The "silver" fillings in your teeth - Dental Amalgams - are still widely used by the dental profession in most parts of the world. The "Amalgam" consists of a mix of metals - Generally 50% Mercury, 35% Silver, 15% Tin and other metals. But is it safe to put so much Mercury, the most toxic non-radioactive metal known to man, into the mouth of a person? There is now a growing mountain of evidence that it is NOT safe to do so. Some countries, like Sweden, Canada and Germany, have either banned or imposed serious limitations on Amalgam usage. There is now compelling evidence from reputable scientific bodies such as the World Health Organisation that, despite claims from pro-amalgam bodies such as the American and British Dental Associations (ADA/BDA), mercury is NOT "locked" safely in the metal bonds in the teeth, but can leak slowly into the body, often causing severe illnesses. These are reckoned to possibly include ME/CFS, Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimers, and a whole range of "auto-immune" illnesses. In fact, just by damaging the immune system, Amalgam could be contributing to an even broader range of illnesses. IS DENTAL AMALGAM SAFE?

Mercury's extreme cytotoxicity and neurotoxicity is a major factor in the neurological conditions, along with its inhibition of basic enzymatic cellular processes and effects on essential minerals and nutrients in cells. Mercury is also documented to cause imbalances in neurotransmitters related to mood disorders. A direct mechanism involving mercury's inhibition of cellular enzymatic processes by binding with the hydroxyl radical (SH) in amino acids appears to be a major part of the connection to allergic/immune reactive conditions such as autism, schizophrenia, lupus, eczema and psoriasis, scleroderma, and allergies. Immune reactivity to mercury has been documented by immune reactivity tests to be a major factor in many of the autoimmune conditions

Dr. Whitaker on mercury: In the May issue of Health and Healing, I told you about the two most common sources of toxic mercury: seafood and dental amalgams. But there's a third source of mercury that you should know about, particularly if you are the parent or grandparent of a young child or are expecting to have a child: vaccines

Until recently, a form of mercury called thimerosal was used as a preservative in many of the vaccines given to infants and young children, including vaccines for hepatitis B, influenza, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib). Congressman Dan Burton (R-Indiana), who spoke before the House Committee on Government Reform's hearing on mercury and medicine last year, knows just what this poison can do to the delicate brain and nervous system of a young child: his once-healthy grandson, who was given vaccines for nine different diseases in one day, now suffers from autism. In Burton's estimation, his grandson may have received, in the space of a few hours, 41 times the amount of mercury at which harm can be caused. Unfortunately, his grandson's experience is not unique. U.S. Government Concedes That Mercury Causes Autism

Human destiny is on a collision course with mercury. Tomorrow we will all wake up to a world with about twenty tons more mercury in the environment, another ton will be put into people's mouths by dentists, and tens of thousands of little children will receive vaccinations laced with  toxic mercury molecules, in the form of ethyl-mercury, super-charged with aluminum. In a world rapidly approaching some saturation point with mercury these twenty tons are significant. The longer medical and governmental authorities deny the full mercury story the higher the tide will rise as concentrations increase on land, sea and air. Mercury is a reality that has to be taken into account by doctors and everyone else. Though mercury is accompanied by tens of thousands of other chemicals in the environment none are as toxic nor as prevalent. We are destroying our children and our future with an invisible enemy as surely as if we have fought and lost a nuclear war. 

Mercury Destroys Brain Cells 
As I mentioned in the newsletter, mercury is a neurotoxin that is especially damaging to the developing brain and nervous system. A growing number of researchers believe that the soaring rates of neurological and developmental disorders in our children can be linked to a corresponding increase in the number of government-mandated vaccines. 

The number of compulsory vaccines has increased from 10 to 36 in the past quarter-century, and over that time period, there has been a simultaneous increase in the number of children suffering from disabilities that prevent them from reaching their full potential. The incidence of learning disabilities and attention deficit disorder has doubled in the past 25 years, while autism has increased by an incredible 200 to 500 percent in every state in the U.S. in just the last decade. more on the danger of vaccines

FDA Reverses Its Position on the Safety of Dental Fillings
June 20, 2008 

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has asserted for years that mercury in dental fillings is harmless, but has changed its position following a class-action lawsuit settlement this month. The debate has waged for almost 150 years over the safety of amalgam -- a material comprised half of mercury and half of other metals such as silver, tin and copper -- which has been the conventional means of filling cavities. It has been the FDA's published opinion that federal agencies "have found no scientific studies that demonstrate dental amalgam harms children or adults." But following the June 2 settlement of the lawsuit, which was filed on behalf of consumer advocate groups and some dentists, the agency's Web site now reads: "Dental amalgams contain mercury, which may have neurotoxic effects on the nervous systems of developing children and fetuses." The news is vindication to Dr Jerry Simon and his group at Dental Care of Stamford who stopped using amalgam fillings more than 20 years ago because of the controversy surrounding the material. more:

Removing dental work could save your life
by Hal Huggins, D.D.S., M.S.

Did you realise that your dentist can have as much of an impact on your overall health as your doctor? Chances are, your answer to this is no. But it's the truth. A truth that, unfortunately, is not being heard. Mainstream physicians and dentists refuse to open their eyes to the connection between dentistry and medicine. While I've managed to help hundreds of patients eliminate their sickening symptoms and disease, the establishment continues to ignore the fact that what goes on in your mouth can have a great impact on what goes on in the rest of your body. And that their standard dental procedures are making people sick and putting your health at risk. learn more

Be VERY Careful When Replacing Missing Teeth   A dental implant is one option for replacing missing or badly diseased teeth. It is composed of an artificial root that looks like a post or screw and is covered with a dental crown. Treatment involves the surgical placement of the implant into the jawbone, where it is allowed to fuse to the bone in a process called “osseointegration.” Once healed, the implant acts as an anchor for an artificial replacement tooth, or crown. The crown is made to blend in with your other teeth and is permanently attached to the implant. A typical dental implant is made of pure titanium and/or a titanium alloy. In fact, titanium alloys are widely used in both medicine and dentistry, for dental implants, pacemakers, stents, orthodontal brackets, and orthopedic implants (e.g., hip, shoulder, knee, or elbow). Not only is titanium strong, but many consider it biocompatible: it forms an oxide layer when exposed to air, and this purportedly results in reduced corrosion and superior osseointegration. So why should you reject the standard titanium metal implant? more...


Fluoride Wide Range of Serious Health Problems

Excerpt from "The Perfect Prescription For Your Teeth" booklet:
"Fluoride detaches the gum tissue, forming POCKETS from 1 to 8 mm deep. Dr. Judd states, “Receding gum surgery will end when the GUM POCKETS cease. The very mention of the procedure, which involves transferring flesh from the roof of the mouth to the excised area of the gums, is a heinous and useless procedure which ought to pass into oblivion. Fluoride is a nerve poison. FLUORIDE CAUSES CAVITIES.  There is not the slightest doubt.  Dr. Judd states, “TO AVOID FLUORIDE IS TO PREVENT MORE THAN 114 AILMENTS.. These 114 MEDICAL SIDE EFFECTS extend all the way from cancer down to headaches CAUSED BY 1 PPM FLUORIDE IN THE WATER. Thirteen of these side effects are proved by a double blind study on 60 patients by 12 physicians, 1 pharmacist and 1 attorney.”

