Re: symptoms of chelation metal taste?

[Guest guest]

Hi Robin

Aha!! This is reassuring! I myself and someone else I know of have

had constant metal mouth for about six months. My amalgams were

removed 18 months ago, and I started chelating in earnest 7 months

ago. After waxing and waning for a few months, the metal mouth

arrived permanently about 4 months ago. It gets better on round,

worse off.

I know that the other person has had a panoramic X-ray to check for

residual amalgam - there was none. I have had two, very thorough

dentists remove my fillings and place composites, and I do not

believe they left any amalgam. All crowns were treated.

For myself, the metal taste has coincided with slowly feeling

better. For me, there are a couple of possible scenarios:

I had retention toxicity due to the high level of mercury in my

body. Over time after amalgam removal, the damn slowly unblocked and

my body is now shifting the mercury.

Chelation has been likened to stirring up a muddy pond. So dragging

the mercury out is actually raising the amount of mercury swishing

around in my body, causing the metal taste.

My body is now so sensitive to this stuff that it reacts to the

slightest amount wandering around.

It's probably a bit of all of the above.

These are my theories anyway. I am pretty ure that there is no

amalgam left. I have a small question mark over my new fillings, but

these were tested prior to placement. I know that other mineral

deficiencies or excesses can cause metallic taste, so I have just

ordered another hair analysis for further clues.

Though it is still unpleasant, and spoils the taste of food, my metal

mouth seems to be getting slightly better. No such a strong taste,

not such burning saliva. Best of all after a round.

Nice to know we're not totally alone!...

Best

---Yes it probably is still chelating- see the file section for this

group. There is info about Saunas. Andy supports saunas as long as

they are not the infra red kind. Also do a search on sauna in this

group and there is more info. --------
