I finally had 2 of my four silver fillings removed and am feeling really bad.
For those that don't know, I am trying to overcome a severe autoimmune disorder which i firmly believe was caused by metal poisonings.
So, I purchased an e-book by Dr Huggins and am going to do a c-flush today.I have been drinking cilantro juices. I am even thinking a baking soda bath as he recommends.
What disturbs is that he claims that vegetarians don't heal of problems caused by metal poisoning. He claims you must eat animal protein to heal. I am really down right now and that is not what I wanted to hear.
I did a search on here for amalgam and wasn't able to come with much which is why I am asking again.
Thursday I get the last two fillings removed.
Thank you in advance for any help! I want to be healthy for once!

Have you tried zeolite? I haven't tried it but I've read about it and it supposedly chelates heavy metals from your body without stress to your organs. Maybe someone else on here has tried it...?

It's very effective for that. Gabriel Cousens has done a lot of research when he fasts people and the has a long list of metals and contaminants that it removes.

"At The Tree of Life Rejuvenation Center we have been
using Natural Cellular Defense (NCD) for almost a year
now. I AM very impressed with it removing heavy
metals, such as Mercury, Lead, Arsenic and Cadmium, as
well as environmental chemicals and pesticides, as
well as multitude of industrial chemicals and depleted
uranium (DU) from the body.

We did a 2 week fasting program using only green
juices, and of the 60 people tested, 88% showed a
100% reduction in heavy metals, chemicals, and
Depleted Uranium levels.

I was surprised to find that all of the people in the
study, even the ones who were on long term organic,
raw food diets, had in their systems all 26 of the
toxins we tested for."

I read about the Zeolite. Hey Mike, where are ya? I e-mailed asking about it but never heard back. I was just wondering if you could use it with silver and nickel still in your mouth. I don't want to aggravate anything. I already have a hard time breathing in the evenings when de-toxing anything.
Hey, does anyone know where to find Vitamin C sodium ascorbate? I just came back from the health food store and there were no C's with sodium or that said sodium on the label. I'm cluless on that one.

Have you thought of going to a forum where that (mercury fillings & detox) is all they talk about? I know of one but I don't know if you are allowed to post other sites' names here. Whatever you do, when you are detoxing, fillings in or fillings out, Algin is the best thing going.

Mimi,

I also had a hard time detoxing when I had my amalgam fillings removed. Are you doing it with a dentist that uses the correct protocol, with the dental dam and breathing mask etc.?

I've done a lot of reading on the zeolite product and it looks just excellent. In reviewing the materials from Gabriel Cousens, and also from the testimonials, there is no mention of amalgam removal. In other words, a lot of the people who use the zeolite still have silver/mercury fillings in their mouth. I think the zeolite would help you get rid of the overload you are experiencing now. You will need to really drink as much water as you can, too.

Regarding Vitamin C, I've found a great organic natural C from Amla here:

This is not a chemical denatured product. It has all the natural bioflavinoids etc. More info here: [ndmnutrition.com].

Good luck.

It's not good enough for Huggins to say that "vegetarians can't heal". Maybe he is right, but then maybe not. He would have to explain exactly why. Is it an insufficiency of amino acids in an ordinary veg diet? Is it certain essential fats? Certain minerals that are more likely to be found in meat? I'd be interested to know his reasoning.

Yes, my dentist tested the fillings and is removing them in specific order. He uses a vinyl dam also.
Thanks for the advice. I will look into Algin and Zeolite.
I purchased an e-book from Huggins and he briefly touched on the fact that animal proteins were different and essential to aid in detoxing.
The symptoms definitely get worse which makes me think this is the reason I am ill.That's good news in a way as there is hope that the problems I have had all my life will soon be alleviated.
Thank you

All Huggins said in his "detoxification" book was there was a spatial difference between animal protein and veggie protein. And although similar, the anilmal protein was dimensionally better for de-tox. He did say that he has never had a vegetarian heal on his program and that some may have gotten victory in this arena by being vegan but he has had no experience with this thus far.

Mimi,

I've never heard of such a thing (referring to Huggins saying you need animal protein for detox). This sounds like science du jour not sound science. Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Gabriel Cousins, and many others have fasted and successfully detoxed many many people without any animal products whatever.

What does your intuition and body tell you?

