Mercury in amalgam doesn't leak first of all, and second, its effects are neutralized by the silver.

Now that I think about it, I think I chose a bad title for this topic. I guess I was trying to get people interested enough to look at it. I should have put "New study on 2 possible causes of autism" or something like that.

That's what the ADA used to preach. Now that there's substantial evidence against that, they now admit that 1-3 mcg/day is released from amalgams although some studies say 12 mcg/day is released on average and up to 100 mcg/day in some people. I think the EPA safe limit is around 7 mcg/day and is as low as 1.4mcg/day in some countries.

ADA admits 1-3mcg/day in news release in July 2002: http://www.ada.org/public/media/release ... ease01.asp

LeKiwi, one hard part about diets is that I'm allergic to nuts and soy. I also can't eat many veggies because they cross-react with a latex allergy I have. I think the vit C, echinacea, and garlic will help me in the future. I used to cook with lots of garlic (I like the taste alot) but now it makes me worse. Vitamin B6 never bothered me before but now it does. That was 3 years ago. I think I have some autoimmunity now as the result of an infection that got worse or maybe from mercury from an amalgam filling I got 2 years ago. I read stuff about mercury may cause immune dysfunction which may lead to chronic infections.


Ugh, that's horrible!! What can you eat? :P

I guess the best thing is to just take it slow and help your body repair itself as best possible. The body does have the capacity to heal itself of most ailments - you just need to give it the fuel to do so, which of course varies from person to person.

I have a feeling I'm developing an allergy to almonds now, after half my lip swelled up after eating some yesterday, so I may have to cut back on my nut intake too! Apparently it's common for nut allergies to develop later in life in people with egg allergy. So that's a bit annoying, but I can live with that. Some people have it far worse.

Have you looked into getting the mercury filling replaced? I know it's expensive but I know people who've had it done and noticed vast improvements in their health. Mind you, these are people who've had 3 or 4 replaced, not just the one. I've never had a mercury one - refused and insisted on 'white' composite instead for the one filling I've ever needed - so I can't speak from personal experience. I know one dentist whose son was born with permanent mercury damage due to her working with the amalgam ones all the time, which is proof enough for me. The thought of it being in your mouth all the time is just... ugh, no ta.

What the dentists won't tell you is that the composite fillings also have toxins in them. They're much more dangerous than amalgam.

I used to eat a lot of processed and microwaveable foods and kept having more trouble digesting them. Now I know it's because they keep adding soy to new products every year. It's in everything now. Even though I'm allergic I don't want that genetically modified crap anyway (almost all soy in the US is genetically modified). I eat lots of brown rice and meat. I was doing gfcf for awhile. I recently stopped and now I'm adding new foods.

I have 2 mercury fillings. The other one is really small. My dentist said he will replace it even though he thinks it won't help. I like my dentist alot but he won't use much safety protection to remove it so I'm thinking about a mercury-free dentists but I know there's alot of bad dentists so I'm still deciding who to go to.

Who are you? And why do you post all this crap? You've made several inaccurate statements with nothing to back them up. Show me the evidence that says composite fillings are "more dangerous than amalgam."

Find a more reliable dentist. Don't believe everything dentists and doctors tell you. And please don't criticize other posts unless you are sure you know what you're talking about.

Considering how many have accused you of trolling for simply going against what appears to be the status quo on here (suggesting anything to do with possible cures/alleviation of the worse symptoms), I'd say this is trolling to a greater extent...

Except I know what I'm talking about. All my info comes from dentists and doctors who AREN'T associated with big pharma.

Wow, what part of "IF YOU ARE OFFENDED AT A CURE, PLEASE DON'T READ BELOW" did anyone not get? 8O
It was pretty literal to me. He did warn everyone and he still got this crap, being accused of being a troll. I wonder if I'm going to get accused now of trolling too since I disagree with those people about him trolling. He did warn everyone about the post. Now who on earth would make that post and warn anyone at the beginning of it mmmm?
A real troll wouldn't do that. They would just go ahead and make the post without posting the warning in it at the top.

There are people out there on the spectrum who do want to be cured because then it gets rid of their problems and their life be easier.

I added that later after I was accused of trolling so people who would be offended wouldn't read it. I picked a bad title too about autism being caused by an infectious disease. I wanted to get people's attention and didn't realize I'd offend alot of people. So I understand why they said I was trolling. I'm misunderstood alot in the real world. Was a little surprised I was misunderstood here.
