This should answer Helen's inquiry about chelation. SCD CHELATES! Att: Dr. Merigian, Dear Dr. Merigian, I have just heard from Shirley , whose husband is suffering from heavy metal toxity, that you are aware of my work and are recommending The Specific Carbohydrate Diet in cases of heavy metal toxicity. I am thrilled out of my mind! Perhaps you may not know that Dr. Sidney Valentine Haas, the originator of The Specific Carbohydrate Diet published papers in the early 1900's (I think about 1930-1940) reporting that he was treating lead toxicity in painters with atropine sulphate and, I believe, this diet (I am not positive about the latter.) This is especially noteworthy because the SCD is being used successfully in treating children suffering with autism and who, it is believed, are also showing abnormally high levels of mercury, etc. Many of these children are making outstanding recoveries on SCD. The intriguing interaction of mercury toxicity, bowel problems, and the SCD must be, in my opinion, investigated more closely. It is so very gratifying to hear that you expect a favorable prognosis of Mr. 's serious problems. Thank you for your recognition of this marvelous diet therapy and its ability to slowly, but surely, detoxify the liver. And, incidentally, there have been cases of people with inflammatory bowel disease with serious liver complications who have recovered from both after using SCD. One child, waiting for a liver transplant, did not need it after a short time on SCD. With much appreciation, Sincerely, Elaine Gottschall Posted by: Carol F.
