Jeanie, saince you are so toxic now, I suggest that you wait until you are less toxic before trying chelation again. Some things that are helping me now are echinacea and goldenseal(see my thread on that), licorice tea, sprinkling plenty of garlic, turmeric, and cayenne pepper on my food(you could also use cinnamon or ginger where appropriate. I have the cinnamon and ginger oils, so I often take those instead. Just 3 or so drops in some water. Oil of oregano also helps). When I feel most toxic, I drink a cup or two of detox tea. Triple Leaf brand and Yogi brand detox tea are good. One important thing when you are detoxifying your body is to be sure that you use the bathroom often enough. Licorice root tea helps with constipation, and is also a diuretic. make sure to drink enough water, and eat enough high fiber foods. Also take a molybdenum supplement. Molybdenum supplements are available in up to 1 mg. I use the one mg by Thorne. The high dosage iodine and Molybdenum are available on Amazon.com

I have recently started taking high doses of iodine(around 15 mg a day). See my thread on iodine. Iodine helps detox from heavy metals.

Does your husband take supplements? If not, then get him to take at least the basics, half a B50 twice a day, and vitamin c 500mg twice a day. After that, you could try to get him to add magnesium. DHEA is helpful as an antiaging supplement, but perhaps should be limited to just 25 mg a day.
