Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
In this newsletter, we'll be discussing the horrors of chronic mercury poisoning from amalgam fillings, how to safely have them removed and replaced, and how to get the remaining mercury out of your body.

It has been determined that mercury is the most poisonous, non-radioactive, naturally occurring substance on our planet. The World Health Organization has determined that there is absolutely no safe level of mercury, because even one tiny atom of it in your body is doing some harm. Every knowledgeable scientist and health professional understands how poisonous mercury is.
Yet, the American Dental Association (ADA) and pro-amalgam dentists continue to say that the mercury released from these fillings is not a health hazard.
Think about this: regulatory agencies require that the materials that make up an amalgam filling, such as mercury, silver, zinc, copper and tin, must be placed in a hazardous waste container when entering or leaving a dental office! Yet there is no regulation of an amalgam filling when it's placed in a tooth!
It's a scientific fact that toxic mercury vapor is continually being released from amalgam fillings. 80% of it enters the body and accumulates within. This accumulation occurs because over time the body loses its effectiveness at removing mercury.
The cumulative effect of mercury has been proven to directly or indirectly cause, contribute to, or make worse every health issue we will ever deal with. Chronic mercury poisoning from amalgam fillings also takes years, even decades to accumulate before symptoms appear.

| There are at least 100 symptoms that are directly or
indirectly the result of chronic mercury poisoning. The number and severity of symptoms depend on a variety of factors, such as;
- how many fillings you have
- how long you've had them
- how they are stimulated (such as from chewing, brushing your teeth, drinking hot liquids, chewing gum, etc.), and
- how often they are stimulated
In addition, because mercury is classified as a neurotoxin it can also cause or contribute to emotional and psychological issues, such as depression, anxiety, mood swings and memory loss. Symptoms that worsen over time may signal the development of a disease.
This extensive list is actually only a partial example of some of the more common symptoms directly related to chronic mercury toxicity. Because mercury can indirectly cause harm by depleting essential antioxidants, such as glutathione and alpha lipoic acid that are needed to remove it and deal with other harmful toxins and free radicals, it can indirectly be contributing to even more symptoms and diseases than are listed here. I've categorized them according to body systems so you can scan them quickly.
CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
- irritability
- anxiety/nervousness, often with difficulty in breathing

Now that you know how toxic mercury fillings are, what should you do about it? My advice is to get an evaluation from a mercury-free dentist to see if removal is recommended. Then, make sure you begin to remove the accumulated mercury - naturally. There's usually no need to use extreme chelation methods that are very hard on the body when you are using nutritional balancing and the right supplemental nutrients.
First, it's important that you choose a dentist who is mercury free and mercury safe. An example would be a biological dentist or one who is a member of the International Association of Mercury Safe Dentists (IAMSD).
What distinguishes a mercury-free or biological dentist from others is that he/she:
- Never uses mercury (silver amalgam) fillings
- Follows protective protocols when removing mercury fillings
- Offers biocompatibility testing for dental materials
- Does not use fluoride
- Practices biocompatible gum therapy
- Has equipment to sterilze instruments without toxic chemicals and to prevent waterline biofilms
- Uses digital x-ray technology to significantly reduce the harmful affects of radiation
- Works in conjunction with other allied health professionals (MDís, nauturopaths, nutritionists, etc.)
- Receives continuing education in the field of biological dentistry
Once it has been established that mercury amalgams should be replaced and the process begins, it's time to begin detoxing what has already accumulated in the body by using only the highest quality foods and supplemental nutrients.
It begins by using a Fulvic Acid containing mineral or multinutritional supplement. Fulvic Acid has been documented as one of the most powerful and natural chelating compounds in existence. Additionally, nutrients such as L-Glutathion, N-Acetyl Cysteine, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Selenium, Amino Acids, Vitamin C and carbon-bonded vitamins and minerals will assist greatly in needed heavy metal removal.
I hope this information has been of invaluable use to you.
As I mentioned, my wife and I are visiting a biological dentist soon. I'll give you an update in the coming months.
Thank you once again for reading and I look forward to serving you!
Until next month, I remain yours in good health!
Sincerely,
