pgm, i think you make a good point here. I believe that many toxic people do not have a higher body burden than healthy people. I think it is the way how our body/ especially our immune system reacts to it. That's why we need to remove all mercury from our mouth or we won't get well.

I am not sure if killing off pathogens is enough. I feel that we need to reduce our body burden and limit mercury exposure so that our immune system can permanently recover.

If you are correct it would very easy to recover from mercury toxicity. Just remove the amalgams and take the right supplements for a few weeks and you are cured.

I don't know however if pathogens are to blame for all mercury symptoms. How do you explain terrible permanent worsening from inapproprate chelation (dmsa every other day, DMPS IV etc) and people getting better with appropriate chelation.

For example: The guy who takes 200mg ALA once a day
gets much worse and than improves with the same substance on a 3 hour schedule? If it were just pathogens why would this happen?
