I was too focused and busy to read in-depth research outside my profession. I accepted information from other professionals at face value. Fifteen years ago the cover-up by the ADA and the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) Dental Division was still in place. In the Summer of 1988, a physician told her audience of 500 doctors that dental amalgam was loaded with mercury, one of the deadliest poisons in existence. They were incredulous. Several physicians replied, “They were glad they did not have mercury in their fillings.” What they were unaware of was that their mercury-silver amalgam fillings contained very little silver, and lots of mercury. These past and present paradigms continue to haunt us as we search for ways to become healthy, and simultaneously alter the paradigms of our medical and dental caretakers. The subtitle for Beating Alzheimer's First Edition, before Avery Publishing adopted it for publication was, "The Case for Unlocking Brain Disease: Alzheimer's to Schizophrenia and other Chronic Diseases." the title meant exactly what it said. The wording "to" rather than "and" within "Alzheimer's to Schizophrenia" was intentionally chosen. The treatment processes that cause AD to fade into the background are not mutually exclusive. These treatment protocols reverse many other mental, neurological and chronic diseases. Medical researchers have recently made a direct cause and effect connection, in animals, linking silver (A.K.A. mercury) dental fillings to AD, ALS, MS and Parkinson's disease. One question often asked is, “How many have recovered?” Knowing that answer is impossible. By the time I finished writing Beating Alzheimer’s three other persons in our hometown regained their short term memory following the identical program that reversed my AD. A daughter of a 93-year-old woman wrote that her mother recovered from AD. The daughter used my book as a guide. I am aware of physicians who use my book to help patients regain their short term memory. Several years ago, a physician reversed his own AD and has returned to full time practice. Two nurses reversed schizophrenia. One nurse told me that he felt like he had recovered from general anesthesia. Occasionally someone tells me that I saved his or her life. They also say years, sometimes ten years, are missing from their lives. Not Everyone Gets Well From a medical viewpoint, the major obstacles are disinformation from neurologists, psychiatrists and dentists. From the patient’s view, make no mistake, reversing AD requires real effort from the patient and willingness of the family to make serious changes in their living environment. The patient must be willing to pay the price: to work at getting well. The patient’s family must be mentally and financially prepared to cover the medical expenses1 and make whatever changes are necessary in the patients living environment, or recovery is impossible. Total expenses usually run from $5,000 to $30,000. In addition, due to cerebral allergic reactions from addictive food allergies there is an inclination for the patient to bend the rules and to their detriment, the patient discovers that they can get by with cheating occasionally. Breaking the rules, even inadvertent exposure to foods, chemicals, pollens, and other cerebral allergy producing substances causes the patient to become depressed, confused and disinhibited. Obnoxious speech or behavior then erodes support from their families, spouses, neighbors and friends. The patient finds him or herself in an untenable position as their life begins to disintegrate around them. Taking Personal Responsibility Every patient that I met who has reversed chronic disease took charge of his or her own health and recovery program. Somewhere along the line they learned how to reach goals and refused to accept their prognosis. When I wrote, Beating Alzheimer’s, I realized that, at the time, there was not enough evidence nor did I have the credentials, specifically to write the medical procedures that reversed my downward spiral of short term memory loss, exhaustion, cantankerous disposition, depression and the early signs of dementia. My lack of sophistication about medical politics and processes led me to assume physicians would rapidly put an end to AD, not to try to put the very physicians who know the most about reversing AD and chronic disease out of business. But that’s what happened. Anyone who challenges a mind set (paradigm) of the medical establishment is asking for trouble, especially if the primary cause of AD is “iatrogenic” disease. A most tragic example of iatrogenic disease occurred in the 1840s. Dr. Ignaz Semmelweis, a Hungarian obstetrician in Vienna, discovered that the reason one out of four mothers all over the world was dying of childbirth fever (Sepsis infection) was because surgeons were not washing their hands before delivery. The medical hierarchy ridiculed Dr. Semmelweis so vehemently he became unbalanced and died in a mental institution. A century and a half later, on July 28, 1992, the New York Times reported, infections acquired by patients in hospitals are the direct or indirect cause of 80,000 U.S. fatalities a year. In many cases simple hand-washing would prevent illness. The Traditional Medical Community Demands Compliance Physicians who earn the highest grades in medical school have the best memories. They are taught to recall highly structured information, not necessarily to think creatively. Above all, the traditional medical community demands compliance. The political and social protocols, the economic power of traditional specialists, the pharmaceutical industry, the standardization of managed care by insurance companies and hospital associations and many other factors, all creates a paradigm where change, creative thinking and less