Another gem by Bex, and all so true, my candida was masking my mercury illness, and kiling brought the hmt to light.

I battled candida for 2 years and then finally met Dr John Matsen and he told me if you have candida and amalgams, there is little doubt you have heavy metal toxicity and likely mostly mercury.

There are great recipes and food lists at wholeapproach.com... and they have a good colon cleanse too. Be careful to go slow with the antifungals cause they can cause lots of die off symptoms as Bex posted. And most important of all, start with the diet and a good probioitic for at least a week, to ease the dieoff.

The diet is the single best thing I did for my health next to getting the mercury out...I still follow the diet as I have lots of chelating to do, but I am more liberal than I was before removal. Eliminating sugar, gluten, dairy and caffeine from your diet is absolutely crucial to beating hmt...we have to have a clean colon to get the mercury out!!!

It was tough giving up my red wine, cigarettes and favorite foods, but it was well worth it, I am getting my life back better than ever!!!
