Do you know that amalgam fillings are poisoning you. They constantly release mercury which eventually ends up in your brain and also primarily your hormone glands. Do you know that mercury intoxication causes hormone problems, heavy periods, psychological problems, heart problems and even cancer (just the tip of the iceberg). Do you also know that it is virtually impossible to prove intoxication and that diagnosis in alot of cases must be based on symptoms. And do you know that there are thousands of people out there aware of this and they are trying to cure themselves "the wrong way" because the medical profession will not deal with this problem. And did you also know that the ADA (American dental association) takes away dentists lisences to practice if they tell people that amalgam is not safe. This 'association' makes money from every filling placed (amalgam). IP: Logged |

Welcome! Unfortunately, due to naive parents and greedy/stupid dentists, I do have fillings, and for those of us who do (until we grow new sets of teeth either through gene manipulation--scientifically about five years away--or cellular regeneration via immortality), mercury can be rendered safe by taking copper supplementation. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

I knew that the amalgam fillings were poisoness. But I didnt know alot of those symptoms. Oddly enough in the last 3 months I have been dealing with the loss of my period (anovulation) due to PCOS (polycycstic ovarian syndrome) which is due to a hormone imbalance .... and my mouth is full of fililngs I was horrible about brushing my teeth when I was younger, especailly when I had braces. Interesting info you added there Randall, about hte copper. I hadnt heard that one ... thanks ! ang- IP: Logged |

Yes all totally true. According to the World Health Organization, amalgam fillings are the prime source of most mercury exposure. Each filling can release about 3-17 micrograms of mercury each day which can also be absorbed in the bones of the jaw. If you have them, please try and have them changed to composite fillings. They may not be perfect, but are less toxic. If you taste a constant metallic taste in your mouth it means they are over active. Please be mindful as this is probably something called methyl mecury which is caused by chemicals in the mouth mixed with the amalgams. Gia IP: Logged |

Thankyou those concerned for the warm welcome. I wanted to add a couple of things in reference to a couple of replies on this subject. First of all let me make it perfecty clear that copper is NOT helpful for mercury toxicity.:buddha: Copper is infact toxic also and poisonous in high amounts. There is literature that states that if your levels are extremely low then mild supplementation may help with the immune system but that is it.There is only one thing that can help with mercury and that is chelation.(only and let me repeat only after removing fillings.)Angel of hope---Braces, which I also had are not good with fillings seeing as that means you have two metals touching each other creating a battery and as a result more mercury gets released. And finally for today, there is an alternative to composite fillings as they take an hour and a half each to fit properly and only last for seven years. What I am referring to is what I had 'fitted'. I think they are called Ceram or something but I will get back to you all on that one. They did cost more (£400 each) but you cannot put a price on your health right. Anyway the dentist was Adam Sapera in London if anyone is interested. IP: Logged |

Ceram fillings are a micro composite too. I hope your dentist told you!? I believe it's composite mixed with a type of glass. I had mine removed last year, it chipped after only five years. It was in a back wisdom tooth though and I chew hard on my back teeth. Composite materials are ceramic based, just as ceram fillings are, only they are supposed to last longer. To be honest, I've spoken to the Director of Holistic Dentistry a Mr. Hajikakou also in London, who questions that they do always last longer. How long a filling lasts depends on many factors he said.Mecury is a cumlative poison and it's present in a wide variety of products not just fillings, such as, fabric softners, batteries, inks used in printers, some paints, some tattoo inks, polishes, solvents, wood preservers and so forth. Dr. Huggins has written a super book on on the dangers of amalgam fillings called It's All In Your Head and it's published by Avery. Copper is essential to us but high levels are indeed very toxic. The levels can be determined with a simple blood test. The use of oral contraceptives can increase the levels, as can tobacco. Low zinc levels could also indicate high levels. We need copper because when ill, copper is released by our bodies to promote cell and tissue repair, however we don't need it in high amounts. Gia IP: Logged |

Selenium can also negate the effects (one molecule of selenium renders one molecule of mercury safe). Copper supplementation should be limited to 2 mg (and taken separate from zinc), but selenium can be taken in much larger dosages (not really larger, because it is measured in micrograms, but larger in the sense of the single-capsule available measurements) of 250 mcg.------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

I've just spoken to a chelation therapist that said that copper chelate along along with iron and zinc chelate combined with sea kelp is good for mercury.Thanks Randall. I would not have known about the copper and mercury though I did already know about the zinc. I keep on learnin' Gia IP: Logged |

ok. Here is the deal and if you want more info refer to Amalgam Illness by Andy Cutler. Chelation is only safe and reliable with a synthetic supplement called DMSA. Dosage etc is all in Cutler's book and is referred to everywhere. If you chelate with homeopathic (ie.kelp etc) the chances are that the mercury will just get moved to somewhere else in the body causing more damage. And just for the record copper should not be taken by mercury toxic peopleIP: Logged |

There are numerous types of fillings now that are not mercury, any dentist that advertises as mercury free in the yellow pages offers them. They range from ceramic to plastic, but the plastic wears out in a few years. You can put a sealant on your molars so you don't get cavities, and brushing after every meal pretty much guarantees longetivity for teeth.As for replacing all your fillings, it's quite expensive around $3000-4000 for me with all my fillings. I had this done about ten years ago when my fillings were almost gone, I switched to Cerec which is inert and non reactive. So far so good, no metalllic tastes and no strange illnesses. However, I am not sure I would do that again, there is always plastic resins and new things are coming out all the time. I do not think it's a good idea to worry about something unless there is an organic solution especially for those out there with a lot of fillings. If you have a lot, don't worry. Just replace the broken ones as needed, over the years. you can tell if they are not working because your dentist can show you where they are worn down and not meeting the other tooth anymore. When that happens you can replace them, one by one. Natasha

Copper and zinc should be taken separately, because they cancel the absorption of one another. I take copper one day and zinc the next.------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you."

I just had a conversation yesterday with my Chiropractor/Neuro Emotional Technique Practitioner about mercury fillings. He also feels they are detrimental to our health and that after a period of years they will leak. He said in his practice there is a way to test them. So we did and mine leak. He urges that lil by lil one should get them replaced one by one. Or more if you have insurance and the funds to have them changed out. However, if you dont have the immediate funds there is a temporary fix ... all you need is a flashlight and a strong (not huge - but one with a good pull) magnet. You then take the magnet and place it on the light of the flashlight, then take both together and rub them along your face where your teeth would lay (not inside the mouth) I didnt have him explain the whole process to me; as far as why light? but he did say what we are doing is "De-magnetizing them" and again - its TEMPORARY ... he said i alone can do this at home every month or couple weeks should i feel the urge or begin to feel any symptoms. He also believes that when my hormones were outta kilter a few months back that the "leaking" merc may have had something to do with it. So there ya have it ... another easy "home remedy" although - again i must say... "Its only a temporary fix" ang- IP: Logged |
