Some years ago I remember buying a shirt from a secondhand store and noticing that it had what looked to be deodorant caked on it. I felt weird buying it but it was a really nice shirt so I did with the thought that I could wash it off and remove the metallic smell that it had in the left arm of the shirt. I wore the washed shirt and took it off after realizing that under my left arm, it started to have the same metallic odor. For years, my left arm continued to smell like metal. Recently, I began to feel the worst pain under my left arm that traveled deep into the left upper part of my chest. I read that turmeric could be used to chelate heavy metals, and so I decided to take the tincture I had and rub some under my arms and chest to see if the metallic smell would go away, and it did! It took about half an hour for me not to feel the throbbing pain. I smell normal again and after some days of treatment the pain is gone.

Poor Methylation / Mineral Imbalances
I had tests come back showing my thallium levels were moderately above safe limits.
I lost a lot of my hair. And my digestive system and some muscular areas have been stuck wasting and in pain for 4 years now.
My doc dint help. My naturopath didnt suggest potassium. Just saunas and b3 and NAC. B3 and NAC make me lose my mind tho.
I find potassium helps. But, they say prussian blue and charcoal too. I am entertaining a purchase of lab grade prussian blue, but I dont like that this is all I can find. I want usp or reagent grade so there is less impurity. But its all RX.
I could take a leap and try an online doc and show them my labs and offer to take a new one too jist to get an RX.
I have been very ill and all the symptoms of thallium are present. I had acute poisoning and lost feeling in my extremeties for months, began losing my hair, my mind, major charlie horses, quit breathing in my sleep all the time, and psychosis...every day. Unsure who did it.
But I did make an enemy or two by sticking up for others in the the past in big ways... I need to heal.
Any input is appreciated.

Clay Baths
Heavy Metal Detox Baths
★★★★☆
The recipe is quite simple - it's one cup of each ingredient. This is to detoxify your body from heavy metals that we get from many foods and environmental toxins.
1 Cup of each ingredient is added to a warm to hot bath. Soak 15-20 minutes.
* Borax
* Epsom salt
* Baking soda
* Pink Himalayan sea salt
(I also add 2-3 drops of my favorite essential oil. Any of these are great lavender, citrus, eucalyptus, frankincense & myrth) Choose any you'd like.
Take bath 3x's in one week. Then wait about a month or more before doing this again.
I do it every other month for a week or 3 baths with a day between baths. Personally I'm feeling so much better after 2nd bath. 3rd is recommended for full detoxification. Helps level your PH also.

I want to have a hair analysis test done to test for heavy metals and mineral deficiencies.
Any advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

There are a multitude of symptoms, such as dopamine problems, memory loss, arthritis, lack of energy, confusion, headaches, and many more. Scientists have studied mold as a super battery,
I will post links to the Smithsonian institute to allow you to explore the bio stuff in scientific language
(http://www.smithsonianmag.com/innovation/could-mold-power-batteries-future-180958527/)...
What the fungus is doing is attaching to the metals in your body, and literally making you an antennae for the multitude of RADIO SIGNALS-(frequencies). Some people twitch, feel vibrations, experience pain, and can hear language in the vibrations. Not hallucinating. The audio has been recorded and analysed and confirms distorted radio type conversations, after their ears acclimate to the constant barrage of radio signals 24hrs a day, every day. The moral of this post is, that, the Targeted Individuals phenomena is REAL.(T.I. is just the wrong way to describe it). That, is because, everyone, with 2 or more metals in their body, have the means, inside their bodies, to become a battery, or, receptor or, repeater/ electrode... To/for/by the radio frequencies Whether or not you are James Bond, or, Evil dictator, or, Sherlock Holmes....you are exposed.... TIME TO DETOXIFY YOUR BODY OF METALS. It WILL SUCK to detoxify..
So, have a few days off, to let the purge begin. Epsom salt, in bath and intErnally, Borax/Boron, do a search online for potassium oxide, to kill the mogellens like film on your skin, and inside, benzonite clay to bind the metals and carry them outside body... Kill the crap thats making everybody crazy, zombie like, irrational, emotionally inept, lethargic and even suicidal!!!? You must maintain at least the expulsion of the metals, for the frequency harassment symptoms to cease to effect you..neurologically, and biologically...because the frequencies are used all around you and it doesnt look like theyre going to slow the progression of frequency possibilities in any field of practice, anytime soon.
I would like to express my gratitude for earthclinic, and lookoutfacharlie, for adding the multiprocess to which an information seeking individual can access SOLUTIONS to problems that are facing us in this very unhealthy time in our lives. Helping one another is the key to humanity's success. Stay focused. Stay vigilant about your well being. Address your concerns, instead of ignore them. Only THEN, will you experience a grasp at reality. Go forth and multiply good deeds, ethics, and common sense..... LOVE THY NEIGHBOR... Everyone in the world is experiencing effects from toxic levels of a multitude of radio frequencies.

Now, I take activated charcoal frequently and NEVER have any side effects except the ocassional diarrhea. Same with parasite formulas. So I am very sure the cilantro IS pulling heavy metals, god knows what, out of me!
Continuing this regime every 3-4 days because I found it too intense to do every day. Will be curious to hear if others are having side effects when they take cilantro for heavy metal clearing. Please report!!
P.S. Suggest you drink this alongside lunch or dinner and NOT on an empty stomach.
For your grandson, I read Coconut oil can reduce swelling of tonsils and adenoids, adults can hold in back of mouth but just ingesting would also work just not as fast. Thinking you could also give coconut cream, coconut yoghurt and coconut milk to speed up the process. Maybe coconut cream ice cream would be palatable to him, I'm just remembering his sensory issues. Best to you and your grandson, please research suggestions before attempting.

