Hi Dud,

No problem. I hope that the supplements will help you. When Cutler says vitamin B complex (50's), he does not mean to take one tablet/pill of that amount 3-4 times a day. He means if that pill/tablet needs to be taken only once or twice a day, then split it up, so you're taking it more often to make it more effective. If you need to split up one tablet three times, so be it. Unless you can find a low dose B complex that already says on the instructions it can be taken 3-4 times a day. Most of them maybe only once per day due to the high potency. Again, simply split it up if you need to.

Yes, 50 mg is quite a lot of zinc, but mercury really does a job on the minerals and increasing them can really help. You only need to take it once or twice a day, depending on the dose tablet/pill you get.

Just a reminder. Cutler recommends the follow supplements for most people with mercury. This is a very basic outline of it though, there are others that can be added:

Vitamin C (3-4 times per day - 500 - 1000 mg 3/4 times during the day).

Vitamin B complex (3-4 times per day, split caps/tablets if they are high potency once/twice daily ones).

Milk thistle - 3-4 times per day

Magnesium (3/4 times per day). Keep an eye on dose. If instructions say only once or twice per day, then split as you might have to with the B complex. Depends upon dose.

(I personally take calcium/magnesium together in equal ratios).

Vitamin E, once/twice per day. About 500 IU (once or twice).

zinc - once or twice per day.

Flaxseed oil - 1-2 tablespoons per day (or more). High in omega 3. This can be combined with borage oil (to get more of a balance of omega 6). THough most of us are lacking more in omega 3. Fish oil is ok, but to get enough essential fatty acids, one would have to take alot of it, which is highly expensive. Flaxseed oil seems to be a cheaper option.

You can mix the oil in yoghurt or cottage cheese. Tastes really nice.

Apart from that, it's basically sticking to a healthy diet and Dr Hal Huggins instructions on that seems to be most suited (at least to me). With exclusion of all fish (even low mercury as this can hinder excretion of mercury and increase toxicity in those more suseptible and sensitive).
Exclusion of all sugar, wheat/gluten, caffeine and milk (butter is ok, butter is very healing and Huggins believes it can naturally chelate mercury).

Having enough salt in the diet is necessary also. THough he thinks table salt is just fine (no doubt the iodised kind), I personally feel someone would be better getting a natural salt where naturally occuring minerals are present, though you might need to supplement iodine. natural salt does not contain enough (I'm living proof ot that). Plus mercury displaces iodine, competes with it and can block it's action in the thyroid gland. So many functions rely on this. This is why many get very cold body temperature apparently.

Getting enough animal fats and protein in the diet is also very important for hormones and healing and protection. Butter, meats (chicken, turkey, beef, etc etc). Free range eggs etc. I also have beef liver which is excellent for iron and B vitamins.

Vegetables are very healthy too. Very important and often I have them raw which is even better, or steamed or stir fried. Contains more nutrients when done like that, rather than boiling them. You may need to stick to low carbohydrate ones in case you have a really bad yeast problem. Depends on severity of yeast.

Fruit may need to be eliminated or reduced, again depending on yeast severity. Fruit is very healthy, but contains natural sugars. Which is healthy, but not so great if you have bad yeast problems. It may feed yeast almost as bad as direct sugar. Then again, you maybe ok with it.

Grains (non wheat - non gluten) maybe ok too. Again if you have severe yeast problems, you may need to reduce or eliminate all grains due to them being high in carbs. It does depends on the person and what they do well with and what they don't.

I used to do just fine on non wheat/non gluten grains, fruits, high carb vegetables etc and even milk, I got away with that just fine. Though I had to eliminate sugar, wheat/gluten, yeast.
And coffee was another very bad one too. STeer clear of it. Black tea "may"be ok, but be careful, still has caffeine.

Herbal tea is alright and healthful. Find ones that are good for the kidneys and liver etc. Green tea is also very good and is an antioxidant.

My diet is more restrictive because I am dealing with infection. So I can only survive on meats, eggs (free range), raw nuts (almonds/brazil), sunflower/pumpkin seeds, acidophilus sugar free yoghurt, low carb vegetables and the good fats. I mix the flaxseed oil in my yoghurt. It is restrictive, but it's healthy and right now I cannot handle any fruit or grain or high carb vegetables. So it's a bit annoying in that respect, but I survive.
