Re: Bentonite clay?Poison Ivy

[Guest guest]

Hi Jackie,

Thanks for the input. I will check previous posts. You asked how I

was doing otherwise. I had to stop chelating (Cutler style) in August

when I developed severe contact dermatitis, probably poison ivy. It

went systemic, had to triple HC dose, then became completely

intolerant to HC and had to stop the steroids cold turkey. It is a

lot more complicated than that, but that's the nutshell version. I've

been off line for months because just too ill and am now attempting

to find something to help absorb the toxins, as well as thallium, in

my gut. The " poison ivy " has thrown many of my body systems into

hyper mode and the most innocuous thing I can think of to get back on

track is an adsorbing agent which I am supposed to be taking anyway

because of the thallium. Then I will try some digestive enzymes, but

previous experience with these tells me I need something to absorb

the toxins released by the enzymes or I will just be more toxic. My

MCS is more severe now than it's been in a while. I am just trying to

get back on track, so that I can get back to chelation. Tried ALA at

6mg, but so toxic right now that it was a disaster.

Any other suggestions are welcome.

Thanks,

Gladioli

probably vary depending on the source, so you would have to check out

the brand you are considering using. I have never used it, so I

can't make any recommendations. My understanding also is that it

only absorbs things in the gut, so stays in the GI tract, and is not

considered a chelator at all. You can search past posts in this

group and Adult-Metal-Chelation and Autism-Mercury to learn more.-----
