Environmental Toxins / Heavy Metals Heavy metal toxicity or poisoning arises when the body accumulates an excessive amount of a heavy metal, such as mercury, lead, arsenic, cadmium, aluminium or nickel which places the individual at risk for serious illness. These heavy metals play no known biological role in the human body, unlike with some elements such as selenium, which is an effective antioxidant, iron, which is required by blood cells, and copper, which is an integral part of many enzymes. Since they are not useful to the organism, and because the body has storage sites for them, these heavy metals can accumulate in tissues over time and cause serious health problems. Toxicity from mercury, in common with the other heavy metals, arises from environmental contamination and also from some unexpected sources as we shall see below. With mercury, it is the nature of the environmental sources that are particularly worrying in the context of nutrition.

Vitamin Deficiency Vitamins are essential for normal cellular function and health. Having a deficiency in any of the individual vitamins can give rise to disease and any of a number of complaints. Overt vitamin deficiency means that the body vitamin status is too low to maintain proper health, but just sufficient to prevent classic clinical symptoms of deficiency. Having a blood test is the definitive way of picking up vitamin deficiencies and checking body status of vitamins. Deficiencies can go unnoticed for many years until illness develops. Sub-clinical and frank deficiciency can arise either from inadequate intake, abnormal metabolism, excessive excretion or because of an underlying disease process. It can also arise because of imbalance in other vitamins or minerals since these nutrients interact with each other. Regardless of how they arise, if allowed to go unnoticed then your health becomes compromised.
