Heavy Metals & Toxins: Get Them Out

Heavy Metals & Toxins: Get Them Out

Heavy metals and environmental toxins are often invisible but can have a big impact on your health over time. From the air we breathe to the food we eat, we’re exposed to toxins like lead, mercury, aluminum, and pesticides daily. That’s why daily habits as well as routine cleansing are essential!

HEAVY METALS, TOXINS, & DETOXIFICATION AT A GLANCE

Common toxins include mercury, lead, aluminum, pesticides, plastics, and synthetic chemicals.

Toxic buildup can contribute to fatigue, brain fog, hormone imbalances, and weakened immunity.

The body has natural detox pathways, but they can become sluggish without proper support.

Daily detox habits like hydration, clean eating, and lymphatic movement help reduce toxic overload.

Routine cleansing with targeted herbs, essential oils, and supplements is key to long-term health and vitality.

Even with the cleanest diets and purest water, heavy metals can accumulate in the body, affecting everything from brain function to immune health. Over time, this toxic buildup can lead to symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, digestive issues, and even more serious health problems.

That’s why daily habits as well as routine cleansing are essential!

We want to remove heavy metals and other toxins so that we can restore balance and keep the body functioning optimally.

DAILY STEPS FOR REMOVING TOXINS

Invest in a high quality air purifying system.

Drink purified water with minerals every day. (Add Mineral Essence to your routine!)

Eat organic as much as possible and avoid or severely limit processed foods.

Use Thieves Fruit & Veggie Wash to remove pesticides from non-organic produce.

Switch to natural home and personal care products.

Your body does its best to detoxify naturally, especially when well supported on a daily basis, but when the load gets too heavy, it can struggle to keep up. This is where targeted cleanses come in.

Use food and supplements to bind and eliminate heavy metals and toxins!

Cilantro and celery seed are powerful detoxifiers that help bind to heavy metals and flush them out of your system.

Antioxidant-rich foods like berries, garlic, and turmeric can also support your body’s natural detox pathways and protect against further damage caused by these harmful substances.

And Young Living has these for us in easy to use formulas!

DAILY HABITS FOR HEALTHY DETOXIFICATION

Practices like dry brushing, sweating through exercise or saunas, and staying hydrated can help your body release toxins more efficiently. (And all those things help with lymphatic flow! It is truly all connected.)

Dry brush daily with Cypress and Grapefruit essential oils to stimulate lymphatic flow and promote toxin release.

Sweat regularly through exercise, hot yoga, or saunas to encourage toxin elimination through the skin.

Stay hydrated with plenty of water, adding Mineral Essence to replenish vital minerals and support detox processes.

Support lymphatic health with gentle movement like rebounding, yoga, or stretching to promote fluid circulation.

Eat a clean, whole foods diet rich in antioxidants, fiber, and detoxifying foods like leafy greens, cruciferous vegetables, and citrus.

Practice mindful breathing or meditation to reduce stress and support the body’s natural detox functions. Pair with Frankincense, Valor, or Peace & Calming oil to calm the nervous system.

Use essential oils like Lemon, Peppermint, and Rosemary to stimulate detoxification and clear the mind.

Get quality sleep to allow the body’s natural repair and detox processes to occur overnight. If needed, add Super Magnesium and/or Deep Night Essence supplements to improve sleep.

Cleansing out heavy metals and toxins may not be an overnight fix, but the results—a clearer mind, more energy, and better overall health—are well worth the effort

ESSENTIAL OILS

When you have a cough or cold or feel one coming on, you just want to be comfortable – especially if you still have to work, travel, or take care of your children or loved ones! (click on the individual oil pictures to learn more about the oil)

Thieves Essential Oil Blend:

This blend is our go-to for all things immune system related! It's the blend infused into the chest rub and cough drops we just talked about – and for good reason! We love to apply and diffuse this blend, add Thieves Vitality to a mug of echinacea tea, or add it to epsom salts for an immune supporting detox bath!

Frankincense Essential Oil:

Frankincense is an immune and respiratory powerhouse! This historical oil has been used for centuries for health. Apply it with Thieves, Lemon, R.C. or Purification to the chest and back, add a few drops to the Thieves Chest Rub when you apply, add Frankincense to epsom salts for a detox bath, and diffuse this oil when you're feeling down. Get it in, on and around you as much as possible!

