Hi, I don't think I can improve on Russ' link there, but I can say this much. Vitamins and minerals are usually fine, but sulfur amino acids like cysteine, methionine, and garlic etc, chlorella, lipoic acid, msm, are not. They have an affinity for mercury and will mobilise it and possibly move it into more sensitive areas.

Basic vitamins and minerals are ok, as they are not direct chelators.


I beg to differ on this one Bex, I thrive on MSM and do very well with n'acetyl cysteine...and garlic and other sulfurous foods...but what is good for me, may not necessarily work for another.

Smitho.....Check out mercury toxicity and B12 or do a google search, there are 2 kinds of B12, and most mercury toxic folks need more B12....... just not on the chelation days.