Before you take the time to do a formal complaint to the Dentistry Board, you need to mobilize that mercury out of your system! As most of us are, if you are mineral deficient, the mercury will bind to sites in your bones and organs as well as be free-floating in your bloodstream - and mercury has an affinity for brain tissue. Do some extensive searches on amalgam removal and the chelation-type detox you need to implement, ideally under the care of an ND who can measure levels and properly treat you. I would consider withholding payment if the dental care was not as described and essentially contracted for. Best to you.

Liver Cleanse
Almost 5 years ago, I did a liver cleanse consisting of apple cider, garlic, lemon juice and olive oil. I didn't read the directions carefully and drank 10 days worth in one sitting. Within 15 minutes, I felt different. Within an hour, I had a major panic attack. I used rescue remedy or something like that to calm my system down. This was the start of a horrendous experience. I had through the roof, constant anxiety and insomnia. I was prescribed different medications to help with the anxiety and insomnia. Unfortunately, nothing worked and the medications caused horrible side effects. When I didn't take sleeping tablets, I was unable to sleep. I was anxious all day. My digestion was damaged. Most foods brought on worse anxiety. Over the next 4 months, I spiraled out of control and into clinical depression. I lost 18 pounds. At this point, I was finally put on an antidepressant that helped with sleep, anxiety and depression. The next 4 years were focused on getting better. I've been off the antidepressant for about 5 months.
Western medicine was unable to find anything wrong with me. I was forced to look outside of the box.
I've gone to numerous alternative practitioners during this time to figure out what happened and how to address it. The theory is that I released heavy metals into my system which my body was not able to excrete and that these heavy metals were absorbed throughout my body, including in my brain.
By chance, I have met two other women who did cleanses, one a liver cleanse and the other a coffee enema, who both had horrendous experiences as well which resulted in long term health issues. It has been a horrendous experience for each of us.
I recall coming to your website years ago to find ways to improve my health. Over the years I have googled this issue to see if anyone else has had similar experiences in order to find a solution. I have not seen anything on the web to date and thought maybe your website might be interested in sharing my experience an making people aware of the possible risks.
If you've read this far, thank you. My goal is not to create fear, only to educate people on the possible risks when doing a liver cleanse.
Thank you
Mercury Toxicity
Careful at first. You'll definitely get a flu like reaction for a few weeks if you take too much too soon. I recommend 1 tsp a day to start, then work up to 1 tsp per meal. That may be enough but you can go as high as 1 tblspn per meal.
The other wonderful treatment for candida is boron (sometimes called ti-boron). Boron used to be abundant in food, but due to modern farming, it is extremely low. Boron kills candida. I currently take 6mg (2 capsules) with each meal and it helps a lot with keeping the candida in check when I'm not taking DE.
Another recommendation is to take 1 tsp turmeric mixed with 1 tblspn of coconut oil daily. (or up to 3 times daily) They both kill candida, esp when DE is removing the biofilm, and turmeric is also highly anti-inflammatory and helps with the candida symptoms.
Remember to drink plently of water and you may want to consider a liver support like Dandy Tea. That's what its called, google it. It tastes like coffee or tea when mixed in water. Or you could just take a dandelion pill I guess.
Oh! And start making your own probiotic kefir and sauerkraut or kimchi!! We used to make coconut kefir by the gallon and would take a tablespoon with each meal. We could eat wheat and almost anything we wanted without feeling the candida take over.....
Hope this info helps!

I heard that with heavy metal chelation - you should do it gradually.
Activated charcoal is good for pulling toxins and metals out of the body.
Diet is also important. I was suffering from daily chronic migraines. I gave up gluten, sugar, and dairy. I have only had one headache in three months and I think it was because I was dehydrated.
Look into Ayurvedic enemas. It is very common in Ayurvedic medicine to do them.
Vassant Ladd is an excellent resource. He's published several books on medicine. He has a clinic in NM and an online shop.
Good luck.
Sometimes too much cleansing can shock the system.

I had a few nights where I thought I might have to go to ER. I was afraid to go to sleep, as I might not wake up. I can only explain it as almost an out of body experience, with severe pain and pressure in my head, pain in joints. Certain I have overload of most metals, as I finally found out what I had a year and a half ago, called a Burton's line on my lower gums. Directly related to Lead.
I have been much sicker, except weirdly, I experience times of clarity that I haven't had in 35 years. So I think it is working. I'm afraid it will take a year or longer for me as I've been sick for 40 years at least. Since I was a kid, I remember. Infections, extreme fatigue. So many symptoms for so long.
Any thoughts? I have been thinking about doing organic coffee enemas to stimulate the bile in the liver to excrete the toxins, but I wonder if that would send me over the edge, and kill me if too much.

