Detoxify From Radon Exposure

Sea vegetables are vital to detoxifying from radon exposure.


Your home is your cocoon during the winter, but it can harm your family's health when ventilation and fresh air currents are shut off, and indoor air pollution builds up. The Environmental Protection Agency says indoor air pollution is actually worse than outdoor pollution. Radon gas escapes from decaying rocks and soil, and can leak into homes through small cracks in the basement floor. According to the World Health Organization, radon exposure is the second most important cause of lung cancer in most countries. Professionals can inspect homes for radon levels and make repairs, but the human body must also be detoxified.


Instructions


1. Take at least three teaspoons of powdered organic kelp daily. Kelp provides a natural source of iodine. Stuffing the body with kelp protects the thyroid gland from absorbing environmental contaminants. Iodine lessens the risk of thyroid damage from radon exposure.


2. Take one detox bath every night. This will pull toxins out of the body through the skin. Fill a bathtub with the hottest water you can stand. Add one pound of Epsom salt and one pound of baking soda to the water. Stay in the bathtub for 20 to 30 minutes. Finish with a cold shower rinse for about a minute.


3. Adopt a macrobiotic diet, which includes brown rice, miso soup, sea vegetables, pumpkin and sea salt. Avoid sugar and sweets.


4. Take spirulina on a daily basis. With just 5 grams of spirulina a day for 45 days, the Institute of Radiation Medicine in Minsk, Russia, showed that spirulina enhances immune systems and T-cell counts, regenerates bone marrow and spinal fluids, improves blood and reduces radiation. The same study showed that spirulina reduced urine radioactivity in children by 50 percent in just 20 days. Spirulina is a natural source of iron, which helps reduce anemia in radon-exposed individuals.


5. Eat other sea vegetables daily. Choose wakame, arame, hijiki, nori, dulse and kombu. Purchase these at an Asian food market or health food store. Snip them with scissors into your daily salad, or purchase them powdered and add them to soups and smoothies.


6. Consume other "superfood" grasses. Chlorella is 60 percent protein by weight. Its high chlorophyll content detoxifies the liver, bowel and bloodstream, plus it protects against radiation and boosts the immune system. Wheat and barley grass have similar detoxifying properties. Add these to daily green smoothies for their best benefits.
