well, everyone has different tolerances. some people have stronger immune systems and others have weaker. but just look at all people in old ages. watch the statistics. its almost 100%.. as they age the immune system is weakening..
about myself, I didn't have candida, but had terrible eczema and painful hands and feet... after the Amalgam removal, my eczema cleared and my palms and feet stopped hurting. But - I got candida and yeast infection! Its terrible! And I coulnd't do anything about it because I was breastfeeding my children fully.. so If I would chelate from the heavy metals my milk will poison the baby. Now the baby is nursing a little.. so I can clean up more vigorously. I started and it became even worse. Because more mercury and heavy metals are released, so more candida is needed. I take my time and wait! One thing I forgot to mention, candida deplets you from vitamin B12. Take chewable vitamin B12. And eat food that is high in vitamin B12.
I transformed my home to heavy metal free household products. It helps!
