Read this article and follow the links!


Oral Chelation
Heavy Metal Toxicity
You often have in your body tiny pieces of metal, like mercury (from your fillings) or lead, or even iron. They are like time bombs, waiting to cause trouble. These are so tiny that you could say they are almost the size of atoms. Perhaps several atoms, but these are tiny pieces of metal which are, actually, toxic. They are still little-appreciated by traditional medicine -- but they probably cause most health problems! They certainly cause heart disease and cancer!


These pieces of metal can be so small that they can easily get embedded inside some tissue or organ of the body. This little piece of toxic metal can get stuck inside the liver, for instance, or the kidneys, or the heart, or just about anywhere. You could consider that this organ has a "sliver," or a very tiny piece of metal sticking into it. 

There is a mechanism, actually, whereby the tissue or organ tries to protect itself from this dangerous toxic metal, and can grow more tissue AROUND the toxic metal, to cut it off from other parts of the body.

But, there it is, still, this tiny sliver of toxic metal, stuck into your body somewhere. You could have millions of these!


So much for mercury fillings!

Now that's not so bad, but when a free radical happens to bump into one of these tiny pieces of toxic metal, instead of a simple chain-reaction of ONE new free radical being produced, there could be MILLIONS of new free radical produced from this one impact.

Get the idea? The free radical from your latest meal of French Fries, is moving along inside your body, hitting various things, getting stopped, starting a new free radical moving along, and somewhere along the way this little murderous particle hits a tiny piece of toxic metal.

Whoops! We now have 1,000,000 new free radicals created in that split second. Each of them moves off in some new direction, spreading all through the body. Many of them will hit OTHER pieces of toxic metal, causing other MILLIONS of free radicals to become newly created, each of THEM ready to do damage to your DNA. 

Don't worry too much 'cause this has been going on inside your body for years and you're not dead yet!

So, while we try to find ways to stop free radical from creating chain reactions in your body (Vitamin C does this very well, thank you!), we should be far MORE concerned with preventing these free radicals from ever coming into contact with toxic metals in the body.

Very fortunately for us, there is a method of doing this! This method is called oral chelation.


Considering the fact that so many of us ingest supplements from China, and as I have already shown, even PATENT medicines have contaminants (recall that a patent medicine is a medicine that is REQUIRED to have gone through Quality Control testing to be sold in the USA BUT, although it PASSED, we now know that EVEN WHEN SOME COMPANY TELLS US A PRODUCT HAS BEEN TESTED, IT MAY OR MAY NOT BE TRULY FREE OF DEADLY CONTAMINANTS [case in point: how come so many of the imports as cited above contain high levels of metals and other deadly adulterants?]! It is your life you are gambling with, so BE CAREFUL WITH WHO YOU TRUST!), and many of the supps we currenly take have not been tested by a third party for metals, it is probably a wise idea to employ steady oral-chelation therapy to offset any harmful effects that may build up as a result of ingesting deadly metals.

Here is an excerpt from the above linked article:

Guidelines for a successful heavy metal detoxification program using oral chelation
During a heavy metal detoxification program, it is very important to have a high protein diet as the sulfur bearing amino acids in the protein will greatly facilitate detoxification. In short do not attempt to fast and make sure you ingest a lot of protein.

Maintain two to three bowel movements per day. If you are not having this many bowel movements per day, try increasing your intake of psyllium.

Remove toxic metals from the connective tissue with Chlorella.
Chlorella is an important part of the detoxification program, as approximately 90% of the mercury in our bodies is eliminated through the stool. Chlorella is an algae which has protein high levels of chlorophyll. Because it is one of the purest, most potent foods on earth, it is actually impossible to take too much Chlorella.

Detoxify from mercury using garlic, MSM and cilantro.
Start eating garlic regularly, the food rather than a supplement, to enhance sulfur stores. 2-3 cloves a day is an excellent idea. Make sure you crush it to release its active ingredients.

Start taking MSM. MSM is a form of sulfur which will help your body to remove the mercury.

Start taking cilantro. Cilantro will help mobilize mercury out of the tissue so the chlorella can bind to it and allow it to be excreted from the body. Cilantro is available in most grocery stores. I just add mine to the vegetable juice I prepare in my juicer. My favorite source for organic cilantro in 1 pound bags is here.

Take a multi-purpose vitamin which contains all the essential minerals. It is important to have a generally healthy mineral base. The body works better with toxic metals than no metals at all. Enzymes have certain binding sites that require a metal for them to perform their function as a catalyst. When you are deficient in magnesium, sodium, zinc and other minerals, the body does not let go of the toxic metals very easily.

Remove heavy metals using NAC and EDTA.
N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC ) is another very important component of a good mercury detoxification program.

Start taking EDTA on an empty stomach on a daily basis. Click here to learn about the difference between oral EDTA chelation and IV chelation therapy.

Finally, throughout your toxic metal detoxification program, it is imperative to maintain your liver in an optimum state.


Take care, and have a safe, (metal free) happy holidays.

How about finding out if you have an ailment before instituting treatment??

Much of the stuff above is reasonable (NOT EDTA) and is recommended for other health reasons. However keep in mind that many of these pull out good and bad minerals.

It is a reasonable idea to get routine blood testing and one can get screens for heavy metals performed. e.g. LEF.org of the place..vortex...listed.

The great thing about chelation therapy is that there are cross over effects that benefit the entire human organism (do your reading, please, next time before making comments, Dr. Scott). [tung]

I am well aware of what chelation is and who might benefit.

Do what you wish.

First do no harm:

"However keep in mind that many of these pull out good and bad minerals."

I am not going to waste my time replying to you in the future.

That is probably the best idea. [thumb]