Spokesmen for national groups are beginning to notice AN ALARMING RISE IN CAVITIES AMONG CHILDREN AND TEENS. Some dentists recommend DENTAL SEALANTS, especially for older teens not previously considered candidates for the treatment. But if sealants are now ordered, AREN’T DENTISTS ADMITTING NO CONFIDENCE IN THE ABILITY OF FLUORIDE TO PREVENT CAVITIES??? Says Dr. Judd, “REMOVAL OF FLUORIDE FROM DRINKING WATER, PASTES OR GELS SAVES THE ENZYME ADENOSINE DIPHOSPHATASE so it can deliver phosphate to calcium at the tooth surface, RESULTING IN A BEAUTIFUL, SEMI-FLEXIBLE ENAMEL.” And for those that care about wrinkles and such...Fluoride disrupts the connective tissue, causing excessive cross-linking, cysts, and premature aging of the skin! Clearly, getting rid of fluoride is the first important step to take care of your teeth and other problems in the body.

Dr Robert Verkerk -  “Fluorides are extremely reactive molecules which have been shown to cause considerable harm in biological systems. They continue to be used by health authorities for a specific medicinal purpose, namely the treatment and prevention of dental caries, yet they have never been subjected to the full risk/benefit analysis which is required in order to bring other drugs to the market. Drinking water medicated with fluoride clearly amounts to government-sponsored use of an unlicenced drug. It is staggering that international bodies such as the United Nations’ Codex Alimentarius Commission could have overruled the substantial scientific concerns about fluoride in infant formula raised by several countries in November’s Codex meeting in Chiang Mai, Thailand and that babies, the most vulnerable members of our society, are made the innocent victims” Dr Robert Verkerk, Executive Director of the Alliance for Natural Health Learn more: Fluoridated and Chlorinated Water: Wide Range of Serious Health Problems

Good Teeth, Birth to Death 
by Dr. Gerard F. Judd, Ph.D.

"You can now have good teeth without fillings,  root canals, crowns and sealants, gum operations and other expensive dental procedures. I now place in everyone's hand the complete answer to tooth cavities. Following this procedure there will not be one more cavity, one more gingivitis case, or one more fluorosed, brittle, cracked tooth in the world. Bad teeth in Ireland, Canada, the USA, Britain, Australia and New Zealand will now be curbed. The 55-year fight with fluoride promoters (dentists) in these countries is over since research now establishes for certain that fluoride makes the teeth WORSE and not better (refs 1,2,3). My book, Good Teeth, Birth to Death lays out in no uncertain terms all the detail to achieve my claims. I have talked to thousands of people about their teeth, many of whom have perfect teeth. In all those cases of perfect teeth, the practice of rinsing while eating has been the reason, and not fluoride. I am convinced that perfect teeth have little or nothing to do with genetics."

German scientists say amalgam reduces fertility
In a cell culture experiment, mercury affected hormone production at low concentrations. A link has been found between mercury and hormone disturbances, immune disturbances, recurrent fungal infections, hair loss and allergies. The differences are large. Allergies and hair loss are 2-3 times as common in the high- mercury group. These recent results confirm earlier findings from Heidelberg on mercury and fertility. According to the researchers, mercury exposure leads to hormone and immune disturbances that can reduce fertility. In a cell culture experiment at the Tuebingen University gynecological clinic, mercury affected hormone production at low concentrations. The concentrations were so low that cell vitality was otherwise almost unaffected. 
 

Neurological and Immune Reactive Conditions Affecting Kids
The mercury connection to neurological pervasive developmental disorders (autism, schizophrenia, dyslexia, ADD, childhood depression, learning disabilities, OCD, etc.) and developmental immune conditions(eczema, asthma, and allergies) 

 The incidence of neurotoxic, allergic, and immune reactive conditions such as autism, schizophrenia, ADD, dyslexia, allergies, asthma, eczema, psoriasis, childhood diabetes, etc. have been increasing rapidly in recent years. A recent report by the National Research Council found that 50% of all pregnancies in the U.S. are now resulting in prenatal or postnatal mortality, significant birth defects, developmental disabilities or otherwise chronically unhealthy babies. There has been a similar sharp increase in developmental disabilities in Canadian children over the last 2 decades, including learning disabilities and behavioral problems, asthma and allergies, and childhood cancer. Exposure to toxic chemicals or environmental factors appear to be a factor in as much as 28 percent of the 4 million U.S. children born each year , with 1 in 6 having one of the neurological conditions previously listed. The U.S. Dept. Of Education indicates that over 5 million children attending school have neurological related disabilities reported by state agencies, other than ADD. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics between 4 to 12 % of all school age children are affected by ADHD and a similar number have some degree of dyslexia. Studies indicate that over 60,000 children are born each year with neurodevelopmental impairments due to prenatal exposure to methyl mercury and two other sources of mercury exposure appear more common and at higher levels than this, mercury from vaccines and amalgam dental fillings. - 

Mercury in vaccines - One hundred years ago, children received 1 vaccine (the smallpox vaccine). Forty years ago, children received 5 vaccines routinely (diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, polio, and smallpox vaccines) and as many as 8 shots by 2 years of age. Children now receive 52 vaccines, in the form of 15 shots, by the time they are 6 months of age if they receive all the recommend shots, including the Prevnar pediatric pneumonia shot. Vaccines contain THIMERSOL (mercury), MSG, aluminum, formaldehyde, sucrose and phenoxyethanol, which is antifreeze, among many other things. Thimerosal, a vaccine ingredient, is nearly 50% mercury. Mercury is a NEUROTOXIN. EPA 'safe' levels are: .1 microgram per 1.0 kilogram of body weight per day. Vaccines contain 12.5 to 25.0 micrograms of mercury, and a 'well baby' visit can see your child have between 50 and 62.5 mcgs of MERCURY injected into their bloodstream. The CDC (US) has found a trend linking autism to mercury laden vaccines. Thimerosal is a registered pesticide with the Department of Pesticide Registration of the Environmental Protection Agency. more on vaccinesLaw suit

Detoxifying from Amalgam Poison

Detoxification is a normal body process of eliminating or neutralizing toxins through the colon, liver, kidneys, lungs, lymph and skin.

Naturopaths who hold that illness can be healed by the natural processes of the body are the most vigorous supporters of detoxification, since they believe that the primary cause of disease is the accumulation of uneliminated wastes. When the body's natural cleansing systems are no longer up to the task, proponents of detoxification say everyone should detoxify at some point. 

Detoxification Methods

Detoxification is a normal body process of eliminating or neutralizing toxins through the colon, liver, kidneys, lungs, lymph and skin.

