Using a low dosage of just DMSA will let you start chelating sooner after amalgam removal. The issue is that your body is now toxic not just from the mercury, but also from candida and/or parasites being killed from the parasite cleanse. Imo you need to focus more on detoxification before starting the chelation. I suggest adding herbs like licorice root, dandelion,and alfalfa to your regimen. I also like msm for detoxification and to fight parasites, but some here will tell you not to take it since it may redistribute mercury. I like high sulphur foods like eggs and broccoli as I feel better when eating these. Some will tell you they feel worse after eating these. Of course I feel a need to mention raw garlic again, even though I read your concerns about smelling like garlic.