Hi Mimi,

Eat extra garlic, MSM, cilantro, kelp, and chlorella. They will help remove mercury.

Yes, you may use Natural Cellular Defense (NCD) zeolite even though there are metal fillings in your mouth.

This is from the NCD guidelines:

The activity of NCD is entirely passive. It will not attack hip replacements, breast implants, or dental fillings.

However, because of the possibility of mercury vapor in the mouth, it is prudent for people with mercury fillings to use NCD as follows: put the drops in a glass of water, take a sip to swish around in the mouth and spit out, and then drink the rest through a straw.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

NCD is much safer and less expensive than DMSA or DMPS chelation. You could have all the mercury out of your body in two weeks with two bottles of NCD. E-mail Greenie above for more info!

Almost all of us either have Mercury Amalgam fillings or know those who do. This is a link to a live experiment where you get to see the actual Mercury gases coming off a persons tooth when chewing, brushing or drinking a hot drink. It is measured at 1,000 times the EPA level for breathing air safely.

In a study conducted at Duke University Medical School on 35 healthy students, urine samples were taken at the beginning of the study and throughout the two month period that it was conducted. It was determined from the very first urination Mercury was being removed from the body. Zeolite has its greatest affinity with Mercury, and therefore it is the first heavy metal removed from the body, as it passes through the blood stream, digestive tract and soft tissue.

Algea contains natrium-alginates that removes heavy metal. That's all I know.

wheatgrass is said to be able to draw heavy metals out of the tissues.
Daily high Enemas followed by a wheatgrass implant would be worth considering.


If you still have amalgam fillings, it is reccomended that you take wheatgrass through a straw as I understand that the wheatgrass can draw the mercury from the remaining fillings.

As an earlier poster mentioned, it is best to seek a dentist that specialises in amalgam removal who follows correct procedure.

hope ypu feel better soon

It may be what Huggins was observing with the eating of animal proteins to heal was that the animal proteins stopped any detoxing effects, and at that point the body started to lose its symptoms. This doesn't mean that the body was truly healing, but that the toxins remained in the body because the body was too busy dealing with the animal products.

Animal products have higher concentrations of toxins than plant based foods. Higher in concentration because they are higher on the food chain.

If it were me, I would rather have symptoms until the poisons were gone rather than to suppress the symptoms.

Re algin (sodium alginate extracted from seaweed): It does not coax mercury out of the tissues; rather, it gathers up and send out of the body (thru bowel) any mercury in the intestines that was extracted from the tissue by other means, eg, cilantro.

If you take a chelating substance such as cilantro, the mercury may not all be excreted, as I understand it. Instead, it may recirculate and be redeposited in the tissues. Apparently, it is when this happens that you feel just horrid. Russ Tanner of herballure.com has much to say on this, since he had his fillings removed, then went thru a detox procedure. His business partner Laura had a dreadful detox, but is now well. I was impressed with their stories.

Re vegetarian VS meat-eater amalgam removal: Yesterday, after I posted my question, I read somewhere that Vit. B-12 is necessary for your liver to thoroughly detoxify your body, regardless of the particular substances involved.

CIlantro has strong heavy metal detoxing properties. Also I heard that infrared saunas are good for detoxing.

Interesting about cilantro as for the first three days that is all I did. But then again I took ascorbic acid yesterday for the first time and had a BAD night. Anytime my body has had to cleanse I have been severely affected, more so than the average bear from what I have read.
Thank you all for your help. I have received much from you in the last year or so. One of these days I'll finally emerge on the other side!

Greenie, how can I e-mail you? Your e-mail is hidden.
Mimi

Mimi,

I sent you a private message. Check your messages on this board. I'm reluctant to post my email here directly because of spam bots.

Hi Mimi, have you tried the zeolite?

I wanted to give you my review - I just tried it, and I LOVE it. I too have mercury fillings (though nowhere near the extent of your experience) - anyway I was averse to having them removed but did think that perhaps the mercury was causing my mild lethargy/brain fog despite being raw (albeit not 100%) for 8 months, and I have read that raw food alone won't chelate heavy metals from the body.

I felt very sleepy on it for the first week or so - and then bam! major energy. I really think it does exactly what it's supposed to do. I'm going to try it on my mom, too, as she has TONS of mercury fillings and major brain fog.
