Not that I am aware of.

The other big important property of ALA is that it is a powerful

antioxidant. That function of ALA should help people to feel better

(once they chelate enough metals out).

It would be difficult to find a person who had no heavy metals in

their body. If there are such people then they wouldn't notice

anything from taking ALA every 3-4 h, or it might make them feel

better in general.

Who on this planet has not had Hg exposure? It's in the air, the

water...vaccines, fillings, in their mother who carried them for 9

months..in fish...some things like optical solution used to have it,

the list is endless really...

who has not broken a fluorescent bulb?

Essentially, if they reacted to it...they have a mercury problem they

are unaware of. ALA is normally used as an antioxidant...so you should

feel good taking it..unless you have mercury. So if there was no

mercury, they should not feel anything but better taking it.
