Andy and all: Dental emergency--hubby swallowed amalgam

[Guest guest]

Hi,

Tonight at dinner my husband's silver filling(assuming it's an amalgam)came

loose from the tooth and he is sure he swallowed it. Oh no! He has other

amalgams so no chelation for him until those are removed. But, in the interim,

is there anything he can do to facilitate a quick transport through the GI with

minimal absorption? Should he bulk up on fiber foods? Start liver support

supps? Any advice is much appreciated.

Thank you,

~Robin

If it were me, I'd take activated charcoal immediately.

Activated charcoal.

A big piece is no problem, it will go straight through.

It's interesting that people think an amalgam filling in your gut will

do more harm than in your mouth. Both places are in your body, the

leaching is the same.
