Guest guest Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 that's an interesting thought. would sealants help to contain the mercury in these old fillings? i really can't afford to have mine removed right now. i am taking selenium, though, in the form of a couple of raw brazil nuts, which i have heard can do the job. bests, ceceFrom: kaydeeaych <kaydeeaych@...>Subject: Re: Safe to take iodine w/mercury fillings during pregnancy?iodine Date: Wednesday, October 14, 2009, 10:03 AM , do you have any thoughts on my question? > > I have probably six mercury-amalgam fillings from childhood, some with sealants over top.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 I don't have anything that would guarantee safety. If I were in this situation I would take at least 12.5 mgs but along with that I would take selenium, magnesium, vit c, celtic salt, and maybe some chlorella. I am not sure what else I may add but you would be sure that I would research the heck out of it. Iodine is very important to the baby but unfortunately it is impossible to know the toxicity level of the mother.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 I am not pregnant but I do have mercury amalgams in my mouth. I am wondering why it is bad to tak mercury detoxing agents while they are still in place. Here's my reasoning: You have the mercury amalgams outgassing or whatever it is they do, and probably years worht of this stored in whatever tissues that are stored in. You begin the iodine protocol and now you have mercury being dislodged from your tissues and circulating your body. You take slkenium and whatever else you feel or know will help escort as much of the mercury as possible from your body. How does taking iodine loosen or release more mercury from the amalgams? They are not a part of your circulatory system, or your lymph system. I am asking this not rhetorically, but to be informed if this is indeed what happens and an explanation of how. I would like to have my amalgans replaced, but that is not affordable for me at this time, and I do not wish to wait on detoxing until I can afford that process. Thoughts? Information? ~Jill~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Jill Please, please DO NOT take chorella. " natural " chelating agents are just as dangerous as " non natural ones " when you still have amalgam fillings. In other words do not take any chelating agents whilst you have your amalgams. Don't just take my word for it but do your research and you will understand why I say this. Go to www.noamalgam.com and the group Adult Metal Chelation. They will answer this question for you in detail and many more relating to mercury chelation besides. Incidentally Andy Cutler (who I and many others who have researched mercury intensively believe to be the most knowledgable on mercury detox and has the safest protocol)would not recommend chorella either. As far as Iodine goes, as far as I know there is no reason for not using it when you have amalgam fillings.The only thing to be aware of whether you have amalgam fillings or not is that if the iodine does in fact displace mercury from the tissues and organs into the blood, you have to rely on your body to get rid of that mercury and many people can't. (I am severely mercury toxic myself and do know that I do not excrete it at all without chelation). So you have to go cautiously and be aware that if you believe that you are mercury toxic you may need to go very slow with the iodine or folow a chelation protocol such as the AC one at the same time. Saying that, like many others here you may be fine with just the Iodine.

Not using these while still having amalgams makes sense though - remove the source first. So far I have seen to watch for: 1) The source being tested as it does "absorb" metals such as mercury., so a poor source can have metals in it already, although it "absorbs" not releases it into the system according to all the studies I have seen so far. This seems to place it in a good light as most products release mercury and other metals into the bloodstream, so absorbing seems better. 2) Type- broken cell is the best type as treated cell can have chemical residues from the treatment, and also the cell wall not being broken limits its effectiveness. Its apparently the cell walls that work. Some have spoken of it relocating the mercury but if it actually binds to it then that isn't happening. More reasearch is needed - so it may be safest to hold off using it perhaps. 3) One person such as Andy Cutler, and a couple reports of negative effects on the forum isn't conclusive, but definitely is reason enough for caution and to do more reasearch Thanks Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 I went to www.moamalgms.com and it just seems to be a teasre to buy Andy Cutler's book. I did not get any real information there. Is there anywhere else to go to get info on detoxing from mercury? My actual real question is this: Why not detox the mercury from your body tissues even though the amalgams are still in your teeth? I do not see how that can release *more* mercury into your body than it is already doing just by outgassing. Out gassing seems to be the vector through which we are poisoned by the mercury in the amalgams. I still think it must be a goiod thing to keep getting the poison out of your body. BTW, I've taken chlorella before with no bad effects. Sincerely, Jill~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 As a recovering mercury victim..had my amalgams out 4 years ago. He's right. No chelating agents at all. The reason is that it pulls mercury into your brain. Chlorella in particular stirs up mercury but does not bind to it to escort it out of the body. This type of moving around of mercury can cause some problems. We have seen many many people on the mercury groups try these things and get worse. I took chlorella myself before switching to Andy Cutler chelation..and it was not good. I did not have amalgams at the time, but it did make me really sick. Luckily I stopped it immediately and moved on. Please research safe low dose chelation (AC chelation) while you work at getting your amalgams removed safely. (www.iaomt.org) if you would like more information you may email me. I don't wish to clog up the list going off topic. Jan > " Please, please DO NOT take chorella.