: Re: ALA alone unsafe per DAN doc

[Guest guest]

,

I introduced ALA during the first round of chelation and we've seen

only good things from chelation (not always progress, but never

regress from chelation).

My view is this: any time we move metals by chelating we are risking

some going into the brain. Yes, there is the BBB to prevent some of

this from happening, but it is obvious from autopsies that the BBB is

not 100% effective in this capacity, even in adults. I have also read

that the BBB can be compromised by viral problems. If this is true,

it would mean a significant number of our kids have a less than

optimal BBB.

For these reasons and more, I chose to use ALA as soon as I started

chelating. It is also for these reasons that I am fanatical about the

topic of redistribution.

I hope this helps.
