Think careful of what the actual mechanism must be for a chemical, any chemical

you orally consume, to reach the oral cavity, at what reduced

concentration, either

via saliva or to the roots of the tooth, the interior of the tooth,

where it can not reach

the amalgam material, which is on the outside of the tooth, not the

inside. Thus,

only the ALA and it's by products are in the saliva, likely at

1/1000th the blood concentration,

which is at least 1/1000th the orally consumed amount (much of any

supplement is

destroyed by the stomach acid, bile, HCl, hydrochloride acid, very

strong, at a pH of

3 to 2 (2 is stronger). The ALA in the saliva must then pass through

the fat coating

of the teeth, that adheres to enamel, oh, the amalgam material likely

does not get

a fat coating, so this weak ALA saliva solution must then rest

against the amalgam

surface, to act upon it, and likely only 1/1000th of the ALA

molecules in the saliva

likely do that. So, the ALA is reduced to 1,000,000,000th the oral

value, and only

for a while, for several hours (that is if ALA does enter the saliva

gland and is released

by the gland into the mouth)...

Given all this ... I'd evaluate the statement of " ALA leaches amalgam

mercury " as

being not just weak, in need of scientific backing, in terms of

measuring the ALA

in the saliva, and any increase in mercury in the saliva... that's my opinion.

Ok, that evaluation done, my opinion stated, you ought to go back to

these doctors,

and ask for their source(s) of information, so you may have your

" scientific consultant " (me)

confirm the validity of the source(s), so you may act with certitude,

not what appears to be

anecdotal.

Shoe on the other foot?

>and if you are not detoxing well the mercury will build up.

What I see here is a statement of " if " , the " What if ... " game.

Nothing definitive. Nothing scientific. Nothing medically valid... or is it?

It's a clear attempt to sow fear, uncertainty and doubt.

That for sure is medically an incorrect bedside manner.

At a minimum. At it's worse, it medical malpractice.

In either case, or anywhere in between, it's incomplete information.

Not enough knowledge. Without any proof. Just mere layman opinion,

from a " doctor " who has no knowledge of oral cavity chemistry... right?

>It makes sense to me.

They made it sound good. Thus, it's dangerous, and imho, the doctor

is dangerous,

perhaps just in this one area, where they did not know they were out

of their depth?

>doctors to agree on anything. D

And that is why I posted this info. Print out this email, and have

the good doctors read it.

Get back to us with their " reply " , or lack of one, as many doctors

are 'silent', like most

people, when their verbal statements are responded to with reasonable

questions,

that leave them wondering how they could not have thought of these

points themselves,

before they spoke. Hmm, put this paragraph first so the good doctor

reads it first.

It should " lighten " the blow to their egos.

Let us know. Also, I'm interested in feedback.

BTW, there are scientific studies on the amount of fluoride present

in saliva from

water fluoridation, and how long fluoridated toothpaste is in contact

with teeth

enamel, if that time is enough for the toothpaste fluoride to

crystallize the enamel.

Both studies indicate that fluoride so applied is ineffective, and

only in the dentist

chair, where extremely concentrated fluoride is applied directly to

the teeth, for tens

of minutes, can there be any absorption.

That all said, think again about any chemical you orally consume, or

do not consume

(distilled water without minerals) doing any " leaching " anywhere in

the body. It has

to " reach " the organ, in some minimum concentration, and be in

contact for some time.
