Re: Removing amalgam fillings

Hey Cheschire,

As Jason (Vx) mentioned earlier, this was wone of the best things he did in his battle against candida, etc. I would say the same. A no brainer as Americans say (I love this expression).

In 2000, I fought candida for a year and it evaporated about a week after Amalgam removal.

I couldn't figure out why candida wouldn't leave as I was doing everything - immune boosters, antifungals, probiotics, Chinese herbs, garlic, strict diet.

An homeopath told me that candida serves as a buffer to protect the intestinal walls from the damages caused by mercury. Most integrative doctors here seem to think that mercury (and heavy metal poisoning) are directly related to candida overgrowth (and even parasites).

In 2000, I researched the effects of mercury poisoning - it is the second most toxic substance to the human body (the first being plutonium). There is no minimal safe dose, meaning the smallest mercury particule in your system will create havoc. If you research the facts about mercury, you wouldnt hesitate one second. Actually, even old Amalgams still leach out (spelling? word?) mercury in your system - so you are not safe. The quantity of mercury contained in one filling would be enough to declare a lake unfit for fishing were it put into a lake.

In any case, the day after removing my Amalgams (I had six or seven), I felt more energy. And after that, candida resolved on its own.

So I would say just go for it. I don't even understand why people who are so plagued with health problems would keep Amalgams in the mouth. It should be the first thing to go!

If you are worried about any worsening of your symptoms, you could try a heavy metal detox after your Amalgam removal.

But am of the opinion that you will be really glad and relieved to have had them removed. Tweet
