you care about these words.

Hi there,

I am SAM, an Iraqi refugee living in Lebanon at the moment; I have spent the
last 10 years of my life as a refugee registered with the UNHCR in Beirut. The
last 4 years, I have spent as an activist for peace and human rights (especially
refugees and asylum seekers) on the Internet; I'm also books author and ebooks
publisher. I have launched many campaigns to improve our situation as refugees
in Lebanon and hopefully bring more understanding to our problems worldwide. I
helped make many changes and improvements at the UNHCR office in Beirut; I used
the Internet as the field for my activities (you can read more about that in my
free ebook 'MY CAMPAIGNS'). All my ebooks are free and could be download from my
sites.

This is my newest campaign, it's about the illegal and humiliating actions of
the UNHCR, who using photos of refugees as banners and human-buttons to collect
money. This is an abuse of the dignity and humanity of the refugees and must
stop immediately and a clear public apology present by The United Nations High
Commissioner for Refugees. My friends, I am talking about the pictures you can
see here:

Where you can read the rest of this message as web page.

For more info about UNHCR and life of refugees you can read my free ebooks. I
invite you as fellow humans and members of the world community to support my
campaign by reading my article on my site and see the human-buttons. The
campaign is to support and improve the UNHCR http://www.unhcr.ch especially
after the last scandals in the UN and UNHCR, just for example:

The refugees allege that UNHCR staff is selling most of the food items they are
supposed to be supplied.
"They aren't supplying sufficient food to us because they sell most of the food
items," they allege: http://allafrica.com/stories/200503140214.html

I am an American Board Certified Family Practice physician
interested in alternative, complementary, and holistic treatments
for Attention Deficit Disorder/Attention Deficit Hyperactivity
Disorder. I'm interested in this largely because of my experience
with my own ADD and that of two of my six children. I know what a
profound impact this diagnosis and these symptoms can have on an
individual and their family.
I have written a book on the subject, and am preparing a very
comprehensive website on the the subject.
I need your help in making sure that I understand your personal
experience and unmet needs with regards to ADD/ADHD.
In exchange for your help, I would like to offer you 3 things.
1. a copy of the my book as it is now. It is already packed with
alternative and complementary treatments for ADD/ADHD, and I know
that you can apply the information to improve the quality of your
life.
2. a copy of the final book when it is completed.
3. You will be entered into a randomized drawing for one free place
in our ADD/ADHD Camp to be held June 2006 at our private retreat in
the South of France! This is an especially fitting place for this
camp since French kids don't get ADHD.
Just complete these open-ended questions, and then click on the

New information from Dr. Boyd Haley reveals that an enzyme used to
methylate B12 is blocked by mercury.

Because methylated B12 is necessary for the processing of homocysteine,
naturally homocysteine levels increase in the presence of mercury.

Elevated homocysteine levels are associated with numerous diseases
including:

Atherosclerosis (hardening and narrowing of the arteries), heart
attacks, strokes, and possibly Alzheimer's disease.

Enter your vote today!  A new poll has been created for the
amalgamillness group:

If you have had amalgamil fillings or fillings containing
mercury removed has your health improved?

   o yes, greatly
   o yes, somewhat
   o it has remained the same
   o no, it has not improved
   o no, it has become worse

Following is a letter that Nina sent to her Dentist. She has given me
permission to post it online so others may learn from it and avoid
suffering the same fate.

Dr. Dana,

I am writing this letter to inform you of the consequences of my
visit to your office which took place on 2/08/05 following a
procedure of having two existing Amalgam fillings removed and
replaced with new materials.

I walked in that day to your office a reasonably healthy 27 year old
weighing at about 127lbs. The procedure that you preformed involved
drilling out the two amalgam fillings (It is common knowledge that
these unsafe fillings contain mercury.) Thus by drilling the amalgam
fillings out you have exposed me to the dangerous vapors of this
metal and I have also swallowed trace amounts of particles during
this procedure as no special care has been taken to remove these
dangerous fillings in a safe manner. Directly following this
procedure and the following few months, I had started to experience a
number of symptoms that include: insomnia, head pressure, nausea,
chest pain, digestive problems, diarrhea, kidney pain,
hallucinations, heavy sweats, heart pounding, twitching, fatigue,
anxiety and panic attacks, loss of appetite followed by loss of
weight (I am currently at 112 lbs).  As you can imagine this has
greatly impacted my ability to perform any every day functions as
well as continue my employment. I have visited numerous doctors who
in turn could not find an explanation for these symptoms as I did not
appear to suffer from any 'conventional' illness, until I was tested
for heavy metal toxicity and found positive.

At this time I ask you that you stop performing this unsafe removal
procedure on any patient that come to you for assistance on such a
service and to educate yourself and your staff on dangerous of
amalgam fillings and consequences of having them removed improperly.
I do wonder if you would have preformed the same procedure if your
own child was sitting in that chair instead of me that day? I would
certainly hope not.

