Josh, founder of the “The Detox Dudes,” holds nothing back in this episode as we talk about all things detoxification. We cover: colon cleansing, charcoal, avoidance diets, spring versus distilled water, sunlight, and dozens of tips Josh learned in his 4 year journey detoxing from severe mercury poisoning. Josh tells us he’s, “Certain that heavy metal toxicity and parasites are responsible for the massive scale of loneliness, depression, hunger, war, and violence we endure today.” While the idea of detoxing our bodies and our homes can be overwhelming, Josh breaks down the most important action steps he suggests we take. There are lots of gold nuggets about how to best heal our digestive tract (and colon!) in this uncensored episode.

Josh Macin – “This detox program feels like I am sitting on a pot of gold. Like I’m holding a universal secret and it wants to explode out of me. This universal secret has been a cumulative effort of my own three years of forced schooling, working directly with pioneers in the health world, and from the countless hours studying the public work of several different world-class detox doctors. The amount of cumulative suffering that went into this program is probably equivalent to that of a small impoverished country. The amount of time deciphering the truth runs into hundreds of thousands of hours, and the amount of money spent is well into the millions. Through everything, I have learned that detox is more of an art than a science.”

I connected with Josh through a mutual friend. After checking out his website and Youtube channel, I knew immediately that his story needed to be shared. Today, Josh shares how he went from competing in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, winning world championships, to a state of extreme physical pain and suicidal thoughts in the span of only two weeks. After trying all traditional psychotherapies, with extreme physical pain and inflammation all over his body, Josh traveled deep into the Amazon to explore other realms via plant medicines – hoping for a miracle cure. Unraveling the mystery behind his sudden illness will have you at the edge of your chair. Don’t miss this powerful story!
