RE: Frannie...kombu

[Guest guest]

Frannie,

Yes, that is why I am going to use it. I am mercury toxic and I think that

is partly why my current kombu helps my thyroid and other issues because in

addition to the iodine I need it chelates out some mercury. The first time I

bought it I was suffering from a really bad respiratory and throat infection

where I completely lost my voice. I think part of it was also due to toxic

mold exposure. Anyway, I kept getting sicker and could not shake it but

didn't have medical insurance. The day my kombu arrived I ate a bunch of big

strips. This was two weeks into the infection and I was bed ridden most of

the day. Well, my voice came back within 24 hours and after a few days, the

infection was completely gone. So, I think it works for a lot more than

thyroid and mercury poisoning. It also contains sea minerals which help the

adrenals.

I first learned of it from a conversation with my neurologist that led me to

do some research and end up with kombu. In WWII when the US bombed the

Japanese in Hiroshima, there were incidences of hospital staffs taking large

quantities of kombu and they did not suffer the radiation poisoning that

others died of. I found out that kombu has been the only thing proven to

chelate Strontium 90 which is a radioactive isotope and one of the worst

ones humans can be exposed to. I have had the two worst exposures! Strontium

90 uptakes in the body like calcium and goes into the bones because the body

thinks it is calcium. I have had a lot of radiation exposure so that is

partly why I got it. The added benefits I just discovered by accident and

then it turns out a lot of other people have discovered it too. I have

talked to some war vets that are using it to get uranium and other things

out of their bodies and they say it seems to help.

I am not sure if the pill form (Modifilan) will work or if I will need more

of a quantity (they are supposed to be concentrated) but I am going to give

it a try to help with my mercury until I can get my teeth fixed. All the

other chelating agents I cannot use while the mercury is still in the mouth

so if this works it will be a great interim solution. I cannot praise kombu

enough. It is pretty bland tasting but cooking it with foods you really

don't taste it all.

If you get kombu, make sure it is kombu and not kelp. Kombu is dark brown

when held up to light and kelp is green. They tend to use the terms

interchangeably when marketing kelp. Kelp is good but kombu is much, much

better. The official name is Laminaria japonica.

Thanks so much for that explanation. I thought the Kombucha was fungal in

nature. I don't need that either.

So scratch that question. I have heard of Modifilin being very good for

Mercury detox, which I have also

been diagnosed with.

Cheri,

It is not fun having metal exposures, but I think that may be what started my

endocrine issues. I had 13 Amalgams, and became

deathly ill from chelation when they were still in. Duh! Doctor. I have since

had my fillings removed, but I think the chelation pulled

it into the tissues. I know of a gentleman on the mercury list I have been on

for years who said the Modinfilin really helped him. I just

found a jar in the supplement stash I haven't tried so I will try that before I

go on the Kombu search. It suggest taking it in the morning,

wondering why?

Do you think Strontium is in the RAI Cocktail they give to treat Graves Disease?

I have also had numerous x-rays.

This is great information. Thanks so much.