Dr. Ted H Spence, DDS, ND, PhD/DSc, MPH - "Detoxification comes in many forms and refers to many different programs that cleanse the body of toxins. Today, our environment is toxic and the foods we eat, even the air we breathe and the water we drink is laden with chemicals foreign to our system. Therefore, everyone is undergoing some type of detoxification to maintain life and health. Although basic detoxification begins with diet, detox programs may include nutritional fortification for the liver, lungs, kidneys, bowels and blood.  Detoxification for the body may refer to the cleansing of the bowels, kidneys, lungs, the liver or the blood, since these are the organs involved in detoxification of chemicals and toxins from the body. The liver acts as an in-line filter for the removal of foreign substances and wastes from the blood. The kidneys filter wastes from the blood into the urine, while the lungs remove volatile gases as we breathe."


Transfer Factor Toothpaste

Transfer Factor Toothpaste offers the immune benefits of Transfer Factor and other ingredients, including Coenzyme Q-10 and lactoferrin, to promote healthy teeth and gums. Transfer factors are tiny messenger molecules that transfer immunity information from one entity to another, such as between a mother and her breastfeeding infant.

• Research indicates that the health of your mouth can influence the health of other body systems. Transfer Factor helps promote the health of your teeth and mouth through superior immune system support.
• Independent laboratory studies show that 4Life Transfer Factor E-XF boosts immune system effectiveness by raising Natural Killer cell function an impressive 283 percent. Natural Killer cells are on the front lines of your immune system.
• The extraction processes for transfer factors from colostrum and egg sources are protected by US patents 6,468,534 (egg yolks) and 6,866,868 (exclusive manufacturing techniques), with other patents pending.
• Xylitol is an all-natural sweetener with antibacterial qualities that helps inhibit the bacteria most closely associated with plaque and tooth decay.

Your immune system is your bodyguard. It works both pro-actively and protectively to shield you from anything in your world that threatens your life and limb. The immune system is not responsive to drugs for healing. By rebuilding immunity, health is naturally restored and disease disappears. If health and immunity are thereafter conscientiously maintained, the individual is no longer vulnerable to disease. Rebuilding the Immune System with Transfer Factor

Mercury Exposure - Dr. Klinghardt and Dr. Patricia Kane lecture on "Heavy metals and their health impact"

"In all chronic diseases heavy metals play a role. Heavy metals lead to chronic infections by fungi, bacteria, mycoplasma, viruses. But it is a big mistake to treat these infections without changing the milieu. We all have neuro toxins in our body. Under these neuro toxins mercury has a special importance, because it prevents detoxification. When mercury is removed, then the other toxins tumble out. Neuro toxins lead to "Neurotoxine mediated chronic illness".  more


Mercury Detoxification

Dr. Vinograd D.D.S. N.M.D. - "I was  35 years old and feeling like 80. I did not understand where all the symptoms I was experiencing came from - The brain fog, the insomnia, the digestive problems, the tired feeling that accompanied me every day, the irritability and bad breath. I could still remember feeling so much more healthy when I was younger, so vibrant and full of good quality energy. At first, I attributed feeling unhealthy to the aging process. And when I finally realized that what I was feeling was not normal aging. I felt like I had hit a dead end.

My blood tests did not show any abnormalities other than a high Candida count, but when I researched the various approaches to eradicate Candida, I was surprised to find that the fungus has a direct relationship with heavy metal toxicity. Apparently, our bodies 'farm' the Candida to have them help absorb some of the toxicity created in our bodies from the heavy metals. I then ran some test to uncover the possibility of being burdened by other heavy metals. After Urine Toxic Elements and Fecal Metals tests (at Doctor's Data Medical Laboratory), Hair Analysis (at Great Smokies Diagnostic Laboratory), and a Syncrometer Test of my saliva samples, what I found was shocking.

All tests revealed abnormal levels of various metals; including arsenic, nickel and lead (I suppose that although labeled abnormal they are quite common). However, it was my mercury levels that were off the charts, and appeared consistently in every test. Where was this mercury coming from? We know now that certain fish have been identified as carrying unusually high levels of mercury (the government's Environmental Protection Agency now carries strict warnings) As a dentist, I suspected the mercury did not solely come from the fish. As most dentists, I had been indoctrinated to believe that amalgam (silver) fillings, were perfectly safe.

Could my use of amalgams, both in my patient's mouth and on my own be a source of mercury toxicity? As it turns out, not only do I believe that to be the case, but dentists are now being compelled by law to disclose to their patients the potential dangers of amalgam use. I am happy to be able to report that I am now 51 years old and feel like 20. I have spent the bulk of my time developing a protocol to help patients detoxify (perhaps driven by some guilt over the many years I used amalgams on my patients). I have explored therapies with intravenous chelating agents (DMSA, EDTA, DMPS), finding them expensive and very harsh on the body. I have looked into sublingual herbal and homeopathic preparation, finding some of them somewhat useful, but quite expensive (one such preparation was retailing for $150.00 for one ounce bottle, needing several bottles).



Mercury Detoxifying Medicinal Clay Treatment: Simple Clay Bath
by Lauana Lei

"A few years ago, I was diagnosed with heavy metal and chemical poisoning. Among the many toxic substances in my body, mercury from the fillings in my teeth was a major culprit.  Having neither health insurance nor the money to pay for these expensive treatments, I began searching for alternative ways to eliminate these poisons--a major cause of immune system breakdown--and thus, the source of various diseases. Eventually, my search led me to a book, Using Energy to Heal, by Wendell Hoffman. Through his own research, Hoffman found that a special bentonite (a very fine volcanic clay) used in a bath can actually draw out toxic chemicals through the pores of the skin. After many experiments, he concluded that optimum results are obtained by immersing oneself in a tub of very warm water mixed with a special bentonite clay for exactly 20 minutes!"

Water The Great Healer and Detoxifier! 

Water therapy has been used for centuries to heal the sick.  Hydro- and hydrothermal therapy are traditional methods of treatment that have been used for the treatment of disease and injury by many cultures, including those of ancient Rome, China, and Japan. The ancient Greeks took therapeutic baths. Water is an important ingredient in the traditional Chinese and Native American healing systems. more

F. Batmanghelidj, M.D. - "Every function inside the body is regulated by and depends on water. Water must be available to carry vital elements, oxygen, hormones, and chemical messengers to all parts of the body. Without sufficient water to wet all parts equally, some more remote parts of the body will not receive the vital elements that water supplies. Water is also needed to carry toxic waste away from the cells. In fact, there are at least 50 reasons why the body needs sufficient water on a regular, everyday basis. Without sufficient water to constantly wet all parts, your body's drought-management system kicks into action. The histamine-directed chemical messenger systems are activated to arrange a new, lower quota of water for the drought-stricken areas. When histamine and its subordinate "drought managers" come across pain-sensing nerves, they cause pain. This is what I discovered in my research that I mentioned earlier." 

