MERCURY AN INSIDIOUS POISON & How to deal with it

MERCURY IS AN INSIDIOUS POISON

Although under reported in the news, last April the US court of Appeals ruled that it was not able to make a specific ruling in the case of Moms Against Mercury amalgams versus the FDA. However, opponents of mercury realize that the FDA had to make some serious concessions, including that more research was needed to prove the safety of dental mercury amalgam .

One of the main complaints about the dental industry that even the lay person can relate to, is the insistence of disposing the filling waste in toxic waste containers, while the remainder is placed in people’s mouths .

The Department of Environmental Protection writes the following instruction:

“All contact and non-contact scrap amalgam should be salvaged and stored in separate containers. The containers should be structurally sound and labeled as to the contents (example – Hazardous Waste: Contact Amalgam). ”

Scientist advocates like Boyd Haley have given numerous lectures on the dangers of mercury in the body, its dangers to children, and its links to autism, despite many efforts by the mainstream to prove its safety in products like vaccines and dental amalgam.

Mercury is known to cause neurological and other organ systems damage . Mercury miners have been shown to die early, from diseases such as high blood pressure, heart disease, and from problems with blood vessels going to the brain .

Although the levels of safe exposure to mercury continue to be debated, activists concerned about mercury contamination in workers continue to discuss guidelines to determine worker safety in those who are routinely exposed to mercury. One medical abstract claims that the lowest clinical level of toxicity, a fine motor tremor, can be detected at contamination levels of 30mg of mercury per gram of creatine in a urine test, although another site claims toxicity can be detected even at 50 micrograms, or .050 milligrams of mercury per gram of creatine, which is a big difference . Symptoms of low-level mercury contamination can be subtle. Someone with low-level contamination might show:

“Psychological disorder and impaired nerve conduction velocity in sensitive subjects, with subjective symptoms of irritability, fatigue and anorexia”.

Excess protein in the urine as well as microscopic kidney damage may result from low level contamination as well .

Mercury contamination, however, is not just relegated to miners and those with fillings. Contamination is widespread:

Mercury may also be found in untested supplements and traditional remedies which can contain high amounts of heavy metals if we are not sure they come from a trusted source.

One of the reasons why the government has issued warnings against eating seafood for women who may be pregnant is that mercury rises in the food chain, by animals living in contaminated environments. It can concentrate in seafood, making it easily consumable in the form of a favorite American dish . Six percent of women in childbearing age have mercury levels over the recommended allowable level . Although this seems like a relatively low number, extrapolation from government census studies of 2003 indicate that there are over 54 million women of childbearing years in the United States , translating to well more than 3 million women who are living with this higher mercury level.

Mercury contamination also comes from a wide variety of sources in our environment, including Clor-alkali plants, which make lye from a mercury catalysed process (over 80,000 pounds a year), Coal burning plants (100,000 pounds a year), and auto burning plants, which do not take the time to remove the small amounts of mercury which contaminate the environment (20-24,000 pounds of contamination) .

Another reason for mercury contamination is government inability to control certain types of pollution . In 2004, the Executive branch stalled legislation to improve mercury processing at coal plants. China will continue to build over 50 coal plants a year for the next several years. Despite the fact that new cars no longer use mercury in their accessories, older cars continue to be burned for scrap, still containing their old mercury . Generalized runoff from our lawns, gardens, automobiles, and driveways are more difficult to control legislatively .

If you suspect that you may have mercury poisoning, you may try the following test. Try taking 50 mcg (micrograms) of selenium a day for a week or two and see how you feel. (If you are allergic to yeast products, look for the selenium tablets made without yeast.) Additionally, you may try 15 mg of Zinc 2x per day with the Selenium, and thiamine twice a day in a 50 mg tablet .

A protocol for mercury decontamination of the body (under the care of a licenced practitioner), may contain the following:
