Environmental Toxins
What are environmental toxins?
Environmental toxins, technically called toxicants, are substances produced endogenously from the human body and which, when absorbed, inhaled, or ingested, can cause acute or chronic toxic overload, which may manifest in a variety of biological organ, tissue, and cellular-level systems.
Environmental toxins are cancer-causing chemicals and endocrine disruptors, both human-made and naturally occurring.
Susceptibility to toxic overload varies person-to-person, and can be affected by a variety of factors including:
Genetics
Environment
Diet
Liver and kidney health
Microbiome composition and diversity
Age
Adiposity
Gender
Lifestyle
Immune system capacity

Screening for Environmental Toxins can aid practitioners in uncovering true root causes of toxicity from common environmental sources and provide a clear roadmap to detoxification and healing
