RE: What is the recomended Protocol for Chelation via ALA?

[Guest guest]

I'm new to this group, but I have a question.

My 13-year old son is hopefully going to start chelation soon. Is the best

protocol to start the DMSA with ALA or DMSA alone? And are there any side

effects I should expect to see in the beginning?

Check the FAQs of this list. Having dental amalgam removed is considered recent

exposure so you need to wait about 3 months to start ALA but can go ahead with

DMSA. The protocol is the same whether you have a prescription or not. 1/8-1/2

mg per lb every 4 hrs for DMSA for 3 days and nights " on " and at least as many

days and nights " off " . For ALA it's every 3 hours during the day, every 4 at

night, again for three days and nights " on " and at least as many " off " . There's

a supplement file.

You could do the Cutler protocol of DMSA/ALA. You can get the DMSA at vrp.com.

and the ALA almost anywhere.

The protocol is in the files.

Carla,

I presume he has NO mercury amalgam dental fillings? If he has any you need to

have them safely removed according to proper protocol before you can safely

chelate. What toxic metals are you dealing with? Has he had a hair elements

test from DDI with counting rules applied? ALA chelates mercury and arsenic.

DMSA chelates mercury from the body and lead. If he has high copper on his hair

test you need to get that down before you start ALA. If he's had recent exposure

to mercury you need to wait about 3 month for ALA but could go ahead with DMSA.

Please be sure to educate yourself on Andy's protocol before you begin.

(or Dana),

I'm doing EDTA for lead (red zone level) and

mercury (yellow zone level), instead of DMSA. I

may do DMSA after some chelating with EDTA.

Anyway, half life times I've read about 2 hours

so I guess I can use similar timing on that?

Over the weekend, I did every 3-4 hours.

Following what I know of Andy Cutler's method but

with EDTA transdermally. I like the idea of rest

periods and slower, lower dosing. I was

initially diagnosed with high lead though using

DMSA urine challenge. I did hair analysis test

before I started chelating, not yet received

results.

I have no experience with EDTA. Are you asking how to add ALA to EDTA, or is

this one of those messages which carries an old subject line and totally

different content from the original message?

It has nothing to do with ALA so subject line

needed to be changed. I really don't remember

why I asked this as I know you all don't chelate

with EDTA and different agents may need different

treatment.

I have never used either of those chelators, so I don't really have

any advice for you. Sorry.

Andy specifically recommends not using EDTA chelation for mercury

poisoned individuals.
