Another one of Dr. Staninger’s research papers has just published on her website titled Exposure to Nephrotoxins.

This one is a pretty quick read and on the subject of nephrotoxins.

A nephrotoxin is any substance that causes injury to the kidneys. Our kidney is an extremely complex organ, both anatomically and functionally.

An excerpt:  “In addition to the excretion of wastes, the kidney plays a significant role in the regulation of total body homeostasis; it is the predominant organ involved in regulation of extracellular fluid (ECF) volume and electrolyte composition. The kidney also is a major site of formation of hormones that influence systemic metabolic functions…”

She goes into detail on the specifications of nephrotoxins as well as many other factors that can ‘influence’ renal function and possibly lead to kidney disease. As always, our organ systems are very sophisticated and inter-connected – there are many variables that lead to problems with the kidneys but here is list from her paper of some of the top offenders:

Heavy Metals – mercury, cadmium, chromium, arsenic, gold, lead, iron, antimony, uranium, lead, zinc, nickel, and thallium.

Halogenated Hydrocarbons – chloroform, bromobenzene, hexachlorobutadiene, petroleum hydrocarbons.

Therapeutic Agents – microbivores, nanocomposites, analgesics, anesthetics, antibiotics/antivirals, antifungals, cephalosporins, tetracyclines, demeclocycline, Amphotericine B, antineoplastic agents (cisplatine)

Immunosuppressants – cyclosporine and others

Environmental Contaminants – herbicides, pesticides, hazardous wastes, substances, Chem Trails residues, fungicides, biological and chemical agents, advanced nano materials and biomaterials (microbivores), botanicals, mycotoxins, organic solvents, experimental tools/miscellaneous polymers.

She also offers a long list of supplements to aid in support and minimize the harmful effects exposure to hazardous materials and toxins can cause.

Among these supplements is an amazing product called, Vermiizyme. This is a proprietary product developed by Dr. Staninger with many qualities including the feeding of the mitochondria. The mitochondria are organelles responsible for things like cell energy and metabolism.

6 squirts in the mouth and 1 on the belly and you have just fed your cells beneficial bacteria, enzymes, micro enzymes, microsomal enzyme inducers and proteins.

Sound appetizing?! The funny thing is my kids love it because it has a super sour burst of taste that makes you pucker up. I love it because it has been a part of my recovery program for more than a year now and I feel it’s benefits every time I use it.

Please go read all Dr. Staninger’s papers on her website because there is no price you can place on being educated and empowered to walk a healthy life today.
