How to Get Sodium Nitrate Out of the Body

Sodium nitrate is a preservative and coloring additive found commonly in processed meats such as bacon, hot dogs, lunch meats and numerous other products. Although the preservative prevents the growth of bacteria, studies have linked eating it to various types of cancer. As a color preservative in meat, sodium nitrate provides consumers with a much more enticing red tint than that of its natural grey coloring. Sodium nitrate has also been shown to impact how well hemoglobin transports oxygen in the body.

Natural chelating agents, like chlorella and cilantro, are great ways to help rid your body of heavy metals and fat-soluble toxins.

Fasting is an opportunity for your digestive system to rid itself of toxins. If you choose detoxification by juicing your fruits and vegetables, it is recommended that you add fiber to your diet.
