Why do some parents think that they need to do an at home vaccine detox on their kids?
The usual suspects…
What Are My Home Vaccine Detox Options?
Anti-vax folks push doing an at home vaccine detox because the idea that there are toxins in vaccines is one of their theories for how vaccines are responsible for a whole slew of vaccine injuries.
“Everyone who has had a vaccine needs a vaccine detox to support the body and its best function. It takes time to undo years of toxic build-up. Every individual is different, so that is why we always recommend consulting a proficient practitioner who will test to find out how your body is functioning.”
Mitch Sutton – Chiropractor
Sure, they typically try and scare you into skipping or delaying getting your kids vaccinated in the first place. But if you did get your kids vaccinated and protected, they will then try and sell you a vaccine detox because they think vaccines are inherently toxic and always cause damage.
Not surprisingly, that vaccines are safe, with few risks, and do not contain toxic ingredients doesn’t stop them from pushing and selling these home vaccine detox products!
Detox products that contain some of the very same metals that they warn folks about!
Fortunately, these types of detox sprays are probably not dangerous.
“There’s absolutely no evidence that these remedies do anything, besides erode people’s trust in vaccines.”

More Home Vaccine Detox Options
What else do anti-vaccine influencers push/sell for a home vaccine detox?
Not all of which are as safe or as harmless as you might like to think they are…
- activated charcoal – while this is actually a treatment for people who ingest certain drugs and toxins, it doesn’t make it to your blood stream, so isn’t going to bind heavy metals in your blood after getting a vaccine and of course, isn’t necessary anyway
- bentonite clay – surprisingly, like zeolite, bentonite clay is also made with, you guessed it, aluminum! You can make it into a paste and and use it externally or eat it. Unfortunately, bentonite can be naturally contaminated with arsenic and lead. Bentonite may also contain “variable amounts of respirable crystalline silica, a recognized human carcinogen.”
- home vaccine detox bath – Carrie Madej has a home vaccine detox bath recipe using bentonite clay, baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), and Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) to get the radiation and poisons out of COVID vaccines. Adding a cup of borax (anhydrous borate of sodium) will even remove the nanobots in the vaccines!
- chelation – chelation therapy has some real medical uses – like to treat lead, iron, and mercury poisoning, etc. Chelation can not treat autism and it is a dangerous thing to try.
- NAC – N-acetylcysteine (NAC) is a great treatment – for acetaminophen overdoses. It is not going to help as a COVID treatment or as a vaccine detox.
- iodine
- CoQ-10 – our bodies make coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and you probably don’t need more
- Nattokinase – anti-vax folks are pushing/selling this as a way to dissolve spike proteins after getting a COVID-19 vaccine…
- cupping – cupping does not draw toxins out of your body. It just leaves you with large bruises so that everyone knows you wasted money on a cupping session.
- a snake bite kit – and hopefully you aren’t trying to just suck out the toxins yourself!
- a parasite kit – unless you have specific symptoms, you don’t need a parasite cleanse as part of your detox routine and again, you likely don’t need a detox routine
- infrared saunas – you can’t sweat out toxins, especially toxins that weren’t there in the first place
- salt caves – fighting toxins by breathing in tiny salt particles (halotherapy) that might be contaminated with bacteria or fungal particles if the room isn’t well maintained?
- cryotherapy – it might work to treat warts, but cryotherapy – whole body cryotherapy – doesn’t get rid of toxins in your body
- detox patches – can putting detox patches on your feet draw out toxins? No, they can’t. They just draw money out of your bank account…
Actually, if you believe in or have purchased one or more of these detox products, maybe you just need a new detox routine.
