I also said that Andy has posted on both subjects and that his posts

can be found using the search engine at www.onibasu.com It is up to

you to decide whether or not you want to do that - I don't have time

to do it for you. I have read the posts from Andy, they are worth

searching for and reading, plus I have researched the topics for myself.

I know that MMS and iodine are not going to help, I have spent time in

the past reading about it. It's not my job to convince anyone. It is

my job (as one of the moderators here) to point out that both are not

part of the protocol of this group. This group was set up for people

who have already decided that they want to chelate using Andy Cutler's

protocol. In this group we don't debate things that are not part of

protocol - it's a waste of everyone's time.

I just want to send a word of caution. I've seen two common ways of

appoaching detoxification improperly. One, is to freeze and try nothing

at all. Some of us get lost in this place where we can't figure out

what's right and what's not - and so we obsessively go over details, but

never take the first step. The other, is to uncritically try one thing

after another; sometimes never even staying with one thing long enough

to evaluate whether or not it's helping or hurting. It can be difficult

to find that pace in between, where we keep our critical mindedness, but

remain open to trying something and sticking with it for long enough to

see what it's doing. This is particularly important for us, because we

_have_ to do something, but on the other hand, if we do the wrong thing

we could damage ourselves more. Remember, we are moving substances that

destroy nervous tissue - that's your brain. Do it wrong and you're SOL.

So, I'd suggest your going and having a look at various perspectives on

detox. Bring questions on ALA/DMSA/DMPS chelation here and read the

archives - see if you can dig up sensible answers. See what we have to

say about MSM/Iodine and try to understand if it makes sense.

Remember, it's not about the person who says it, thought you do want to

see if you can evaluate their critical capacities and their willingness

to share information, in the end it's about whether or not what they are

saying appears to make sense to you or not.

Now, what I'd say is that neither NaClO_2 nor iodine are going to bind

to mercury and make a water soluble product that will allow your

bloodstream to carry it to the liver/kidneys for removal - that's what a

chelator does. The reason chelators need to have sulfur complexes is

that SH groups, known as " mercaptains " for " mercury capture " , bind

strongly to mercury. So, MMS is not a possibility.

I'll also point out that Andy and Jim Humble are far from the same.

First of all, Humble's selling a " miracle solution " , and a " magic " one

at that - and I tell you, anyone who wants to sell me a magic miracle, I

want to avoid like the plague. Secondly, Andy's a chemist.

Dave.

I know what the group is about, im sorry for not keeping on topic of

the group i just wanted help and advice.

I dont know how much longer i can live like this, i just want to do

more and more things to help me get better, even if it means taking

things not on the protocol but that could help! Alls im living on

is eggs and rice cakes, and your not supposed to eat many eggs

because of the sulphur...