Dr. Hidemitsu Hayashi, M.D.  - " Water has the ability to attract and accumulate bio-energy. It also stores an energy memory of harmful or helpful vibrations to which it was exposed in the past.  Chlorinated tap water is polluted with non-biological chemicals and negative energy imprints. It is also devoid of bio-energy and so may be regarded as being badly polluted as well as 'dead'. Alkaline living water is regarded by a growing number of health care professionals as the best water to drink and is listed as a medical device in Japan for the treatment of degenerative diseases." Benefits of Alkaline, Ionized Water

Joseph M. Price, MD - "Chlorine is the greatest crippler and killer of modern times. It is an insidious poison."

Albert Schatz, Ph.D - "Fluoridation  is the greatest fraud that has ever been perpetrated and it has been perpetrated on more people than any other fraud has." Professor Albert Schatz, Ph.D. (Microbiology), Discoverer of streptomycin and Nobel Prize Winner

Safe, toxin-free, Ionized, Energized, Drinking Water helps to naturally flush toxins and acidic waste from the body and is a powerful antioxidant. Ionized Water makes more oxygen available to our cells than distilled, reverse osmosis, filtered only, bottled or tap water and is the best possible drinking water. "Disease and early death is more likely to be seen with the long term drinking of purified water. Avoid it except in special circumstances." Zoltan P. Rona M.D

Matthew Silver, MD  - "An associate in her early fifties who had suffered for many years from the toxic effects of chlorine poisoning from inhaling vapors from an over-chlorinated swimming pool. This had resulted in many severe health challenges including extreme chronic fatigue and breathing difficulty that kept her housebound and dependent on oxyn. Even minimal exertion led to extreme shortness of breath. After just three days of drinking glyconutrients, she reported that all of her symptoms improved dramatically and that she was able to leave her house without oxygen and work in her garden, which she had not been able to do in years."  The sugars found on all Glyconutrients (saccharides) also address the workings of the brain and nervous system – from memory and sleep to anxiety and depression.

Chemicals and Toxins Are The Primary Cause of Illness, Disease and Obesity
Substances that are toxic to our bodies come at us from all directions: the air we breathe, the food we eat, the water we drink, the cleaning products we use, and the metabolic waste produced inside us. Toxins build-up in the body contribute to premature aging and chronic and degenerative diseases. Dr. Steve Nugent, the past president of the American Naturopathic Medical Association, reported recently that "in the typical American home there are more toxins inside the home than outside the home! Your cells actually contain over 400 new toxins that didn't even exist 45 years ago and we are losing the battle against toxins!" It's a fact. There are increasing amounts of toxins and chemical agents in the water we drink, the food we eat and the air we breathe - they all contribute to the breakdown in cellular communication and disease.  more


AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS (ALS) (LOU GEHRIG'S DISEASE)

THE MERCURY CONNECTION "It didn't take long for me to find dozens of sources that implied mercury poisoning was involved in ALS and MS, as well as many other "diseases", and that the most common source of mercury is from "silver" dental fillings. I was shocked that I had never heard of this before, but would later learn that by design, 95% of the population is unaware of this fact. I found articles and books that claimed many recoveries from MS after the SAFE removal of dental fillings. I even found one in a medical journal entitled "RECOVERY FROM AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS AND FROM ALERGIES FOLLOWING THE REMOVAL OF DENTAL AMALGAM FILLINGS" published in The Journal of Risk and Safety in Medicine. The report documented the case of an unnamed woman in Sweden, who was diagnosed with ALS and was unable to walk. She fully recovered after just five months of removing her mercury fillings, and supplementing with selenium [Se] and vitamin E."  more

Eric soon realized that he had more information about ALS than was available from any single source. Additionally, his theories and regimen are proving to be correct - they are working. 

Amalgam Illness, Diagnosis and Treatment : What You Can Do to Get Better, How Your Doctor Can Help by Andrew Hall Cutler 

 "Dr. Cutler's book explains how mercury causes many serious health problems you may suffer from. But it doesn't stop after telling you how terribly poisoned you might be - it actually tells you how to get the mercury out of your brain and get well. 

Dr. Cutler not only studied American medical journals to formulate this protocol, but overseas medical journals as well.  He shows you how to safely remove mercury from your body and brain using alpha lipoic acid, an over-the-counter antioxidant. The most important things to remember about chelating with lipoic acid are to (1) go slowly and (2) to take the doses (25 mg to 120 mg according to  tolerance) every 3 to 4 hours around the clock.  Dr. Cutler explains how this method keeps the blood levels of lipoic acid stable in order to move the Hg from the brain and eliminate it, not merely redistribute it to other places. 

    Most of the neurological symptoms I've suffered from are gone now.  They don't come and go; they are just gone. The rapid heart beat stopped, along with the numbness and tingling of the extremities, and the tremor and twitches in my head.  My blood pressure has come up from 70/40 to 120/80 - perfectly normal. My cholesterol has dropped from 305 to 240.  My facial color is no longer ghastly white, but rather a normal and natural color.  H-Pylori titers (a bacteria associated with peptic ulcers and cancer) have gone from 6 plus to 1.37 without medication. 

    I'm thrilled I found a way to improve these stubborn health problems that refused to budge with any other means.  Believe me, I had tried everything. If you want to get well from CFIDS, candida, MS, and other neurological problems please don't overlook this book, Amalgam Illness: Diagnosis and Treatment. Then follow the directions for how to get well safely!" an amazon.com reviewer

Dr. Mercola - "Danger -- Higher Mercury Levels in Fish Are Slowly Killing You - Recent studies in Japan show whale livers with 5,000 times the toxic dose of mercury. We need to wake up, mercury in fish is real and ALL fish should be avoided. Routine consumption of fish oil is another highly recommended method of increasing your omega-3 intake and improving your health. Fish oil contains high levels of the best omega-3 fats - those with the EPA and DHA fatty acids - and, as it is in pure form, does not pose the mercury risk of fresh fish."

Root Canal Therapy

There are now a group of dentists around the country who are openly advocating the extraction of every root canaled tooth on the basis of the research done by Dr. Price. This is certainly a radical approach to solving a problem that appears to be limited to only about 10% of the total number of root canal treatments done. Furthermore, it certainly does not take into consideration the use of calcium oxide as a root canal medication in the treatment of infected root canals. Much of the current confusion in the minds of the public about the efficacy of root canal therapy has been precipitated by the book "Root Canal Cover Ups" written by George Meinig, D.D.S., past president of the American Association of Endodontists. Dr. Meinig extensively cites the work of Dr. Price and concludes that there is a serious problem with root canal therapy and teeth that have had root canal treatment. This of course, is a major break with his own previous training and the policies of both the American Association of Endodontists. and the American Dental Association. Patients going to an "establishment" endodontist or dentist who does not subscribe to the focal infection theory are given a much different picture on the efficacy of root canal treatment. Here again, establishment protocols for endodontic treatment rely heavily on the use of some very toxic chemicals and cements. And although there is a 90% success rate for most endodontic procedures, it is still a scientific fact that using the existing endodontic materials and techniques, there is no way to totally seal the apex of the tooth and the dentinal tubules. Using the word "existing" may be a misnomer because there is an existing product called "Biocalex" that is offering new hope in resolving difficult endodontic problems. learn more

