Is it possible to completely chelate mercury with natural supplements only? I've read so many warnings about DMPS such as it can leach nutrients from the body causing side effects. I'm sure my body is chronically deficient in certain nutrients because of the health problems I've had related to mercury toxicity for over a decade. So I'm really concerned about using a product that could cause harm, even though I'm DESPERATE to rid my body of heavy metals because I want my health back asap.
There will be many who will tell you it's entirely possible to do it with natural substances only. Whether or not they or anyone else has achieved this is not certain. It also depends on what you consider "natural". For example, ALA could be considered natural.
The way I see it, it is completely against nature to stuff some kids mouth full of mercury. And so I don't see any qualms about incorporating "unnatural" substances like DMSA or DMPS to assist in the rectification of this travesty. I have had good experience with DMSA in fact I found it helped to eliminate candida colonies from my intestines (from it's sulfur content contributing to what some may misbrand as a candida "flareup"). I think you will be OK so long as you get sufficient nutrition and take adequate breaks in between rounds of chelation, like how Cutler recommends.
Thank you. One more question...is DMPS more effective than DMSA? I read DMSA is good for lead and some other metals, but you really need to take DMPS if you want to remove mercury.
I think DMPS can remove mercury faster than the other stuff. But a lot of folks can't get it prescribed to them. I live in CT, and it's actually illegal here!
That Cutler protocal of ALA, DMSA and 1 more......forgot the other...sorry, but seems to be the safest, taken every 3 or 4 hours, for a few days, then break, then again. The 3 or 4 hours, even through the night prevents the mercury from redistributing which can be extremely dangerous.. keeps it moving out the body. I'm no expert, but that's what I've gathered so far.
I have some work to be done in my mouth, so I'm not at the point to do anything yet. After a few thousand $$$$, I'll be ready to do this!
Gibby I feel your pain. I'm waiting until I have enough money to get the six fillings out that I have. We'll share healing stories when we're both done! Good luck :)
