> How can I detox metal(mercury) toxicity until I can afford to have dental Amalgams removed?
:) The following is a copy of an email I received concerning toxic metal removal. It's a bit long but very interesting. :)
A recent example involves the work of Dr. Yoshiaki Omura.
Dr. Omura recently informed us that he discovered, almost by
accident, that the leaves of the coriander plant can accelerate
the excretion of mercury, lead and aluminum from the body. He
had been treating several patients for an eye infection called
trachoma (granular conjunctivitis), which is caused by the
micro-organism Chlamydia trachomatis. Following the standard
treatment with Antibiotics . Dr. Omura found that the patient's
symptoms would clear up initially, then recur within a few
months. He experienced similar difficulties in treating viral
related problems like Herpes Simplex types I & II and
Cytomegalovirus infection.
Cilantro Helps Flush Out Heavy Metals
After taking a closer look, Dr. Omura found those organisms
seemed to hide and flourish in areas of the body where there were
concentrations of heavy metals like mercury, lead and aluminum.
Somehow the organisms were able to use the toxic metals to
protect themselves from the Antibiotics .
It just so happens that while he was testing for those metals,
Dr. Omura noticed the mercury level in the urine increased after
one consumed a healthy serving of Vietnamese soup. The soup
contains Chinese parsley, or it is better known in this country,
cilantro. (Some of you may also know it as coriander, since it
comes from the leaves of the coriander plant.)
Further testing revealed that eating cilantro also increased
urinary excretion of lead and aluminum. And when cilantro was
used concurrently with Antibiotics or natural anti-viral agents
and/or fatty acids like EPA with D.A., the above infection could
be eliminated for good. Dr. Omura has made a remarkable
discovery. He's found a novel technique which greatly increases
our ability to clear up recurring infections both viral and
bacterial. And perhaps more exciting, he's discovered an
inexpensive, easy way to remove (or chelate) toxic metals from
the nervous system and body tissue - one that anybody can use.
This is Great News for Amalgam Sufferers
Chelation therapy using chemicals like EDTA has long been used to
help remove these heavy metals, but cilantro is the only natural
substance I'm aware of that has demonstrated this ability. This
will become news for people suffering from the ill effect of
amalgam dental fillings, which contain approximately 50% mercury.
Dr. Omura recently performed another study in which 3 amalgam
fillings were removed from and individual using all of the
precautions available to prevent absorption of the mercury from
the amalgam. Even with strong air and water suction, water
rinses, and a rubber dental dam, significant amounts of mercury
were later found in the individual's lungs, kidneys, endocrine
organs, liver and heart. There was no mercury in these tissues
prior to the Amalgam removal.
Remarkably, without the help of any chelation agents, cilantro
was able to remove the mercury in 2-3 weeks. Since some of the
patients didn't like the taste of fresh cilantro, Dr. Omura had a
pharmaceutical company create a 100 mg. cilantro tablet. In the
above dental study, one tablet was taken 4 times/day. AS of yet,
I haven't been able to find a tested commercial tablet of
cilantro.
It is believed that the active component in cilantro are easily
destroyed during processing. For this reason, I recommend
sticking to fresh herb. It can be eaten raw in soup or salad, on
tacos, or as a garnish with practically any dish.
Recipe for Cilantro Pesto
I would think it should also work if the cilantro were juiced,
but perhaps the easiest and tastiest way to use the herb would be
as the main ingredient in a homemade pesto sauce. You can start
with the basic recipe below and add other nuts and spices to
suite your taste.
1 clove of garlic
1/2 cup almonds, cashews or other nuts
1 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
6 Tbsp. olive oil
Put the cilantro in blender and process until the cilantro is
chopped. Add the rest of the ingredients and process to a lumpy
paste. (You may need to add a touch of hot water and scrape the
sides of the blender.) You can change the consistency by
altering the amount of olive oil and lemon juice, but keep the
3:1 ratio of oil to juice. (It freezes well, so you can make
several batches at once.)
In light of ever-worsening quality of our water and soil and the
widespread use of metals in everyday items like deodorant nd
cans, I would seriously suspect that all of us have some toxic
metals in our body. And unless they are carried out by a
chelating agent, things like lead, aluminum and mercury remain in
the body forever. This is associated with arthitic conditions,
depression, muscle pain and weakness, memory loss and
deterioration, and maybe even Alzheimer's disease.
