The trouble with cigarettes and alcohol for the mercury poisoned is that they can become a crutch...these drugs give us a lift and pretty soon we start to rely on them to make us feel good. Then the trouble begins....been there, done that. I drank and smoked for years cause they made me feel better at first...but then those habits got out of control and brought me to the candida diagnosis. Which probably turned out to be the best thing, cause then I learned about the mercury/yeast connection and followed a cancer diet for 4 years before my actual cancer diagnosis. But if I had been exercising instead of smoking and drinking wine, my cancer may not have progressed to this point either.

If "ifs" and "buts" were candies and nuts, every day would be like Christmas!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
