At one time I thought perhaps the amount of mercury in seafood was negligible enough considering many of us already have it lodging in our teeth. However, my mother's blood pressure shot up one time without any seeming cause and she went to the doctor I mentioned before, who said it was a result of mercury in her system. Turns out it had come from a can of sardines she had eaten the day before. Once that was chelated from her system, her BP went back down. Ever since then I have avoided all seafood. I already have some amalgam fillings (as does my mother BTW) and don't want to add any more to my system than is there already! ~ Fern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Applied kinesiology is not a scientific test and has no physical basis or evidence to support it. It is a variation on dowsing with a pendulum or other " energy-based " (non-physical energy) psychic phenomena.) Marty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
