Good afternoon everyone!

I posted this on the amalgam page, but realized that the forum page might be better.  Part of being new to this great site :)

WOW, I had no idea the amount of time and energy (not to mention health and finances) mercury can consume, but so glad I found this site!  Would so appreciate the group’s thoughts on:

  • Opinions of the Cutler protocol vs. Klinghardt/Mercola?
  • Did anyone ever consider metallothionein? I visited a naturopath who suggested this for chelation with the rationale that DMSA is hard on the kidneys and liver.
  • I understand that foods with thiols (high sulphur foods) are to be avoided.  What are some foods that folks have eaten instead?

 

My background:  Had six fillings and got three of them removed with a mercury-free dentist about three weeks ago.  In my early 40’s and was entertaining ideas of having a child (yes, I know I’d need to do this quickly, lol).  I innocently thought removing the fillings was it, but happened to look up detox online and the rest is history.  With the amount of time to detox, I feel like I’d be cutting it really close.

However after learning some of the mercury symptoms with mercury and realizing that I’ve already taken a few missteps without knowing it (taking ALA with fillings for a few months and adding cilantro here and there to my diet) I am weighing removal more heavily.  Perhaps I can adopt, but that’s another item.  

Healthwise, I eat a pretty healthy diet – organic foods, plenty of green leafy veggies and minimal fruits, hardly any sugar, beans, brown rice, drink lots of water, was considering becoming macrobiotic but have been having chicken again lately.  Exercise three-five times/week and vitamins include fish oil, turmeric, vit C, CoQ10, milk thistle, selenium, vit D, digestive enzymes, iron (sometimes), zinc,  and an adrenal support blend with Ashwagandah, ginseng and holy basil.

Would love to hear from the group on if the removal has been worthwhile and if it’s a bad idea to stop halfway through removal to consider conceiving.  I figure if my body has ‘learned to live’ with mercury for this long, how bad would it be to go forward with kids.  If my body has learned to adapt with six fillings, it’s still getting exposure, just half of what it got before.

Sorry for the long post and thanks for any and all responses!

Best,

Catherine
