This looks like a good resource for metals testing!

MELISA® is a revolutionary medical test which can

detect hypersensitivity to metals in dental

restorations or bodily implants. MELISA® has allowed

thousands of patients worldwide to see whether their

chronic fatigue, or other autoimmune conditions, is

caused by metal allergy.

MELISA® tests for allergy to metals such as mercury,

nickel and titanium, and measures the severity of the

reaction. Once it pinpoints the source of the

reaction, the patient can avoid exposure or remove the

metallic implant. This may involve replacing amalgam

fillings with a white ceramic substitute. In many

countries, a MELISA® test will release health

insurance funds for this operation.

Samples for testing can be sent to specialist

laboratories all over the world and the results are

returned in a week. In tests, 76% of Chronic Fatigue

Patients who tested positive and removed the offending

metal reported sustained health improvement.

Nickel, present in jewelry, wristwatches, stainless

steel and food stuff is the most common

allergy-inducing metal and studies show nickel allergy

can be a risk factor in patients with chronic fatigue.

Mercury is also a common cause of metal allergy and

the main exposure comes from amalgam fillings and

fish. A recent study showed that 70% of patients with

allergy to mercury and autoimmune disease, such as

multiple sclerosis, will improve if they remove their

amalgam fillings.

Allergy to titanium is not widely recognized by

medical doctors, it is frequently diagnosed by

MELISA®. Many patients report side-effects from

titanium implants and the MELISA® test frequently

diagnoses this condition.

The MELISA Medica Foundation is now working on a

potential breakthrough in understanding Multiple

Sclerosis. The research conducted so far indicates

that MS patients are three times as likely to suffer

from metal-induced inflammation - the condition

detected by MELISA®. Initial results suggest that some

MS patients can halt the progression of the disease if

they remove the offending metal.
