Guest guest Posted September 30, 1998 Report Share Posted September 30, 1998 Many of the symptoms described here are potentially attributed to Mercury toxicity. Mercury is one of the most toxic metals even in small quantities and is often a problem in the gold mining industry where individual miners use mercury as a separating agent. By the way, the Swedish government has banned all mercury-silver amalgams in dentistry. In America, dentistry still uses such amalgams and that is what you get unless you request a composite ceramic or a gold filling. history is significant particularly if she has had a lot of dental work in proximity to the onset of symptoms (she refers to a dental problem, by the way.) She also notes the result of a hair analysis but does not mention mercury levels. (Even relatively low levels do not mean that mercury is not resident in quantity in a specific organ or gland.) If you read the alternative medicine handbook under the category of mercury, you quickly see that mercury masquerades as a variety of illnesses and problems. Check this book out, it is a good resource. By the way, the discussion of chelation therapy, mercury toxicity, and oxygen therapy are scientifically supported. ______________________________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 30, 1998 Report Share Posted September 30, 1998 One further note, aluminum is also considered toxic and a few years ago was one of the metals associated with the onset of Alzheimer's disease. I switched to stainless steel cookware as a result of the reports. ______________________________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2006 Report Share Posted July 12, 2006 Skipper, Regarding food processing:THE SHELF-LIFE BUSINESSLet's talk about processed foods. How did all these artificial, devitalized foods become the main components of the American diet in the first place?Long story. In 1910 Harvey Wiley, MD was the first head of the original FDA. Dr. Wiley was a big critic of food adulteration. He was against bleached flour, refined sugar, and the sale of adulterated, devitalized foods. He once tried to prevent the Coca Cola company from shipping Coke across interstate lines because it had white sugar in it, which Dr. Wiley correctly described as an adulterated food. Then Wiley actually began seizing shipments of bleached flour. A legal battle ensued and went all the way to the Supreme Court in 1913. Wiley won. Bleach was proven to be an empty filler whose main purpose was to kill bugs and bulk up the flour. This law has never been enforced, or reversed either. Soon thereafter the huge financial interests controlling food processing banded together and got Wiley thrown out of office. Ever since we have had white flour, which has no food value whatsoever - no vitamins, no minerals, no enzymes, and which often contains large amounts of bleach - (Bealle, Royal Lee) That's what bread labels even today are talking about when they state "unbleached flour." Like it's some hot selling point that the bread doesn't have bug-killer in it.Food processing has only been around for about the last 90 years or so. Food processing came about mainly during wartime when we had to figure out how to transport large quantities of food to the WWI soldiers without spoiling on the way. Scientists found out that the more efficient were the methods of removing enzymes from foods, the better it transported and the longer it lasted. After the war, the techniques that had been learned were applied to the grocery business. The supermarket industry soon found out that profits could be greatly increased if foods can be made to last longer without spoiling. If that meant that they were also removing most or all of the nutrition from the food along with the enzymes, hey, too bad. The manufacturers weren't in the health business; this was the Shelf-Life business.Scientific methods of enzyme removal and food preservation then became more and more sophisticated continuing to the present day. In addition, chemical additives came in, which do nothing to nourish the body ? it's just about the money. And now the two new buzzwords are irradiation and genetic engineering. Do you think any of these methods has anything to do with increasing the nutritive value of foods? Dream on. This is big business, driven by one motive only.Excerpt from Dr. Tim O'Shea on Enzymes, he also has some very interesting historical info on dentistry.LinnOn Jul 12, 2006, at 6:28 PM, lsb149 wrote:Thyroidhistory.net is an interesting site with many old articles.Here's an excerpt from one, which I found by searching for iodineentries. (That wasn't the focus of the article though.) It seemsthat way back in 1934. It seems they were already concerned with thechanging diet, in this article particularly with magnesium.They already knew white flour was bad,strange I never heard much aboutthat until the 1990s. They knew whole grains actually had magnesium,unlike white flour.They knew that magnesium was hard to absorb, as said and theyused halogens to help. If chlorine helps, maybe iodine does also.Anyway, they also knew mercury in dentistry was a bad idea in the1800s, at least according to a letter on the Internet I read once tahtwas alleged to be from the 1800s..

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 , I somehow managed to lose your last post about this subject. I do realize how long it takes for history to be semi-validated, and that it's all in the pen of the chronicler. There have been many verified changed in the Old Testament and the New Testament as well. As far as recorded history, well you know that people can't and don't agree on what happened last week, so how can we blindly follow things that happened many, many years ago? Maybe someday there will actually be a use for all the cameras instead of just tickets and criminals. Maybe someday they'll actually be set up to record in sound and image what is really going on in the governing offices of the administration. There are recorded sessions of congress, and I've watched many of them, but no one sees what bargaining and arm twisting goes on out of the range of those cameras.

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Be careful what you ask for. That AZT that we fought so hard for is what killed our friends and family, NOT HIV. My friends were perfectly healthy and had no symptoms except for an HIV diagnosis. AZT killed them. Medication is not the answer. There are a lot of people living with HIV from the beginning who did not take meds and are doing just fine today.

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 I remember it well Marc. I have seen the quilt three times. Today it is so large it can no longer be completely displayed in one place. I had the honor of meeting Cleve , the man who conceived the quilt. On behalf of all of us I gave him a trophy honoring the work he has done and what the quilt has done for us. Your pictures did not come through in the E mail I received. Please send the pics again. Lest we ever forget.
