Dental Amalgams the "silver" fillings in your teeth
Is It Safe?
Dental amalgam, the material in “silver” tooth fillings, contains approximately
50 per cent of the highly toxic heavy metal mercury. But is it safe to
put so much Mercury, the most toxic non-radioactive metal known to man,
into the mouth of a person? more

The "silver" fillings in your teeth - Dental Amalgams - are
still widely used by the dental profession in most parts of the world.
The "Amalgam" consists of a mix of metals - Generally 50% Mercury, 35%
Silver, 15% Tin and other metals. But is it safe to put so much Mercury,
the most toxic non-radioactive metal known to man, into the mouth of a
person? There is now a growing mountain of evidence that it is NOT safe
to do so. Some countries, like Sweden, Canada and Germany, have either
banned or imposed serious limitations on Amalgam usage. There is now compelling
evidence from reputable scientific bodies such as the World Health Organisation
that, despite claims from pro-amalgam bodies such as the American and British
Dental Associations (ADA/BDA), mercury is NOT "locked" safely in the metal
bonds in the teeth, but can leak slowly into the body, often causing severe
illnesses. These are reckoned to possibly include ME/CFS, Multiple Sclerosis,
Alzheimers, and a whole range of "auto-immune" illnesses. In fact, just
by damaging the immune system, Amalgam could be contributing to an even
broader range of illnesses. IS
DENTAL AMALGAM SAFE?
Mercury's extreme cytotoxicity and neurotoxicity is a major
factor in the neurological conditions, along with its inhibition of basic
enzymatic cellular processes and effects on essential minerals and nutrients
in cells. Mercury is also documented to cause imbalances in neurotransmitters
related to mood disorders. A direct mechanism involving mercury's inhibition
of cellular enzymatic processes by binding with the hydroxyl radical (SH)
in amino acids appears to be a major part of the connection to allergic/immune
reactive conditions such as autism, schizophrenia,
lupus, eczema and psoriasis, scleroderma, and
allergies. Immune reactivity to mercury has been documented by immune reactivity
tests to be a major factor in many of the autoimmune
conditions.
Dr. Whitakeron mercury: In the May issue of Health and
Healing, I told you about the two most common sources of toxic mercury:
seafood
and dental amalgams. But there's a third source of mercury that
you should know about, particularly if you are the parent or grandparent
of a young child or are expecting to have a child: vaccines.
Until recently, a form of mercury called thimerosal
was used as a preservative in many of the vaccines given to infants
and young children, including vaccines for hepatitis B, influenza, diphtheria,
tetanus, pertussis, and Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib). Congressman
Dan Burton (R-Indiana), who spoke before the House Committee on Government
Reform's hearing on mercury and medicine last year, knows just what this
poison can do to the delicate brain and nervous system of a young child:
his once-healthy grandson, who was given vaccines for nine different diseases
in one day, now suffers
from autism. In Burton's estimation, his grandson may have received, in
the space of a few hours, 41 times the amount of mercury at which harm
can be caused. Unfortunately, his grandson's experience is not unique.
U.S.
Government Concedes That Mercury Causes Autism
Human destiny is on a collision course with mercury. Tomorrow we will
all wake up to a world with about twenty tons more mercury in the environment,
another ton will be put into people's mouths by dentists, and tens of thousands
of little children will receive vaccinations laced with toxic mercury
molecules, in the form of ethyl-mercury, super-charged with aluminum. In
a world rapidly approaching some saturation point with mercury these twenty
tons are significant. The longer medical and governmental authorities deny
the full mercury story the higher the tide will rise as concentrations
increase on land, sea and air. Mercury is a reality that has to be taken
into account by doctors and everyone else. Though mercury is accompanied
by tens of thousands of other chemicals in the environment none are as
toxic nor as prevalent. We are destroying our children and our future with
an invisible enemy as surely as if we have fought and lost a nuclear war.
Mercury Destroys Brain Cells As I mentioned in the newsletter, mercury is a neurotoxin that is especially
damaging to the developing brain and nervous system. A growing number of
researchers believe that the soaring rates of neurological and developmental
disorders in our children can be linked to a corresponding increase in
the number of government-mandated vaccines.
The number of compulsory vaccines has increased from 10 to 36 in the
past quarter-century, and over that time period, there has been a simultaneous
increase in the number of children suffering from disabilities that prevent
them from reaching their full potential. The incidence of learning disabilities
and attention deficit disorder has doubled in the past 25 years, while
autism has increased by an incredible 200 to 500 percent in every state
in the U.S. in just the last decade. more on the

