The tile man
I had a conversation with a man carrying on tradition in his family by working putting in tiles, doing construction, and planning buildings in
a small town in Virginia. Self-employed, he uses zero-VOC paints, glues, sealants, etc. At home there is organic beef and veggies and no fluoride.
He has become aware of toxins spewed out in the area from businesses that have had a negative health effects on older family members. So now he and his wife are ready to test for their toxic loads. They (preschool children included) will have a mercury-free (IAOMT) dentist. They plan to make changes to the family’s electronic environment. As they see it these are important details for quality of life in the 21st century.

The soap is full of nutrients. It feels so…soothing to those who have had chemo therapy and radiation. But others with skin conditions like rosacea and more can appreciate Tasha’s Own. You can buy it at the Farmers Markets and around town. It’s from a local farm you can visit.

David brought home a catalogue after going to a business meeting here. I easily checked out the brand name through the environmental working group’s website: ewg.org. It’s an old recognizable company, but I tossed out the catalogue.

Some of us can feel the increasing wireless atmosphere, others can’t. Scientists now know it’s a stress factor. Black tourmaline is an excellent protective stone to have in the car. I learned that from a medical doctor at an integrative holistic medical event not that far away.
Sticks Stones and Bones sells them on Richmond Rd. They can teach you how to clean them periodically.

Christopher Shade, PhD is a globally recognized expert about testing and detoxing mercury (a potent neurotoxin). He has been featured in DAMS (Dental Amalgam Mercury Solutions) newsletter articles in more recent years.
His tri-test using urine, blood, and hair through Quicksilver Scientific shows levels of different forms of mercury and gives some indication of kidney functioning. This is a newer test.
The test kit can be ordered by any individual in Virginia online You return the kit by mail with your specimens. The cost (not covered by insurance) includes explanation of results. For detox you may, but need not choose this company.
Although some forms of mercury have been banned in my lifetime, other sources remain.
William and Mary geology students have been appreciative of DAMS participating in college Earth Day events. They understand they are being exposed to some mercury in their coursework. But many folks using skin lighteners aren’t aware that there are some 19 products containing a very high level of mercury. I learned that detail from the Sierra Club.
