I'm glad you stopped the HMD and cilantro. It would likely simply confuse things and mobilise far too much on it's own, let alone in combination with Cutler's protocol.

You mention exhaustion and that's what happened to me. It's the kind that is almost bone crushing tiredness to where you literally cannot think properly or function and you have almost no choice but to stop the round. I've been there and I know what it's like. But that does indicate you are certainly on the right track, because it would not be doing anything if you weren't. Seriously, without the presence of heavy metals like mercury it's unlikely you'd get any such symptoms. And the fact ALA produced them alone even worse without the DMSA is also strongly indicative - because ALA is simply an antioxidant. So it's unlikely to produce side effects apart from possible flaring up of yeast - and even that may indicate the movement of metals too as one person pointed out because apparently ALA moves the metals out via the feces and perhaps the journey in that area disrupts the flora and flares candida.

Your dose is very low. Gaining such symptoms from such a low dose indicates just how toxic you are. But at least it means that you are hitting the target.



I hope he does the replacement for free, since he took no notice of your bio report and shoved it whatever was available instead. Dentists like this should be liable for such decisions, since it's always more trauma on the teeth to have fillings removed and replaced. So he is responsible for causing you unnecessary stress and possible increased side effects from an incompatible material.

However, it is not known how accurate any of these tests are and often differing compatibility testing can yield contradictory results - which does not help my trust in these tets at all. I have had re-replacements done also a number of times because of finding out they were apparently incompatible, but never recall really any improvements following it. Though I wouldn't rule that out with someone else.

My issue back then was definitely mercury, but because my symptoms got worse following replacments, I blamed the replacement materials (understandable). I was very distressed at my increase in symptoms and didn't realise that the stored mercury was actually shifting out of me and causing most of it. Only chelation began to improve that, replacements didn't do much.

Also mercury (and candida) can both CAUSE multiple chemical sensitivity. So that may also be a cause of people who might be reacting more with their new materials, which they may not have reacted to if they were not so mercury toxic. So regardless of what maybe going on with your replacement materials - you are obviously very metal toxic given the symptoms you are getting when you chelate. It is possible that the replacement materials may be an added burden, which "may"be making that process more difficult, but it's too hard to say. Mercury can cause it all, especially when it's in dumping stage. So symptoms can indeed get FAR worse following amalgam removal and cause many a person to become distressed, confused and desperate.

If it would make you feel more secure in getting materials that have shown to be safe on your biocompatibility testing, then that dentist should definitely replace them - but since he has violated your trust, this is not going to be easy for you to sit in that chair again and trust him for any future procedures.



In order to control candida and parasites, you must be on the proper diet. There is little point in using antifungals when if one continues to feed these organisms via sugars and high carbohydrates. The diet is the main part of treatment. Antifungals are only supplementary. Killing candida does not really cure candida, because it simply grows back again if the grounds for why it's happening are not addressed (e.g. diet).

The diet will not only address candida and parasites, but also helps the immune system and the entire body. It will also help reduce other toxins and even to a point, some heavy metals naturally. It will aid both the gut and the liver, and allow much better grounds for detoxificatin and chelation.

As the body improves in health, things like candida are naturally kept in better balance.

If I can do the diet, anybody can. Since I was a sugar addict to the extreme and at first, I cried from the withdrawal, I smelt toxic and I had headches. It wasn't easy, but when you're sick enough and suffering enough, you'll go through it just to gain any kind of improvement at the end of it. The cravings usually increase at first, but battle it out and they begin to go after a few weeks and improvement should be noted. It was worth the intial difficult to gain what came afterwards. The problem is that so many of us are heavily addicted to high carbohydrates and don't wish to be without them because we crave them. Actually yeast usually craves them and it gives them exactly what they need to remain at high levels in a mercury toxic person (or other immune compromised person). Anybody can do the diet if they are determined enough. There is simply no such thing as treating yeast without the diet. And using antifungals, whilst continuing to feed the organisms, is, if anything, maybe a self defeating programme.

Sorry if this sounds harsh. But there is no such thing as a genuine yeast treatment programme without the diet in place. There maybe some sites that make such claims to sell their product though. But true blue candida forums etc, ALL know how important the diet is. As are the books I have by doctors who believe in candida. Diet is in fact the first part of the treatment programme - and sometimes the only treatment programme. In fact, antifungals are not even meant to be used until the person has first reduced yeast with the diet alone.

PS - Stuart, regarding the mercury. Did you use DMSA alone for a time? If so how long did you do this? And when were your amalgams removed?
