Since my body doesn't detox well what do I do?

I believe that you really should wait until you get the 23&me results interpreted before moving forward with much. It can tell you what to avoid and what to use to help your body detox better.

Can you "plug in" the test results into one of the sites that have been suggested on here? I've never even seen one of them, so I don't know how difficult it would be. But many do this themselves and can get started with changing things.

If you have homozygous MTFHR mutations you can have impeded ability to detox, for sure.

I preach sweating. Sweat, sweat, sweat.

Your skin is the largest and most capable detoxification organ in your body, use it!
Your skin can excrete, in just 1/2 hour sauna sweat, 6 DAYS worth of detoxing effort by your kidneys.

A proper sauna sweat is inconvenient at times, gross, and takes 1/2 hour out of your day, plus time spent showering afterwards... but think of the rewards!

Actually, with as sick as you are right now, sweating could be hard on you - if you try this and begin to feel really nauseous, stop the sauna. Also you will have to be sure that you are super hydrated (!!!) and be sure to keep water with you and sip on it the whole time you are in there.

Detoxing too fast can be dangerous for those that are very, very ill - it can create a cytokine storm - so detoxing must be done in a very methodical, careful way in order to not overwhelm the body with those toxins that are being "released".

Once a person is out of the "danger zone", I too believe that sweating is a very good thing - but not before.

Is there a "gene" Dr in your area that knows the 23me results. Go to mtthr support, look for drs.

Thats what I did. Its pretty complicated with just genetic genie- very limited info, not really enough to get well.

I have a gene mutation that makes milk thistle detox - TOXIC in me. wow. I threw out that bottle. Muscle testing also showed this.

Maybe cut back on whatever anti-microbials you are taking. "Herxing" is sometimes not herxing at all, but drug side effects. Sometimes it actually is a herx, but your body cannot eliminate as much as you are killing off, and then the toxins remain in your body, but worse because now you have dead debris floating around that is great for other infectious agents to feed on.

But if you can keep up with hot baths, skin brushing, coffee enemas, etc, then these can be helpful in eliminating toxins both from dead debris and drug toxins. Also, if your gut microbiome are not healthy, you will feel crummy too. Take probiotics away from anti-microbials.
