You might not think you need a detox. You haven’t had a vaccine in years and you weren’t subjected to the insanity that is the current vaccination schedule. Maybe you have health issues. Maybe you don’t. But if you do, the health issues you have now could be a result of the vaccines you had way back when.
That’s right…if you are an adult, you had the pleasure of being injected with vaccines that contained unacceptable levels of mercury, caused devastating or chronic medical conditions, and were contaminated with viruses that cause cancer. You probably even had the “thank God, they’re finally off the market” DPT and oral polio vaccines.
Why detox?
The ingredients in the vaccinations you had way back when, the yearly flu shot you’re hopefully no longer getting, and the boosters to “boost” the effectiveness of ineffective vaccines, contain ingredients all of which have toxicological profiles that are either hazardous, neurotoxic, or carcinogenic. Although some ingredients may have been filtered by your body, chances are most of them weren’t, and over the years the accumulation adds up.
Vaccines (and the additives in them) are associated with numerous adverse reactions including (but not limited to) allergies, eczema, lupus, inflammatory bowel disease, autism, hyperactivity disorders, auto immune conditions, rheumatoid arthritis, neurotoxicity, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, brain encephalopathy, bone disease, and a variety of metabolic and cellular disorders.
And then there’s Alzheimer’s. Now that we’re adults, this is something we need to think about (before we can’t think about it). Don’t worry too much though, chelating the aluminum vaccines put into your brain is one of the up and coming treatments.
If looking up the toxicological profiles of all the additives doesn’t put your mind at ease, maybe the fact that you had a vaccine contaminated with a virus found in a wide array of cancer tumors will. You know, like the cancer-causing SV-40 virus you didn’t hear about on the news that contaminated both the IPV and OPV polio vaccines and is now cropping up in all sorts of cancerous tumors. But wait, you didn’t get the polio vaccine of the 1950s and 60s. Sigh of relief right?
Wrong. Unfortunately for you, and me, and just about everyone else, scientists have found SV40 antibodies and DNA in children who could not have possibly had the vaccine. Yes, the contaminated junk we get injected with can be passed on to our children and is being transmitted among humans today. Thank you boys (Salk and Sabin), for your vaccines, and thanks for the increased risk of cancer that is relatively unresponsive to chemotherapy and radiation.
Cancer…fun…not really. That’s why we’re detoxing.
The Detox
If you think natural medicine is quack, just bounce right off this post. I’ll see ya in the nursing home…except that I won’t, because I successfully detoxed from vaccines (and the aluminum in them) a long time ago. No neurotoxins, hazardous wastes, or carcinogens for me.
Here’s a list of some of my favorite detox strategies to address the toxic additives in the vaccines and the adverse reactions that go with them:
Detoxification Baths & Skin Brushing
Detox baths encourage the body’s largest elimination organ to remove chemicals and heavy metals from the body. Baths can be done daily or weekly and it may take several baths before the body starts releasing toxins. Before getting into the tub, brush your entire body with a skin brush. Start at the feet and work your way up. This removes dead skin and stimulates the lymph system. Next, use one of the following detox bath recipes:
- Apple Cider Vinegar Bath – Add two cups of apple cider vinegar to a warm bath to help remove toxins and heavy metals through the skin. This is the “go-to” bath for general detoxing.
- Epsom Salt Bath – Dissolve 1 cup epsom salt in a tub of water. Soak for 20 minutes 2-3x per week.
- Clay Bath – Clay is the go-to for all things cellular waste, metals, and chemicals and exhibits a negative charge that attracts the positive charged toxins, absorbs them, and removes them from the body. To do a detox bath with bentonite clay, add a 1/2 cup of epsom salt, 1/2 cup of bentonite clay, and 1 tablespoon of yellow dock root powder to your bath and soak for 20 minutes 2-3x per week.
- Essential Oil Bath – Essential oils are anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-parasitic, and anti-everything else. If you don’t believe me, you can check the PubMed database and sift through the thousands of studies confirming their healing properties. Because they’re so awesome and we’re talking viruses, bacteria, cellular wastes, metals, and toxins – you should probably add some to your bath … stat.To do a detox bath with essential oils, add five drops of lemongrass or coriander to a bath with a little bit of sea salt or a 1/2 cup of epsom salt.
Sweat
Whether you sit in an infrared sauna or run on a treadmill, the goal is to sweat. Toxins and heavy metals (including mercury) can be eliminated through sweat and some chemicals can only be removed by working up a good one.
Probiotics
Proper gut flora is essential to the functioning of your immune system and any detox regimen. If you want to restore your health, you’ve got to restore the gut.
