Never give ALA to someone who still has mercury fillings or who recently had mercury fillings removed. Doing so might cause some mercury to be excreted, but also maight cause some mercury to migrate into the the brain.
ALA needs to be used in a controlled manner with a low dosage given every 3 hours(for 3 or more days see the threads here on chelation) and only for someone who has had their mercury fillings replaced at least two or 3 months ago.
This web page gives plenty of information and mentions supplements such as B vitamins, vitamin c, creatine, magnesium malate, zinc picolinate, etc. that can be very helpful and can be taken immediately.
Cilantro should be avoided since its effects are unpredictable.
Oral EDTA might cause mineral deficiencies and make him worse.
http://www.flcv.com/cfsfm.htmlI felt very sick taking ALA without DMSA. With DMSA the side effects are much less. Don't even think about DMSA or ALA until a month after the amalgams were replaced, then DMSA can be started. Around a month pr so after that, one could start taking a small dosage of ALA together with the DMSA.
