Hi Turmoiler,

Yes, omega 3 fish oils are perfectly safe, so long as you get a certified brand. The best I've heard yet is "blue Ice" brand. This is top stuff apparently! I use Nordic Naturals fish oil, and I find that ok. Cod liver oil is a great one to have, because it also has vitamin A and D naturally, plus some omega 3. But again, make sure you get a mercury free brand. I think blue ice if you can get it, will be the safest bet. I am not sure on all brands, because sometimes it's marginal. Get the smallest dose bottles of any of these things so you can try it out.

Actually, I've found that taking vitamin like vitamin C, E and selenium and zinc all seem to work together! All of them are in foods anyway, but because of mercury, we are often depleted badly of antioxidants and it's a good idea to supplement them, perhaps in higher doses than the ordinary healthy person because we are in such need. Apparently they all work together! Complement eachother and I think this is true. Iodine is another one you may want to look into. I was surprised at how much mercury blocks this! And how necessary it is. That's why in mercury you find so many people suffering thyroid issues too. The action of iodine is often blocked. It also can precipitate some detox though. In using it myself, I felt metals starting to move around and felt the symptoms strongly too. I've read a bit about it and though Andy Cutler does not believe it's a chelating agent, I believe that it displaces mercury and I think a certain amount of detox does occur. Selenium the same I feel. I think they are necessary elements because mercury depletes them all so badly, including magnesium and essential fatty acids.

I think glutamine is fine. I used it in my multi and it's just fine. No problems. The ones you may need to watch out for are the ones like direct glutathione, methionine and cysteine! These can cause too much mercury mobilisation symptoms and in some cases, in high doses, it's been quite devastating for some people. For example, I cannot handle garlic at all. I used to though, but then I couldn't. Sometimes in mercury, your tolerances change and sometimes amalgam removal can do that.
