    All of the expert Dr.'s (specializing in detox) have said that a high protein diet is required for detoxification. A vegetarian diet slows down the body's natural ability to detoxify itself. The body needs amino acids which come from protein sources to assist in detoxification. One Dr. had said that he has never successfully treated a vegetarian. ...

    When people get worse while taking DMPS or DMSA its because they cant excrete what they are mobilizing....or they are reacting to the chelator itself. If the chelators couldnt "get to" the mercury then there would be no worsening of symptoms caused by redistribution of metals. The chelators are effective....there are several chelators...all effective for...

    Donna, Sorry you had a dissapointing appt. My second appt. with him was kind of like that too...or maybe it was the 3rd appt...cant remember. All I know is we went over alot of the same stuff. Dave was with me and he was disappointed....even more than me! I always read up on the supplements first...no matter who wants me to take it. I'm real...

    Kat, Integrative Dr.'s, LLMD's (Lyme Dr.'s), Naturopaths....lots of different Dr.'s do testing for mercury toxicity. The mainstream Dr.'s only test for acute toxicity which is useless. Any urine test without some time of chelator taken beforehand is useless. The chelator binds with mercury in your body and its excreted in the urine. They can then...

    Laura....did you get a new car?? Or is that car on your wishlist? I'm still trying to decide what I want. Nothing is really jumping out at me yet.

    I like that one!

    Yeah...its not just for you. I post for everyone....some people like detail.

    From the previous link.. All mercury is toxic, but each form is toxic in its own way. "You can hold the silvery liquid mercury from a thermometer in your hand and nothing would happen," says John Winn. "The danger of liquid mercury is in its vapor." That

    Elemental mercury Mercury is an extremely heavy, odorless, silver colored liquid. Mercury exists as a natural element in the earth's crust. Elemental mercury is also known as metallic mercury, liquid mercury, liquid silver and quicksilver. What are sources of exposure to elemental mercury? Sources of elemental mercury in the home include broken mercury...

    Susan Of course as Andrea said we are all here for you. You know that I'm sure. Take all the time you need and we'll be here to support you whatever you need to go through. It sounds like you've got a very good Dr. that you trust so thats a start. Hopefully one day you wont be dealing with the constant pain and you'll be a very happy dingo. ...

    Your husband knew her? When the 2 drops of mercury touched her gloves there was NO sign of anything. They did not know that it could go through the gloves and into her body leaving no trace. The gloves were intact. She went home that day thinking nothing of it. I remember reading the story the first year I was sick and learning about mercury. ...

    I cant open PDF's. I've been busy this morning. Got more info on LED treatments....still trying to find out more. Andrea...I got a little feedback on Dr. Elizabeth as well. Someone from the dentist office called me back. Of course the dentist would not...and will not speak with me. We talked for awhile...she had reviewed all of my history...

    Yay for getting an answer for Chloe. ALA mobilizes mercury but isnt good at holding onto it....so it redistributes the mercury if you dont have the other things in place like charcoal, chlorella, DMPS, DMSA, etc. Its not something you can take by itself if you're mercury toxic...you have to have everything else along with it...including organ...

    Ummm....you can bet it wasnt me saying it. " Its not hot to me until its hitting the 90's. Manteca has higher temps....I'm home now and loving it. I believe the results are based on what he's finding in ART...after testing a huge amount of people. I'm sure if someone goes to Dr. K with a Parkinsons diagnosis...he's probably got a good...

    I'm in agreement 100%. I've been saying this a long time as well....autoimmune disease doesnt just "happen". Autoimmune disease requires a trigger....a virus, bacteria, some other pathogen or environmental trigger. Genetics determine types of autoimmune disease you are susceptible to. Sometimes a pathogen can go undetected in the body for a lifetime....

    Andrea....he was basically just saying that pathogenic microorganisms (bugs) are living in all of us.....many different species. Then he listed (in order) the microorganisms most often found in all of those various diseases (ALS, MS, Alzheimers, Parkinsons, etc) From ART he knows which bugs show up more frequently in relationship with certain disease...

    I agree that more calories are important. I dont think it will necessarily improve the constipation though. Noone can accuse me of not enough calories ....I eat alot but constipation is always an issue. Even moreso when I'm killing yeast or doing other detox treatments. The *only* time constipation wasnt a problem was while I was eating ice cream...

    I think you should listen to your Dr. but I dont think she wouldnt want you take it because your immune system is shot. Whey protein boosts the immune system. It enhances the immune system. It also produces what is necessary for your body to be able to detox. If you are low in glutathione...you cant detox. Whey protein *makes* glutathione so that your...

    Sorry for the scary posts Bev.

    Detox....its most important role in recovery: Posts "borrowed" from LymeNet. There are some that have different beliefs. There are some that believe Lyme can be a player all on its own. I tend to agree with these posters...chronic illness involves a breakdown of the system...theres usually a whole "team" of players...

    Post taken from LymeNET... From Dr. Klinghardt seminar... Relationship Between Chronic Illness and Microoranisms When a microorganism is not recognized by the immune system, or not completely recognized, the guest will survive in the host. I believe that all of us are home to many species of pathogenic microorganisms that include large parasites...

    Well...YEAH....I think not hanging up the bag could make things more difficult. If you think the red bag is rancid or something dont use it. I dont know if its safe to use the fleet bottles if you're putting your own warm water in them....dont know it could leach chemicals from the plastic?? I dunno. It would be cheaper to buy another red bag...

    OMG....I KNOW....those recitals are soooo freaking adorable!!! I went to a couple of these....(with my EX)...BOO-HOO....no really...I'm OK now....I've recovered from all that! I LOVE watching the kids in costume and dancing...I'm partial to the hip-hop routines. Yeah...I was almost inspired to join a class myself. DITTO....I...

    Hmmm....I wonder what the EU means?? So I guess you dont know if it was tTG, EMA, Anti-gliadin IgA?? Well....hopefully you are starting to feel better with a few weeks on the diet. Its still early days.....you'll make mistakes and learn from them as you go. It happens to everyone but dont worry....it'll be second nature before you know it. Hopefully...

    Was it a bottle or a bag?? I always do this in the bathroom. I have two different ones...one for my moms and one for home. They both have hoses. One I got from Walmart after you and Carla were discussing yours. It has a shut-off valve but its up high (near the bag) and it makes things difficult for me. The other bag I got off the internet...
