Having an excess amount of heavy metals can negatively affect the human body. Some foods and medicines can help remove heavy metals from the body. Using such substances for this purpose is known as a heavy metal detox.   Here with us today is a Traditional Naturopathic Doctor and the Owner and Founder of Vibe Wellness, Dr. Stacy Barczak Baker, to talk about protecting yourself from heavy metals and parasites, the dangers of using antibiotics, and your diet. She also shares her health challenges and how she decided to work with her body instead of against it.   Dr. Stacy Barczak Baker, ND, has been in the health and wellness industry for over 10 years now.

This includes looking at the body as one beautiful and synergistic system, which needs to be treated as so, focusing on the mind, body, and spirit connecting to achieve the highest form of health imaginable.   ​Dr. Stacy currently holds a Doctorate in Traditional Naturopathy, a Master's of Science in Holistic Nutrition, a Level 2 Integrative Health and several Functional Medicine Certifications, a Functional Medicine Board Certification (AADP), is trained in Vinyasa Yoga, is a certified personal trainer, and is currently expanding her love of learning with the study of energy healing.