Mercury - What is its role in Autism and Alzheimer's Disease?
Dr. Boyd Haley, Ph.D., a biochemist at the University of Kentucky, is probably
one of the world's top experts on mercury toxicity. Hear this fascinating
review of the irrefutable evidence that links mercury toxicity to Autism
and Alzheimer's disease. The video is from a presentation in March of 2003.

The
U.S. Food and Drug Administration has asserted for years that mercury in
dental fillings is harmless, but has changed its position following a class-action
lawsuit settlement this month. The debate has waged for almost 150 years
over the safety of amalgam -- a material comprised half of mercury and
half of other metals such as silver, tin and copper -- which has been the
conventional means of filling cavities. It has been the FDA's published
opinion that federal agencies "have found no scientific studies that demonstrate
dental amalgam harms children or adults." But following the June 2 settlement
of the lawsuit, which was filed on behalf of consumer advocate groups and
some dentists, the agency's Web site now reads: "Dental amalgams contain
mercury, which may have neurotoxic effects on the nervous systems of developing
children and fetuses." The news is vindication to Dr Jerry Simon and his
group at Dental Care of Stamford who stopped using amalgam fillings more
than 20 years ago because of the controversy surrounding the material.

Did you realise that your dentist can have as much of an impact on your
overall health as your doctor? Chances are, your answer to this is no.
But it's the truth. A truth that, unfortunately, is not being heard. Mainstream
physicians and dentists refuse to open their eyes to the connection between
dentistry and medicine. While I've managed to help hundreds of patients
eliminate their sickening symptoms and disease, the establishment continues
to ignore the fact that what goes on in your mouth can have a great impact

Be
VERY Careful When Replacing Missing Teeth A dental implant
is one option for replacing missing or badly diseased teeth. It is composed
of an artificial root that looks like a post or screw and is covered with
a dental crown. Treatment involves the surgical placement of the implant
into the jawbone, where it is allowed to fuse to the bone in a process
called “osseointegration.” Once healed, the implant acts as an anchor for
an artificial replacement tooth, or crown. The crown is made to blend in
with your other teeth and is permanently attached to the implant. A typical
dental implant is made of pure titanium and/or a titanium alloy. In fact,
titanium alloys are widely used in both medicine and dentistry, for dental
implants, pacemakers, stents, orthodontal brackets, and orthopedic implants
(e.g., hip, shoulder, knee, or elbow). Not only is titanium strong, but
many consider it biocompatible: it forms an oxide layer when exposed to
air, and this purportedly results in reduced corrosion and superior osseointegration.
So why should you reject the standard titanium metal implant? more...
Excerpt
from "The Perfect Prescription For Your Teeth"
booklet:
"Fluoride detaches the gum tissue, forming
POCKETS from 1 to 8 mm deep. Dr. Judd states, “Receding gum surgery will
end when the GUM POCKETS cease. The very mention of the procedure, which
involves transferring flesh from the roof of the mouth to the excised area
of the gums, is a heinous and useless procedure which ought to pass into
oblivion. Fluoride is a nerve poison. FLUORIDE CAUSES CAVITIES. There
is not the slightest doubt. Dr. Judd states, “TO AVOID FLUORIDE IS
TO PREVENT MORE THAN 114 AILMENTS.. These 114 MEDICAL SIDE EFFECTS extend
all the way from cancer down to headaches CAUSED BY 1 PPM FLUORIDE IN THE
WATER. Thirteen of these side effects are proved by a double blind study
on 60 patients by 12 physicians, 1 pharmacist and 1 attorney.”
Spokesmen
for national groups are beginning to notice AN ALARMING RISE IN CAVITIES
AMONG CHILDREN AND TEENS. Some dentists recommend DENTAL SEALANTS, especially
for older teens not previously considered candidates for the treatment.
But if sealants are now ordered, AREN’T DENTISTS ADMITTING NO CONFIDENCE
IN THE ABILITY OF FLUORIDE TO PREVENT CAVITIES??? Says Dr. Judd, “REMOVAL
OF FLUORIDE FROM DRINKING WATER, PASTES OR GELS SAVES THE ENZYME ADENOSINE
DIPHOSPHATASE so it can deliver phosphate to calcium at the tooth surface,
RESULTING IN A BEAUTIFUL, SEMI-FLEXIBLE ENAMEL.” And for those that care
about wrinkles and such...Fluoride disrupts the connective tissue,
causing excessive cross-linking, cysts, and premature aging of the skin!
Clearly, getting rid of fluoride is the first important step to take care
of your teeth and other problems in the body.
Dr Robert Verkerk - “Fluorides are extremely reactive
molecules which have been shown to cause considerable harm in biological
systems. They continue to be used by health authorities for a specific
medicinal purpose, namely the treatment and prevention of dental caries,
yet they have never been subjected to the full risk/benefit analysis which
is required in order to bring other drugs to the market. Drinking water
medicated with fluoride clearly amounts to government-sponsored use of
an unlicenced drug. It is staggering that international bodies such as
the United Nations’ Codex Alimentarius Commission could have overruled
the substantial scientific concerns about fluoride in infant formula raised
by several countries in November’s Codex meeting in Chiang Mai, Thailand
and that babies, the most vulnerable members of our society, are made the
innocent victims” Dr Robert

