Hi List, It is no longer necesary to get up in the middle of the night to
take Lipoic, because you can find Sustained release versions (300 mg dose))

Subject: CS>Mercury Detox Protocol
Hello Ken and all...
I have this book: http://www.noamalgam.com/ it is VERY good and the
author is a regular poster answering people's questions on this Yahoo
Group: http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/Autism-Mercury/ his name is
Andrew Hall Cutler.
He has a Very Thorough mercury detox protocol and he goes into great
detail about what it takes to get Mercury out of your brain as opposed to
just getting it out of your body. Apparently, ALA (Alpha Lipoic Acid)
crosses the blood brain barrier to get the mercury out.
An important part of his protocol is the timing of the doses. He has a
"several days on, several days off" protocol and the timing of the doses
is CRITICAL - meaning you have to take your ALA every 4 hours including
getting up in the middle of the night to take your dose.
He uses DMPS for mercury chelation and does not recommend chlorella or
Cilantro. About EDTA, in his book he states, "EDTA is an intravenous
chelating agent for lead. It is not very selective and superseded for
practical purposes by DMSA. EDTA is used by alternative physicians to
treat coronary artery disease, intermittent claudication, and peripheral
neuropathy with some success. It is not generally helpful for chronic
fatigue and other mercury related symptom complexes. Physicians familiar
with EDTA may not be aware that it is not the medication of choice to
treat lead or mercury intoxication at present."
Regarding DMPS he states, "DMPS is a chelating agent for mercury and
arsenic. Currently investigational in the US. DMPS is a water soluble
dimercapto chelating agent that stays outside the cells. It mops up
mercury and suppresses symptoms very well. Large doses (e.g. 3 mg/kg IV)
have been associated with risks of liver damage, neutropenia, and other
serious adverse reactions. Deaths may also have occurred. There are no
statistics but best estimates are that the risk may be as high as 17% per
patient undergoing monthly DMPS therapy by injection. Lower intravenous
doses appear to be safer, but not safe. Intramuscular administration
appears to be associated with more sever side effects and a greater risk
of adverse reactions. It is also painful. If yeast or fungus infection
occurs or progresses during therapy, suspect neutropenia. Agranulocytosis
can occur. When used properly by oral administration every 8 hours DMPS if
fairly safe and works very well. Proper use is described in the text.
Orally administered DMPS relieves symptoms more promptly and completely
than DMSA for the duration of therapy despite the fact that no more
mercury is excreted. It is often tolerated by people who do not tolerate
DMSA, or has a similar side effect at a reduced level that may permit
therapy. DMPS increases the excretion of mercury in the urine but not in
the feces. It also increases the excretion of copper and other essential
elements in the urine, but this does not significantly affect the body's
balance since these are primarily excreted in the feces.
I have to run but sometime tomorrow I'll post what he says about ALA
(Lipoic Acid), Chlorella and Cilantro if anyone wants me to.
I HIGHLY recommend: 1) his book and 2) the Yahoo Group I listed links to.
Blessings,

Subject: Re: CS>Mercury toxification cure?
I think we discussed this before, folks. The cilantro
"cure" if I remember correctly, does not actually
remove mercury from the body altogether. The study, I
believe, said that it was able to move the mercury
from the brain to less dangerous locations, however.
I wish I had the information again. I could probably
find it if I look on the 'net again. Anyway, if one
is in serious need of mercury removal, EDTA treatment
will do it. However, the highest amount of mercury
removed involves between 10-20 treatments of something
like 3-4 hours hooked up to an IV with the EDTA
solution. There might be better ways but that is the
traditional one.
