FIND SUPPORT...what you can do

---

 Understand some of the common symptoms.  Learn how the IUD or Pill, or your diet, may have contributed.  If your relationship has been affected, understand the role copper (or the corresponding calcium shell and weakened adrenals) could be playing on your emotions, or read some of the many stories and cases shared here.   Come to understand why copper toxicity continues to remain misunderstood by reading this page, or sit back and watch the Copper Toxicity Movie.  Gain free insight on how to detox the body through the general healing resources on this page.  Learn how to get properly tested, including why standard blood testing can be so misleading. And be sure to click the MORE tab above where you'll find still more information and resources. 

 Only through proper testing will you know if, in fact, copper toxicity is the culprit. A blood test can discover copper toxicity IF copper is circulating in the body at the time of testing, but once the source of excess copper is removed, or copper is not being mobilized, the blood level will likely show normal.  A normal blood level is absolutely NOT an indication of copper toxicity status or detoxification progress. Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA), when properly interpreted, remains the gold standard test for understanding copper toxicity and, more importantly, provides guidance for safe healing and mineral re-balancing. 

The HTMA results provide a wealth of information for guiding a copper toxicity detox and rebalancing protocol.  All too often practitioners simply focus on boosting the adrenals and giving zinc to 'balance' copper, but this ignores all the potentially negative detox reactions of copper mobilization as well as the need to approach 'copper' by taking into consideration the patient's overall mineral profile. Slow and steady is the best approach to avoid adverse reactions.  Since the process can take months to years in some cases, patience and kindness to yourself is important, along with ongoing HTMA-based monitoring.  Equally important is educating yourself on potential emotional detox reactions so as not to fall victim to decisions they might lead to.  

 If indeed you are copper toxic, it can be especially helpful to have a tribe around you who understands what you're going through. I have brought together several of the world's most respected experts and researchers in this field.  For emotional support, I highly recommend:

1. Anna Orlinska who, having gone through the severity of copper toxicity herself, was the inspiration for the creation of this website.  Book your complimentary discovery session with her today, through  https://awakenedyou.ca/ 

2.  Kirby Amour, also with copper toxicity experience, has created an emotional support system and copper toxicity "survival guide".   You can join her tribe and program at kirbyamour.com/rickf, and by using promo code RICKWELLNESS you'll receive a very special purchase discount.   (Alternatively, for all my clients who order the "Platinum Package" here, in addition to the HTMA testing, guidance and bonuses, you'll also receive completely free access to Kirby's full program and support).

One of the best things we can do, beyond our own healing, is spread awareness in order to help others connect the dots, to increase pubic support and societal understanding, and help shift our health consciousness so that future generations may not needlessly be affected.  The copper IUD has been one of several key factors leading to the copper toxicity epidemic, and there are several awareness campaigns you can join specifically in this regard, including:

• Pussy Pledge for removal of copper IUDs
• seedandspark.com "Inner U Destroyed" upcoming film crowdfunding
• Change.org campaign requesting full disclosure of IUD symptoms
• you can also officially report your experience with a device that has caused you harm via MedWatch
• FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM HERE. 
• other groups can be found in the 'Support & Stories' section of the References page.

When it comes to copper toxicity, and the fields of health and nutrition are no different, there is so much conflicting information out there that makes 'trusting who to believe' so difficult.  The vast majority of nutrition articles on the Internet, along with medical training in schools, ignore the fundamental role that minerals play in health.  You've seen here already how big a role even just the imbalance of copper has on health, yet much of this information is ignored 'out there'.  Copper is but one mineral.  EVERYONE has imbalances across their mineral profiles, and by understanding how these various imbalances affect our health, we can not only take back our health, but also protect our long term wellness.  

Mineral Mastery is the original and leading online mineral-based study course, designed for the public and loved just as much by practitioners.  Those who gain the Mineral Mastery education have a huge advantage over the masses when it comes to supporting and optimizing their nutrition, supplementation, detox, and health.
