Then I started learning about detox. The heat is also good as an artificial fever to discourage pathogens. I've used apple cider vinegar and epson salts for detox (separately). In The Whole Way to Allergy Relief and Prevention, she gives a stern warning about not doing it without a dr's recommendation but other books don't say that. You do have to be careful, since you can detox too fast. I've gotten dizzy a few times. There are some conditions that are made worse by excess heat. Its important to shower before and after to get the skin primed to detox and then to remove all the toxins. Also drink plenty of water. I think it may be bad to take too hot of a bath because of the neurally mediated hypotension. By expanding all the capillaries near the skin, you are drawing more blood away from the interior of the body. On the other hand, maybe the skin gets adequete oxygenation for a change. I guess the thing is to proceed cautiously and see if it helps you. It seems to help me but I have to be careful not to stay too long or use water too hot. It obviously was doing something for you since you were leaving red film. Beverly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 11, 1999 Report Share Posted December 11, 1999 , to chelate mercury from my body, I'm taking chlorella and spirula, and doing a series of dmsa pills (an oral chelating agent), under the direction of my doctor. I find they tire me as mercury comes out of my tissues, so I have to be careful to go slowly. After about 9 months my mercury is lower, but by no means gone. in North Carolina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks >Stania >> About a cup (300 ml) or so. The book says to start at 1/4 cup and work your way up. For epsom salts, it says to start with 1/4 cup and work your way up to 4 cups. I've only used a cup or two of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2000 Report Share Posted July 15, 2000 A MUST READ FOR THOSE WITH AUTISTIC KIDS, SUSPECTED MERCURY, and a KID WHO SEIZES Re: [ ] Re: Mercury DetoxIn a message dated 7/15/00 11:13:13 AM Eastern Daylight Time, Lulu1958@... writes:<< Can you tell me what was abnormal about the eeg that is associated with mercury? My son also has an abnormal eeg. No seizure activity. I was told his eeg was consistent with his autistic diagnosis. Now that really told me a lot huh......thanks>>It may have told you a lot, were there spikes in the occipital lobes, or diffuse slowing of certain waves?Here is an excerpt of what the summary text from her report from the epilepsy center said: " As you can see from the enclosed report, numerous clinical events were observed which consisted of periods in which the patient exhibited various tonic posturing involving the upper extremities that on occasion were associated with vocalization. A second type of clinical event was observed which consisted of prolonged periods of staring in which the patient was unresponsive to verbal stimuli. During both of these types of events, the EEG revealed no epileptiform abnormalities.In addition, the interictal record revealed the presence of diffuse encephalopathy. There was also noted to be frequent spikes emanating over the occipital regions of both hemispheres which would suggest that the area may possess an epileptogenic potential. " Although they have still not sent us the data from this test which we requested several times, after the test, we remember them telling us that the encephalopathy related to a generalized " slowing " of theta waves.In searching the various topics related to: spikes, occipital, slow, theta, waves, diffuse, slowing, speech, delay, disorder, ..., I found only two areas that had any correlation. They were electric shock therapy and mercury poisoning. Neither lead was conclusive, but Minimata Bay had some similarity, as related in a 10 year follow up study of a young boy (the attachment is a medline abstract of the article). Again, the associations were very loose. The boy's alpha waves were the point of the study and we have several times requested the EEG data to verify this but have not yet received it.Note that we were essentially told the same thing as you were. The connection between mercury poisoning and this EEG are not part of diagnostic interpretation.The EEG technicians told me that diffuse slowing (encephalopathy) is observed in people with neurological illness, but they do not know why. But consider Carole that they also do not know what causes most cases of autism!Later I found the study of monkeys poisoned with methyl mercury shows damage targeted to the occipital lobes, which appears to be the case for people with mercury poisoning, and may be why vision is typically affected. I have other references, including a textbook paragraph which I sent to Lyn when she started the list (should be in the archives), the one I attached was in my archives.Joe Marciano------------------------------------------------------------------------To email plain text is conventional, to add graphics is divine.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2001 Report Share Posted November 18, 2001 Though oral EDTA chelation may not remove much (one month perhaps equals one IV chelation treatment due to low absorption of 2 %), one need to keep in mind that EDTA chelates iron ond other fairly well but it chelates mercury poorly. The effective IV mercury chelator is DMPS and it's oral counterpart (DMSA) is also effective. Besides chlorella, chinese parsley (cilantro) is supposedly a good natural mercury chelator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 16, 2002 Report Share Posted February 16, 2002 , >>i also used coffee enemas regularly after mercury extraction << You're the first person I've come across who has thought of this. I just bought a colema board and plan to do some colonics (moderately since I'm working on my flora) when I begin chelating. I've come across a couple good recipes for coffee enemas. I hadn't thought of using those per se. Maybe I will. Do you go through something elaborate when you make the coffee or just brew it (organic) regularly?\ Thanks, Marsha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha Lipoic Acid in " rounds " of three days removes mercury from the brain due to two sulphydryl molecules. All fillings must be out. Having root canals checked is essential.

I hate to see DMPS and DMSA in the same category. From what I've read, if you follow Andy's protocol, you can start with very low doses of DMSA. Hal Huggins (dentist) uses DMSA with a different type of schedule, but still has you start on very low doses. I think people run into trouble with the DMPS challenge (I.V.). There is probably no good reason to take any metal chelator via I.V. Most experts say to avoid DMPS. Many use DMSA, but starting with a small dose. It's pretty confusing. None of us want to end up sicker than we started. Marsha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2005 Report Share Posted June 11, 2005 While detoxing for mercury, a person will probably have to take extra zinc because zinc will also be pulled out of the body along with the other heavy metals.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2005 Report Share Posted June 11, 2005 Agreement is, this has been such a tough one for me as well, and I remember loosing some old mercury after running the TMJ program on myself for too long, and was in a stupor on my couch for 3 days wondering if I was ever going to be normal again. Have you tried NDF plus? That one seems the safest for those with amalgams still in their mouth. I also took another product prescribed to me by a doctor and it really helped: Detox Max Plus, but that company now has another one that is supposedly better. This really made the best difference, but the stress it put on my kidneys caused me to have to take a break and drain kidneys for a few weeks before proceeding, this after I had already done kidney drainage. Also, have you done clays and infrared rays? Gage mercury detox A word of wisdom .... be careful you don't overdose anyone onchlorella or any of the greens.

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 That's why it's important to be well mineralized before you go chelating mercury. Two things to remember are this (wish I had known sooner) -- when you get mercury out, you better have a balanced ph. That means doing the strips in the a.m. and p.m. Second, you gotta get your coral calcium and not some junk brand because if you are not absorbing minerals, you are gonna have one hell of a time. I know all about it. And I'm still paying the piper. is Rotella, M.Ac., CNC > While detoxing for mercury, a person will probably have to take extra zinc > because zinc will also be pulled out of the body along with the other heavy > metals. > Kelley > > > > > > From: " jadespring2003 " <jadespring2003@y...> > Sent: Friday, June 10, 2005 8:26 PM > Subject: mercury detox > > > A word of wisdom .... be careful you don't overdose anyone on > chlorella or any of the greens.