Mercury Toxicity
Cleanse small gallstones from gallbladder and small intrahepatic stones from the liver.
Cleansing the gallbladder of small gallstones and the liver of any small intra-hepatic stones (formed inside intrahepatic bile ducts) dramatically improves digestion - which is the basis of health. Some stones are just too large to be flushed out, and although the liver/gallbladder flush is unable to remove large stones, many attest to the ability of the liver flush to address many symptoms associated with large gallstones (E.g. gallbladder attack) and also to give an increased sense of well being.
The liver makes 1 – 1 ½ quarts of bile in a day - the liver's intra-hepatic bile ducts deliver bile to one large tube called the common bile duct, which is then stored in the gallbladder, attached to the common bile duct. About 20 minutes after eating fat or protein, the gallbladder is triggered to squeeze itself empty, and the stored bile finishes its trip down the common bile duct to the small intestine.
As intra-hepatic stones grow and become more numerous the back pressure on the liver causes it to make less bile, and as your gallbladder fills with stones, less bile makes it more difficult for the gallbladder to remove the stones - by way of analogy, if your garden hose had marbles in it much less water would flow, which in turn would decrease the ability of the hose to squirt out the marbles. Consequentially, less cholesterol leaves the body and cholesterol levels rise, thus creating more gallstones.
Gallstones, being porous, can pick up bacteria, cysts, viruses and parasites that are passing through the liver - in this way "nests" of infection are formed, supplying the body with fresh bacteria. Stomach infection (such as ulcers or intestinal bloating) can not be cured permanently without removing intra-hepatic stones from the liver.
Procedure for Dr. Hulda Clark's Liver/ Gallbladder Cleanse
Dr. Hulda Clark's Liver/Gallbladder flush provides a way to start dealing with:
Acne, high cholesterol, eczema, psoriasis, asthma, allergies, gallstones, food intolerance, shoulder pain, abdominal pain, upper back pain, arm pain, liver or gallbladder pain, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, heartburn, bloating, inflammatory bowel disease IBD, IBS, colitis, constipation, cancer, AIDS, MS, FMS, MSC, CFIDS/CFS, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's disease, epilepsy, seizures, osteoporosis, angina pectoris, and more.
Preparation
For an effective liver cleanse, you should first do (1) a parasite cleanse and (2) a kidney cleanse - cleansing a liver with living parasites in it could make you feel quite sick.
Take no medicines, vitamins or pills you can do without - could prevent success.
Eat a no-fat breakfast and lunch - allows the bile to build up and develop pressure in the liver. Higher pressure gives a better flush.
Liver / gallbladder flush Ingredients:
4 Tablespoons EPSOM salts (Magnesium Sulphate, opens bile ducts)
3 Cups fresh-squeezed grapefruit (This is crucial) Do not use anything besides fresh squeezed grapefruit, and if you are on medications be sure that grapefruit will NOT AFFECT IT! IT COULD KILL YOU!
1/2 tsp. (4 x 1/8 tsp.) powdered vitamin C – to improve taste of oil and juice;
1 Pint Jar with lid
1/2 Cup Olive Oil Extra Virgin Cold Pressed (or can substitute any other plant oil)
1 large or 2 small grapefruit - enough to squeeze 2/3 to 3/4 cup juice.
Ornithine Capsules (Optional for sleep assistance)
Large plastic straw
Liver / Gallbladder Cleanse Procedure
2:00 PM-
Do not eat or drink after 2 O'clock - or you could feel quite ill later.
Mix 4 Tbsp. Epsom salts in 3 Cups freshly made grapefruit or apple juice.
Makes four servings, 3/4 cup each – refrigerate mixture to make ice cold (helps taste)
6:00 PM-
Drink FIRST 3/4 cup dose of the ice cold Epsom salts, after adding 1/8 tsp. powdered vitamin C to improve the taste. You may drink a few mouthfuls of water afterwards or just rinse your mouth.
8:00 PM.-
Drink SECOND 3/4 cup dose of Epsom salts - You haven't eaten since o'clock, but you won't feel hungry.
Get your bedtime chores done - the timing is critical for success; don't be more than 10 minutes early or late.
9:45 PM.-
Mix olive oil and grapefruit juice: Pour 1/2 cup olive oil into the pint jar and squeeze the grapefruit or lemon juice into a measuring cup – remove pulp with fork; you should have 2/3 - 3/4 cup total (you may top it up with lemonade).
Add grapefruit juice to oil in jar (If using lemon juice, do not blend juice with oil, it can congeal and become slimy).
Close the jar tightly with the lid and shake hard until watery - only fresh grapefruit does this.
Now visit the bathroom one or more times - even it makes you late for your ten O'clock drink. Don't be more than 15 minutes late.
10:00 PM-
Drink the olive oil / grapefruit mixture - Drinking through a large plastic straw helps it go down easier, since it does not taste great! Take it to your bedside if you want, but drink it standing up. Get it down within 5 minutes (15 minutes for very elderly or weak persons).
You can take 4 ornithine capsules with the first sips - to make sure you will sleep through the night. Take 8 if you already suffer from insomnia.
Lie down immediately - The sooner you lie down the more stones you will get out. Be ready for bed ahead of time. Don't clean up the kitchen. As soon as the drink is finished, lie on your right side for 15 minutes with your right knee pulled up to your chest (helps open the pathway to gall bladder, but can cause some nausea).
You may feel a train of stones traveling along the bile ducts like marbles. There is no pain because the bile duct valves are open (thanks to the Epsom salts! ).
Go to sleep
On waking
But not before 6:00 AM
Take your THIRD 3/4 cup dose of Epsom salts - If you have indigestion or nausea wait until it is gone before drinking the Epsom salts. You may go back to bed.
2 hrs later
Take your FOURTH (and last) 3/4 cup dose of Epsom salts - You may go back to bed.
After 2 more hours
You may now eat - Start with fresh fruit juice. Half an hour later eat fruit. One hour later you may eat regular food but keep it light.
By supper you should feel recovered.
Expect diarrhea in the morning - although you may see what looks like large stones, they are instead, bile precipitated into solids during the night of the liver flush. It is not important that you see or count "stones", since most are like small grains of sand. What is important is that you see an improvement in your gallbladder symptoms and general well-being.
Sometimes, the bile ducts are full of cholesterol crystals that did not form into round stones. They appear as "chaff" floating on top of the toilet bowl water. It may be tan colored, harboring millions of tiny white crystals. Cleansing this chaff is just as important as purging the stones.
Several flushes may be needed, if gallbladder attacks persist
This liver cleanse is safe and reasonably pain-free
Cleanse is safe even for persons in their seventies and eighties - however it can make you feel quite ill for one or two days afterwards, especially if the maintenance parasite program has been neglected.

