I take Algin daily. I try to take 3-4 capsules at least once a day for general detox. However, if I exercise or do a lot of yardwork, I usually take 4 capsules 2 or 3 times a day, because physical exertion really seems to "stir up" the mercury still in my tissues. If I'm out to a restaurant and I have a little bit of fish (maybe 2-4 oz.), I definitely make sure I take at least 4 capsules before and after my meal. I'll continue to take 4 capsules 2 to 3 times a day for the next day or so. If I forget to take extra algin the next day, I can really tell the difference!

Even though I had my 20 fillings removed 4 years ago, I still experience many of the same old mercury symptoms whenever I eat fish (which of course, isn't very often). For me, the symptoms are primarily mental and emotional (brain-fog, depression, irritability, aggressiveness, mood swings all over the place). I'll also experience physical symptoms like being really cold, lethargic, clumsy and unable to sleep well.
