BG123 and Bex, thanks for your comments.
Regarding the vit C, I'm just parroting what Andrew Cutler has said:
http://onibasu.com/archives/am/2897.html"Ascorbic acid does not work for mercury chelation. It does not remove any mercury. It does however make people who have mercury problems feel better"
http://onibasu.com/archives/am/2771.html"Certain incompetent physicians who neither know any chemistry nor are capable of reading the lab test results that come back from their patients continue to maintain the superstition that vitamin C (ascorbic acid, ascorbate) increases the detoxification rate of mercury."
As to the mineral derangement, candida can in itself also cause that:
http://www.arltma.com/CandidaDoc.htm"Bio-unavailable copper is indicated on a tissue mineral test by a copper level above 3.0 mg/% or below 1.0 mgs/%. Other mineral indicators of a candida overgrowth are an elevated calcium level, elevated calcium/magnesium ratio, (greater than 10/1) or a low sodium/potassium ratio (less than 2.3/1)."
Excess salivation can also be linked to candida alone, just look around on candida pages, and in addition you can have candida debris coming out from eyes (didn't have this myself).