I know of a fellow practitioner that helped a woman "get rid of" her Candida years ago. The woman felt great. A couple weeks after the protocol was done, the woman's health declined rapidly. It took a while to figure out that her symptoms were from mercury toxicity. There was no Candida in her system (or not enough) to do its job of shuttling it to storage. The Candida protocol also likely caused weight loss (loss of fat tissue for storage) which exacerbated the issue.
There is lots of great info in these posts - recipes and protocol ideas. Mercola's site has some great information, especially with respect to what chlorella does vs. what cilantro does for removing mercury. It's important to understand there's a big difference between freeing up mercury in our body and actually shuttling it out of the body - two critical and different parts to the process.

Re your crown that is painful after taking zeolite...
One possible answer comes from a Googled site describing what zeolite does and is. Zeolite carries a negative charge and pulls out positively charged metals from the system. This may be the reason why your crown is causing some discomfort. Despite what a professional told you...of course the crown has metal in it.

I now have a holistic, biological dentist who uses a special suction, oxygen while removing the amalgam and a chlorella rinse. I would not got to a traditional dentist. In fact, mine wouldn't remove them, saying it was dangerous because of the mercury vapor and that it damaged my teeth. Then, why were they put in to begin with, and when you need a root canal, why are they drilled out with no precaution? It is completely hypocritical.
Do take cilantro, chlorella (especially), garlic, NAC, iodine, etc before you have them out. You can find out more specifics online if you research amalgam removal. I did lots of supplements and specific foods before each removal and because my health is a little fragile, I also had a glutathione infusion (you shouldn't need this). I had no after effects this time.
I did have inflammation for 2 weeks to a month afterword, but then complete healing. I should have used a clove oil mix for inflammation, as it would have helped immensely.

I would perhaps also take some time out to investigate Ted from Bangkok's treatment for ALS and late stage ALS which involves taking high doses of taurine, cysteine and lysine together with low dose methylene blue and lithium. See this EC link for more details:
Ted also says this about ALS:
"In my treatment of ALS, getting them to live as long as they want is no problem, they can live as long as they want, my problem is trying to reverse the ALS symptoms, which is a big problem. The one thing that has helped the most is always pregnenolone 50 mg, DHEA (12.5 mg women 25 mg for men), and melatonin (at night 5 mg is the average dose I see that works fine)."