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Hi Personally I wouldn't use either of these whilst you have amalgams. In fact I wouldn't use them even if you don't as their half life and action isn't as well researched as DMSA, DMPS or ALA (the chelators that the Cutler protocol uses) and Andy Cutler insists that chelators should be taken on a frequent low dose basis acording to their half life. (for example we take DMSA every 3-4 hours day and night for several days at a time).This is the main point of his protocol and is most definitely the safest and most well backed up I have ever come across. Of course to fully understand all this you need to read his stuff or the info on the group. Anyone who is interested in chelating this way should also read his book which isn't expensive, isn't promoted or comercially profitable and is FULL of useful information. You can buy it from the website I mentioned. I think there are other reasons not to use these herbs but I can't remember off hand. I'm rubbish at explaining things even though I have done the research and " know " what I know. ;-) Incidentally many people have been harmed from using cilantro or chorella. And any chelators WILL pull mercury from your teeth and redistribute it around your body if you have any amalgams. www.onibasu.com is another good site for looking up posts on the mercury groups about mercury and related topics such as this one. Tick the " Autism Mercury " , " Frequent dose " and " adult metal chelation " boxes at the top before you search. > > > > > > Chlorella is supposed to help with mercury as well, taking it out more than releasing it I believe... make sure its broken cell. > > > http://www.naturalnews.com/025104_chlorella_health_detox.html > > > > > > http://tuberose.com/Chlorella.html > > > > > > Bruce > > > > > > Re: Safe to take iodine w/mercury fillings during pregnancy? > > > > > > > > > I am not pregnant but I do have mercury amalgams in my mouth.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 I take your 3rd point onboard Bruce and of course it's up to everyone here to do their own research and ask questions. And as you say caution is the thing and that's what I wanted to get across. All I can do is offer my limited knowledge but I never offer it lightly - only when I really have researched and understood something as thoroughly as I have this. It's not my place here to promote Andy Cutler of course either but I can say that as I have spent several years reserching mercury and chelation I do feel so strongly about this subject as I know how damaging more common practices are. Sometimes irreversabily so. I also know that he talks more sense than anyother " expert " I have come across. He is biochemist, not a Doctor and cured himself from mercury toxicity. He understands the in depth effects of drugs on the body. Also, unlike many other " experts " he doesn't promote himself, have a website, sell supplements or anything else. Of course there are also some people who have their fillings removed, take a bit of cilantro or whatever and feel better. They are the lucky ones, but knowing what can go (drastically) wrong I feel obliged to offer up my knowledge. Hopefully this will encourage anyone here considering chelation to look carefully into all the pros and cons first and come to their own conclusions. I had better get off my soap box now! ;-) > " Please, please DO NOT take chorella. " natural " chelating agents are just as dangerous as " non natural ones " when you still have amalgam fillings.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Hi ALi I really don't want to come across as some self confessed mercury expert here ;-) But what I know about tests is that the hair mineral analysis is a useful one(not plain old hair analysis) from doctors data - see info here: http://onibasu.com/archives/am/127144.html You will need the help of the group to analyse your results. Urinary porhorins (sorry can't spell!) are also useful. Urine testing isn't particulary useful. There are many other methods talked about but I now only follow AC's recommendations. I have to say that challenge tests are NOT recommended either, especially with amalgams in situ. Otherwise the simplest test is to read AC's book and go through his list of signs and symptoms (very long!) and test results you may already have had which may be indicative. Then a safe trial of his low dose protocol with easily bought DMSA or ALA will soon tell you if you have a problem or not. If you don't you will be able to take these substances without any problems. If you are mercury toxic you will get symptoms from a particular dose. It might be a good idea to stick to the Iodine for now, especially if you are seeing improvements. I am quite an unusual case ;-) > > > > > > Chlorella is supposed to help with mercury as well, taking it out > > more than releasing it I believe... make sure its broken cell. > > > http://www.naturalnews.com/025104_chlorella_health_detox.html > > > > > > http://tuberose.com/Chlorella.html > > > > > > Bruce > > > > > > Re: Safe to take iodine w/mercury fillings > > during pregnancy? > > > > > > > > > I am not pregnant but I do have mercury amalgams in my mouth.