Supporting Your Body Against “Forever Chemicals”

Dear Just Breathe family,

At Just Breathe Chiropractic, we’re always looking for ways to support your body’s natural healing intelligence — beyond what happens on the table.

Today, we want to shed light on something called PFAS, also known as “forever chemicals.”

These man-made substances are commonly found in:

• Nonstick cookware

• Food packaging

• Waterproof clothing

• Even our drinking water

Once inside the body, PFAS are extremely difficult to eliminate. But here’s the good news: your body can release these toxins — especially when supported with the right nutrition and lifestyle habits.

Everyday Detox Support:

Here are some powerful foods that help your body gently detox:

Fiber-rich plants

Flax, chia, oats, beans, and leafy greens help your gut bind and eliminate toxins.

Cruciferous vegetables

Broccoli, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, and arugula support your liver’s natural detox pathways.

Sulfur-rich foods

Garlic, onions, asparagus, and avocado enhance glutathione — the body’s master detoxifier.

Lemon, turmeric, and green tea

These natural detoxifiers help reduce inflammation and oxidative stress.

Hydration and sweating

Drinking clean water, engaging in movement, and using practices like sauna or breathwork help move toxins out.

While no single food can eliminate PFAS, your daily choices add up. By consistently nourishing your body with detox-supportive habits, you build resilience — and allow your nervous system to do what it does best: adapt, heal, and thrive.

We’re here to support you every step of the way. If you’d like more guidance on detox-friendly routines, breathwork, or personalized care, just reach out.

In health and ease,

Dr. Elizabeth Sordyl & the Just Breathe Chiropractic Team