Gingivitis - healing with herbs

" The last time I went to a dentist, way too long ago, like 2.5+ years, I had mainly 4's, a lot of 5's, and several 6's and even a few 7's in my gum readings. Anyone who's gone through this will appreciate the numbers--it's basically about how deeply detached from the teeth the gums are, how far up or down the tooth is beyond the visible gum line before there's a healthy connection. My dentist warned that I had advancing gingivitis and held out no hope that I might reverse the damage, but that proper care could slow or maybe even arrest the deterioration. This time, recently, I was expecting the worst--haven't been to a dentist after all!--but my numbers were mostly 3's and a bunch of 4's, maybe one 5 as I recall, and no 6's and 7's. This was a new dentist but she had no concern about my gums. I don't use special toothpaste for gum health. (Thanks, Tiffany, I'll do that with Sangre de Drago!) I don't floss that much, though I like to pick around a lot with toothpicks. But I was already doing that before. The only difference is so many more years of the Amazon herbs, including lots of Recovazon liquid and Sangre de Drago, every single day without fail. I don't know how else to account for it. So at the very least, this is a happy coincidence, and I'm sure not letting up on those herbs! " Saniel Bonder, spiritual teacher & author, Healing the Spirit/Matter Split, an Amazon Herb Enthusiast

"I have been struggling with gingivitis for over a year now.  At one point I had to go on two rounds of strong antibiotics to get rid of it.  My gums have receded to the point where I couldsee the roots of my teeth in several areas.  The gingivitis recently came back again.  I had just started taking Glyconutrients so I started doing mouth rinses with it several times a day and the gingivitis is now all gone. I did not use any antibiotics and no other natural healing remedies. I am so relieved." Patsy C., Prince Albert, Saskatchewn, Canada

"For over a year I had a persistent tooth infection that failed to heal, even after taking numerous antibiotics! Eventually, after a root canal and many trips to the endodontist with no results, I was introduced to Glyconutrients. Within hours, I could feel the drainage of this affected area and my mouth. My fevers have dissipated, I sleep well and I am thankful for this marvelous juice! P.S. I work in the dental industry!" Cheryl, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Mercury Induces Cell Cytotoxicity and Oxidative Stress and Increases ß-Amyloid Secretion and Tau Phosphorylation in SHSY5Y Neuroblastoma Cells

Another study showing a possible link between mercury exposure and some forms of non familial or sporadic Alzheimer's Disease has recently been published. This study by was done by a group of Swiss researchers and published in the Journal of Neurochemistry, a prestigious peer reviewed, neuroscience journal. The Swiss researchers showed that exposure of neuroblastoma cells in culture to extremely low levels (180 nanomolar or 180 x 10-9 molar) of mercuric cation (Hg2+) produces all the classical cellular biochemical lesions found in the Alzheimer's Diseased brain. 


Autism and Mercury
by Tim O'Shea,DC 

Inquiry into vaccine safety is exploding like never before, even in the popular press. Research coming from dozens of mainstream medical studies can no longer be easily suppressed, as it has been in the past, especially with the prevalence of online information exchange. Last September, some 2,000 people, mostly MDs, assembled at the Town and Country resort in San Diego to hear the latest research on autism. Following the April 2000 Congressional hearings on autism and vaccines, this epidemic can no longer be ignored. 

The figure of one autistic infant for every 150 is now widely documented. Dr. Stephanie Cave presented enlightening data on mercury toxicity, drawn largely from the brilliant work of Sallie Bernard. Dr. Cave explained how: By age two, American children have received 237 micrograms of mercury through vaccines alone, which far exceeds current EPA "safe" levels of .1 mcg/kg. per day. That's one-tenth of a microgram, not one microgram. 

A few years ago, Bernard and her associates began to notice a striking similarity between the symptoms of autism and the symptoms of mercury poisoning. The more research she did, the more it seemed that these two diseases were virtually identical. Autism and mercury poisoning damage the: brain/nerve cells; eyes; immune system; gastrointestinal system; muscle control; and the speech center.read the rest of this fascinating article -Autism: the vaccine connection  - How to reach your autistic child
 

It's All in Your Head : The Link Between Mercury Amalgams and Illness by Hal A., Dr. Huggins 

Dentist Huggins has led the fight to alert the public and health professionals to the dangers of using mercury in the amalgams used to fill teeth. Here he describes his battle with the American Dental Association and the results of his research studies. After explaining mercury toxicity, he describes such conditions as neurological and immunological diseases that can result from this toxicity. His discussion also includes the diagnosis of mercury toxicity and the pros and cons of having mercury amalgam fillings removed. He indicates that there are often no definitive answers in the diagnostic process and that the final proof of mercury toxicity is whether the patient feels better when mercury fillings are removed. A useful if very detailed look at a continuing health controversy. Karen Graves 

"Mercury has been a known poison for centuries. Toxic levels of mercury can cause or exacerbate autoimmune diseases, infections, unexplained chronic fatigue, depression, nerve impairment, memory problems, decreased mental clarity, bowel disorders, and many other problems that are seemingly unrelated. With laboratory testing and a thorough history and physical examination, experienced health care professionals can detect harmful mercury levels and formulate a plan of detoxification. With special laboratory tests, experienced health care professionals can estimate the mercury load within the body by how much is being excreted in the urine". Dr. Elmer M. Cranton, MDmercury prevention and detox programs

Two amalgam fillings over looked in my teeth!
by YM, Ibaragi City, Japan, 28 years old. Feb.'96

Now that I am finally free from the itching that almost drove me crazy, my everyday life is cheerful, joyous, and comfortable. I am filled with happiness and gratitude. But, to be truly honest, I still feel vexed and angry about what happened to me. 

Since I was a child, my skin was sensitive and I was prone to dry skin and infections especially around the elbows and the knees. It was nothing very serious and I was living a normal life just like others did. However, in the winter when I was 19, I all of a sudden started to itch all over my body. It was really abrupt. I literally scratch-ed myself from head to toe and to the extent that there was no spot left unscratched. My skin was smeared with blood. My condition seemed hopeless. I had no idea that amalgam, used in my dental treatment when I was 17 years old, was the cause of my condition. 

Stereoid treatment
I started to use steroid ointment prescribed by a University Hospital near my home. Back then the media had just started reporting on the side-effects of steroids. I was a bit concerned, but I concluded that the steroid ointment must be safe enough since it had been prescribed for me at the University Hospital. I also thought that, since I would soon be cured, I wouldn't have to use the ointment for very long. Although I felt that applying the ointment was not such a good idea, I talked myself into doing it anyway and applied it all over my body. I realized that this was a really powerflil cure since a doctor told me -"Never apply the ointment on your face". 

