Guest guest Posted September 25, 2010 Report Share Posted September 25, 2010 I don't know how far you are from the nearest larger city, but consider buying your drinking water, delivered in glass bottles --not plastic. but as far as I know, the only real way to get these toxins out is reverse osmosis. It sure would be nice if humanity would stop shooting itself in the foot, wouldn't it? Humanity went looking for an easier way to do everything, and wound up creating things that will cause its extinction, if it doesn't wise up soon.

Thank you all for your support and help From: kbverrill99 <kristin.verrill@...> Subject: [ ] Re: New and needing advise Date: Sunday, 26 September, 2010, 2:42 Â Thanks for your ideas everybody. No recent dental work or vaccine. We've tried zinc and it really had no effect on the pica. It would be worth another try, maybe at a higher dose this time. I'm looking at a chart in Judy Converse's book that says pica can be cause by toxic levels of lead or mercury. If he can't stop chewing, we may have to give him chewing gum...which is not SCD legal. But really, a negative gut reaction is better than mercury.

That could put mercury in his system. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 26, 2010 Report Share Posted September 26, 2010 Unfortunately, there are many sources of mercury in our environment. If there are any concrete plants near you --even in your county, this contributes to airborne mercury. I tried to show a research paper to some in our town that was done, as we have two concrete manufacturing plants in our county. the number of cases of autism have risen in our county exponentially with the rise of mercury emissions in the air. Mercury is not the only contaminant you have to worry about from sung well water for drinking and cooking. Lead is always a problem, and the condition I mention before is described below. This can happen when using well water for making up formula. It comes from the nitrates in synthetic fertilizers leeching into the well water. The result of methemoglobinemia is that oxygen delivery to tissues is impaired and the oxygen hemoglobin dissociation curve shifts to the left. Organs with high oxygen demands (ie, CNS, cardiovascular system) usually are the first systems to manifest toxicity. Oxygenated blood is red, deoxygenated blood is blue, and blood-containing methemoglobin is a dark reddish brown color. This dark hue imparts clinical cyanosis when methemoglobin levels are at 1.5 g/dL (approximately 10-15% methemoglobin concentration); however, a level of 5 g/dL of deoxygenated blood is required for similar effects. Therefore, when methemoglobin levels are relatively low, cyanosis may be observed without cardiopulmonary symptoms. Treatment A medicine called methylene blue is used to treat persons with severe methemoglobinemia. Note: Methylene blue may be dangerous in patients who have or may be at risk for a blood disease called G6PD deficiency<http://health.nytimes.com/health/guides/disease/glucose-6-phosphate-d\ ehydrogenase-deficiency/overview.html>, and should not be used. If you or your child has G6PD deficiency, always tell your health care provider before receiving treatment. Ascorbic acid<http://health.nytimes.com/health/guides/nutrition/vitamin-c/overview.html>m\ ay also be used to reduce the level of methemoglobin. Alternative treatments include hyperbaric oxygen therapy and exchange transfusions<http://health.nytimes.com/health/guides/surgery/exchange-transfusio\ n/overview.html> .. In most cases of mild acquired methemoglobinemia, no treatment is required. However, you should avoid the medicine or chemical that caused the problem. Severe cases may need treatment, such as a blood transfusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
