all the others were 3/5 or lower). The sound on turbo might be described as “white noise.”

Two drawbacks of the Winix, which don’t matter to me because I run my 5500-2s on turbo much of the time, are:

• Its second highest fan speed, while very quiet, has good but modest air-flow throughput. It’s probably good enough for a small to medium-sized room, or for a large room that has little exposure to outdoor and indoor allergens and pollution. Its air flow at the second highest fan speed is less than the second highest fan speed of the Honeywell HPA300 (with a noticeable but acceptable hum) that I previously used, but much stronger air flow than a Blueair 311 I tried (and returned), both of which were much louder on turbo.

  • Air pollution settles and concentrates near the ground as cold air sinks overnight. I’d advise to run the air purifier at the highest tolerable speed overnight if you have exposure to polluted air.

• It has bright lights on all but the night setting, which has very low air flow. I cover the lights by folding dark paper over them and tucking a fold into the convenient handle in the back.

  • If that’s a deal breaker for you, and you don’t expect to run the HPA300 ($212 Amazon) at turbo, it would do nicely. It has the second lowest price in Consumer Reports’ ratings for the high capacity you would be getting, which is a greater air-flow at each fan speed than the 5500-2.

General Considera,tions

“True HEPA” filters (that would be an H13 rating) catch airborne particles as small as 0.3 microns at about 99.95% efficiency. That’s 300 nanometers, small enough to take out larger “nanoparticles” and airborne microfibers. Wikipedia adds that filtration efficiency increases for particles both less than and greater than 0.3 microns. I’m not sure about that, but certainly some particles less than 300 nanometers would be caught. Also, toxic metals are found in ordinary soot, such as PM 2.5 (less than or equal to 2.5 microns, aka 2500 nanometers) and larger particles, almost all of which are definitely filtered out. “HEPA-type” and similar names are not regulated and do not filter particles as small as true HEPA.

From my experience, the sound level of an air purifier quoted by manufactures and in web reviews is the low-fan setting. The CADR (clean air delivery rate) cited, however, is the turbo setting, which is meant to be run only briefly to quickly clear bad air, and can be very loud, going by Consume Reports’ ratings.

I’d advise that you be sure you can return any air purifier you buy.

Third-party suppliers offering “true HEPA” filters are much cheaper than OEMs. Are they truly “true HEPA”? I don’t know, but the ones I have used (for the Winix and the HPA300) catch a lot of stuff that passes through the carbon-infused prefilters, which catch a lot themselves. Also, the third-party, true HEPAs I use seem to last as long as the OEMs and clean as well as OEMs (judging by how I feel).

Some “true HEPA” third-party replacement filter brands I have tried have come with an unacceptably strong chemical odor. So check to see if you can return the product. I haven’t had any chemical odor with the filters from Winix and Honeywell, but I bought only a few HEPAs before switching to third-party replacements because of the cheaper prices.

Purifying Drinking Water

I pour tap water first into Brita’s pitcher with its higher-end, Elite filter to remove particles down to 1 micron or less (according to Brita’s claims). Then I pour that water through a ZERO 5-stage water pitcher because ZERO claims its filter removes all dissolved solids and removes 97% to 99% of many toxic metals and substances, plus it is certified to reduce the “forever chemicals” PFAS. (Note that ZERO filters out fluoride. Research that I find credible says that while fluoride toothpaste helps with cavities, fluoridated water does not.)

To prevent BPAs and its equally bad “no-BPA” substitutes from leaching into the water in the ZERO pitcher (I don’t know if that happens), I pour that water into a glass bottle. (I am told by Dr. Anthony Jay, via the Weston A. Price Foundation, that any filter using activated charcoal, which most do, will filter out BPAs, its substitutes, and phthalates.)

Sweating

Sweating excretes toxins. Maybe just good exercise would produce some of that, or getting hot in hot weather. Various saunas tout benefits.

The Short, Relatively Low-Cost, Simplified List

• NAC: 5 x NOW Brand daily in divided doses

• Vitamin C in divided doses, as much as is tolerable

• NADH 1/4 of Swanson’s 20 mg. lozenge daily

• B-complex or methylated B-complex

• Zinc picolinate 50 mg.

• Vitamin D3 + vitamin K2

• California Gold's LactoBif 30 (from iHerb)

• Winix 5500-2 or 5300-2

• Zero Pitcher Water Filter preceded by high-end Brita Pitcher Water Filter (Faucet and whole-home water filters are beyond my experience.)

Addendum: Rain Cloud Seeding And Geoengineering

The term “geoengineering” is used—infrequently—by Establishment sources to refer to the decades-old practice of seeding clouds with silver iodide (AgI) to produce rain.

Numerous Establishment studies present arguments and evidence that, although silver iodide can be toxic in high concentrations, this use of silver iodide is very safe for humans because the volumes people experience are very low and not bioavailable.

Mainstream critics of cloud seeding do exist. They are concerned not with toxic effects however but only with such harms as “stealing” rain from other places and damaging the upper atmosphere.

The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is not so sanguine about silver iodide:

Some studies suggest that the amount of chemicals used is small and the silver iodide is not biochemically available, rendering it ecologically harmless. However, other studies highlight the potential harms from bioaccumulation, particularly for aquatic life. They show that while overall levels of silver iodide are relatively low, they have exceeded health standards in areas with repeated exposure [emphasis added].

This study published in PubMed expresses the same concern about accumulated AgI where it is repeatedly applied:

These results suggest that AgI from cloud seeding may moderately affect biota living in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems if cloud seeding is repeatedly applied in a specific area and large amounts of seeding materials accumulate in the environment.

A Wall Street Journal article (Sat/Sun, June 11-12, 2023, pg. 7 print edition) reports that cloud seeding in the Western U.S. has skyrocketed.

What could go wrong? Especially if toxic metals and graphene are being sprayed surreptitiously in the guise of cloud seeding? How would we even know? As to that:

Recently, talk has emerged prominently of a different kind of geoengineering: spraying opaque materials high up in the atmosphere to block some of the sun’s rays and cool the Earth—in the name of fighting "climate change."

For example, Dr. Joseph Mercola posted (July 18, 2023) a video of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. interviewing Dane Wigington (of GeoengineeringWatch.org). It presents eyeopening photos and claims that up to 40 million tons of opaque stuff, including highly toxic aluminum and polymer fibers, are being sprayed into the atmosphere each year. RFK Jr. pushes back when he disagrees, but my takeaway is that he most definitely affirmed that he too had seen such sprayings, which are often called “chemtrails,” not the usual exhaust we sometimes see, called “contrails,” emanating from commercial jetliners, that disappear in minutes..

I haven’t seen any chemtrails, which last for many hours, but I have read a lot of reports of them, and of people reporting them saying they felt sick afterwards. RFK Jr.’s confirmation of them is, in my opinion, a clincher. That’s all the more reason for needing daily detoxing.

(FYI, if Dr. Mercola’s paywall is a hindrance, RFK Jr.’s podcasts are also available through podcast channels.)
