Hi Fuggles, If you feel ok with cilantro and feel it is helping you, then you maybe ok with it. But I'd be cautious. Here are comments from Andy Cutler regarding the brain chelator Cilantro: These comments are in relation to liquid cilantro: http://onibasu.com/archives/am/2414.html Patient reports do indicate it moves mercury around. This means that if you use it properly it can detox you, and if you use it improperly you can really mess yourself up. Unfortunately, there is no pharmacokinetic information on the active ingredient in cilantro (nobody even knows what it is) so you get to guess what dose and administration schedule is both safe and effective. There is tons of pharmacokinetic information on alpha lipoic acid, so my suggestion is to try LA, and if you just can't use that then to try cilantro very carefully. I am NOT saying that cilantro is ineffective. I believe cilantro is effective. I am saying that it is unwise to take unnecessary risks by using cilantro instead of lipoic acid if you can indeed use LA.
So it's effective, but you can see why he's hesistant in recommending it! ALA is a wiser choice for the reasons given above.