Removing Heavy Metals
Removing Heavy Metals
To simplify ill health let us break it down to it's most basic form.
You and I are made of cells, trillions of them, from your eyes to your toes. When you become sick it is only one of two problems.
Either your cells (that's you) cannot absorb the the correct nutrients (hello poor diet) or the cells (that's you again) are over loaded with toxins.
In a nut shell getting the toxins out and the nutrients in is the key to all good health.
The secret to removing the toxins / heavy metals is to do it gently, the chances are your liver and kidneys have not being doing their job correctly which has now resulted in you becoming sick and feeling the need to read this.
So if that is true it would be prudent not to dump a whole load of heavy metals into you blood stream expecting your liver and kidneys to pick up the slack, it ain't going to happen and you will run the risk of becoming even more sick.
A sensible approach is whats needed but we are all in such a rush to get back to functioning so that we can work /pay our bills on time etc etc that we can sometimes throw common sense out of the window.
Here's the rub, heavy metals can be stored anywhere, even in your brain, (think Mercury) eyes, muscles and even in your bones. (lead)
So before we open the flood gates it might be worth having our vital detoxification organs working on our team.
A solid kidney cleanse is the first thing I would suggest and one can be found at Granma's Herbs, I have personally used this to good effect but as always start small and go slow, at the same time you can start a very gentle liver detox using Milk Thistle, there are numerous brands on the market that have acceptable results.
Cleaning the liver and kidneys are not things you can do over night but you are now moving in the right direction. I would suggest you stay on this protocol for at least 8 weeks and don't be too shocked if as a side effect you start to feel a little better. You know your body better than anyone else and I would urge you to use your own judgement, it might take a little longer and that's OK too.
OK so far so good, now we can start to look at removing the burden of heavy metals from your system. While there are numerous ways to do this I don't want to make this any more complicated than it has to be.
A great starting point would be to use a quarter teaspoon of Chlorella 3 times a day, this will bind up mostly Mercury from the gut, it's not going to remove it from the brain but as always I like to suggest we do one thing at a time and do our best to do it right.
Stick with the Chlorella for a month or so and don't be surprised if once again a welcome side effect is you start to feel a little better.
Stay with me here we haven't said anything yet that you can't do, all too often when a person suffers from heavy metals toxicity it's a real effort to stay focused without becoming overwhelmed.
So let me recap, we are going to assist the kidneys and the ideal product to do that you will find at Granma's Herbs.com, a decent Milk thistle you will find on Amazon, do these two things until you feel a little more prepared for the fight ahead of you. This can take as long as you feel comfortable with, it's not hard or fast.
Once you get to a point where you feel your life is improving we can start to take a new product called Chlorella. Small but regular doses of Chlorella are a God send, a good size is quarter of a tea spoon 3 times a day.
Once you feel you have your life back under control there are many numerous and wild paths available to you but I really want to make your life and path to healing very simple.
I feel it unwise to go on in great detail writing about too many products or speak about those important areas such as the blood brain barrier when at this moment in time all's you really you need is a fix right? (Please take note I did not say quick fix)
Of all the products out there some are expensive some are darn right dangerous but one in particular is extremely useful.
The name of this product is Chelorex and it was designed by Dr. Alan Greenberg. It takes all of the guess work out of removing heavy metals. It's really not that expensive and I know that it works
With heavy metals there is a healing triangle consisting of 3 things, Chlorealla ALA and Cilantro, get these 3 things in the wrong balance you will wish you never started, cilantro on it's own will only serve to stir things up, Chlorella as we learned earlier will only bind up metals in the gut, ALA will indeed cross the blood brain barrier but these need to be in the correct balance. Fortunately this combination has been calculated for you in the Chelorex formula.
I am a firm believer in starting anything new with a small test dose, so I would suggest for the first few weeks doing a half of what it says on the label. I have suggested this product on several people and all have come back to me with positive results. I have personally used Chelorex to astonishing effect,
So your path to healing is fairly simple, Yes there are many other ways but all too often people become confused by the mountain of information out there, they go off and try a little of this and a little of that and it ends up not working.To make it easier I am again going to recap below. If you stay on this path health is yours to claim back, from then on it's up to you to keep it.
Step 1. Get your filters working again (liver/kidney) do this slowly and gently, this is not something to rush. Only move to the next step when you "feel" it's right to do so. This might take 8 weeks or more. You know your own body far better than me or anyone else.
Step 2. Start a small but regular dose of Chlorella, quarter of teaspoon 3 times a day. Again stay at this point until YOU feel it's within you reach to move forward.
Step 3. Order Chelorex and take it at half the recommended dose, do this for several months or simply stay there until you get back to a reasonable form of health.
Step 4. You should by now be reducing Heavy metals faster than they are coming into your body. This is great but in order to win this battle you must now start to be pro active and stop new toxins entering your body.
Stay away from fish, ignorant dentists, most household chemicals (do some homework on this) and question the over use of vaccines. They have the potential to a great deal of harm. Your Doctor has the potential to make incredibly poor judgement calls that can have long term affects on you and your children.
Step 5. I urge you to question what has always been, do your own independent research BEFORE you go to the doctors or the dentist. Go that extra mile and be comfortable in your knowledge of such things rather than accepting some one else's word. Above all else take responsibility for your own health.
Step 6. Change your diet, it might seem strange leaving this so late on this list but it's far easier for me to overwhelm you than it is to get you to listen.
Had I started talking about the importance of diet earlier I'm sure you would have jumped to so many conclusions that I would have lost your interest and wasted my time.
I hear you Diet, yup Blar Blar Balr. But the absolute truth is diet is critical . We all think we have a good diet but people with great diets rarely get sick. If you take home one message from this section let it be this, Green to detoxify, greens are your friend, greens will help you, greens will keep you from slipping back. EAT THEM!
Step 7. In a world of too much information I can reveal in one word the diet you should follow. Paelo. It's the way your ancestors used to eat and it's really very easy to follow, There are no calories to count, you just eat as many fresh vegetables as you want, as much fresh fruit as you want and as much decent quality meat as you want, yes its important to combine them but I will save that for another topic. Yes, I know organic is expensive (but so is ill health) so if money is tight I would still urge you to make that first step and start eating greens, fresh fruit and decent quality meats. (grass fed would be awesome) This is a process and you shouldn't need to feel the added pressure of me forcing a new diet on you. Take it a step at a time, try to improve your diet a little at a time.
Step 8. Last but by no means least, once you are back on your feet remember there are people out here willing to give up their time to help you, a complete stranger. We don't seek any recognition reward or gain.
It would really mean a lot to me personally if you once you are well you could in turn find the time to help someone else.
Be Well

