Bromide detoxing symptoms are horrendous. Adding in mercury detoxing symptoms would create a lot of problems. Most likely the person would have a total break down and would have to stop everything for a few weeks.
Bromide Detox symptoms are hrrendous! That is an understatement lol, they really really suck. I would stay away from larger doses of Iodine if starting out this Mercury Detox from ALA, it alone is a beast in itself. I was taking too much Kelp or it had too much Iodine in it IMO and I did not handle it that well it seemed, I needed to add more minerals to help detox before I started and will next time. Dulse has less Iodine and I handle that alot better, so maybe I can start on that first this time and slowly move up and do it right birdlady. I didn't know what Bromide was before, I sure do now wink. If Iodine detoxes both that can be twice the hell correct? I felt weird and tired all the time for a few weeks, could hardly work like I wanted to and just slept alot longer and felt more out of touch, sound familiar? You feel like you are just going through motions it seems. I am going to start out Selenium very slow, Magnesium slow and then the Dulse in a week or two to get it going again, but I am going to do what I tolerate very well this time and move as I should.



Oh yeah EPA is a must, Good Fish oil a few times a day is VERY IMPORTANT to take when detoxing.

In Sanskrit, tulsi means literally "the incomparable one" and has been revered since ancient times. Tulsi, the holy basil, is said to have grown at the site of Christ’s crucifixion and is associated with St. Basil’s feast.
