ELIMINATING MERCURY

In order to remove mercury the body must have several systems in good working order.

BOWELS AND KIDNEYS are the main avenues of excretion for mercury. So the bowels and kidneys must be able to eliminate regularly and correctly.

LIVER FUNCTION: The liver is the main filtering system in the body. As mercury leaves the tissues and circulates through the blood and lymph system it will find its way to the liver to be sent out of the body.

ADRENAL AND THYROID FUNCTION: These glands are responsible for pumping mercury out of our tissues and sending it to the liver. Once in the liver they signal the liver to dump it out of the body.

NUTRIENTS THAT REMOVE MERCURY!
The trace element "SELENIUM" prevents mercury absorption from the intestinal tract. Other trace elements like zinc, iron, manganese, molybdenum, and vanadium help to stop mercury from absorbing into our cells and bump it out after it has settled in.

Sulfur compounds such as garlic, raw onions, slow cooked beans and eggs all aid the liver in the elimination and mobilization of mercury. Some of us cannot tolerate these foods, but probably because they are drawing mercury out and the elimination systems are not cleaned enough to remove them.

Excellent information, Sandi. Thank you for posting it. These are things that someone with amalgams still in or who have just had theirs removed need to learn about. There are a few of the nutrients that you mentioned that I presently take, but didn't know their purpose in chelation. Thanks again.
