ARCHIVED Omg...i Might Be On To Something
Rachel--24 replied to Rachel--24's topic in Food Intolerance & Leaky Gut
Oh....she also talked alot about parasites. She said that parasites are a big big problem when we're toxic. She said that they are stealing the nutrition so that no matter how much we take....we're barely getting any....the parasites get the majority of it. So this must be why I can take 20 freakin pills of Vitamin C and magnesium...but its not even... -

So I had a long conversation tonight with someone who's got a ton of knowledge about LED and all the other stuff. She was at the Cowden seminar for LED back in May. One day I shall be able to go to some of these things too!! Hopefully. Anyways, I asked about the need for furthur treatments...especially chelation....following my LED's. She... -

Ami, I'm gonna try to find out more from people who have seen the guy in Denton. I'll let you know in the next few days. I'm not sure if he's an LLMD as well but I learned about him from the Lyme board. As far as the LLMD you found...I would go to LymeNET's message board and post under "Seeking a Doctor". You are not allowed to post any Dr.'s full... -

Ami.....I came across your other thread re: mercury so it seems you've pretty much familiarized yourself with the topics of Lyme and mercury and other stuff we talk about here. I agree with Donna that there may be some mercury under the crowns which could cause problems with galvanic reaction...particulary if they are gold crowns. It sucks that... -

Hi Ami Glad you've been learning some things from our discussions and decided to jump in. I gotta run off to do some errands...just wanted to say welcome!

No....you should not do anything without knowing whats going on. You should be under a Dr.'s care and guidance before messing around with mercury detox. Some people do this stuff on their own and I think its fine for people who arent sick and are just doing whats necessary to prevent sickness from occuring....but for people who are already sick I think... -

I think its recommended that you take chlorella when eating fish. Chlorella absorbs the mercury for excretion much better than cilantro would. I'm not sure on how much to take though since I cant tolerate chlorella anyway. -

Claire, Heres some info. explaining why its important to use something like DMSA or other supplements (chlorella, modifilan, charcoal, etc) to grab onto the mercury you were exposed to during amalgam removal. Its not safe to use DMSA while there are still filings in place but once removed and if you test ok for it....its something that will really help... -

For me everything is tested with kinesiology....not ART...but traditional muscle testing. Thats how my LED Dr. does all of the testing necessary for my LED treatments. They pretty much test *everything* like this. I'm not scared to take the DMSA while under this kind of care because everything is tested ahead of time and I've already had the sulfa treatment... -

Its from the Explore article on Scotts website...its a PDF so I cant open it....but Miss Cruisin Spice was kind enough to email it to me.

Hi Judy!! I'm doing good. I missed your posts cuz I was typing. Sorry you felt bad today....hopefully tomorrow will be a better day and you can go work in the yard.

Claire, I wont be starting chelation after the 5th LED....I guess I didnt explain it very well. I'll be taking DMSA because my 5th LED is for mercury. After each LED there are certain detox supplements to help your body to remove the toxins. Unless I dont test well for the DMSA....thats what they would use to assist in removing the mobilized... -

Hmmm...maybe you should print these out and send them to him.

I would certainly look into Lyme....rings or no rings. I know of many many people who became ill when exposed to toxic molds, heavy metals, chemicals or other environmental triggers...and later diagnosed with Lyme Disease (among other things). The bacteria seems to be commonly found in ALOT of people....and not only sick people.....perfectly healthy... -

Yup the vinegar burned like heck but only for about a minute. I guess I was pretty desperate cuz I did quite a few of those "snizzles". The ACV was suggested for antifungal properties.....its always been about the stupid fungus for me. I've done the nasal spray twice now with no problems...hopefully it helps a little but I havent noticed much... -

Yeah...I'm pretty sure once I'm through with LED....chelation will still be in my future. Even if I was totally symptom free I'd still wanna start chelation....and I'll pursue that with Dr. S. when I get to that point. It should go pretty smoothly if I'm feeling alot better and have all the support I need. The new Dr. had said that we dont have... -

Sandy, If you can afford it maybe think about taking her to a reputable Integrative Dr......they are MUCH better at figuring out this kind of stuff. I dont see any mainstream Dr.'s anymore and I'm getting the best care and treatment that I've had since the beginning. I see a few different Dr.'s...a couple MD's and an ND....all WONDERUL! All... -

I think the results depend on alot of factors.....not the same for everyone. I dont think your family needs anything other than LED since you're starting this prior to reaching the point of illness. I see LED more as a tool to help me get to where I need to be at a quicker pace.....but I dont believe I could *just* do LED and recover. So... -

Julie....I've heard of a netti pot but wasnt too sure what it was exactly. Thanks for the explanation. A couple years ago when I was on a candida board someone suggested doing some salt water "snizzles"....or something like that. I was doing exactly what you describe but w/out the netti pot. Seems like the pot would have made things much easier... -