Furthermore, even though you cannot compensate me for over 4 months
of misery that I have endured and continue to endure I do ask that
you reimburse me for the procedure that you did on that day as well
as compensate me for my visit to the ER due to a massive kidney pain
I experienced as well as my inability to continue my employment for a
period of 30 days.

This is the brief estimate of those costs:

04/03/2005 Visit to the Carrollwood University Hospital ER after
insurance: $221
30 day unpaid medical leave: $ 1800
The procedure you charged me for you will be able to find in your
records, I believe was in the amount of $108

Finally, I would like to say that it is sad that we live in a day and
age where the health industry in United States has become so profit
driven, that health of the population has become only secondary
motive to perform services. For example, even though your office took
no precautions to dispose of my amalgam fillings in safe manner, I
was repeatedly asked by your staff weather I wanted to 'buy' your
procedure called 'Zoom' that is whitening and bleaching of the teeth
and is purely a cosmetic procedure that most human beings do not need
for any health benefit. This procedure of $400 was offered to me on
more than one occasion even though I clearly had no need or interest
to get this done.

I sincerely hope this letter will make you consider that the motives
of your office are not entirely ethical and I asked to be reimbursed
for the irreversible damage you have done to my health.

Sincerely,

Nina ---

"The level of glucose in the blood is regulated by the hormone
insulin, which is manufactured by the pancreas. The process of
synthesizing insulin requires the formation of sulfur-based bonds
between two chains of molecules. Mercury, by interfering with sulfur
the binding site, can inhibit the production of insulin; an
insufficient level of insulin can cause the glucose level to elevate.
If your insulin is particularly susceptible to interference from
mercury, your glucose levels can get high enough for you to be
considered diabetic."

It's All In Your Head, Huggins, pg 96
http://herballure.com/vp/ayh


Triglycerides...

"I have seen cases in which glucose and cholesterol are in the proper
range while the triglyceride level is elevated 100 to 300 points.
This is quite a movement, since the desired range is 100 micrograms
or less per 100 milliliters of blood. A difference of several hundred
percent is quite significant when it concerns something that tends to
make the blood serum thick. **>This is often due to the body's
response to the presence of mercury<**. In some of these cases, the
triglyceride level later dropped 200 points within three days after
amalgam removal. In other cases, emotional stress will cause several
hundred points of elevation. This is where a doctor has to balance
nutrition against emotional stress against mercury in making a
diagnostic judgement. When mercury is causing a problem with
triglycerides, theough, changes are dramitic and fast following
proper amalgam removal and replacement with compatible substances."

It's All In Your Head, Huggins, pg 97-98 emphasis mine
http://herballure.com/vp/ayh


Cholesterol Elevated...

"If a person has 7 or more of these symptoms, there is a
significantly increased possibility that mercury toxicity is a major
contributing factor.
...
o- Unexplained elevated cholesterol"

International Center for Nutritional Research


Comment
There are also references in Huggins materials that cite low
cholesterol as a mercury marker. It seems that cholesterol can be
influenced either way by mercury depending on diet and genetics.


Heart Disease or Diabetes

Comment
Mercury blocks your ability to methylate B12 by interfering with the
enzyme methionine synthase. The methylation of B12 is necessary to
utilize homocysteine (and ironically glutathoine). This causes
homocysteine to become elevated.


"Homocysteine is an amino acid in the blood. Too much of it is
related to a higher risk of coronary heart disease, stroke and
peripheral vascular disease (fatty deposits in peripheral arteries)."

"Evidence suggests that homocysteine may promote atherosclerosis
(fatty deposits in blood vessels) by damaging the inner lining of
arteries and promoting blood clots. However, a causal link hasn't
been established."

American Heart Association


Comment
It's very interesting to note that Thimerosal (the vaccine
preservative) in inhibiting the methylation of B12, eventually
results in the inability to methylate DNA, RNA and various proteins
which is characteristic of autistic children. In other words, mercury
(in Thimerosal—the vaccine preservative) very likely causes autism.

You are not alone. Vaccines are causing harm to countless people.

I thought I'd just mention a few things so you can protect yourself
in the future:

- The red coloring in tattoos often contain mercury

- The red coloring in dentures often contain mercury

If you have these teeth removed, consider taking supplements to help
with your symptoms and to remove the mercury. I interact with natural-
health practitioners all over the country and they are doing amazing
things with herbs, vitamins and homeopathics.

Sulphur is a great chelator for mercury, plus Algin:

http://tinyurl.com/8omnl

helped me tremendously during detox. It helps prevent redistribution
and made all the difference in the world.

I take a whey protein supplement for the cysteine (sulphur-bearing
amino acid) which helps chelate mercury slowly and gently. I use
algin to prevent redistribution while detoxing, although I'm 90% or
more recovered now. I had my amalgams removed in July, 2000.

Forgot to mention...

