Should you check your environment for toxic lead?
As you are probably aware, lead is one of the most potent toxins, even at very low dosages, that are known to man. There is no safe level. Our environment has been thoroughly contaminated with lead and sometimes in some of the most unsuspecting places, like children's toys. This is so much the fact that I think it is very important for everyone, including children, to have a blood test for lead done annually to see if you have a source of lead contamination that you are not aware of. Lead causes all manner of pathology in the body including lowered IQ, hyperactivity, learning disorders, high blood pressure, anemia, kidney failure, heart failure, chronic fatigue, sleep disorders and possibly even cancer.
But how is one to know if there are sources of lead in one's environment? I recently ran across some test kits that can, with a simple swab (at a cost of a little over $2) detect lead at a low level from the surface of an object or from a liquid (like a hair dye product). We have no affiliation with this company, but for more information on this go to:

Since the contamination level of heavy metals like lead is so prevalent, we do suggest that people be on a continuous prevention program of detoxification.
This would include BodyHealth Complete + Detox- to supply all the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and herbal liver support for detoxification, as well as Body Detox, a dietary supplement to help in the removal of chemical and heavy metal residues. I don't think that this is simply a good idea. I think it is something that is mandatory for maintaining good health. The incidence of chronic fatigue and Alzheimers, hypertension, and cancer rates are soaring. In many people there are environmental toxins that are associated with these conditions. We feel that paying attention to your toxic load is an essential part of preventive health. You can read much more about prevention of toxin accumulation and what to do about it at
