Last month at the Flint Institute of Arts, the Universal Kidney Foundation hosted a Medical Symposium, aimed at the residents of Flint who have been affected by lead poisoning. On the panel, Benson Ekong, President of the UKF, Daniel Pompa, DC, Dr. Nikolaos Tsirikos-Karapanos, and Andrew McGarry, CEO of MyPro, shared their personal testimonies with heavy metal poisoning, or spoke up about their ideas to help residents of Flint.
Dr. Nikolaos Tsirikos-Karapanos, PharmD, MD, PhD, FETCS, and President of Metron Nutraceuticals, is the creator and scientist behind the CytoDetox™ product. He explained what the CytoDetox™ solution is and how it helps support the body’s natural ability to fight lead bioaccumulation.
CytoDetox™ is a new, patent-pending solution (not a suspension) of Hydrolyzed Clinoptilolite Fragments (HCF). CytoDetox™ is safe and contains a natural mineral supplement known to help support the body’s natural ability to detoxify after it has been exposed to heavy metals, pesticides, or hazardous chemicals.
CytoDetox™ particles are unique in that they are small enough to permeate cells and tissues deep within the body. Using all-natural ingredients with no known side effects, CytoDetox™ supports the body’s natural ability to detoxify. It is safe, effective and easy to use.*
A study from 2009 published in Nutrition and Dietary Supplements journal, found that the daily use of an activated clinoptilolite suspension represents a potentially safe and effective way to remove toxic heavy metals from the body through increased urinary excretion without removing vital electrolytes that the body needs to function properly.**
In addition to educating the city on this powerful nutraceutical supplement, the experts at the Medical Symposium discussed how lead is stored in the body. The experts clarified that if someone is exposed to lead, it will circulate in the blood for only a certain period of time and then moves on to be stored in the body’s deeper tissues, such as bone. This can often create an issue for blood work and lab results interpretation. The experts clarified that many people find that after initial blood work, the blood test results appear normal. In fact, this can provide false assurance as lead can still be hiding in the body.
Part of the UKF’s symposium panel’s plan is to implement appropriate testing while using CytoDetox™. CytoDetox™ is intended for use and distribution only by local physicians and medical practitioners.
