My husband and I have been reading up on this (I'm no doctor but this

is our interpretation of what we have read) and it seems that there is

mercury and lead all around us in the soil in certain plastics, in

paint, etc . Most people produce enough glutathione in their bodies to

help remove it from their systems but many of our children don't make

enough so the mercury stays in their systems and causes damage. There

are also several foods that contain MSG or high glutamic acid (peas,

tomatoes, canned goods, etc) that prevent your body from creating the

necessary glutathione. Our DAN! doctor always puts glutathione in the

EDTA IVs for Marcus so that's what lead us to try and find more info.

According to what we've read Taurine is very important for the body to

create glutathione (many of our kids are deficient in this) so we are

starting our son on it. I'll let you know if it helps. Here's a link

that might prove useful. I found it quite interesting.
