Mercury, Pesticides, PCBs and Then Some
As we have blogged about before, Dr. Fuhrman has some strong ideas about toxins.
One of the big toxins to worry about is, of course, mercury. But there are others, like chlordane, the DDT Family (DDT, DDD, and DDE), dieldrin/aldrin, mirex, toxaphene. The Oceans Alive website has information about all of these pesticides. There are also whole pages on dioxins, PCBs, and mercury.
All of Dr. Fuhrman's books have ideas about how to avoid toxins, much of which is available on DiseaseProof. For instance, there are some practical strategies in this post about mercury and another about organic food.