Nutrients
Nutrients are essential to supporting the body during a vaccine detox. These specific nutrients combat free radicals and help facilitate the removal of toxins, while protecting the body as they make their way out.
- Vitamin C (preferably buffered)
- Vitamin E (preferably with selenium)
- Vitamins B-6 (timed-release)
- Vitamin B3
- Vitamin B-12 (liquid and preferably specific to genetic type)
- DHEA
Milk Thistle has been the subject of hundreds of studies and contains a substance called silymarin that is one of the most potent liver-protecting substances known to man and has proven effective against a variety of the most virulent toxins. Milk thistle is most effective when taken with lecithin and is not associated with any long-term risks or contraindications.
Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is a fatty acid and antioxidant found in every cell of the body that chelates and neutralizes harmful chemicals and increases the formation of glutathione which helps remove them. Since glutathione is pretty ineffective when taken orally, taking an ALA supplement will give you the benefits of both antioxidants. *If you have mercury fillings, you should avoid ALA until they are removed.
Algin is a non-digestable fiber found in brown seaweeds. It binds to toxins, keeps them from being re-distributed and reabsorbed by the body, and promotes their excretion.
The Coffee enema
Enemas have been used for detoxification since ancient times and are even recorded in the Dead Sea Scrolls and a third-century Aramaic manuscript found in the secret archives of the Vatican. Perhaps the best enema additive to use to facilitate the excretion of the nasties in your jabs, is coffee. Coffee detoxifies the liver, lowers blood serum toxins, and increases the liver’s detoxing abilities by 600% and the small intestine by 700%. The journal of Physiological Chemistry and Physics sums it up nicely,
“Caffeine enemas cause dilation of bile ducts, which facilitates excretion of toxic cancer breakdown products by the liver and dialysis of toxic products from blood across the colonic wall.”
If it works for cancer detoxification, it works for me. I ordered the enema kit and coffee here, and I highly recommend reading “The Gerson Therapy” and my post on the coffee enema for the 411.
Essential Fatty Acid Supplement
Omega 3, Flax, cod liver oil, or borage oil should be used while detoxing. Many of the omega 3’s on the shelf are rancid and contain very little DHA or EPA, so my go-to is Udo’s Oil or a highly absorbable krill supplement.
Homeopathic Antidotes
People love them some homeopathic antidotes. Typically, a homeopath or naturopathic doctor will either recommend a remedy based on your constitutional type and side effects you experienced as a result of being vaccinated, or they will recommend a vaccine potentized as a homeopathic remedy known as a “vaccine antidote.”
Even though you might have been vaccinated with a vaccine that is no longer used, you can still get an antidote for it. If you had DPT, OPV, or MMR, you’d want the DPT antidote, OPV antidote, and MMR antidote. Antidotes generally have no negative side-effects and are in an easy-to-take sugar pellet form that is dissolved under the tongue.
Water
When toxins are pulled from the body, they need to be flushed out. Full kidney function is dependent upon there being enough water in the body. Avoid soda, coffee, dairy, and junk juices. Drink half your body weight in ounces per day, and flavor it with lemon or chlorophyll if you can.
Fiber
Fiber scrubs your colon, absorbs toxins, and helps ya poop em’ out. My favorite brand is Garden of Life’s Detoxifiber.
Juice Therapy
I’m a “go big or go home” kind of girl. When I’m detoxing I don’t mess around, which is why juicing is a huge part of my ritual and should be a big part of yours. Juicing floods your body with the nutrients it needs to clean house, helps the body heal itself, and because your body is freed up from the burden of digestion, it’s free to focus on the burden of toxins. If you’re really serious about detoxing, don’t understand how juicing can possibly help your situation, or need a plan to follow, I highly recommend watching “SuperJuice Me!” and getting the “Big Book of Juices” for some simple juices you can incorporate into your routine.
Detox Side-Effects: What to Expect
Be prepared … you’re flushing out garbage and you’ll feel like garbage … at least for a few days. You might feel light-headed, nauseous, grumpy, experience a worsening of symptoms, night sweats, loose stools, or have flu-like symptoms. If your detox symptoms are extreme … slow down. There’s no need to rush things. If you need to, revert to the gentle vaccine detox plan here.
What To Do After a Detox
If you haven’t established a relationship with a natural medicine practitioner (like a naturopath, naturopathic physician, functional medicine doctor, or chiropractor), I would highly recommend it. These individuals are trained in nutrition and alternative therapies and can provide a specific plan to address your individual needs. If you’re overwhelmed and don’t know where to begin, invest in a juicer and take a trip to the sauna. You’ve gotta start somewhere … so start there!

