Maybe all the stuff like candida treatment, magnesium etc, does work for people who are not very sick but for the really sick it is not enough unfortunately.

my mental symptoms where so intense that nothing gave me any relief... tried lots of it.... when you detox the mercury your body will respond better to other therapies and treatments.

Detox is really simple. ALA(on a proper schedule)+ Antioxidants + minerals/vitamins that's all what you need. No doctor required.
It's not really about how much Magnesium you take, I guess it's all about what you can absorb, and us with messed up GI tracts from Candida or Mercury won't absorb our minerals properly, maybe thats why it did not work well for me late and you? Just a theory. I am where you are though, all these miracle things and vitamins and minerals never seem to really work for me, which leads me to believe it is the Mercury and I won't get well until I get most of it out! I need to chelate this year, I can't keep losing years off of my life (Potential younger years) because of it and holding off. I guess the time is now.

Nothing gave me any significant and lasting relief. It was scary. The only thing that i can recommend from the therapies above is the raw food diet and orthomolecular doses of vitamins and minerals. But even this was not enough to make me feel really better.





Ditto, I tried alot of these things you did and they might have gave some relief but it never lasted! I feel the same way you did at that time now, frustrated. I feel you hit this on the head in here for me and I need to chelate and get it out of my brain etc., it's just that simple. I am going to use Kombu Kelp (With Alginates) to mop up what comes into my stomach and so it will not reabsorb, that and some ALA and the vitamins and minerals along with it. I have to do those things, that seems to BE KEY!

I believe Vitamin E and Selenium is a must too right? Andy even says that?

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.
