Are there any foods that I should avoid eating whilst I still have my amalgams? Because a dentist told me number 1 to avoid is eggs, number 2 chicken, number 3 spring onions and leeks?

I have avoided these foods for about a month and i must say that I am feeling better. Why? Are there any more foods that I should avoid and why?

If you can get chicken and eggs free range, you should be ok. I think the reason for this is, I hear they can sometimes feed chickens a fish meal (which could contain mercury), so then through them, there might be risk for contamination. Also, non free-range can contain antibiotics and other undesirables.

I gather the reason for the onions/leeks is because they are very high sulfur foods and I think a dentist mentioned that because of their high sulfur content, they can absorb the mercury from the soil that they were in ....not sure about that one. I do not get problems from eating onions or leeks and I eat loads of them, yet I am hyper sensitive to mercury and react very easily from anything that is contaminated with it. Perhaps it depends where a person lives, I don't know.

Yes, you should avoid all fish, all wheat/gluten products, milk and caffeine. Fish of course is a no brainer (mercury contaminated and even low mercury fish may not be ok either, I react to all of them and they can make you ill, it's not worth it).

Wheat is apparently treated with mercury fungicide, plus many mercury toxic people react severely to wheat and the gluten in it. Gluten can mess up your gut and prevent/hinder proper absorption of nutrients in the process (it can act as a glue and for those messed up by mercury, they may not be able to digest it).

Milk can apparently hinder mercury detoxification for reasons I do not understand, plus it's a pretty high allergy food. You would probably be fine with acidophilus yoghurt though (sugar free) and butter is fine. In fact, butter is wonderful for mercury toxic people and Hal Huggins believes it's so good it helps chelate mercury itself (not sure about that one though).

Caffeine, again can interfere with detox of mercury, stresses the adrenal glands and does other things inside the body that is not good on a mercury toxic person (or anybody really). Coffee is the WORST. Some get away with some black tea, but herbal is best.

Sugar is a disaster. Sugar lowers immunity and is responsible for so many things going wrong in your body, that the stuff is almost a poison. Eliminate it, I mean completely. It will feed organisms in your gut - candida etc. And most people with mercury have candida problems.

Apart from that? I cannot see issues with much else. Ask your dentist/doctor is free range eggs and chicken is ok? Just so that might give you more variety, but if he says no, that they've been tested too and found to have mercury contamination, then you'd be wise to keep away I guess too. See what he says.

Your diet would be quite limited, but that is very normal for someone toxic who is trying to get well. Sometimes you have to be drastic for a time until you recover.

So basically, the ones I absolutely had to eliminate when mercury toxic were:

Sugar
Wheat/gluten
Seafood (all)
Milk
Caffeine (coffee)
yeast

As for anything else? That is very individual and you have to figure that out sometimes on your own. If you have a very bad case of yeast (candida), you may need to limit or even eliminate natural sugar/carb foods like fruits, honey, high carb vegetables like potatoes and corn etc. It does depend on your condition. But DEFINITELY eliminate all sugar and sugar foods (cookies, icecreams etc etc), wheat/gluten containing foods like breads/crackers/cereals and find a non wheat/gluten kind (if you are ok with grains).

I hope this helps

yeah thanks for that. I hate fish so I am alright on not eating that. I have also been taking flax oil and hemp oil on my own accord. I just feel better since stopping eating eggs, chicken and onions!!

My heart used to race when exposed to EMR in my garden from a mobile mast. Now it doesn't. I am too frightened to start eating eggs or chicken again at the moment. I cut out coffee months ago as well. I just drink hot water and lemon in the day time.

Certain foods must mobilize mercury in my body and when I am in strong EMR fields thats when I feel the ill effects (heart racing, burning sensation on my scalp)

A couple of months ago I started taking a blue green algae called 'crystal mana'. Man, that stuff made me sweat toxins. The weird thing that it did when I was exposed to EMR, was make my kidneys hurt. My thought on that is that the crystal mana mobilized mercury into my kidneys and the electromagnetic radiation attacted the mercury to it like a magnet!

I am to get myself a diary and make notes of everything I eat and how I felt at the time. I'm going to document my diet and its effect on my sensitivity to microwave radiation.

Things that I eat will change once I get my amalgams removed as I will want to stir the mercury up and chuck it out! But at the moment I don't want to stir it up, so I have to watch that I don't eat a mercury stir up type of food!

I believe that coriander (cilantro) is also something to be avoided when the fillings are still in because it mobilizes mercury. I made the mistake of eating a lot of it once and I'm sure if aggravated symptoms.

don't like coriander. chewing gum is another one I gave up and I think was the worst. Stood at my front door in the main beam of the moblie phone mast, chewing gum used to make my face feel numb and really foggy.

Chewing gum is the worst thing for someone with amalgams to use. Even sugar free gum is horrible, as chewing gum causes much greater levels of mercury to be released from amalgams.

As for fish, I think it is a bad idea to give up fish entirely, but one should instead just eat moderate portions of low mercury high omega 3 fish such as sardines, salmon, or herring.

As for eggs, I feel better after eating them. Garlic sometimes triggers a strong reaction as it destroys candida in the digestive tract, and the candida toxins are released and absorbed by the body.

Consuming any fish at all, even "low" mercury fish for a toxic person is an unwise move. I did this thinking it was still a good idea for health reasons and began consuming canned salmon and sardines, both from the lower mercury areas and I felt the effects soon after. They don't just disappear either and can go on for weeks as they did with me. Never again.

This interfers with detoxing mercury and even small amounts can make a suspetible person sick. It is not advised to consume any seafood whatsoever and is not even worth the risk in my opinion. I would opt for mercury free/tested fish oil supplements instead. They do not seem to pose the risk. Even then, some people can still react to such supplements if they still may contain some mercury. I remember having cod liver oil and becoming toxic straight afterwards. I had amalgams at the time admittedly, but the oil obvously was contaminated.

It's up to the person, but all I can say is, what is the point in taking in more mercury, however small you may think it is, when you are trying to eliminate it? Insignificant amounts of mercury are often significant to people like us.

Yeah, eggs are great, and high in sulfur as well as protein. I love them and eat them almost everyday. I'd opt for free range though, not battery. They are a healing food in my opinion, as is butter. Garlic is good too, but still high in sulfur, so both foods and others like them can mobilise mercury and as you said, kill off yeast which creates reactions as well. Some people cannot handle these foods, or have to lessen them. Some do really well on them. I think they can create healing reactions as well which might be misinterpreted as allergy when it may not be. I've had that experience with foods and some reactions are good, rather than bad. I think you get to know yourself pretty well with what's happening.
