>Morgan, Thanks for the quick response to the Biologic Dentists.


You're welcome--it's my current focus. I had my amalgams
removed over 10 years ago, now, and just took a challenge
test for retained heavy metals. Got the results back this week.
My mercury levels were OFF THE CHART--
sixteen and a half times the allowable, according to OSHA
standards for acute, occupational exposures. And, I had my
amalgam removal done, sequentially, by the appropriate type
of dentist with training in the procedure,.along with additional
supervision by a doctor who performed adjunctive Vit C
chelations (1990-1991).

I am glad I did this challenge test, because even chelating
out just that small test amount has made a tremendous
difference in how I feel! I was only half-way through the IV
when I could feel the burden lightening. Wish I hadn't waited
this long!

My son also tested as having unacceptably high levels of
mercury--not acquired from dental work of his own, because
the little he has had has been composite--it represents
heavy metals toxicity he acquired in utero, from MY dental
work and life-long dental work environment exposures.

My son has always been assessed as having "genetically" weak
liver and kidney function, meaning there is a family history of
same, and the professionals can't explain why, nor, therefore,
can they do much of anything out it. From the test results, we
now know his problem is inherited mercury poisoning--go
figure, the family members who, previously to him, had similar
weak organ function were dentists who handled and breathed
mercury day-in, day-out, all of their lives, or lived and worked
in dental offices that were not appropriately ventilating their
mercury vapor Now, unlike before, something can be done
about improving his organ function, by getting the stored metals
out of his tissues. Doesn't that make you wonder how many
other things get loafed-off to being hopelessly "genetic", when,
they are really a symptom of heavy metals overload?

I also wonder how many other people are out there trying to
flush their livers of something that is next to impossible to flush
out--heavy metals--they really booger-up the metabolism, big-time,
by de-ranging the enzyme and hormone systems, tying up necessary
receptor sites, displacing other vital mineral co-factors, etc. ,etc.
There are a ton of "syndromes" diagnosed, today, that have poor
prognoses, that I think have a root cause in mercury poisoning.
I feel I was busy flushing effects, and had yet, until now, to
address their cause.

I highly recommend diligently pursuing heavy metals assessment
and detoxification past the point of amalgam removal.

To your health,
Morgan
