Thiols in turmeric? I doubt it. No one claims that turmeric chelates heavy metals. Turmeric increases bile flow, which helps detoxify the liver. Turmeric also kill parasites. Perhaps a strong reaction to turmeric might mean that your gall bladder isn't working so well, you might have a parasite problem, or the stimulation of the gall bladder is causing many toxins to be released into the bile, but that your body is reabsorbing the toxins? I guess it is a good idea to eat extra soluble fiber when one is taking turmeric. Many here have had parasites.


Toxins in the liver released through the intestines must go through the bile. Fiber helps trap bile so it isn't recycled. That is why it is important to eat plenty of soluble fiber while chelating. While DMSA cause most of the mercury it chelates to be released via the urine, ALA causes mercury to be released via the bile. The worst thing is to be constipated while chelating. Since bile is so important for detoxification, and fat stimulates biles production, it helps explain why some on a low fat diet do so poorly. Perhaps a good strategy is to eat some nuts or other vegetable fat together with foods that have soluble fiber.
