I can understand how this argues againts candida/methyl b12 and perhaps even vitamin c/selenium but I dont get how this argues againts la even if ti does decrease methyl-mercury clearance from the liver.

after all:

a) if u cut out methyl b12, bad flora/candida (hi james;)), selenium u should very much decrease the PRODUCTION of methyl-mercury and thus worry less about the bilary clearance

b) that's what the chelation breaks are for- to restore biochemistry after ALA eg. restore bilary extrection.

c) ALA - if used under the right protocole - will chelate the mercury out of you in the longterm, and will clear the brain MUCH better then dmsa alone.