May 18, 2019 at 9:19 amHoping for some advice for my 19 year old daughter entering university next fall. They are forcing vaccines by not allowing any exemptions of any kind. Even medical. The medical one they do offer is a joke. You must prove she was damaged by vaccines as a baby. As if her old pediatrician, who hasn’t seen her in 15 years will claim his office damaged her. And even if he did prove vaccines damaged her they would still make her get the ones that weren’t in the report. So basically, the medical exemption is just for show only. She isn’t getting out of these and she has a 677t mthfr mutation. My question is the detox before, during or after the vaccines? And for how long? Like one week prior or for 2 weeks after, day of, etc. And do you recommend doing all of the things you listed or pick and choose?

April 16, 2019 at 8:35 amHi Megan,
Great article. Thanks for sharing. I am a health coach and know that we are having up and coming forced vaccines. I’m glad I came upon your site. I knew a bunch of the things but there’s definitely a few things that I didn’t. What are your thoughts on castor oil packs which detox the liver? Also, the reason I was researching is b/c one of my clients just got pregnant. Is it possible to detox a fetus while you are detoxing from mandatory vaccines?
Megan Redshaw
April 18, 2019 at 9:23 pmHi Rebecca, You should not do any type of detox while you are pregnant. I think all valid authorities would agree with me on that one. Pregnancy is definitely a time for building. A lot of people like castor oil packs. I have used them before but for different reasons. I haven’t personally looked into whether there is valid research to support the belief that castor oil packs can detox the liver.

January 4, 2018 at 10:30 pmI am in the same situation as several of these nurses… I too, work in a hospital as a Health Unit Coordinator on a major surgery floor and am required to have ALL the vaccines, including a flu shot once a year. I got lucky by asking them to draw titers before giving me any major vaccinations and I got out of several but somehow, the Dtap is required every 10yrs, and of course, the flu shot, once a year. I am trying to find the best way to detox after having the DTap last week, and the flu shot this week. Do you have a detox juicing recipe you would recommend? As for the oils, do you just rub them on the vaccination site or do you ingest them…? I don’t know enough about this type of thing that I almost feel like a need a step by step on what to do. Help!! I need this stuff out of my system asap. I already have a complete loss of hearing in my right ear from an MMR shot when I was a child… =( I do not want any more adverse side effects.

May 18, 2019 at 9:00 amHi, Emily, I don’t see that she ever responded to your question. I know it’s too late but I’ll answer for her. The essential oil is for the bath. If you put on your skin you should mix with a carrier oil like almond oil. Now maybe you can answer one for me. I came here for info on my daughter who is forced to have vaccines for university. What are these titers you speak of and are they only good for certain vaccines or all of the? I can’t remember all the ones she needs before fall but whooping cough is one, I know, because I was successful throughout her school years getting an exemption. Now those exemptions are banned. I think dtap is another. I forgot the rest. I don’t even know where to go to get them as our family doc is a naturalpath and doesn’t do them (nor can I see him in time for advice as he is a busy doc. 6 month waiting list type of busy). PS. I too suffered hearing damage from MMR. Both ears. Audiologist always say it looks like a complete chemical burn inside my ears. All those little hairs you need to pick up sound were wiped out.

