This may be helpful to those who are dealing with toxic metal poisoning, from Ingrid Naiman .
In my observations of live blood, mercury and other toxic metals
act as inhibitors of certain other undesirable pathogens, especially
yeast and parasites. As the mercury is chelated, the restraining
effect of the toxins diminishes and these other organisms tend to
proliferate. If someone is very environmentally sensitive, it may
be necessary to address the toxic metals before the other problems, but
generally speaking, I find it wiser to eliminate the yeast and
parasitic infections before the metals.
