Two Health Problems That May Be The Underlying Causes To Many of Today's Chronic or Degenerative Diseases

In my research recently on autism, ADHD/ADD, arthritis and Alzheimer's disease there were two health issues that I kept running into as causative factors of these particular health problems and other degenerative or chronic illnesses. They were heavy metal poisoning, particularly mercury, lead and aluminum, and poor intestinal health such as leaky gut syndrome, irritable bowel syndrome and colitis. When these two things are addressed there is almost always a significant improvement in health or a complete cure.

I personally had both heavy metal poisoning (mercury and lead), leaky gut syndrome and irritable bowel syndrome. My particular health problems were chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia and adrenal gland insufficiency leading to severe anxiety and almost adrenal failure. Our bodies respond to heavy metals and poor digestion in different ways according to where our bodies are weakest or how high an exposure to heavy metals.

By researching online I have found a lot of people healing themselves through chelation therapies for removing heavy metals from their body and by following protocols to improve their intestinal health. It's amazing stuff.

The causes of poor intestinal health can be multiple food allergies, candida overgrowth due to poor diet and overuse of antibiotics, parasites, etc. The causes of heavy metal poisoning are dental amalgams (mercury), air pollution, inks used in printed materials, cosmetics, underarm deodorant, cooking pots and pans, aluminum foil, perfumes, vaccinations and many more ways.

Anyway, I just found it very interesting that these two health issues kept coming up as possible causes for many degenerative and chronic illnesses. It's definitely something to look into if you are suffering with this type of health problem.
