An biological expert has said that once ALA and mercury meet in the brain they cannot pass the blood-brain barier together because it has become water-solluable... I dont beleive it since so many people are seeing improvements in the brain area. Any links or thoughts? -----------------I don't understand chemistry, so tend to believe Andy on this stuff, since he has a Phd. I don't have the post number, but I have this written down at home, its Andy's response to this question: " How do we know that ALA crosses the blood/brain barrier? " His answer: " All lipophilic and amphiphilic things do. This is well known. Direct evidence of it is reviewed in the paper by Biewenga which is easy to get an abstract and citation for on PubMed. " I also think he said that ALA is water and fat soluble, and that is why it can cross the blood/brain barrier. I hope you chemistry buffs will correct me, if I have any of this wrong. Hopefully or Andy himself will respond to this, because this is all I know about this. Like I said, chemistry is not my thing.
