ALA chelation possibly dangeroues?

[Guest guest]

Got two issues concerning ala alone chelation:

1)Let's assume that one has to use ALA alone (the cutler way) for

mercury detox cause they cant handle dmsa or use dmps for some reason

and that it's been at least 6 months post removal. Now given the fact

that one can have a high body burden isn't it danegroues to use ALA

for possible gettin more emrcury ino the brain? yeah the blood levels

can still be low, but it never made sense to me, cause ala is not

selective, it will pick up mercury everywhere in the body and as long

as it's in the blood it will carry it across the blood brain barrier

and then dump it in the brain at the end of the round. So let's say

70% of mercury is body burden 30% is brain, so when using ala can that

get all mixed up? (like 40% brain 60% body though of course overall

less mercury cause you're chelating).

And even if not, if u have high body burden and chelate with ALA

solely u still need to use dozens of rounds to get better, and along

the way it's dozens of brain mercury redistribution (each one for the

end of each round) and that in itself seems dangerous (cause each time

mercury settles in brain it will cause damage). Of course the closer

you are to the end of chelation process the less emrcury will settle,

but tat's the end phase of chelation, but in the starting phase there

will be a lot of it cause you have high body burden.

Of course the ideal situation would be getting the body burden down

first with dmps/dmsa, but as I said, what if some people cant use those.

2) the ALA-Hg chelate is as andy says mainly metabolised throught the

bile pathway, so most of the ala chelated mercury ends up in the

digestive track and toxins are known to easily get reabsorbed from the

digestive track unless removed quickly, so would that be

counterproductive in many cases , and would there be a danger of

mercury brain redistribution since it's an ALA-Hg-chelate that can

easily crosses the BBB (...or doesnt?)

TK--- start with low doses and do longer rounds if possible to

prevent redistribution.

Now given the fact

TK--- It is better to reduce body burden as it can reduce side

effects but not always necessary especially after 3 months.

yeah the blood levels

TK--- if you use the protocol correctly only a small amount is

redistributed at the end of a round and this amount is redistributed

everywhere not just back to your brain, if at all back to it, as it

attaches back to whatever sites it is near.

So let's say

TK--- ALA is the strongest of the chelators and chelates body burden

as well. Unless you are lucky and are not very toxic you will need

many rounds of any of the chelators to get well but only ALA will get

the Hg out of your brain where it screws things up the most.

, and along

TK--- it would be redistributed everywhere not specifically to the

brain, if at all to the brain - none of it may get back there before

it attaches elesewhere first.

and that in itself seems dangerous (cause each time

TK--- Redistribution is minimized if you follow the protocol.

TK--- then they use ALA

TK--- The GI re-absorption of Hg while chelating with ALA is very

very minimal - it does not get re-absorbed easily.

TK--- it wouldn't

, and would there be a danger of

TK--- if you follow the protocol it would be very minimal, the whole

reason for this protocol.
