A friend of mine said that if someone was not mercury poisoned, they

would not have a reaction to DMSA and ALA. Is that true?

----------Yes, I believe this also, and Andy has said that a reaction to a

trial of chelation is confirmation of toxicity (and this is used in cases when a

hair test isn't clear or definitive). The only other consideration would be

the possibility of other metals. i.e. with DMSA, if someone had lead and not

mercury, they might still react because DMSA pulls lead, and with ALA, it pulls

arsenic besides mercury.---------Jackie
