Whats the mechanism involved in the heavy metal removal?
Definitive, empirical research has not yet been undertaken to determine the exact mode of action of HMD. However, based on research of similar products such as Chlorella Growth Factor, which is a neuropeptide, it is possible that the peptides in HMD bind to several receptor sites on the metal molecule creating a strong irreversible bond with little chance of competition from other competitor molecules – this means less reabsorption of the metal by the body. Peptides really stick to metals with an order of magnitude far greater than their synthetic chelating counterparts. This means that the metals are more likely to be eliminated by the body as opposed to being reabsorbed. The research that has been conducted on HMD to date has clearly shown that it has a natural affinity for eliminating metals through the urinary tract, as opposed to the biliary tract. This again will lessen the likelihood of metals being reabsorbed in the gut. It is freely absorbed by the oral mucosa and it is postul
