I would think if it makes you feel better than continue doing it. You'll know if you're redistributing mercury because of the symptoms. imh.

Val ======================== I agree with Val, and can attest to some of this. When I way over-did-it this spring shoveling snow, I felt fine while I was doing it, but felt " horrible " for weeks afterwards, so I know it redistributed metals. So you will know if you are doing the right amount or not, based on how you feel. But I agree that moderation is the key, and is best not to push it too much during chelation, and Andy does mention this in AI. Also, there seems to be some relation to this as far as what your sodium and potassium levels are compared to your calcium and magnesium levels on your hair test. Cutler talks about this on page 114 of HTI, and says that, " Exercise is helpful for people with elevation of calcium and magnesium relative to sodium and potassium " and " not too good idea except in small and carefully measured amounts for people with the opposite pattern of low calcium and magnesium compared versus high sodium and potassium " . So this has to do with adrenal function and the difference in these two patterns, and this holds true for me. I have the low cal and mag and higher pot and sodium, and too much exercise is not good for me, unfortunately. So the amount of exercise that is good for you and is tolerable will vary by person, and there is no one-size-fits-all answer to this.--------Jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