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Correander is what pulls the mercury out of your system. trake that. From: Jan <mercurybabies2@...>Subject: Re: Safe to take iodine w/mercury fillings during pregnancy?iodine Date: Friday, October 16, 2009, 4:21 PM As a recovering mercury victim..had my amalgams out 4 years ago. He's right. No chelating agents at all. The reason is that it pulls mercury into your brain. Chlorella in particular stirs up mercury but does not bind to it to escort it out of the body. This type of moving around of mercury can cause some problems. We have seen many many people on the mercury groups try these things and get worse. I took chlorella myself before switching to Andy Cutler chelation..and it was not good. I did not have amalgams at the time, but it did make me really sick. Luckily I stopped it immediately and moved on.Please research safe low dose chelation (AC chelation) while you work at getting your amalgams removed safely. (www.iaomt.org)if you would like more information you may email me. I don't wish to clog up the list going off topic.Jan> "Please, please DO NOT take chorella. "natural" chelating agents are just as dangerous as "non natural ones" when you still have amalgam fillings. In other words do not take any chelating agents whilst you have your amalgams. Don't just take my word for it but do your research and you will understand why I say this..."> > Interesting. I see a need for me to do more research on chlorella. Not using these while still having amalgams makes sense though - remove the source first.> > So far I have seen to watch for:> > 1) The source being tested as it does "absorb" metals such as mercury., so a poor source can have metals in it already, although it "absorbs" not releases it into the system according to all the studies I have seen so far. This seems to place it in a good light as most products release mercury and other metals into the bloodstream, so absorbing seems better.> > 2) Type- broken cell is the best type as treated cell can have chemical residues from the treatment, and also the cell wall not being broken limits its effectiveness. Its apparently the cell walls that work. Some have spoken of it relocating the mercury but if it actually binds to it then that isn't happening. More reasearch is needed - so it may be safest to hold off using it perhaps.> > 3) One person such as Andy Cutler, and a couple reports of negative effects on the forum isn't conclusive, but definitely is reason enough for caution and to do more reasearch > > Thanks> Bruce> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Hi ,I'd love to know more about problems with cilantro and mercury. I see a dentist who uses the chorella and cilantro protocols that are I think based on dr. Diethrich Klinghardt. The idea being that the chorella mobilizes the mercury and the cilantro removes it from the body.Any other info and links would be very appreciated.Thanks,Jack******************************Re: Safe to take iodine w/mercury fillings during pregnancy? Posted by: "jodi2ben" nessy@... jodi2ben Fri Oct 16, 2009 1:34 pm (PDT) Incidentally many people have been harmed from using cilantro or chorella. And any chelators WILL pull mercury from your teeth and redistribute it around your body if you have any amalgams. www.onibasu. com is another good site for looking up posts on the mercury about mercury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Can anyone explain exactly *how* chelators pull the mercury out of the amalgams? Thanks!~Jill~ PS please trim the posts, this is getting long! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 Thank you.It is just that I am 43 & may want another childbut don't want to pass that to my 2nd child like I did my first, so detoxing everything as quickly as possible is ideal.AliOn Oct 16, 2009, at 1:58 PM, jodi2ben wrote:Hi ALiI really don't want to come across as some self confessed mercury expert here ;-)But what I know about tests is that the hair mineral analysis is a useful one(not plain old hair analysis) from doctors data - see info here: http://onibasu.com/archives/am/127144.html You will need the help of the group to analyse your results.Urinary porhorins (sorry can't spell!) are also useful. Urine testing isn't particulary useful. There are many other methods talked about but I now only follow AC's recommendations. I have to say that challenge tests are NOT recommended either, especially with amalgams in situ.Otherwise the simplest test is to read AC's book and go through his list of signs and symptoms (very long!) and test results you may already have had which may be indicative. Then a safe trial of his low dose protocol with easily bought DMSA or ALA will soon tell you if you have a problem or not. If you don't you will be able to take these substances without any problems. If you are mercury toxic you will get symptoms from a particular dose.It might be a good idea to stick to the Iodine for now, especially if you are seeing improvements.