For the next eight years I kept going back to the hospital to receive more of the steroid ointment as soon as I ran out of it. During that period I graduated from junior college, got a job, got married and gave birth to a child. This is a period of my life during which I was pickled in steroids. I had no pain since the steroid was so powerful and therefore I did not try to find the cause of my eczema nor did I try to improve my lifestyle. In my naive belief l thought that as long as I had the ointment I was OK 

Allergic to dental amalgam
Shortly after I gave birth to my daughter, the magic ointment didn't seem to be as effective as before, no matter what amount I used. Then my neighbour introduced me to Dr. Kohdera and my painful struggle with atopic dermatitis started. Dr Kohdera was very different from the other doctors I knew. He was really enthusiastic, and told me:-"If you find the cause of your problem, it will surely be cured." Hearing this, I made up my mind to follow him no matter what. Back then my skin was in the worst possible condition, so crumbled up and raw that a patch test was impossible. The result of a blood test (Lymphocyte Proliferation Test) showed that I was highly allergic to dental amalgam. I was also highly allergic to mites, pollen, metal and some food groups. I was immediately referred to the Osaka University Hospital to have my dental fillings removed and I waited to see the result. At the same time, I switched my old bed linen to a mite allergen-free bed linen-set by Yamasei as a measure to ward off mites. I also got rid of old carpets and a couch made of fabric. I switched from a fan heater using petroleum to an electric fan heater since the former polluted the air in the house. Thinking about how costly having atopic eczema could be, I felt a bit dejected.

Withdrawal syndrome
Then the steroid withdrawal syndrome began. It was beyond my imagination. My skin was crumbled just like the bottom of a dried up dam. There seemed to be no liquid or oil left in my skin and it was terrible. Even a small amount of perspiration caused itching. After taking a batch it itched again. when I went to bed I couldn't sleep due to the unbearable itching. It itched around the clock. It was impossible for me to forget about the itching even for a short while. I was getting more and more tired. It took almost all of my energy just to take care of myself, and it was too much to take care of my husband and child also. I had to squeeze the last bit of my energy just to give my child a bath at night. I was exhausted all the time and irritated. Our family couldn't live a normal life because of me. I felt most vexed when I found out that my left eye had cataract seven months after I stopped using the steroid. Now I can see objects at a distance after surgery but not things close to me. I tell myself that this has to be my fate. 

I had the amalgam fillings removed from my teeth, was careful about mites and what to eat, used alkali ion water, was careful about cleaning the house, looked at every aspect of daily life in connection with atopic dermatitis, hoping that I would be cured. I was slowly getting better but couldn't quite forget about itching and every day was painful. Sometimes I thought that ones constitution wouldn't change so easily, no matter how hard one tried. when I realized that a lot of people were suffering from atopic dermatitis I couldn't think positively. There were days when I felt that I didn't want to live any more and that my body would disappear. 

Quick recovery
Then one day I had a terrible toothache. One year and eight months prior to this, I had my amalgam filling removed to get rid of the cause of the atopic dermatitis, but the teeth were left unfilled since there was no dental material fit to use (in order to prevent allergic symptoms), and those teeth developed cavities! I went back to the same dentist who had removed the amalgam filling and had an Xray of all my teeth. Then, two amalgam fillings were discovered in my mouth that had been believed to be amalgam free! Since they were my wisdom teeth, I had them extracted. But the discovery was shocking. Two months after the extraction, my skin became amazingly smooth. It was as though the bad substance was draining from my body. The pain that had haunted me day and night was suddenly lifted from me and I could sleep like a baby and get up feeling fine. It was such a quick recovery that I wondered if I really did have atopic derinatitis after all. The better I got the more I realized that the biggest cause, after all, was the two amalgam fillings forgotten in my teeth. As I realized this, I wanted an apology from my dentist, who overlooked those amalgam fillings. 

It was no use regretting what had happened. I had to accept it. During those years filled with pain I fought face to face with my atopic eczema. With support from those around me, including Dr Kohdera and my family, I have learned a lot. I have learned that our bodies react even to such tiny dental fillings, and that the environment of one's house and the earth are really crucial to our health. Now I think those two years were not meaningless. 

I am really happy that I met Dr Kohdera*, who gave me constant support regardless of my condition. My gratitude towards him cannot be expressed by mere words such as "thank you". I am truly, truly grateful. Now that I am healthy, my husband and I are thinking about having a second baby. 

I hope the day will come when all people who suffer from atopic derinatitits will recover just like I did and have smiles and laughter.

OraMedia - Dental Self-Sufficiency", the web site devoted entirely to 'preventive' dentistry.
The site was established to promote the works of Dr. Robert O. Nara, who fought a long battle with the American Dental Association and others in his profession over his views on promoting 'preventive' dentistry in the face of traditional 'restorative' dentistry. According to OraMedia's Director and site Editor, Tom Cornwell, "The cause and cure of periodontal (gum) disease was discovered well over 100 years ago. The BIG money, however, is in treating the 'symptoms' of the disease, and not the 'prevention' of it. The focus at OraMedia is teaching people to understand what causes the disease, and how to very easily control it."

"This should be good news to health-conscious people, and to parents especially," he adds. "In a business where, just 'dentures' alone is a $30 BILLION a year industry, I think there's probably a little room for 'preventive dentistry' for those willing to take on the responsibility for their own teeth. It is estimated that 98% of ALL Americans suffer from some stage of periodontal disease."

Mercury and B12 vitamin (Methylcobalamin)

The transport of vitamin B12 to the brain can be disturbed or interrupted by heavy metals such as inorganic mercury, which affects the blood-brain barrier by causing leakage and hampering the active transport of nutrients. Exposure to laughing gas (N2O), commonly given to women in labour, causes similar B12 deficiencies in the brain of the infant, and sometimes in mothers with low B12 levels (and the anaesthetist). When used as a sedative in connection with an operation, the gas can cause irreparable damage in an individual with B12 deficiency. 

The administration of relatively high doses of vitamin B12, in the form of methylcobalamin, in the treatment of fibromyalgia, diabetics, Multiple Sclerosis and amalgam-related disorders has been gradually increasing in Sweden since the end of the 80's. The results are remarkable. Some of the disorders that may be preventable or treatable with methylcobalamin, include chronic fatigue syndrome, Parkinson's disease, peripheral neuropathies, Alzheimer's disease, muscular dystrophy and neurological aging. 

METHYL B-12  Methylocobalamin 1000 mcg

02-01-1999 Japanese scientists have identified a form of vitamin B12 that protects against neurological disease and aging by a unique mechanism that differs from current therapies. Some of the disorders that may be preventable or treatable with this natural vitamin therapy, called methylcobalamin, include chronic fatigue syndrome, Parkinson's disease, peripheral neuropathies, Alzheimer's disease, muscular dystrophy and neurological aging. Americans have immediate access to this unique and new form of vitamin B12, and, unlike prescription drugs, it costs very little and is free of side effects. 

Vitamin B12 is a general label for a group of essential biological compounds knows as cobalamins. The cobalamins are structurally related to hemoglobin in the blood, and a deficiency of vitamin B12 can cause anemia. The primary concern of conventional doctors is to maintain adequate cobalamin status to protect against anemia. 

