I was taking DMSA with ALA for a long time. i have probably done close to 100 rounds of chelation, and I don't think it has helped much.

It is not the price of ALA that is the problem, but the side effects. My sleep is already so messed up that chelating with ALA on the Cutler protocol seems out of the question, at least for now. I think the cilantro and iodine are helping though.
