Thanks for your reply...I am curious why you chose ALA over all the

other chelators?? Do you have to suppliment while on ALA>? Does it

take the good & bad minerals? Any LiverKidney support on this?

You said that you had urine tests showing he is still dumping, does a

Dr. order this? I was thinking that ALA is at the HFS's & you didn't

need a prescription...

Sorry about all of these questions, but It has been told to me

several times that I am wasting my money on the TD-DMPS..so I don't

want to do that..ha ha..

Thanks again!

It's the only one that chelates mercury from the brain. And my son

responded to it quickly at a very low dose.

> Do you have to suppliment while on ALA>?

Yes. Lots of antioxidants and zinc and magnesium. There's a helpful

supplement file in the file section of list.

Not sure what you mean about good and bad minerals. Different kids

seem to need calcium, or not need it, or need high amounts of zinc or

a minimal amount -- you have to try giving some stuff and seeing how

the kid responds. Some kids don't have any changes good or bad with

supps, others are sensitive and you have to be careful introducing new

things and getting the dosage right. A good rule is to introduce new

things one at a time, at half dosage or less, and see how it goes.

Yes, I give milk thistle as liver support.

> Dr. order this?

Yes, although you can order them yourself through Direct Labs. I

didn't bother for years because I could see his improvements for

myself. They're not cheap either. But I have to admit I get a kick out

of seeing the junk coming out of him on paper.

Yes, it's very nice not to have to bother with a script.
