You're welcome. Yeah the Andy Cutler questions/answers is pretty good I think. Puts it in a nutshell.

How much ALA is in the supplement? It's quite common for it to be included in certain supplements. It's a pity, because overall the supplement maybe really good. But the risk of using ALA with amalgams, or too early on with high blood levels of mercury, or used randomly is not worth it.

I was given a supplement to help my body "detox". It was just to prepare me. I had not looked at the ingredients properly and didn't realise it had ALA in it. The symptoms I got from it were HORRIBLE. Though this indicates an imbalance in me and the inability to handle toxins and eliminate them properly, it still shows the risks are high when this stuff is not used properly. I tried to keep taking it, but it was utterly intolerable.

So I had to stop. Though you may not be getting such symptoms, just know that ALA can cross over the blood brain barrier. So you see the risk if it's travelling through your body and taking any mercury with it.....

Your diet sounds really clean. But can I ask if you consume any eggs/meats? It is recommended that mercury toxic people consume these protein foods. I'm not sure why exactly, but something in these animal proteins that is very important in healing from this condition. Hal Huggins for example suggests that he's not had much luck with curing vegetarians. He also suggests butter too as a help for mercury poisoned people. Enough salt too seems to be important.



Yes, she seems to be really good with the diet side of things. She also agrees with Hal Huggins by the way! The necessity of meat/egg protein and butter! Though I do not consume all the prescribed daily fat intake (tablespoons of it). I don't personally feel that it's absolutely necessary to push a prescribed amount into the body on a daily basis. It is very hard to meet her quota and somehow it doesn't quite seem natural to do so (to me anyway). I consume fat for sure, but I consume what I enjoy. I cook and sometimes eat some butter. I leave the fat on the meat and eat it all with the meat. I take fish oil capsules etc. I figure I'm getting enough.

However, she does not seem to feel that chelation is necessary for mercury toxicity. Her claim is that the diet will do the job. She believes the fats and the good foods will naturally chelate the body of mercury and other toxins. However slow, she does seem to think it's enough. I don't quite agree with her, though I do think the diet has much to offer a toxic person and it has indeed aided me and possibly those who do not have very serious poisoning may find it could well be enough. But I don't believe it is THE answer for mercury poisoning. I think the diet is a part of the solution. Again, that too depends on the person. Some people may do better including more high carbs in their diet like some fruit intake, some non gluten grain, nuts/seeds, high carb vegetables, etc etc.

I think though if a person finds that high carbs of any kind make them miserable or makes symptoms worse or not much better than straight sugar? Then her diet will probably be ideal. I do most of her diet, but I include almonds/brazil nuts and acidophilus yoghurt. That's apparently a "no no", but I'm not keen on going any stricter.



Wow, he sounds almost like a biologic dentist already lol! Good on him for excluding toxins like mercury from his premises! He's obviously pretty clued up OR he's just decided there are better alternatives and it's not necessary to use amalgam anymore.

I'm glad he will use protection for you. I hope he will thoroughly remove the amalgam. As some do not like to drill too deep and may leave a bit behind. Just make it clear to him that this is VERY important to you and you're not doing it for "cosmetic reasons".

Not sure about the Algin and polysaccarides side of things. The main thing is to find a protocol to chelate mercury OUT of you and one that works and is tolerated by you. And as you know, I highly recommend Cutler's.
