With the rapidly-rising awareness of mercury toxicity (thank God), there is going to be a tide of "metal detox" products that will hit the market in the next few years.

Being a science-minded person, I usually like to see research on products, especially when they make special claims like, "our product chelates 100%".

I certainly don't know if it does or not, but I do believe spending over $100 on a product like this is not warranted unless you can really prove it does what it says.

Several inexpensive supplements cross the BB barrier and cause mercury to expel from tissue. I am a detox success story and I used inexpensive, readily available substances to get to this point (except for the first few weeks in which I used DMPS injections which I would not do again).

I'm a huge advocate of innovative natural/alternative health modalities, but being in this business this long and knowing as many health food store owners and Herbalists as I do, I'm still skeptical when I hear "out-of-the-box" claims.

Please be careful and do your research before trying a new product. ...And I wholeheartedly agree with Laura: Always keep the Algin handy.

All the best.
