In modern society we are constantly exposed to heavy metals such as cadmium, lead, and mercury. These metals have no essential biochemical roles in our body and can cause harm if they build up in the tissues. There is good news though and that is that there are foods that bind these heavy metals and remove them from our bodies. Foods that are high in sulfur can help detoxify or block absorption of heavy metals.
Foods that are good sources of sulfur are garlic, onions, cruciferous vegetables, including broccoli.
