When I did my original detox from my first round of mercury poisoning, I didn't take any at all because I didn't know about it.

When I first realized that I was mercury toxic, I have my fillings removed within weeks and my detox consisted of 3 rounds of DMPS IV (bad idea, I stopped) and chlorella and protein drinks every morning and exercise. That's it. I didn't know enough to do anything else.

Now that I am experiencing mercury toxicity for the second time, I am using algin off and on as necessary. During bad stretches, I has worked miracles to help me.

I also use it when eating one of my favorite foods that is loaded with mercury: salmon. Without it (when having salmon), I have horrible mercury symptoms. With algin, I have no (zero) mercury symptoms. I have tried salmon with and without algin many times now—probably 15 to 20—over the past few years and it never has failed to prevent symptoms.

I hope this helps.