I run in the alternative medicine circles. Here, it's well-known that
mercury in vaccines is causing autism. Even more, big pharma knew it
all along. Read this:

http://tinyurl.com/9dtye

Jinny,

I believe that these are the main causes of autoimmune diseases today:

- Mercury from vaccines and amalgam fillings

- Vaccine-induced Molecular Mimicry


I can relate to your anger, although my issues are not now as serious
as yours are. I had the majority of my life stolen from me by the
mercury in my silver fillings.

I lived with secret depression and secret suicidal thoughts and
feelings all my life and developed a myriad of health issues
beginning in my early thirties. I lived all of my life extremely shy
(mercury induced) and withdrawn and am still single because of it.

I could go on and on but the bottom line is this: "Modern medicine"
causes my life to be ruined up until now, although I'm 95% recovered,
I still have to take precautions and suffer from time to time.

Funny thing is, I don't believe I ever had a cavity.

You Said:
If at all possible I would love to be able to make the case for amalgam
illness. I would not hesitate to involve the media if I could prove
something.

Jinny


I Said:
I would highly recommend a book that is the best I've found that makes
and excellent case for amalgam illness:

ok then how the heck are people supposed to eat? I not only have
developed these autoimmune diseases but I am allergic to mercury as
well. Not too many people I know can afford to go out and get
implants. Is there some other alternative i"m not aware of?

Russ replied:

It's horrible what is happening. This is why I'm attempting to make
people aware of this issue.

The ADA is continuing to lie about it. Most Dentists are in denial
about it. The fact is, they are placing known toxins in your mouth.

There is no such thing as a mercury allergy: It's a well-known
neurotoxin.

I would seek a lawer who will work with you and go after the Dentist.
I know it's easier said then done, but you may have a really good
case and you may have a victory. This whole thing is terribly unjust.

Very sorry to hear about your situation.

Jinny Said:

that's great new Russ but how long will it take if at all before
dentists start opening their mouths about this?  I'm in Florida and
you'd be hard pressed to find a dentist here to agree with it.

So true, I lived in Florida all my life up until 2 years ago. Most of
my friends who brought this subject to their Dentists got scolded.

My friend Jonathan got yelled at so loudly that the people in the
waiting room could hear.

JUST A BRIEF NOTE ON MERCURY COURT ACTIONS

Bet you didn't think I could be brief. Relatively, of course.

As of 14 July, dentists in Connecticut can now speak as human beings.
The first amendment of our Constitution has not applied to dentists
since Dr. Huggins made his presentation to a formal meeting at ADA
headquarters in 1984 about the toxicity of mercury. After that
meeting, the ADA adopted a new strategy of removing the licenses of
any dentist who "mentioned" that mercury might be hazardous. This was
called a "gag rule".

Many dentists have been caught in this net. That is changing. Dr.
Mark Breiner was threatened with license revocation on numerous
occasions due to writing about mercury toxicity in newspapers and
telling his patients about it. The ACLU and Breiners attorneys fought
for several years, and the 14th was the result. He may speak with
first amendment rights. He may say that mercury is poisonous. At
first the dental board said he could write, but not tell his patients
in his office about mercury toxicity. The judge did not buy it.

Believe it or not, the state of Connecticut must pay the ACLU its
legal fees. This should send a message to other states that dentistry
cannot continue to place poisons in unsuspecting, trusting patients,
and get away with it.

Attorney Charlie Brown has fought this battle for 7 years, I believe,
and has been involved in successfully curtailing threats to dentists
in Florida, Arizona, and Maryland. In California attorneys even got
the state board of dental examiners abolished for a year. They took
heed, but mercury is still a problem in California.

To quote Charlie Brown (former Attorney General for West Virginia I
think) "The ADAs rule of conduct forcing silence on the part of
dentists has been one of the greatest impediments to consumers
learning the truth about amalgam or even learning they are mainly
mercury, and not "silver". A decade ago, the ADAs monopoly was
unchallenged and the dental boards it is still hard to believe were
AGENTS of the ADA, taking licenses from dentists who would not kowtow
to the gag rule."

Attorney Sandy Duffy and the ACLU in Oregon and Iowa led a fight that
led to having the ADA gag rule declared "unconstitutional".

In Alabama, the dental board, after a couple of years of harassing
Dr. Ada Frazier, finally allows her to advertise that she is mercury
free. This was a big defeat for the dental board, who expected her to
quit dentistry and start waiting tables where they wanted her. They
dont know Dr. Ada.

More and more actions are being initiated against the ADA, and I have
the feeling that it will not be recognized as a "Health Profession"
organization much longer.

Hal Huggins

You need to get a Doctor to "declare" that the teeth (or fillings in
the teeth) are the cause of those issues. Just keep searching for a
Doctor who is knowledgable in this area and you may be able to get it
done.

Note: Be careful with dentures. I have heard that the red coloring used
is mercury-based, just like the red coloring in tattos.

No one I know first-hand has told me this happened to them (of course
most of the people I know had mercury removed in the past year), but I
have heard second-hand from people it happened to.
