I chelate with ALA now. DMSA tends to give me the feeling it is 'burning' my gut. ALA is likely to give you more side-effects and DMSA helps a lot with it. You'll need to see if you can chelate with ALA on its own. Just use a low enough dose that you feel good while you chelate. > I've also noticed that after a round of chelation sometimes it feels > like I'm coming down with something like a virus.

I would say this is due to the adrenal stress chelation causes. Do you take Hydrocortisone (HC) or Adrenal Cortical Extract (ACE)?

When I was chelating with DMSA alone and no adrenal support, I used to get sick frequently after rounds also. But now with adrenal support and lots of immune boosters, this doesn't happen any more.-----------Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
