Guest guest Posted December 29, 2001 Report Share Posted December 29, 2001 Mercury and DMSA has been the discussion on this list.I was under the impression that DMSA was for mercury detox I recently saw this on another list and seems to give different information. ==== Reduce the body burden of mercury. There are several drugs and at least one nutrient that seem quite effective in enhancing the body's detoxification rate of extracellular mercury. Each of these are described as a " dithiol " compound. DMPS is an experimental drug, legally available in the USA only from medical researchers under special FDA license. DMSA is available for prescription under a general FDA approval, though its primary approval is for eliminating a body burden of lead, not mercury. Alpha lipoic acid is a naturally occurring compound found in very small amounts in potatoes and other foods, and is available over-the-counter as a food supplement. ===== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
