Daily Lead Detox

this entry has 0 Comments/ in people's choice / by admin
September 5, 2026

Artist: Grandma Lead

Lead-safety Message: Food, medicine and supplements I take daily, approximately meal-ordered – with acid reflux meds. My basic approach is to eat healthy foods including nuts/seeds, beans, greens and berries daily and to take every lead detox food like FeEDTA baked foods, psyllium, garlic, ginger, herbs and supplement like Vit C, Vit D and calcium, magnesium, sea minerals and pectin powder, plus the foods and supplements which overcome some of the problems caused by lead, like creatine, sea buckthorn oil and yoghurt.

Lead-safety Message: Children’s dining should never be this close to leadlighting. If children can touch leadlighting, collect a dust wipe sample from the sill or floor beneath it with a LEAD Group Kit.

Lead-safety Message: Protect our oceans from lead and leaded microplastics. Ban the addition of lead to all plastics including PVC, and to printing inks used on all packaging. Don’t let chalky lead paint or leaded PVC cladding be washed in to stormwater. Protect waterways and oceans from all toxics and from climate change if its not too late!

Lead-safety Message: Frogs are a sentinel species signifying a healthy environment and what could be better for you than home grown organic herbs daily for lead detox.

Artist: Grandma Lead

Lead-safety Message: On 17 Feb 2026 I started adding a teaspoon of yoghurt to each of 3 drinks and 3 meals per day in order to improve my immune health, which I know can be negatively impacted by lead. The yoghurt plus pectin-rich prune and dried apricot stewing water made my MCP (modified citrus pectin) powder and sea minerals taste better in rainwater! Also eaten daily are fresh ginger, garlic, red onion and FeEDTA banana bread.

Peasants Feast

Artist: Michael Maratea

Lead-safety Message: Pre-industrial era foods would have been low in lead except for communities near volcanos or forest fires which both emit lead. Pumpkin stew or orange lentil stew would both have helped to reduce lead absorption and remove any lead imbibed in alcoholic drinks, from the body.

Artist: Danny Wang

Age: 9

School Name: Creative Einstein

Lead-safety Message: If you have a ceramic jug at home that’s got cracked or chalking glazing, it’s best not to use it for drinks, especially not for acidic fruit juice, but its fine to use it as a vase. Just don’t put it in the dishwasher in case the heat further degrades the glaze and releases lead and/or cadmium on to your other crockery and utensils in the load.

Artist: Marelle Piche

Lead-safety Message: Crafting like making amigurumi (Japanese) crochet baby giraffes is quite a challenge but I’m so glad I made one for my sister’s granddaughter – even if I did need help from ChatGPT to follow the instructions. It all helps stave off dementia!

Artist: Howard Jacobs

Lead-safety Message: Switzerland ranks among the very highest in the world for longevity, holding one of the top spots globally and regularly leading Europe. Faith community members also have longer health-spans and I am eternally grateful for all that has been created by Divine Mind.

Artist: Poultry Keeper

Lead-safety Message: Despite being the smartest chicken I’ve ever had, my Catriona found a screw in the yard and swallowed it and had to be treated for lead poisoning. To warn others, LEAD Group Kit comments on egg lead results reports are from now on going to include the warning: Lead head and leaded galvanised screws were common on old roofs and are often found in soil so be sure to run a fine rake over your backyard and remove all metal items found, before letting poultry use your chicken run and free range area.
