I totally agree that the candida can "save" us from the mercury by absorbing it and that it will be released when you kill off the yeast in the gut. It seems like a catch 22. You can't get rid of the mercury until your digestive system is healthy enough to eliminate it safely, but killing the candida to improve your digestive health releases the mercury....

Just the diet, along with foods like coconut oil and garlic may be all some people can handle for a while. I may have done it a little to fast because my adrenal symptoms were worse after I did chelation and killed off the yeast. Do I regret it? I might have gone a little slower with the chelation, but I don't really regret it. The candida, the unhealthy gut, and the mercury were contributing to so many other health problems. This whole thing needs to be so individualized. We really need to monitor our symptoms and not go to quickly. Yes, moderation is the key!