August 31, 2017 at 9:36 pmThank you very much for your information. I recently had to get a tetanus booster that was coupled with the TDAP vaccine because of a dog bite. It was the last thing I wanted to do but I wasn’t prepared for it. I already eat a very clean diet and have a relatively clean lifestyle as well. After reading through the side effects from detoxing it helped me realize my body has already been detoxifying without me actually making a full effort to.
I got night sweats for 3-4 days, the flu for about a week, my skin has definitely been better, and my husband has mentioned I have been particularly moody lately. So good to know my body is already taking care of itself, but I am definitely going to try a few of the suggestions you have here to help it along.
Thank you very much. I was really needing to see that light at the end of the tunnel.

August 12, 2017 at 1:49 am2 years ago we were “required” to take the flu vaccine at a major hospital in SoCal where I work as an RN. I had been exposed to the germs from 14 different countries in the preceeding 14 years with zero additional vaccines (I was vaccinated as a child & the customary tetanus boosters before learning about vaccines) and was sick ZERO TIMES. We were even exposed directly to (& did not contract) Dengue Fever, besides a host of other hideous diseases floating around in third world countries; no sickness.
Enter the flu vaccine, ONCE. In the following 7 months I was very sick TEN TIMES and the pain shooting from my deltoid to my hand continued for approximately six months; the knot at the injection site went away at last after about 4 months. The next year I tried to get exemption from the flu shot claiming these adverse reactions; no go. I could still live & breathe, so the suffering did not “count” toward exemption. You have to be debilitated; yet, even then it is closing in on illegal to blame the vaccine for anything untoward.
No Like.

May 30, 2017 at 4:29 pmHi, I just did the full series for Hep A and B because I had plans to go to Brazil. I’m 44. I know I had Hep A also done about 10 years ago (one shot only) before going to India. As a child (from Europe), I do not know what vaccines I had. I had the child hood diseases, whooping cough, measles and mumps so I wasn’t vaccinated against those anyhow. Should I be concerned? Would these detox baths help me? Thank you!
aNNA
May 30, 2017 at 4:32 pmAlso I had the Tdap done. I had no immediate side effects but I do have general problems with joint pain and digestive issues.
Nsncy
May 13, 2017 at 2:18 pmI got the Tdap upon the birth of my great grandson. My grandmother daughter has since realized her mistake and has not vaccinated. I had a severe reaction on my arm for weeks. Now I feel I am having a reaction 10 months later, with aches on joints and increased arthritis pain. Going to chiropractor who also does energy work. What else do you suggest? Taking Wellness Formula, D3, tumeric, “Heal n Sooth”, probiotics…

March 16, 2017 at 11:02 pmI received a tetanus shot two days ago for an accidental finger cut on a mandolin blade. It was a clean and new blade, but I got the shot anyway, and regretted it just seconds after! Do I need to contact an naturapath/ herbalist? How long should one do this detox? I now have something in my system that is suppose to last for 10 years! I’m very worried for my future health and the health of my future children.

November 2, 2016 at 3:49 pmWould like to go on a Mission’s trip to Africa in late Feb/March next year. They say I need a yellow fever shot. What should I do to prepare for the shot? Thank You so much
Jimmi
December 27, 2016 at 11:32 amI took 2X Kambo frog medicine before I left for the Amazon jungle. Did not take any vaccines for this trip, came back perfectly fine. Customs thought I was “insane” going to the jungle without the yellow fever vaccination 😂😂😂😂

October 18, 2016 at 3:18 pmYour disclaimer says that a person should consult a doctor that has NO training in detox. Thought you might like to know.
Megan Heimer
October 18, 2016 at 6:24 pmIt reads correct. It’s satire. 😉
Nate
July 10, 2018 at 9:34 amWell played. Keep up the good work
Jill
October 18, 2016 at 10:16 amHow many weeks do you continue the detox to feel confident the junk is out?!?
Janice Curtin
October 14, 2016 at 10:44 amI find NutraPro Cod liver oil, (order on Amazon) recommended by the Weston A Price Foundation, to be excellent. The fat soluble vitamins in cod liver oil activate minerals which bind to the toxic metals in your body. Standard Process products like Okra Pepsin help cleanse the intestines. Be sure to get lots of minerals from bone broth and water like Gerolsteiner water. Be aware that sometimes you cannot handle cod liver oil if you are too toxic. Toxins can prevent us from having good fat metabolism and absorbing fat soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and omegas. For information on the importance of Vitamins A and D, etc. look at http://www.westonaprice.org.

