Argh..just lost what I wrote. My fault. Thanks for this. Question - I forgot, but what chelators do go through what channels? I use to use both DMSA and ALA (maybe it was too much) and remember now why I got discouraged. It always seemed to put a great strain on my kidneys. I would rather go slowly myself. Maybe I wasn't drinking enough....

Boy - if sweating helps I should be dumping. Wow - duh. NO WONDER I'M FEELING LIKE GARBAGE. I need to be hitting the C, etc. and drink a LOT more water right now. I hadn't heard of mercury rising till this list. Knew people did saunas to help, etc., but lived in Alaska when I was really into it before. Then we moved here and I have hot flashes to boot.

I like Alacer mineral ascorbates. I felt pretty descent when I was using that. Have been out for a while. I do take melatonin for its anti-oxidant properties and since I'm a hard core insomniac likely cause the mercury is in my pituitary and hypothalamus. (Thyroid is definitely affected). I need to take my Modifilan, too, and get some Algin. Same thing in essence, but I trust Nature's Sunshine. Plus I have to capulize the Modifilan to keep it affordable. I use to be so good about all this. Thanks for all this. Really is motivating. SoSick...not trying to argue. I just think if you are going to use actual chelators you have to be very very careful.

Oh - sulfur question. I take garlic every night. (Pills). Are garlic, etc. and MSM chelators? I never have quite gotten that. Doesn't that have something to do with the whole Phase thing with the liver which I also never completely got? I think I'm a fast metabolizer... )(Forget which phase that is - I should go look it up). Can anyone explain that in lay terms? Thank you!
