. Re: Metals detox (was Spring/fall flare)

April 5, 2012

Hi Barbara,

Wow--I'm glad you're feeling better! Perhaps your herx is over ...

Just Tuesday I answered Fifi about my metals-detox protocol. I take very small

amounts because I'm quite small (like you--under 110#) and also quite sensitive.

The doses may be different for you. But I'll copy and paste:

Hi Fifi,

I am also a fan of Cutler. After having a bad experience with my initial

mercury detox protocol (before I was diagnosed with LD), I really wanted as mild

a detox experience as possible. I studied Cutler carefully, and chose

molybdenum (250mcg) as my main metals-detox protocol. I gradually worked up to

6 daily, between meals, and my yearly hair sample has never shown high

molybdenum, so most of it is binding with toxins. But neither of my doctors was

satisfied with that, so I got prescriptions for compounded ALA (40mg, 2-4

without food) and NAC (100mg once daily with food). I agreed to take DMPS (10mg

twice daily with food) for 4-5 days a month--away from the perigee (when the

moon is closest to earth) several months out of the year (not every month), at

which time I also took my maximum ALA & NAC.

At the time of my last hair sample, I agreed also to do a DMPS IV " challenge

test " which I had been avoiding. Both my hair sample and urine test results

came back with NO mercury. So that method did work for me. Of course, as more

LD is killed off, there will probably also be more mercury released into my

system. So I have continued with the molybdenum, ALA & NAC, but I have not

repeated the DMPS.

You might be big enough to take conventional amounts of these supplements, which

is cheaper than custom-made compounds. Another reason for compounds is to avoid

allergens like " modified food starch " which are in everything.

So my metal-detox protocol is constant, except for the strong stuff.
