ALA did cause yeast for my kids. I never used DMPS, so I can't

compare the two.

I used ALA and my kids never smelled sulfury.

For my kids, I knew I was finished when several rounds did not produce

any changes, and in fact the rounds started causing problems. This

was at approx round 100.

Yes, all chelation causes yeast to some degree. It has to do with

moving metals. Have a yeast protocol in place.

My kids do not smell and we use dmsa/ala. I think proper

supplementation and appropriate dosing would elminate any such

problem.

NO!

Andy has said it's either all oral, or all TD per round. You cannot

intermix them. The dosing and absorption rates vary too much. You

can however, do one round oral and the next round td. oral works

better.

Some have tried it using skin lotion, but it is questionable as to

how strong it is, or how long it lasts. Once you mix ala is is not

stable and will become weaker. Same with the stuff mixed by the

pharmacy.

When your child no longer shows any progress, and the symptoms of

metal toxicity are gone. This can take from 1-3 years depending on

the age/level of poisoning of the child.