October 11, 2016 at 10:44 amI am literally at the moment in a complete panic. I am current 25 weeks pregnant, and today I was talked into getting the flu vaccine. I am petrified and cry wondering what have I done to my poor child. Do you have any advice on this? Is this really the end all be all vaccine or will he be okay? Is it okay to detox this out while still pregnant? I appreciate your site and info! I am so disappointed in myself for letting them talk me to into it.
Elizabeth
October 12, 2016 at 4:06 pmYou need to consult a classically trained homeopath stat. I like Mary Aspinwall, she’s also trained in CEASE therapy.
Jennifer
May 17, 2017 at 1:49 amI am against vaccines and opt out of them myself but you have to remember millions of people and children get these vaccines daily with no side effects. If you are healthy I wouldn’t worry about the one vaccine. It’s when babies get multiple vaccines at such a young age that there might be a concern. I had all the vaccines when I was a child and I am super healthy. I would never get one ever again though as I know better.
Maven
August 19, 2017 at 8:43 amAlso consider: when you were a child you may have had 6-12 vaccines, now it’s 69 vaccines in 16 doses. Yah- big jump. Now 1/50 boys, 1/100 girls autistic. 1/20 will have a seizure (symptom of adverse reaction from vaccine).
Jody
August 31, 2017 at 9:44 pmWhere do you find this information? I am trying to inform myself as much as possible lately. I am against vaccinations but my husband is not. Trying to gather as much information as possible so we can make good informed decisions. Thanks!
Natethagreat
July 10, 2018 at 9:44 amYou should look up websites that promote antivaxed children. Listen to them, they are not crazy, nor a conspiracy theorist. What they say is so black and white and in your face that you have trouble believing it. But it’s true.
Look up how to detox tangible and non tangible toxins, especially neurotoxins.
I am a huge proponent of Diatomaceous Earth and Bentonite Clay, both internally and for baths.
Then, research your but off about going antiVAX from now on with legal exemption for the right of common Sense and for your belief system. Tell them this goes against your faith

October 15, 2016 at 8:08 pmgo to a natural path or herbalist who will help you with a gentle detox.

April 5, 2018 at 3:17 pmI had my first flu shot ever and was very ill for a month afterwards and it reactivated my lpp. I must detox immediately.
Terry Kaz
December 16, 2015 at 3:30 amHello , I’m a 27 year old male.
Got the flu shot about five weeks ago, for my pre employment physical to work in a hospital.
I am getting lots of on going anxiety & chronic fatigue. I’ve lost 10 pounds since the shot. Not sure f its from the anxiety or reaction to the shot itself…
General malaise, muscle twitches, a feeling of chronic fatigue and tired all the time.
The list goes on….
my shot DID contain Thimerosal (mercury)
So im wondering, what is the best approach at this point?
Im taking multi vitamin, vitamin C, Vitamin D, fish oil, milk thistle, chlorella, probiotics, and garlic right now,
I just want to feel myself again…
Thanks Megan
Sophia
February 2, 2018 at 11:16 amI am so sorry to hear this. My sister is suffering from the same symptoms and worse. It’s been 3 months and no relief unfortunately. She becomes nu at times and has lost vision in one eye. No one wants to hear the flu shot caused this but there’s no other explanation. She was healthy as a horse
Natethagreat
July 10, 2018 at 9:48 amBentonite Clay baths and sweating. I drink a quart or so of hot tea right after working up a good sweat then hit a hot detox bath. Try that on for size.
You can also eat the Bentonite Clay. I weigh 175 and take half a spoonful a day during detox. The baths seem to work well

October 15, 2016 at 8:04 pmDo hulda clarks parasite cleanse/then cleanse kidneys first then liver. Go to a herbalist who will help u cleanse its worth every penny.
