Guest guest Posted October 15, 2000 Report Share Posted October 15, 2000 Dear Roe, Maybe if you complete the chelation for mercury/lead first your son will then be able to tolerate the malic acid chelation? Each time you successfully remove a toxin I would imagine the body would be more forgiving of or less overwhelmed by others (?). Otherwise, how will the aluminum be gotten rid of? We certainly don't want that in their systems! Is there another means of chelating it?

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2000 Report Share Posted October 15, 2000 Roe, Both of my sons showed high aluminum and they reacted similarly to the malic acid at first. I lowered the dosage and then increased it gradually, and they didn't have any more symptoms. I recently started taking it myself and if I take too much I get a bad headache. But in general, I feel much better. Kathy [ ] Malic Acid > > > > > > ><<Either you're having an allergic reaction or releasing some metals and having >a healing crisis of sorts.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2000 Report Share Posted October 15, 2000 So how much did you have to decrease the dose before it didn't cause problems? (and how young is your child? bodyweight?) thank you! My daughter had elevated aluminum and so I will be wanting to use this in the future once we've tackled the mercury/lead.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2000 Report Share Posted October 15, 2000 Malic acid is supposed to chelate aluminum and I found most of my info by searching the archives. We use Ethical Nutrients brand, which comes in 300 mg tablets. My son is 3.4 and weighs 45 lbs. He tolerated 100 mg once a day, and now he takes 100 mg twice a day. When we started with 200 mg at once he seemed to become irritable. Kathy Re: [ ] Malic Acid >So how much did you have to decrease the dose before it didn't cause >problems?

I read this in an NIH study done in 1998 but later removed from the NIH web site. Anita must have called the NIH to complain.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2001 Report Share Posted February 27, 2001 , To remove aluminum. Also apple pectin...both available in health food stores.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 Huh!No, I don't, but I imagine it would be similar to, oh, say, someone being allergic to tomatoes - can they still take lycopene as a supplement? I think it is so far removed from the entirity that an allergy may not pertain.But DO check it out first! What the heck do *I* know? Except that as far as injuries go (and no - this hasn't fixed my shoulder - YET...!), I do remind myself several times a day that the body renews itself constantly, so that every 11 months or so we have ALL NEW cells.Something to keep in mind. Literally.Ev"A hundred million miracles are happening every day!" Do you know if someone who is allergic to apples can use it? I will be doing some research. Would love to get back to my normal limited mobility due to known injuries versus where I am now. Thanks, Sheila Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 YES.. If you are allergic to apples, you may very well be allergic to MA Consult your dr, naturopath, etc before... depending on the severety of your allergy..it could be a bad thing.
