Does anyone know how much mercury you remove with each day of chelation

[Guest guest]

I do rounds of 3 1/2 days at 8 times 50 mgs ALA and 50 mgs DMSA.

Does anyone have a clue how much mercury is being removed?

And. DMSA and ALA remove organic mercury. Is methyl mercury slowly

converted to organic mercury or vice versa? In other words, how do

you get rid of methylmercury?

There is a post from Andy somewhere in autism mercury archives that

helps to show how to calculate this. I can't remember where....

Methyl mercury is organic mercury. DMSA and ALA remove inorganic

mercury. Your body converts organic mercury quite quickly to

inorganic. See the Andy Index...