expensive alternative healing methodologies are discouraged, disavowed and overtly and actively suppressed. It appears that the Washington State Dental Quality Assurance Commission (DQAC) behaves like corrupt union officials protecting business. Their tactics are more sophisticated and they act under the guise of public protection and safety, but they are ruthless enforcers of the status-quo. For example, several years ago, the DQAC and ADA did their damnedest to put our mercury-free dentists out of business. It was only the intervention of hundreds of citizens and media exposure that thwarted their ambitions. Confirming the economic undertones of this form of establishment control, there exists what is known as the “Patient Financial Profile.” Every disease generates a certain averaged income to the medical establishment before the patient expires. Nutrition, vitamin and mineral supplementation and alternative treatments dilute the coffers. Mercury Worldwide, conservatively, more than 20 million people have iatrogenic diseases caused by one medical specialty: dentists. The ADA is fighting a rear guard action to keep the public from learning that dentists, by use of mercury-silver amalgam fillings for decades, have poisoned more than 85 per cent of our population. The ADA has covered up its culpability in the same way breast implant and cigarette manufacturers deny disease connection to those products. The ADA and pharmaceutical companies who produce mercury-silver amalgam have enormous economic political power. The ADA uses advertising to “manufacture an image” of concerned professionalism. By stonewalling the mercury-amalgam issue, the public cannot view the opposite face of a one-eyed Jack. Understand, the media is dependent on advertising income, not it’s viewers or readership. Typically over 60 per cent of newspaper space is advertising and managing editors are inclined to protect the newspaper’s revenue source. That is why it is so difficult to get our message to the public. A local television talk-show host jerked the microphone from of my hand the instant I broached the word “dentist” in connection with Alzheimer’s disease. Only one major television exposé about mercury-silver amalgam aired on prime time television in the United States. The CBS 60 Minutes program entitled “Is There Poison In Your Mouth?” was televised December 16, 1990. It was the most heavily viewed program 60 Minutes ever presented. There was another biting exposé about mercury-silver amalgam on English television entitled “The Poison In Your Mouth,” July 11, 1994, by the BBC Panorama investigative team. The dentists in England must have been ashamed to go to work the day after that program was broadcast. For such an important issue to be contained by the ADA in the United States is definite evidence of a cover-up. Three thousand doctors of the Toxicology Society came together at a medical conference in Seattle, Washington, several years ago to condemn mercury-silver amalgam fillings. Their revelations should have made banner front page headlines all around the world. Just three short stories appeared in the Press. A past- president of the Toxicology Society told me that they have known about the toxicity of mercury for years. They teach it to their students. He said, “The use of mercury is an economic political decision. Don’t blame the doctors.” Nevertheless, through our support groups, the internet, word of mouth, and stories in health publications, the public is beginning to learn the truth. Eight per cent of the public is aware of the toxicity of mercury-silver amalgam fillings. If 10 per cent of our citizens become informed, reversing the trend away from mercury-silver amalgam will be unstoppable. The last thing the ADA wants is for an additional two per cent of dental patients to learn that dentists have placed toxic poison in our mouths and have written off those of us who have suffered the consequences as acceptable risk, and covered it up. Potential economic liability to amalgam manufacturers, their distributors, members of state dental boards and the ADA is incalculable. I think from a legal standpoint, the most logical way for the ADA to avoid the largest class action lawsuit ever brought before the courts and its consequences, is to stop using amalgam, tomorrow. The National Institute for Standards and Technology near Washington, D.C., is testing a new dental filling material it will tell the public is an “improvement” to mercury-silver amalgam. There is no reason to search for a replacement for mercury-silver amalgam unless the ADA knows mercury-silver amalgam is as toxic as we have said it is. There is no scientific participation (no physician or toxicologist) in the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) dental division. The whole group is composed of ADA dentists and trade representatives so ADA receives a rubber stamp approval for whatever it wants. The new metal filling material will not be much good either, since Electrolysis in the oral environment of the mouth can produce galvanic electrical current in the brain 10³ times greater than the miliamperage of the brains own circuitry. Galvanic current can interrupt and distort signals to the brain and other Biological Structures causing premature ventricular contractions (PVCs), tachycardia, epilepsy and other imbalances throughout the body. A beehive of electrical energy surges from the teeth and through the jawbone that flows to every major organ in the body. When we stick metal into the electrical circuit within the teeth and jawbone, it is the same as throwing a penny into a computer terminal. The best replacement material for mercury-silver amalgam should produce little, or no galvanic action. http://www.midnightcafe.com/alzh/diagnosis2.html#change email: twarren@...
