Welcome to the FDC Forum,
[Please] read and familiarize yourself with the information in the files
section and links section on this site before posting -
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/frequent-dose-chelation/files/.
It will help you tremendously in finding chelation information that has
already been organized, will answer many questions and aid as reference
material and this forums purpose - rules, etiquette etc.
I have a suggestion for all those starting chelation using Andy's protocol.
Regardless of the dosage recommendations in the book [by weight], I and
a number of others with years of experience suggest starting with a much lower
dosage.
We suggest starting with 12.5mg or less for 4-5 rounds to see how you respond
to the chelator [DMSA, DMPS or ALA]. Many people find that using the dosage
recommendation in the AI book to be way too much and it can cause side effects
that can be very severe and long lasting. It is much safer to start with lower
dosages and [slowly] work up. This way you do not harm yourself and it doesn't
take that much longer.
