Toxins Unveiled: The Hidden Enemy in Our Diabetes Battle with Dr. Paul Savage

Is the rise in diabetes rates linked to more than diet and exercise?

In our latest episode, we're joined by Dr. Paul Savage, an expert in environmental medicine, to delve into this. Dr. Savage discusses the alarming role of environmental toxins, like glyphosate, in escalating chronic diseases, especially among the young.

We examine the impact of daily exposure to these toxins on our metabolism. Dr. Savage presents eye-opening findings from a recent six-year study, highlighting the increasing levels of toxins in our bodies. He points out the top five environmental contaminants in the Chicago area, emphasizing that detoxification involves a broad spectrum of toxic exposure.

Our conversation shifts to innovative treatments, focusing on the success of therapeutic plasma exchange in removing heavy metals. This method, likened to an "oil change" for the body, has shown remarkable results in a patient suffering from long-term heavy metal toxicity, significantly reducing their toxic load and inflammation.

Join us to explore these insights and discuss actionable steps towards a less toxic, healthier future. This episode isn't just a talk; it's a call to action for all of us.
