I am due to have my 14 amalgam fillings removed in the next few weeks.

I have only started learning about the various methods of chelation over the last couple of weeks, and the first thing I read about was chlorella.

I bought some because it sounded safe and natural.
It started to relieve some of my symptoms straight away, including:-
Reduced ringing in the ears
Synuses clear every morning.
Clearer thinking.
No headaches
Eczema starting to clear up
More energetic

Generally i felt a lot better, and was taking the recommended 6 chlorella a day for about a week...(holland and barretts chlorella...the tub also states that it contains lipoic acid on the side of the tub on the ingredients list)
Until i read what Andy Cutlin said, which is to avoid chlorella.

Does anybody know why he advises people to avoid chlorella with regards to mercury-related symptoms?

Is it dangerous in any way?

Can it be used after amalgams have been removed ? (along with, for example, algin, DMSA and lipoic acid) ?

I stopped using the chlorella after a few days as soon as i read what Andy Cutlin had written about avoiding it..

It's quite confusing, because all over the internet, people are praising chlorella, and i think Andy is the only person who is advising to stay away from it.

I hope someone can help me here... i am willing to buy DMSA, LIPOIC ACID, ALGIN, HUMET and use CHLORELLA, and magnetic rings to help myself, but i am uncertain as to which would be better for me, in which order, or if i should use everything on a kind of rotational cycle.

I have been suffering kidney stones and pain for 10 years, which i found out recently must be due to mercury amalgams, so i think i am quite heavily toxic, and i want to detox the safest way possible, and not make anything worse for myself.

Is chlorella bad? If so why? I have read that 30% of people might not have good reactions with chlorella, why is this ?
Is there a difference between using chlorella without lipoic acid in it, and chlorella without lipoic acid in it?

Sorry for all the questions, but i'm finding it hard to find these answers out on the internet !

Thanks for reading this

Chlorella has lipoic acid in it. Lipoic acid crosses the blood brain barrier and mobilises mercury from your brain. i.e it picks up the mercury off your brain and it then floats the mercury around your blood stream looking to be removed from the body.

However, this mobilisation of mercury is good and bad. Good because u want to get it off your brain, bad because it can then re-settle somewhere else, for example in your liver or kidney.

Or, it could redistribute to another part of your brain.

If you have mercury in other parts of your body already, for example liver or kidney, and that is also mobilised by the chlorella too….you then have lots of mercury floating around yr system, some will leave your body, but some will redistribute to other areas, for example liver & kidneys and of course redistribute to yr brain as well!

That’s why Andy Cutlers recommends getting rid of the mercury body burden first (for example liver and kidney) then when body burden is much reduced, then u can go for the mercury on your brain, in small low doses.

If u have mercury on the brain then the chances of having mercury in other parts of your body are almost guaranteed.

Note just in case its not clear; redistribution of mercury to the brain really screws people up. Big time. Its something you don’t wanna try, even once.

Some people can handle chorella, but lots more people can’t and it just screws them over more.

Re kidney stones: you need to do a kidney cleanse. Its easy, just take some herbs. Read all about them here http://curezone.com/cleanse/kidney/default.asp
I do The Watercure, and I did the kidney cleanse by Andreas Moritz which worked great for me, and I do recommend it.

I am half way through removal of my amalgams…..good luck Lee

p.s. why do people recommend taking chorella? Because companies sell it. You then google “mercury detox” and up pops the simple solution…just take chlorella….unfortunately it is not the magic bullet.

Chloralla contains lipoic acid? Never heard this before??? confused

Hi Sunshine,

Thanks a lot for the reply... you have confirmed what i was thinking about chlorella possibly moving stuff to another part of the brain or other organs....which is what i am afraid of doing.

I have read also what you say about getting rid of the body burden first before the brain.

I am just a bit confused about which chelators will help with the body organs first, before the brain.... I was thinking about using HUMET or DMSA first, along with ALGIN. Then maybe LIPOIC ACID a bit later on, and chlorella. Kind of rotating.

Does anybody know if that is the safest way to start ? or is DMSA really for afterwards kind of later down the line...

From what i have read, ALGIN is supposed to take stuff away, whereas DMSA will pluck it out kind of thing... so i am thinking of starting on ALGIN straight away with either humet or DMSA.

I am having the 3 teeth totally removed, not having the fillings drilled or anything, so i presume i can start on the ALGIN and DMSA straight after removal of the teeth, but maybe in small doses of DMSA to start with, but normal amount of ALGIN, and then try HUMET out after maybe a week of DMSA.

I suppose it's a matter of trial-and-error but i am presuming as long as I take ALGIN, it will be taking it all out of my body...

My kidneys are ok, i haven't had a stone since last year because i drink plenty of water and have been eating organic for 2 years now.

Thanks for the reply sunshine anyway...i've got a lot to learn about this stuff still.

I would appreciate any information about ALGIN, and what it exactly does and if i should be starting on that straight away...

Read Andrew Cutlers book “amalgam illness.” There is NO substitute for doing your own research. He is the best on mercury. He knows his stuff big time. You are playing with fire when trying other protocols from less informed people. Its only $35 and 1 week to read it, chelating his way will take 1-2 years. If u disagree with it, at least you will then be making informed decisions, not taking advice from people like me that you don’t know, or worse listening to anons.

Algin. I don’t know much about algin, so I do not take it.

I will be chelating as per Andrew culters protocol which is DMSA in low dosage, 3.5 days on, 3.5 days off, every 3 hours (even in the night) starting 4 days after all mercury is removed……well that’s the plan in any case. What actually happens we will have to see. Amalgam removal screwed me up much more that thought it would, so I have slowed down removal to a pace I can handle, which is 1 months break in-between quadrant removals.

Where to start? Apart from reading the book, is to supplement yourself. You need to support your body’s needs. For example; if you stomach is not doing its job, you need to try and get it working!

U need to read as much as possible about mercury because it is serious . Then it will not be “trial-and error” as you say. Cutler explains things pretty well in layman’s terms.

For your information, I got my kidney pain to stop by starting the anti-candida diet. You might think that your kidney pains come from mercury, but it's more the candida that causes it. Either by invading the kidneys, or because there is too much of them in the bloodstream. I believe kidney stones can be caused by candida and other parasites as well.

So don't forget the anti-candida diet, it can and should be started right away.

Thanks sunshine... i will try and get Cutlers book before i start any kind of chelating properly anyway...I'm trying to find it as a download anywhere..probably not but worth a go..and thanks PGM for the advice..i have a good diet...no kidney trouble...no sugar...organic foods...plenty of water..im sure i have not much candida at all..but thanks for the advice...

Lee

This is exactly what I found, kill and control the candida gently and most all symptoms are gone or greatly reduced and chelation is soooo much easier.

Btw, chlorella works fine for me....but definitely not for everyone. This is such a trial and error guessing game, you really have to learn to listen to your body.

so does anybody want to tell me the potential side effects if i overdose on nanized chlorella? the whole heavy metal nano detox bottle. you know, tell me something to discourage me, because i really want to drink the whole thing right now since i can't even tell if it's doing anything for chelation. you can ignore this post if you want but don't tell me i wouldn't dare do it. desperate enough to do so.

If I take any chlorella I get very nauseous and vomit violently. I get sick just smelling the stuff. I can't touch the stuff. I use liquid chlorophyll and put that in my fresh juice in the mornings and in my drinking water.
