Nope. It's not the amount of metals that determines safety, it's how

long ago they got there. If he doesn't have amalgams or hasn't had

any shots recently he should be fine.

For ALA the dosing is 1/8 to 1/2 mg per lb of body weight, so you

could conservatively start him off at 5 mgs, given every 3 hours (you

can stretch it to 4 hrs at night).

I don't even know what

This is a great place to be clueless because you can ask all the

question you need/want to . Biochem ALA (alpha lipoic acid) comes

in 50 mgs, so you can get empty capsules and divide them by 10. (I

usually listen to music and do this after the kids are in bed.)Then

fill the rest of the cap with vit C. Does he swallow caps? If not you

can give it in liquid but you don't want to mix it up way in advance.

I think you posted somewhere else what supps he's taking -- there's a

very useful supp list in the files of this group, you can take a look

to see if there are any gaps. Supps really help with side effects and

generally feeling better during the process.

If you have other question, ask away!

That's what I use. The banana wafer ones made by American Health available at

WFM and other HFS.
