Re: Gilbert's Syndrome question/ALA more tolerated than DMSA ?

[Guest guest]

dmsa with ala is more tolerated. DMSA will help alleviate the symptoms

of using ala. Make sure b vites are yeast free, this is often the

reason they cause problems. (may not pertain to Gilbert's but a thought)

Something I noticed of interest in reading the Gilberts website..the

symptoms are remarkable the same as mercury poisoning....

It may be a legitimate genetic issue that helped you accumulate mercury more

easily than

most people, or it may be a misdiagnosis of mercury problems. It is uncommon

for

females with the syndrome to be symptomatic, males are slammed a lot harder

since it is

X liniked.

If you really have the genetic syndrome your entire family should have a history

of

elevated bilirubin on standard blood chemistry testing.
