Guest guest Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 So, your has improved considerably from heavy metal chelation. That's very interesting. Can you tell a bit about how much (and in what ways) your health has improved using ALA-chelation? Are you following the Cutler (frequent dose) protocol? What ALA-dosage are you on, and which dosage did you start out with? Do you have adrenal-problems, and have they improved from chelation? THanks, . > > I have many dishes in my back yard. I used to react to them very badly just by going out there and working on them with cresent wrenches. Maybe it is just an indication on how much better I am now that I can work on them all day and not get sick anymore. I have chelated for years and going on 2 and 1/2 years now with the ALA method. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 I've tried many different things. ALA has done a lot of good. But the first year or so is absolute hell. It would be hard to do if you are working. You can do it on the weekends to start out with. Over time I've been able to do it continuously. I would follow the Cutler protocol. Currently I take 400 mg every three hours during the day of regular ALA that I get at Walmart. When I get home I switch to R-ALA which is 200 mg every three hours. The R-ALA is supposed to be about twice as much as regular ALA since the entire amount is usuable by the body and regular ALA the body can only use about half of it and the other half may actually be bad for the mitocondria. But for some reason I like the ALA during the daytime. I started out using 100 mg and then went to 200 mg. The first year or so I could not do the 400 mg I do now without getting terrible side effects. There is a lyme group that uses chelation and salt to kill the lyme disease. Some people don't get better on just anti-biotics and have to do chelation for metals. It may be that the metals somehow keep the antibiotics from working. After doing chelation for more than a couple of years I've started using ozone daily to kill bacteria. It may be that any bacteria or virus may be harder to get rid of if you have metals. I'm going to do ozone treatment daily for at least a year and continue doing chelation daily as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Thanks for your reply! If you started up with 100mg of ALA on the Cutler protocol, I can understand how you describe the first year as hell. However, if one can tolerate it, and actually get better long term, it would be worth it. But if you go through hell while chelating, how do you know that you're getting better....? Myself I would be afraid of 'never' recovering if I started with such a high dose ALA. Interesting what you write about lyme. What's the name of the group you mention?

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 I think I have read a post by Andy Cutler where he points out that it is not certain that if you take a higher dose of ALA that it will get rid of more heavy metals than taking a smaller dose like the ones Marc takes. I just know that when I would take higher doses, in the early parts of the round, my memory and my brain would function like they did when I was young. The same wasn't true when I did small rounds. My memory was pretty far gone and even after two and a half years I'm just now getting my recall abilities back to where they once were. I'm going to keep doing what I'm doing and hope that eventually my memory and brain may be better than they ever where. I've always had a bad memory and I'm hoping for a big improvement if I continue. I may have been mercury poisoned at a very early age and my brain may not be wired like a lot of folks and may be similar in some ways to that of an autistic child. It is a spectrum and I may not have been so bad that I could be called autistic but I was a lot like an autistic kid when I was very young. Always very quiet and had motor skill problems and they had to even give me " speical ed " type stuff to get me to walk straight when I was in kindergarten. When I became mercury poisoned again in my later thirties I had lots of the same kinds of problems I had when I was very young. When I first started chelating with ALA I got a lot of sensations in the back of my neck and head and I saw my balance improving. Next I saw my long term memory get better. But it was a long time before I saw improvements in the short term memory and my ability to recall stuff. If you talk to the people at the frequent dose chelation group I think the ALA is safer than other things which they say are riskier and might drive the heavy metals deeper into the brain. I think ALA is pretty safe. The thing that concerns me is that long term use might have negative effects on the mitochondria and for that reason I use mostly R-ALA. You would have to do a group search for lyme to find the name of that group. It's been a long time. You'd probably find it by using the search word lyme.
