Recent heavy metals toxicity test showed high levels of cesium. Test results referred to the downstream impact of Fukushima/ contamination of our food chain as a potential cause...Are we all doomed??

D2 it's not exactly the most thrilling experience when you find out you're being poisoned by the environment and man made catastrophes. You're ignorant to think you're not being exposed to heavy metals in your everyday life. Test yourself and find out!

I think what D2 and I have been saying is that there has been no science linking Fukushima specifically to heavy metal poisoning in the US. I don't doubt there are other potential sources though -- if my insurance covers it maybe I'll get tested, although from what I'm able to see a single lab result isn't conclusive as there's no way to directly measure the levels of heavy metals within the body and we can only take secondary measurements corresponding to the heavy metals being eliminated from the body via urine/blood/hair.

like

DD1 - almost right. The heavy metals aren't eliminated that quickly - they are deposited into our muscles and tissues - which is how they build up and you experience toxicity. If you are frequently being exposed to a contaminant (i.e. Drinking water, compromised food source, etc.) then you likely have high toxicity which means it can be detected in your bloodstream at high levels as well - but the high blood levels can also be indicative of a recent exposure vs. an accurate picture of the full body toxicity.

There is a way to get an accurate picture of the total exposure in your body, but it requires a tissue sample.

Make sure you pay attention to your symptoms and not lose track of who you are and where you need to be mentally, physically, and emotionally.