Lemon Essential Oil:

Lemon is a wonderful oil for soothing cough and creating comfort in times of congestion. Diffuse it, apply it with Frankincense and Thieves Chest Rub, add a few drops of Lemon Vitality to echinacea tea, and add Lemon to detox baths. Lemon is high in limonene, a constituent highly regarded for its immune system support.

R.C. Essential Oil Blend:

Standing for Respiratory Comfort, R.C. essential oil blend is a gentle eucalyptus blend that we love for soothing and comforting the respiratory system. Diffuse, apply, and add this oil to detox baths as much as possible. This is a great choice for little ones too!

Purification Essential Oil Blends:

This purifying blend is another favorite for immune and respiratory needs. Containing Tea Tree, Lemongrass, Myrtle and other purifying oils, it makes a great addition to your comfort routine during times of cough or cold. Diffuse, apply, and add to bath salts.

Raindrop Technique Collection: This curated set of essential oils is a powerful tool for promoting health, wellness and vitality – both proactively and for acute needs since the oils included can be incredible tools for healing! This collection features nine essential oils with immune and respiratory support properties. We love them for making rollers and adding to detox baths!

Thieves chest rub & cough

THIEVES CHEST RUB

A must-have for every medicine cabinet, Thieves Chest Rub is a 100% plant-based alternative for over-the-counter cough and congestion relief. This natural chest rub soothes sniffles, coughs, and congestion for the whole family with a powerful blend of essential oils and natural, plant-based ingredients.Plus the easy-to-use bottle doesn't even require you to get your hands messy!! The formula is free of petroleum, parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, synthetic perfumes or dyes, artificial colors, or preservatives and still packs an incredible punch when it comes to cough and cold! Pure ingredients and all the power of Thieves kicking that chest congestion to the curb? We will take some of that!

Sadly, conventional chest rubs are filled with synthetic additives and diluents, and even the ‘natural' options are less than ideal. Many options use petroleum as a base. Petroleum (petrolatum) is often not fully refined in the US, which means it can be contaminated with toxic chemicals called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.Many ‘natural' chest rubs also contain impure essential oils or other lower-grade components that don't meet the same standards as the ingredients found in Young Living products. The active ingredient in the most popular over the counter chest rub is actually a synthetic version of Ravintsara essential oil! And we are always going to choose the original over a synthetic copy, especially when it comes to our health and our family's health!

THIEVES COUGH DROPS

Get natural, quick, and safe cough, congestion, and sore throat relief Thieves Essential Oil-Infused Cough Drops! These are a staple in our cough and cold toolbox. They are easy to keep at home or take on the go, made with naturally derived ingredients, taste great, and work wonders!

Thieves Essential Oil-Infused Cough Drops are minty, spicy, and sweet without processed sugar, dyes, artificial flavors, or preservatives found in conventional cough drops. Infused with Cinnamon Bark, Peppermint, and Lemon essential oils, these menthol-based drops make soothing coughs and colds simple and tasty.

THIEVES HARD LOZENGES

Infused with Young Living's signature Thieves essential oil blend of Clove, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus, Rosemary, and Lemon essential oils, these lozenges are one of the things we reach for to keep our immune systems firing on a daily basis! The Thieves Hard Lozenges are a sugar-free dietary supplement to add to your daily wellness regimen with more of a cinnamon taste than a menthol one.We use these daily when we need a lozenge, when we travel to bolster our immune systems, and sometimes in place of the Thieves Cough Drops when we are out or if someone doesn't want the strong menthol taste of the drops (but it's that menthol that helps open the airways and soothe the throat!).

A Natural Segue: When Herbs and the Balance & Burn System Work Side by Side

What if appetite control starts in the brain rather than the plate? New research reveals how BDNF-driven neural circuits influence hunger, chewing, and metabolic signaling—offering a fresh perspective on weight support. This companion article explores how turmeric, lion’s mane, ginseng, and green tea work together in a clean stacking strategy that supports neural readiness first, then metabolic follow-through. Learn how timing matters, why these herbs prepare the brain to listen, and how this approach later aligns beautifully with structured systems like Balance & Burn for sustainable, nervous-system-friendly progress.
