The sad fact is, though, that dentists are the most vulnerable! The ones who still use or did use amalgam are poisoned themselves. It isn't pleasant to face all this stuff. I don't want to be overly paranoid, either, but its a toxic world now. And I think most people do have mercury in them but don't know what is going on. I use to tell my niece that milk was mucous forming. She came down to visit and was very sick with a sinus infection and was downing milk with chocolate syrup one glass after another. (Yet disgustingly she is a lean little thing...just built to be). She wouldn't hear it when I tried to connect the two. Their family is always sick. Same with my SIL. They own a donut shop and those kids were sick all the time growing up. We really don't get sick a whole lot. (I say this while having a sore throat and having had a UTI a while back). I have chronic issues, but don't get colds very often cause I saw the correlation with milk and my sinus issues years and years ago.... Same principal... Had to just learn to ignore those kinds of issues with them. My SIL, though, refers to me as one of "those people" with regards to silly little things like avoiding MSG, etc. : ) Now my nieces MIL is getting it from them. (And I've come to the conclusion it is most definitely THEM...not me. I've bent over backwards to see their viewpoints and even lowered my own standards for them at their house at least. I inevitably get sick, too. They push and push it and completely ignore my tastes or even allergies AND my kids intolerance to dairy and if I bring it up eyes are rolled. All they serve is ham, dairy and donuts : ) (Oh - and soda. I asked to drink some of their bottled water when I was there last - they offered all the soda you could drink, but I'm not a soda drinker.... That got to my SIL so bad she brought it up since when she came to visit here cause her daughter lives in this state. She actually told my husband "I don't remember having bottled water when we were kids." If I have people at my house with health issues that require a special diet, or even preferences like vegetarianism I completely respect it and cater to it. You can go too far in that, too, but can't for the life of me get them ignoring something that actually causes negative effects.

It sounds like there is what I call a subculture now to categorize those who are aware of things. (Conspiracy??) Yep - sure is!!! I don't want to believe it either, but its pretty bad when even people like Jim Carrey and the guy from KISS have kids with autism and are coming out against it. This is kind of new to me...all the forums and online societies. It saved me when I was homeschooling though....(Online support) That would be a whole other but related in a way subject. But I am so proud of my girls and how they've turned out now!!!! I did the right thing. (Not saying everyone should, but it was the right decision for us).
