But other folks like Andy who are much more researched and qualified would say otherwise and I agree with them. You can do what you want, but I draw the line at telling someone in a low state that its safe when its not proven to be and IS proven NOT to be safe. I have chelated....not for some time. I should again. I don't like to dwell on my underlying poisoning....or any other issues I have. My illnesses do not define me and I just haven't thought about it much since we moved here. I do appreciate the advice you've given me with supplements; I came on this list to remind myself and get motivated to work on my health again, but how you are choosing to chelate is not safe longterm for you either. I'm glad you feel better, and as I've stated, I figure mother nature has ways to help us with this. But mother nature never meant for us to have mercury in our bodies either. God gives us the intelligence "sometimes" to figure out how to deal with things and the proven chelators are safer. Chemicals as you wrote to me...yah - I'd rather not too. But you need to know what you are taking is grabbing it and moving it out and is a true chelator. There may be good formulas out there. The Bio-chelat could be good. But I would NEVER advise anyone to take DMSA randomly or only at night. DMPS you can take every 8 hours and I wish I could get hold of that. But the way you are "prescribing" taking the DMSA is DANGEROUS.....
