Right now, there are around 700 chemicals/toxins in your body that shouldn’t be there – and they are wrecking people’s health
The infiltration of foreign chemicals into our bodies is a consequence of the rapid industrialization and consumer-driven culture of our era. Annually, the global output exceeds 250 billion tons of more than 150,000 artificial chemical compounds, many of which inevitably find their way into our biological systems.
Studies have revealed concerning discoveries regarding industrial chemicals within human organisms:
Adults – harbor 420 substances, either confirmed or suspected of causing cancer and diseases
Newborns – Of the 287 chemicals detected in umbilical cord blood, we know that 180 cause cancer in humans or animals, 217 are toxic to the brain and nervous system, and 208 cause birth defects or abnormal development in animal tests.
The dangers of pre- or post-natal exposure to this complex mixture of carcinogens, developmental toxins and neurotoxins have never been studied.
OVERWHELMING, to say the least. Where do we even start?
We start with slowly….. and I mean slowly…. thinking about how these chemicals are getting into our bodies and what we can control. We have to help pour bodies by limiting exposure and that BEGINS with what we “consume” (food we eat, water we drink, air we breathe), and they are being absorbed through the skin.
Food/Water
Everything begins with what we eat. The food we consume either helps the body naturally detox or it continues to clog up our detoxification systems. Eating organic Whole Foods, and drinking filtered water (spring water is my choice) and having air purifiers (air doctor is probably the best) are incredible steps in reducing your toxin load.
Movement
Sweating gets toxins out of the body. Our bodies release waste products through our sweat. There are so many health benefits moving our bodies!
Switching Household Product
This is everything from cleaning products to sunscreen and even toothpaste. It is actually impossible to have a toxin free home but reducing exposure can help. Websites like 💜Ewg.org is helpful and i love brands like Rowe casa, truly free, branch basics and primally pure.
Supplements
There are a few incredible supplements I give my family that gently support the body to better detect and eliminate toxins/chemicals.
NOW FOR THINGS TO HELP WITH TOXINS WE CAN’T CONTROL…
Gentle Detox Support
Acemannan
Acemannan – helps the immune system function properly to better detect and destroy harmful toxins
Acemannan is a powerful polysaccharide derived from the inner leaf of aloe vera that plays a dual role in the body: it supports detoxification and strengthens immune function. It helps remove toxins by binding to harmful substances like mycotoxins, heavy metals, and viral byproducts, making them easier for the body to eliminate through the lymphatic and digestive systems. At the same time, acemannan activates key immune cells—such as macrophages, T cells, and natural killer cells—enhancing the body’s ability to detect and destroy pathogens or damaged cells. It also supports the gut lining and microbiome, which are critical for filtering out toxins and regulating immune responses. By working at the cellular level to both clear toxins and modulate immune activity, acemannan helps restore balance and resilience to the entire body.

Core
CORE helps gently detox the body by using acacia fiber and citrus pectin to gently bind toxins in the gut and carry them out through the stool. Citrus pectin is especially effective at trapping heavy metals and environmental toxins. It supports healthy digestion and elimination by feeding beneficial gut bacteria. Antioxidants from organic greens and chlorella reduce oxidative stress and protect cells during detox. Together, these ingredients strengthen the gut lining and help your body identify, trap, and remove harmful toxins more efficiently.
Dosage
Adults: I take 1-2 packets daily
Children: I give my children one full packet a day starting at 6 months old, in juice or milk.
Can be purchased with acemannan (immun) for 15% off and free shipping
Okra
Okra helps the body gently detox toxins because its gel-like mucilage binds to bile acids, which often carry toxic compounds. This prevents toxins from being reabsorbed through enterohepatic recirculation and allows them to be eliminated in stool.
The mucilage also coats and soothes the intestinal lining, protecting it from irritation and permeability caused by toxins. Its soluble fiber feeds beneficial gut bacteria, which can further help break down and neutralize harmful substances.
Unlike harsh pharmaceutical binders, okra works gradually, making it easier on the gut and less likely to deplete minerals. This combination of binding, protection, and microbiome support makes okra a safe, gentle option for ongoing detox.
Dosage
Adults: I take 4 capsules a day (2 in the am 2 in the pm)
Toddlers: I give my toddlers one capsule a day, broken open int juice
Infant: starting at 6 months old my child gets 1/4 capsule daily
Castor Oil Packs
Queen of the Thrones® Castor Oil Packs help both kids and adults gently support their body’s natural detox process. When placed on the skin, the castor oil pack promotes circulation and helps stimulate the liver, a key organ for filtering toxins. This gentle method doesn’t require harsh cleanses or fasts, making it easy and safe for the whole family. The soft, reusable packs are mess-free and simple to use, even while relaxing or sleeping. By supporting the body’s own cleansing systems, Castor Oil Packs can help you feel healthier and more balanced every day.

Detox Bath
A detox bath with bentonite clay, magnesium flakes, hydrogen peroxide, and baking soda works by supporting your body’s natural ability to eliminate toxins through the skin. Bentonite clay binds to mycotoxins and pulls them out, while magnesium relaxes the body and supports cellular detox.
Hydrogen peroxide adds oxygen to the skin, helping break down microbial waste, and baking soda soothes inflammation while gently alkalizing the body. Together, this combination opens the pores, stimulates lymph flow, and helps draw out mold-related toxins stored in tissues.
Fulvic / Humic Blend
Fulvic and humic acids are naturally occurring compounds found in rich, organic soil that help the body detoxify by binding to and removing harmful substances. These powerful compounds act like molecular “chelators,” latching onto heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, and environmental toxins—making them easier for the body to excrete through urine, sweat, or bile.
Fulvic acid is especially effective at penetrating cell membranes, helping to transport nutrients in and pull waste products out. Humic acid works more broadly in the gut and bloodstream, binding to larger toxins and supporting microbial balance. Together, they help reduce the toxic burden on vital organs, support liver and kidney function, and strengthen the body’s natural detox pathways—all while replenishing essential minerals that may be depleted during detoxification.
I give my toddlers one whole packet of this per day, can also put it in baths for smaller children.