Cow's milk isn't necessarily bad for you nor their by products. What is bad is the processing of it. Pasteurization is only for the processing and packaging as milk can sour easily in heat so they heat to protect the milk while packaging. It is full of many bacterias after processing bc it is being pushed through much machinery therefore the milk must be cleaned when we get it home. So when your stomach gets upset when having milk it is the bacteria. Milk has it's own sugar = Lactose. Bacteria feeds off sugar. So, if you are being disturbed by milk try cleaning it first to not confuse yourself that you are lactose intolerant. Many ppl believe they are and they aren't, they just haven't cleaned their milk. If you do have an intolerance for milk try the pills for lactose intolerance, they work well. Then they eat cheese no problem, no you aren't lactose intolerant then, but you must clean your milk.
Cow's milk is not the easiest to digest and if this is a problem goat's milk is just the ticket bc it's enzymes are much closer to the human gut that's why in olden days when babies could not take mother's milk they put them on goat's milk. Old ways are good so don't give up tradition or your gut cultures because they will keep your immune system strong. Rice milk is ok if you have suffered ill health and are reducing stress on your system but I only believe they are a "go to" for a time. After all rice is a carb whereas milk is a calcium/protein milk that is good for the sugar stabilization, satiation, and supplies needed calcium to the bones and teeth. Milk can cause congestion/phlegm but then maybe you need to back off eating too many dairy products as this is a basis for disease such as psoriasis > bacterial infection and a lowered immune system. Everything in good measure. Milk is valuable but don't overdue the ice cream (fat & sugar). Remember, your body will tell you when it is out of balance so if you don't have problems with milk don't change what ain't broke.
So, now, let's make our good cultures at home then, they are much better too and not at all bitter like store bought. The reason for that is the culture has been over used and best to keep your culture original they say. I buy my kefir milk for "starter" every month that is keeping it original. If I used the starter from each batch ongoing it will become bitter, you see. I have a metal pot and pan that fits together, a double boiler where a water bath is in the bottom pan and milk on top with. They have a ceramic coating, buy this type as it is the safest for the health. Usual sizing holds about 1 complete liter. Heat milk until there is a skin forming then remove from heat by taking the milk pan off the water bath completely. let stand and cool until just a warm temp on the skin is felt = tepid. Remove the skin off the top.
This is the time to make the yogurt and/or the kefir. In a well washed glass container like big jar measuring correctly for the amount of milk you've cleaned, add the milk. Dollop in a good 1/2 cup of yogurt and stir ever so gently, wrap in towels to keep that "just warm" milk to multiply the good bacteria. Leave in a warm but not hot area as that will kill the culture, in the kitchen undisturbed for about 4 hours. Check the consistency every hour. When thick enough store in fridge. I make my own fresh cheese too by putting a good whack of yogurt in a coffee filter or cheesecloth lined metal mesh strainer over a bowl in the fridge. Add plastic on top. Add some weight to it as it strains off the "culture water." Don't throw that out, it won't be bitter so put it in a smoothy or drink it, as it has the same benefits only without the milk solids. I leave it for a couple of days in the fridge regularly emptying the culture water out of the catch bowl as I don't want my cheese sitting in the culture water. I increase more weight to it, then I twist it or push down on it to remove any moisture when I'm done, roll it into a ball in plastic wrap...and voila, cheese for your pasta, crackers etc. Very gratifying to take it through the stages and all of it supporting good health. Enjoy! Val

I was pregnant with her in a very remote area of US and untreated water was from a mountain spring. ( at the time I was thrilled!! ). I believe we both were exposed to heavy metals. Being preg I think I absorbed more.
This detox is really good. Going to put whole family on it. And stay on it till we stop reacting. (Go on and off as we react so body has time to recover) Taste is a bit hot for kids but they just swallow it and follow with water. Take with food, or at end of a meal!!!

Have you tried Fulvic/Humic Acid? I seem to be in about the same league of toxicity as yourself and like yourself find no lasting cure, but after taking a hot bath w/ added concentrated Fulvic/Humic Acid, it was obviously way more beneficial than past clay or major/minor mineral baths.
I am also benefiting from Lipospheric Vit-C and Lipospheric Reduced Glutathione.
Copper Toxicity Remedies
Detoxing from Gadolinium
As for the research (or lack thereof) you spoke of, further indicates the dangerous nature of this condition; it's not one of those blatant illnesses that garner public attention and response. Last night Bill Maher (on the Tonight Show w/.. ) noted this disparity between the recent chemical bombs unleashed upon civilians in Syria Vs Monsanto's non-labeled GMO's. This same problem exist in the medical community; the acute infections that require immediate medical intervention get high public alert status, while chronic illnesses caused by pathogens like Candida, mycoplasma, among others, are thrown under the rug and the struggling patient is recommended psychiatric medications or counseling as to their hypochondria condition.
So the only real markers of mommy-baby toxicity issues aren't apparent until the child reaches school age and is found to have "learning disabilities" or perhaps worse in cases like autism spectrum disorders. The variety of effects on mental function, behavior, and learning, and all with unknown etiology, makes the positive case for modern lifestyle or environmental cause.
The older and more obese the mother, the more likely (considering all other equal denominators like lifestyle or geography) the more likely congenital disorders.
As for treatment, this is yet another problem, because like Neil Young said "the damage done". So there is a really big need for awareness in terms of prevention. In my personal battle with a severe environmental illness, I have found Oil Pulling and Detox Foot Pads to be quite effective for helping the body remove toxic zenobiotics or heavy metals (outside of boosting antioxidant status). As for obesity, the body is blessed to have fat as an energy reserve, BUT this fat becomes a reservoir for toxin accumulation. As I might have suggested in a previous post, many people have great difficulty losing weight and I believe this toxicity factor is, to some degree, to blame. So, there is a holistic Dr Gittleman that has found breakthrough remedies in overcoming this problem, and so I very highly recommend her to mothers-to-be- and obese folks in general. She has a great web-site here: http://annlouise.com/.