The most common form of vitamin B12 is called cyanocobalamin. However, over the last ten years, a number of central and peripheral neurological diseases have been linked to a deficiency of a very specific cobalamin, the methylcobalamin form, that is required to protect against neurological diseases and aging. The liver converts a small amount of cyanocobalamin into methylcobalamin within the body, but larger amounts of methylcobalamin are necessary to correct neurological defects and protect against aging. 

Published studies show that high doses of methylcobalamin are needed to regenerate neurons as well as the myelin sheath that protects nerve axons and peripheral nerves. 

Alpha-lipoic acid has been used for detoxification of heavy metal poisoning in Europe. This is taking advantage of its ability as a chelator instead of its antioxidant function, but there is fairly decent evidence showing its beneficial effects against cadmium and mercury poisoning."

Oral Chelation of Heavy Metals: Mercury, Lead, and Aluminum

Many people today suffer from what is often broadly referred to as "heavy metal toxicity."  The most common source of toxicity is mercury from dental fillings.  When the so-called "silver" fillings are put in the teeth, they are roughly 49-53% mercury.  In other words, the filling is an amalgam that contains some silver as well as what is for some people a lethal amount of mercury.  To determine the extent of possible mercury poisoning, studies were conducted on sheep.  The fillings were removed after six months and found to contain only about a fifth of the mercury that was present when the fillings were first put into the teeth.  The rest of the mercury had been leeched into the system and was found in significant concentrations in the brain and small intestines, though the liver and kidneys and lungs were also impacted by the mercury. 

In environmentally conscious dentistry, mercury is disposed of as a hazardous waste.  In some countries, such as Germany and Sweden, the governments are paying for mercury removal; however, in the United States, the American Dental Association, Federal Government, and suppliers of amalgam dental materials insist that mercury is safe and that it poses no health risks . . . except, it seems, for Duluth, Minnesota, where mercury amalgams are prohibited. 

Basically, insistence on the safety of amalgams is not just nonsense, but criminally irresponsible. For many people, mercury is a very significant cause of ill health.  Symptoms range from muscle spasms to severe neurological problems such as paralysis and memory loss.  For years, many people have been going through the quite expensive procedure of having amalgam fillings replaced with more stable and less toxic dental materials and following this ordeal with various types of also expensive chelation using intravenous vitamins and sometimes other substances. 


Cilantro  Quite accidentally, a researcher named Dr. Yoshiaki Omura discovered that some patients were excreting more toxic metals after consuming a Chinese soup containing cilantro.  Cilantro is a common herb whose seed, coriander, is a familiar culinary spice. read the rest of this extraordinary testimonial

Mercury From Amalgam Dental Fillings Major Factor in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?
Research including over 1000 peer-reviewed or government studies has been accumulated from the medical literature, documenting the mechanism by which mercury causes or is a major factor in over 40 chronic health conditions. Also accumulated are the clinical results of over 60,000 cases of amalgam replacement as followed and documented by doctors with evidence of cure or significant improvement in these chronic conditions: Autoimmune problems such as arthritis, MS, Lou Gehrig's Disease(ALS), Parkinson's/ muscle tremor, Alzheimer's, muscular and joint pain /fibromyalgia, chron's disease, lupus, scleroderma, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome(CFS), endometriosis , diabetes

"The hardest part of her return to health was the removal of 22 dental amalgam fillings" 

Lupus: Alternative Therapies That Work by Sharon Moore 

Moore suffered from lupus for 14 years. After taking control of her health care, though, and drawing on alternative therapies (usually called "complementary" therapies), she has "recovered." Books by lupus patients aren't unusual, but hers is the first to go into complementary medicine in detail. Nutrition and dietary supplements played major roles, Moore says, and naturopathy, traditional Chinese medicine, and mind-body medicine were in the mix, too. The hardest part of her return to health was the removal of 22 dental amalgam fillings, which gave new meaning to the trendy saw "No pain, no gain" but produced increasingly noticeable improvement. 

Lupus is an autoimmune disease in which the body’s own immune system attacks the skin, blood vessels, joints, and other tissues of the body. It is believed that there may be a virus that causes the development of antibodies, which then attacks good body tissues. Visual symptoms may include a butterfly shaped rash on the checks or the nose or in other locations on the body. Woman make up 90% of the people with Lupus and it is even more prevalent in Asian women. 

"In 2004 I began to experience a lot of joint swelling in my hands, shoulders, knees and ankles. That pain would simply jump around in my body without warning and I kept going to the doctor who concluded I had either strained a muscle or had a torn rotator cup. Eventually after CATS and MRIs showed no problems the doctor gave me a blood test and when it came back she said that I had Lupus. I was prescribed a series of medications that made me very ill. After researching more about lupus it occurred to me that I needed to find a doctor that specialized in autoimmune deficiencies. I found a doctor who specialized in autoimmune diseases and after a series of blood test this doctor told me I had RA, Rheumatoid Arthritis. She said that my RA factors were over 200 and started me on a methotrexate, and other RA combo drugs including, prednisone, cortisone shots and painkillers. The side effects of the medications were at times unbearable.

A friend of mine who at one time had stage four pancreatic cancer introduced me to Marine Phytoplankton and suggested that I talk to a friend of hers for more information. It was suggested that I began with 1 1/2 oz of Marine Phytoplankton a day and after 30 days I should see some change in my body. After being on so many over the counter drugs and prescribed medications I was a bit reluctant but decided to try it 3 days after purchasing it. After all, I really had nothing to lose. Within the first half hour of taking the Marine Phytoplankton I felt. The swelling had left my hands, completely (this is where the RA had settled). Each day I continued to take 1 1/2 oz of the Marine Phytoplankton and I have not looked back.

It has only been 30 days and I have not taken any medications for arthritis. I have been pain free and I have not had any joint swelling. This is truly a miracle for me and it is what I have been looking for. I am recommending it to everyone I know that has RA. I believe that Marine Phytoplankton is the all-natural product that is healing my body from the inside out. You must give it a try." T. W.

Dr. Jerry Tennant, M.D. says that marine phytoplankton contains almost everything one needs to sustain life and to restore health by providing the raw materials to make new cells that function normally. Marine phytoplankton has been called "the most nutritionally dense foods on the planet". Containing a wide range of trace elements, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, enzymes and cellular materials, marine phytoplankton promotes and maintains optimum health by boosting and supporting all systems within the body. Its antioxidants and unique polysaccharides can halt the genetic mutations that can lead to cancer. Both high levels of saccharides and adaptogens increase energy and stamina by improving our ability to consume and use oxygen. Adaptogens also improve cardiovascular health by strengthening the heart and circulation. more about marine phytoplankton's healing power

There are many case histories in homeopathic literature who have reported success with multiple sclerosis and lupus.  Also, holistic doctors have had success with Transfer Factor to modulate the immune system in their autoimmune disorder cases.

