This is a very bad idea.

First, and most important, ALA must be given every 3 hours or

more often. Otherwise, it will cause redistribution of mercury

and more damage.

There are other potentially harmful ingredients, such as sodium

selenite, garlic, MSM, carrageenan, methionine.

Even the potentially good stuff is needed by different people

in different quantities and the amounts given in this product

are not one-size-fits-all. Many of us, even if we need a supplement,

may not tolerate it at first.

It is recommended to try new things in isolation. If you have

a problem, then you know what is the source of the problem.

TK--- You can not use any product with ALA in it except on a 3hr

dosing schedule. ALA - alpha Lipoic Acid is the chelator of choice

here for removing intracellular Hg. The algae is not recommended

either.
