An Abstract
The subject of Detoxification which forms the basis of Alternative Medicine has been a controversial one with Allopaths denying the existence of Toxins in the body. Allopathic Doctors tend to think that there are no toxins in the body and that the human body would die if there were toxins in the body.
However, mainstream medicine today does recognize Heavy Metal Toxins and knows that the human body does not necessarily die but continues to malfunction and suffer from chronic ailments in the presence of moderately high levels of Metal Toxins like Lead, Mercury, Arsenic, Nickel, Aluminum, etc. The presence of these heavy metal toxins can be verified by simple blood tests and these levels can be brought down by standard heavy metal detoxification processes.
An attempt is made to clear up this controversy once and for all and is an interesting concept and presentation in the evolution of Modern Ayurveda and Modern Medicine.
