#73. Your Body Is Full of Forever Chemicals. Here's How to Actually Get Them Out - Dr. James Seberger MD, PhD

from Heal Without Harm

There are toxic chemicals in your blood right now. They've been there since before you were born. They're in your cookware, your food packaging, your drinking water, and your furniture. They don't break down. They don't leave on their own. And until very recently, medicine had no answer for how to remove them.That changes with this episode.Dr. Clayton Dir PT, DPT sits down with Dr. P. James Seberger, M.D., Ph.D. — physician, researcher, and one of the few clinicians actively working on how to get forever chemicals, known as PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), out of the human body. Dr. Seberger recently delivered a presentation on this topic to first responders and at-risk populations, and today he's bringing that same information to you.This is the episode your doctor hasn't had yet.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━📊 VIEW DR. SEBERGER'S FULL PRESENTATION━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━Dr. Seberger has made his complete research presentation available for anyone to view. This is the same deck he presented to first responders and at-risk communities — packed with clinical data, study references, and the science behind PFAS removal.👉 https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1FxPDPp-sWYeb3bFG-_Z6lNJsV_Qjf8YS/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=102123467462544177356&rtpof=true&sd=trueShare this link with anyone you know who needs to see it — especially firefighters, first responders, and military personnel.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━What are PFAS or forever chemicals?PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are a group of man-made chemicals used in consumer and industrial products since the 1940s. They are characterized by extremely strong carbon-fluorine bonds that resist breakdown, meaning they persist indefinitely in the environment and accumulate in the human body over time.What blood level of PFAS is considered harmful?According to the National Academies of Sciences (2022), adverse health effects are not expected below 2 ng/mL, potential effects exist between 2 and 20 ng/mL, and there is increased risk of adverse effects above 20 ng/mL.Can you remove PFAS from the human body?Yes. A 2024 randomized crossover clinical trial published in Environment International demonstrated that oral cholestyramine (4g three times daily) reduced serum PFOS by 60% over 12 weeks with no serious adverse events. A firefighter study showed the treatment reduced PFAS half-life from 7.3 years to just 1.2 years.What is cholestyramine and how does it remove PFAS?Cholestyramine is an FDA-approved anion-exchange resin traditionally used to lower cholesterol. It binds to bile acids in the intestine — and because PFAS undergo enterohepatic recirculation (cycling through the liver and gut), cholestyramine intercepts and removes them through the stool before they re-enter the bloodstream.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━CONNECT WITH DR.

Explicit F*ck Surviving, We're Thriving Malina Lopez Hello beautiful humans! I have been on my holistic healing journey since 2020 after a massive awakening thanks to a sound healing ceremony. Since then I have dedicated my free time to health and healing (when I'm not too consumed with being a mama of two). Health is something that has always been important to me, but healing myself in a holistic way has allowed me to become a version of myself I am truly proud of. I had no idea there was an option for living life outside of survival mode. As someone who has been in some state of fight, flight or freeze since I was a small child the idea of any other life seemed out of reach and down right unrealistic. I honestly thought how I was living and feeling was totally normal. Once I started to heal all parts of myself down to the cells I am made up of I realized life is so much more than people pleasing, anxiety attacks and living life in a haze. I've been exciting that survival mode and entering my era of thriving.  I feel ready and so e Explicit
