 Vitamin Research NewsDecember 2010 Mercury and Candida --[CUSTOMER CORNER]Dear Dr. Meletis, Thank you for mentioning the connection between mercury and candida. That is very interesting. I have also been diagnosed (thru Omega Testing) of having a high concentration of mercury in my system. The more I read lately about candida, the more I am hearing about mercury. Can you make any suggestions on ridding myself of the mercury and also is it a useless battle to try to rid myself of the candida while I still have high mercury in my system? Thanks again, Ms.J --- Dear Ms. J., As you have read, there is a belief by some that candida actually may indirectly protect the body from mercury. There is controversy around this concept, yet it is intriguing. Mercury can theoretically be chelated from the body, yet if not properly removed it can trigger more and sometimes worse symptoms. I have patients with high mercury that through good diet, high non-digestible fiber, 2 to 3 bowel movements per day, and a candida control program of suppportive bontaticals (as found in KandidaPlex), probiotics (such as BioPro) and immune support have shown positive effect, relative to quality of life. So, don't lose hope. As you will also read, some people once yeast overgrowth is addressed, if not possible to fully eradicate, feel the benefits of the lower burden. Of course individual results will vary. Sincerely, Chris D. Meletis, ND (Perhaps this article on 'Mercury and Candida' will help some.) Vitamin Research Products ~
