I wonder why there are so many millions of people who have a mouth full of Amalgams but yet dont have candida? If Amalgams were contributing towards candida then surely everyone would be as sick as some of us on here (sorry not trying to start any debate here just trying to fathom it out!). I know so many people who have even more Amalgams than myself and are healthy. I have been on the forum a long time and over the years I know of people who have had their fillings removed with no improvment in their health - infact found mercury to be a bit of a "red herring" - whilst some have even become more chronically sick after Amalgam removal. One of my many practioners that I have used interesting said that when candida is a problem and starts to affect the liver (which it does) then mercury along with other toxic metals cannot be detoxified efficiently and start to build up in the body causing further problems. Maybe this is why we have mercury problems and healthy folks dont because our livers are already compromised by candida? However everyone is different and what works for one doesnt always work for another. Like I said - not debating just trying to understand why thousands have amalgams with no candida.