Raising Public Awareness
Most modern maladies are caused by prolonged exposure to a combination of negative lifestyles and toxic environmental factors, including junk food and malnutrition, pesticides, antibiotics, microwaves, chemical pollution of food, water and air, lack of exercise and chronic stress. These factors are further aggravated by the failure of modern medicine to recognize them as agents of dis-"ease" and death and the consequent failure to take preventative measures against them. more

Australian Health Department Withdraws Support for Amalgam

The Australasian Society of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (ASOMAT) played an instrumental role in the decision of the Australian Nation Health and Medical Research Council (NHandMRC) to withdraw their endorsement of the safety of Dental Mercury Amalgam, by submitting a six page report on the salient facts about mercury, dental amalgams and health effects.  ASOMAT submitted their report on September 16, 1997 and the NHandMRC withdrew their support on August 18, 1997.

Selected Studies on the Release and Toxicity of Mercury from Dental Amalgam
Published in Peer Reviewed Scientific, Dental and Medical Journals

Do you want to share your experience with mercury toxicity? Researchers seeking case histories of approx 5,000-8,000+ words of people afflicted with mercury toxicity. They are primarily concerned with the symptoms, history, diagnosis, treatment, and how the illness has impacted your lives and those of your loved ones. While they respect confidentiality, they are seeking these for publication, so the details you reveal could identify you to others. This is a publishing project, and those selected for publication will receive some compensation depending in part upon the success of the project. Email your comments or questions to mailto:%20hobbes@londonoffice.com


Sign the Petition
This petition calls for an IMMEDIATE WORLDWIDE BAN on the use of Amalgam Dental Fillings (50% Mercury) in Human Beings.  Each National Government will be given the signatures from this petition, so your city,state/province/territory, and country of origin are required. 

Uninformed Consent : The Hidden Dangers in Dental Care  by Hal A. Huggins D.D.S. M.S., Thomas E. Levy M.D

"This book focuses in more detail on the issue of dental induced toxicity. The book is well written and an absolute must for anyone suffering from any vague, unresponsive illness. This book also sends shock-waves through the standard medical dogma of what constitutes "incurables," in that case after case of serious medical diseases were reversed after removing mercury amalgams from patient's mouths. The book is co-written by a physician, who's own health benefits were revealed after he underwent dental detox. His account will amaze the nay-sayers and awaken the nearly dead from mercury toxicity. I am a suffering, long-term toxic reader, and I saw myself in every painful agonizing detail of mercury's wretched effect on once healthy tissue." an amazon.com reviewer

Elements of Danger : Protect Yourself Against the Hazards of Modern Dentistryby Morton Walker D.P.M

"Elements of Danger is a well written well documented book on the hazards of Mercury fillings and root canal cavitations. This is the first book of it's kind to include root canal and wisdom teeth cavitations along with mecury fillings. I believe this new technology is the answer to many peoples prayers. If you have an ailment and can't find a cause, read this book I did and it sure saved my life. After reading this book and battling cancer for two years, I understood what had gone wrong with my body. I decided to have my mercury fillings out and wisdom teeth cavitations cleaned out. I am now cancer free. Yes I said it CANCER free. It took only six weeks for my cancer to disappear. I would never have believed it if it didn't happen to me. Read this book and you too can learn what I learned too."an amazon.com reviewer

Heavy Metal Detoxification Resource:

Dr. Mark Sircus  - Children and adults are being exposed to thousands of trillions (quadrillions) of mercury atoms each day primarily from dental amalgam fillings in the mouth, which leak toxic vapors twenty-four hours a day seven days a week. Most recently though, mercury has been increasing in the foods we eat, especially in the form of fish. It is also increasingly in the air and the water we drink and is entering into the soil where it is just beginning to threaten biological activity there. In the next ten years, we will pollute the world with approximately another sixty to ninety thousand tons of mercury after already adding over 600 thousand tons during the past century. more

Dr. Mark Sircus, founder of Flor de Ouro Healing a Retreat Center In Brazil, heads the International Medical Veritas Association, an organization dedicated to unifying the various disciplines in medicine. Dr. Sircus is also the founder of the International Detoxification and Chelation Clinic,  which delivers health care services through virtual communication at reasonable costs.

Not all ACAM doctors are as good as others. The first ACAM doctor I used failed to test me for heavy metals. But when I went to the second ACAM doctor, he did test me and diagnosed me as mercury poisoned.  Be careful of detox methods. I would be very careful of DMPS as many have had bad side effects. See www.dmpsbackfire. com. DMSA can be safe if done in small doses. See my protocol for taking DMSA.

Consumer Alert! - Raising Public Awareness Most modern maladies are caused by prolonged exposure to a combination of negative lifestyles and toxic environmental factors, including junk food and malnutrition, pesticides, antibiotics, microwaves, chemical pollution of food, water and air, lack of exercise and chronic stress. These factors are further aggravated by the failure of modern medicine to recognize them as agents of dis-"ease" and death and the consequent failure to take preventative measures against them. The same chemical companies that produce toxic chemicals also produce prescription drugs, veterinary medicines, a wide array of medical products.

    What Every Parent Should Know BEFORE Their Childen Are Vaccinated! Why are a growing number of parents and health care professionals around the world questioning vaccination? The controversy stems from the thousands of deaths and permanent disabilities attributed to vaccination annually, as well as the many published medical studies, government statistics, What Every Parent Should Know BEFORE Their Childen Are Vaccinated - pictures from the CDC about the side effects of vaccinescongressional testimonies, and other credible sources that directly contradict commonly held assumptions about vaccine safety and effectiveness.

    Bart Classen, a Maryland physician, published data showing that diabetes rates rose significantly in New Zealand following a massive hepatitis B vaccine campaign in young children, and that diabetes rates also went up sharply in Finland after three new childhood vaccines were introduced.

    More pictures of vaccine damage available to view at the CDC website
    In fall 1997, two influential professional magazines featured articles asking the question: Has the decrease of infectious diseases in childhood through the mass use of vaccines been replaced with an increase in chronic diseases such as diabetes and asthma? The Economist, a prestigious international magazine read by world leaders in government, business and public policy, and Science News, a magazine read by both health care professionals and the general public, explored the reported links between vaccines and chronic diseases in their November 22, 1997 issues.

    This child died as a result of vaccines - pictures from the CDC about the side effects of vaccinesThis child died as a result of vaccines (CDC website)

    Congressman is calling for criminal penalties for any government agency that knew about the dangers of thimerosal in vaccines and did nothing to protect American children. Congressman Dan Burton (R-Indiana) during Congressional Hearing: "You mean to tell me that since 1929, we've been using Thimerosal, and the only  test that you know of is from 1929, and every one of those people had mennigitis, and they all died?" For nearly an hour, Burton repeatedly asked FDA and CDC officials what they knew and when they knew it. (Thimerosal contains a related mercury compound called ethyl mercury. Mercury is a toxic metal that can cause immune, sensory, neurological, motor, and behavioral dysfunctions.)
