I wish I was exaggerating, but we are all poisoned to some degree or another. We are ALL poisoned. Toxins are everywhere. They are in our food; in our water; in our air; they're in our lawns, on our golf courses - and they cause serious brain damage. That's the bad news. And in a moment I'm going to give you the good news: That if you can reduce your exposure and if you can boost your body's own waste disposal system - you can heal your brain.

But first I want to share with you the seriousness of this problem. The government, the Center for Disease Control, found 148 chemicals in the average adult. There's been over 80,000 chemicals released into our environment in the last 100 years. There are 6-million pounds of mercury released from coal and cement factories every year. That's something that's toxic in parts-per-million. There are 2.5-Billion pounds of toxic chemicals released every year into the environment. And what's most frightening to me, is that this is affecting our children. Fifteen percent of US women have toxic levels of mercury in their blood, resulting in 600,000 new babies being born with toxic mercury in their blood. We literally eat pounds of hormones, antibiotics, food additives, chemicals, artificial sweeteners, MSG... we eat gallons of neurotoxic pesticides and we wonder why we're not all doing ok. It's amazing! These toxic pesticides work by poisoning the nervous systems of bugs. That's what they're designed to do. We consume 3,500 industrial chemicals that are added to our food supply in processed foods. And 3,000 toxins are in our homes. What can we do? We can reduce our own toxic exposures. And you can boost your own detoxification system...
