It will take all the mercury available in the person's body and slam

it into their brain, making them much more toxic.

It will move mercury around w/o moving it out of the body.

Also, all that metal constantly moving thru your body without any

chance for your body and organs to rest, is not a good idea. Much too

stressful, at least in my opinion.

well, like everything about chelation, this is something experts

disagree radically about.

Andy's understanding of chemestry says that when you take a

chelation agent, and then you STOP, there is mercury loose

that then gets redistributed -- and is attracted to the places

that are attracted to mercury, such as the brain and liver.

So, Andy's method of chelation calls for taking the chelation

agents frequently enough to keep the chelation going steadily

for many doses. You still get a little redistribution, on the

last dose, but the majority of the time you don't. This requires

taking the chelators very often.

There are MANY MANY methods of chelation that do not do it

this way--- they use the chelation agents once a day -- or

whatever-- like the one you cited. Many people have had

bad results this way. Some have had okay results. Some

have had disasterous results. There are also many variations

on the dosing method. For instance, DMPS injections (one

big dose, injected, maybe once a month) is more " extreme "

than ALA once a day, but both also are start/stop on EACH

dose.

If you'd like to read a dozen or two commentaries on this,

each slightly restated, you can go here:

/files/ANDY_INDEX

and look for the section on " steady bloodstream level of

chelation agents and " bad " protocols " . Read it all, or until

you get bored LOL.

If you would like to see more about Andy's timing methods,

see the section (in the same file) about dose timing, or

read:

/files/Andy_dose_sched

If you would like some evidence of people with bad results,

you can try:

http://www.dmpsbackfire.com/default.shtml

/surveys?id=495865

There are people on this list (now and in the past) who have

used less-frequent timing and have had very bad results. There

are also those who have & do use it and think it is working

just fine. I have never tried less frequent timing, myself.

best wishes,

Thanks for all the great information. Can someone clarify if it is ok

to ONLY use ALA without DMSA but just not everyday? Thanks

It is NEVER OK to use ALA if you might have a mercury problem EXCEPT

when you take it every 3-4 hours for days on end, then skip. It

doesn't matter whether DMSA is along for the ride or not.

I'm still a bit confused. Couldn't using ALA alone on a 3on/11off

schedule still move mercury into the brain from the organs if you

have not used DMSA first? Also can ALA be used with TTFD at the same

time or should one be used first? Thanks

Thanks Moria! I'm just trying to get it all straight so I can make

the best choices for my son. He has made excellent progress on the

diet, supplements, and antifungal therapy but now I think we are

ready to get moving with chelation.

I use ALA only, I have never used DMSA. I do 3/4 or 3/11 protocol.

It works very well for my family.