I appreciate your concern and sensitivity to the quality of breast milk in our modern toxic world- there should be more public discussion of the risks and advantages of its use in feeding our infants. That being said, any research on infants is almost entirely unethical since they can't be fully informed of their participation and have their own choice, and thus it is limited. Current research has a concensus, however, that the benefits outweigh the risks.
I appreciate your suggestion of using melatonin for boosting glutathione- I recall that andrew cutler encouraged that in his (somewhat confusing) tome Amalgam Illness. I am also a big antioxidant fan- you are very right to include that for detoxification (my favorite local source of anthocyanins is salal berries, indigenous here in washington state).
I have read conflicting reports about how much toxins are flushed out during sweating, but none the less still enjoy the practice. This is a news report outlining a detox study being conducted at my alma mater: http://www.king5.com/news/Sweating-for-science-221725201.html
Thanks for sharing what works for you! It benefits us all.

This invisible problem could also have ramification beyond simply early childhood learning disabilities and what not. Autism and other major disabilities have complex causes which are in most cases very difficult to identify.
As for solutions, supplementing antioxidant nutrition and whole body detox remedies are critical for keeping these toxins out of the body.
The big emphasis is adequate Glutathione levels, and yes Selenium is important but I would also recommend, from first-hand and scientific proof, the role that the hormone Melatonin plays in Glutathione production. The Acai berry as well as other anthocyanin antioxidant flavones provides the defense necessary for the body to "burn" fat instead of accumulate it. Green Tea Catechins and the list goes on all are defenders against toxins.
Another remedy worth mentioning in our quest for keeping toxins away is sweating. Sweating is one of the body's natural detoxification methods, but toxic modern life w/ our air-conditioned environments create a big cause for toxin accumulation.
Mercury Toxicity
Selenium
Glutathione does naturally chelate with toxic metals, when it's hydrogen group gets spliced off revealing a free sulfur (by the enzyme glutathione peroxidase, requiring selenium)... Mercury loves sulfur, binds fairly well to it (not cemented, but okay enough for detoxing), and I would imagine that aluminum, lead, cadmium, arsenic, and any other heavy toxic metals would as well.
Selenium is also required for the enzyme that converts T4 to T3 in target hormone locations throughout the body, and a defeciency would likely cause high T4 and low T3 levels. Iodine is needed in these reactions as well, so a selenium defeciency is not always the cause...
sign of too much selenium is garlic breath (the body releases it in our breath).

To the OP: this comment is probably too late, but not breast-feeding your child would help reduce any potential symptoms for your child, since you are likely mobilizing any lead you have stored in your bones for breast milk production (it likes to partner with calcium in the body). You might consider securing another source of clean human breast milk... Breastmilk will help your son be his best, high or low lead levels, yours or someone elses. Chemical infant formula is no substitute for healthy babies! Google "La Leche League" or visit your department of public health for more information.
There is also a highly regarded homemade infant formula found in the cookbook Nourishing Traditions, by Sally Fallon (a book worth reading anyways)... best of luck.
DMPS Chelation
Cutler's ala detox protocol ruined me for a year (I was taking 10 mg of ALA every 3 hrs)... The ALA makes me want to hit my head against the nearest wall and bite my own hand... And I dont have ocd or a history of those behaviors! It obviously mobilizes mercury, which is great, but it can mobilize too much too fast, and overwhelm the body's elimination channels. That's when it really damages your body, and should be avoided (many people have had similar reaction to DMPS, might I add). although that is true for any detox protocol...
Since I already have so much mercury in me, I am very wary against any strong detox due to having such negative reactions consistenly in the past.. I have found the most relief by improving my own glutathione levels (zinc, selenium, vit c, green tea, dark roast coffee, avoiding excess environmental toxins (other than the caffeine), green-coffee enemas) and improving my ability to excrete toxins (charcoal capsules with coffee, high fiber diet when not taking fat-soluble vitamins, etc). I also have found gentle relief by using low dose (250mg) ca-na edta suppositories every other night. Nutrition wise, I eat a Weston Price style diet (traditional foods), and thrive on that.
Amalgam Fillings
Try not to do any active mercury detoxes until you have at least 3 straight months of feeling fantastic. Otherwise, you could damage your kidneys (ever been to a dialysis clinic?) and worsen your immune system (more chronic infections). Best to put in nutrients that support normal detox processes and to trust your innate cell wisdom to do what it can! Also, avoid cilantro (corriander leaf)- it will mobilize mercury and if your body detox systems are already overwhelmed, it will just cause more damage.. brain fog and feeling 'hit by a truck' is typical with mercury toxic people after eating cilantro.
After many years of repoisoning myself trying to detox mercury (will not bore you with the details, but I've done almost everything under the sun), I personally have had health success taking very small doses of ca-na edta suppositories (about 250 mg), along with mineral supplementation. But that is not supposed to be for mercury detox, but rather lead and cadmium. perhaps it helps the mercury symptoms by reducing overall toxic metal body burden, easing the ability for the cells to detox in general.
Best of luck! Mercury is a beast to get out!

