Hi Bex,

Thankyou for the informative and helpful post.

I would not attempt taking DMSA randomly due to the points
you mention but appreciate you pointing them out.
I did take it for 9months Cutler style or so and
stopped due to candida and cost.

I never had any amalgams or fillings not one. I started to
become ill in a holiday to New York at 21 was first time
visiting the States, Im from Scotland. I ate about 20 raw
oysters maybe they were contaminated with mercury but
Im not sure. I went on a Tuna diet 6 tins a day for
2months at 24ish I think this maybe the culprit.


Agreed on the cleaner diet it helps me feel better but I generally
have a clean diet since I have been into health and fitness
since 13 and competed in amateur boxing at 16.
Plus my parents bought us up on fresh vegetables, fish, chicken,
pork, soups etc No junk food or fizzy drinks.

Saunas is not something I have done but I would have to
leave the house for that. I have left the house 5x max this year.
Yeah I use to order 20kg of epsom salts every couple month from
a friend, he sold in bulk on eBay. I always felt soaking
in the hot epsom salt bath it was releasing mercury as felt
horrible after them, not sure how it would be now though.

I have a home gym and work on that 3-4x a week, 2hour sessions
which consist of shawdowboxing, corework, circuit training, skipping,
heavy bag 6-10 3-4min rnds etc For a while I was training 5-6x a week very intensely
even during chelation days but I always felt my body was heavier
during these chelation days and recovery was slower so felt best it
be better just to rest on these days or do some very light
exercises.

Thats what Iam thinking its taking a while but just couple day ago I read
on the frequent chelation group a guy named Kai chelated for
2yrs with no progress like myself. He then dropped his dose down to
1mg ALA and started improving.I may give this ago but the differences
between him and I are.


Kai : ALA at 6-12mg
Stevie : 50-150mg ALA of the bat

A few folk on the FCG recommened to chelate with ALA for few more months,
nothing to loose and progress should come.Not much else can do so yeah
will be little bit more patient and see.

Cheers,

Stevie
