In reply to Re: Consider Mercury toxicity....Really!, posted by linkadge on January 17, 2008, at 23:18:04
Sent this info to my daughter who has MCS (Multiple Chemical Sensitivities). She is part of an online support group for it & they're aware of how bad mercury is for us.
Here are her comments:
yes, I find this kind of stuff very interesting but I admit I don't read too much of it because I still have mercury in my mouth so any kind of chelation is not safe at all.
plus, one can get WAY sicker via chelation. out of all the folks I know who used either synthetic or natural chelators, almost all of them got worse and not better.
but a few did get better.
for me it isn't worth the risk at this time - especially with mercury in my mouth still - some of these things can actually pull mercury out of your fillings and into your body.
if you do not have your system in absolutely excellent shape, your body is not able to actually excrete the mercury that is drawn out and then you can end up with much more damage than before.
this can happen even if you have all your fillings replaced first.
I wonder instead if someone was very worried about heavy metals and testing showed it really was an issue, if it might not be safer to go to a really good homeopath and see if they can do it homeopathically somehow?
I don't know much about it.(Kath's note - if anyone is considering having their mercury tooth fillings removed, it's really important to go to a dentist specially trained to do it, with proper ventilation, etc, as mercury vapours can also effect us.)