From what I have read on Dr Mercola's website, you should get your detox pathways opened again before you have the fillings removed. This is because at the time of removal some mercury vapour or crumbs might still get into your system, so you need to be stong and healthy to withstand that and you need it done by a trained biological dentist.
If you have a naturopath, homeopath, or chiropracter who does nutitional counseling, I would expect them all to recommend certain basic changes in your diet: avoid tap water, juice and soda (fluoride poisoning can cause a host of debilitating chronic illnesses including digestive problems), avoid hyper-processed foods (fried, baked, preserved with chemicals etc), and focus on a paleo-type diet rich in spring water, organic fruits, vegetables, raw milk, eggs, pastured, grass fed meat, healthy fats like coconut, olive, cod liver oil, and grass fed butter etc.
If your digestive tract is really causing you problems with whole foods you could try veggie juice fasting. You also need vitamin B12, C, selenium and sulphur to open you detoxification routes (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-mark-hyman/glutathione-the-mother-of_b_530494.html. I have mentioned in the Crohn's page that DMSO, B12, melatonin and pig duodenum (http://simplehealthsolutions.info/a-to-z/dmso-for-crohns-disease/) have worked for that condition and I suspect you would benefit too.
You mentioned that you are taking calcium even though your cal to mag ratio is off. I think you should stop the Cal. To slowly detox heavy metals eat cilantro, spirulina and chlorella. Also the zero sperm count to me indicates you need lugol's iodine which will also help flush bromine, fluorine, chlorine and other heavy metals out. Take it slow so you don't detox too fast. Diatomaceous earth is also another really good detoxifier. Aloe vera is an other fabulous detoxifier. Look up liver cleansing and coffee enimas on this site too. May be a good option for you. All my suggestions should be researched further and discussed with your naturopath to make sure you are getting the right kind of each and not detoxing too fast.
I am concerned that you are still taking Lialda because it can cause side effects such as kidney-liver damage and UC (http://www.lialda.com/lialda-side-effects.aspx). If I were you, I would work with my Dr/naturopath to get off meds. It is highly likely they are contributing to your ill health, especially if they are capable of causing kidney/liver disfunction and UC.
I hope this helps and I wish you well again soon.
PS you can find raw grass fed milk at Reading Terminal Market and Mama's Wellness Joint in downtown Philly.

Hi, I have some issues going on. Any advice or help is welcomed. Let me first state the facts: I have ulcerative colitis/proctitis/IBS from symptoms and several colonoscopys done. Now I have always had blood work done, some urine test from idependent companies, and recently hair analysis from Analytical research labs. So, my test are off but I really dont know where to start or what to do. Besides the stomach issues some other issues I have and feel are: Extreme Fatigue, bone/joint fatigue/pain, Calcium/keratin buildup on face and scalp, dry, but oily skin (Seb Derm), Cold and or hot hands, I get hot and then cold with my body, Memory Loss (short term), Burp and gi issues like Extended belly, either constipated or runs, fat malabsorption, horrible sinus issues, always clearing my throat, headaches.... So, abnormal labs or tests that have come back are: Blood Test showed consistently low vit D (25-30 range - I supplement with 5,000 iu daily but never any difference), High FSH (means no sperm). Urine test showed C. Diff toxin, and heavy metals in my system (Thallium was 0. 8mg, which is high - I dont smoke at all - Could it be from filllings in my mouth??), and mercury was high also in urine test. Now, recently my hair analysis (I would post my actual result page but dont know how, I'll email to anyone that can help or like to see, send me your email) showed ALOT!!!
First, the final result is Adrenal Fatigue in exhaustion stage along with heavy metals. Now, specifically some HIGH values are: Calcium, Copper, Cadium, Arsenic, and Aluminum. Some LOW values are: Sodium, Iron, Manganese, Zinc, Chromium, Selenium, Nickel, Colbalt, Molybdenum, Lithium, and no Boron at all in my hair anaylsis!!! I really wish I could actually post this page??!! It would make more sense. Then, at the end, there are mineral ratios and there way outta sort: CA/MG is high, CA/K is super high, NA/MG is super low, NA/K is super low, Zn/Cu is low, Ca/P is high. And, finally, I'm a slow oxidizer!!! So all my ratios are outta wack. I need to resolve my hair anaylsis results because my whole body seems outta wack and this does support it. I just need help; This Hair Anaylsis gives recommendations for supplements but it's not making much difference at all. I feel awful but do have some good days.
Now, supplements I take: Zinc, multivitamin, Cysteine, Lysine, MSM, Ca, MG, boron supplement, biovine supplement for adrenals, and I spray magnesium oil every night on my body. I do take prescription drugs for my colitis - Lialda and canasa suppository. I do think I covered everything. I will add another post if I forgot anything. The hair anaylsis really said to me I have to get myself together fast!!!! But I need alittle help.
Is it smart to get my metals in my fillings removed???? I have about 6 in my mouth! Thanks!!!

Main question: does anyone have any info or experience with heavy metal detoxing, while having metal hardware from a surgery in the bones? (an old style ACL reconstruction in the knee from 1988 - grafted tendon with a bolt at the top of the tibia and one at the lateral lower femur)
Seems that detoxing might possibly pull the metals into the bloodstream, but since they cannot be fully dissolved, may that cause more problems than it could cure? Seems it may be a futile effort to keep drawing out what cannot be removed, and keep it constantly moving within other bio-systems. I'd love to get a complete hair/blood analysis, but have not found affordable labwork. I also do not know what the bolts are made of, so don't know what i'd be looking for.
More details on my original post.
Not to be redundant, but for some reason I can't get any answers on that. Maybe it's an unknown still?