"You
can now have good teeth without fillings, root canals, crowns and
sealants, gum operations and other expensive dental procedures. I now place
in everyone's hand the complete answer to tooth cavities. Following this
procedure there will not be one more cavity, one more gingivitis case,
or one more fluorosed, brittle, cracked tooth in the world. Bad teeth in
Ireland, Canada, the USA, Britain, Australia and New Zealand will now be
curbed. The 55-year fight with fluoride promoters (dentists) in these countries
is over since research now establishes for certain that
fluoride makes the teeth WORSE and not better (refs 1,2,3). My book,
Good Teeth, Birth to Death lays out in no uncertain terms all the detail
to achieve my claims. I have talked to thousands of people about their
teeth, many of whom have perfect teeth. In all those cases of perfect teeth,
the practice of rinsing while eating has been the reason, and not fluoride.
I am convinced that perfect teeth have little or nothing to do with genetics."

German
scientists say amalgam reduces fertility In a cell culture experiment, mercury affected hormone production at
low concentrations. A link has been found between mercury and hormone disturbances,
immune disturbances, recurrent fungal infections, hair loss and allergies.
The differences are large. Allergies and hair loss are 2-3 times as common
in the high- mercury group. These recent results confirm earlier findings
from Heidelberg on mercury and fertility. According to the researchers,
mercury exposure leads to hormone and immune disturbances that can reduce
fertility. In a cell culture experiment at the Tuebingen University gynecological
clinic, mercury affected hormone production at
low concentrations. The concentrations were so low that cell vitality was
otherwise almost unaffected.
Neurological
and Immune Reactive Conditions Affecting Kids The mercury connection to neurological pervasive developmental disorders
(autism, schizophrenia, dyslexia, ADD, childhood depression, learning disabilities,
OCD, etc.) and developmental immune conditions(eczema, asthma, and allergies)
The incidence of neurotoxic, allergic, and immune reactive conditions
such as autism, schizophrenia, ADD, dyslexia, allergies, asthma, eczema,
psoriasis, childhood diabetes, etc. have been increasing rapidly in recent
years. A recent report by the National Research Council found that 50%
of all pregnancies in the U.S. are now resulting in prenatal or postnatal
mortality, significant birth defects, developmental disabilities or otherwise
chronically unhealthy babies. There has been a similar sharp increase in
developmental disabilities in Canadian children over the last 2 decades,
including learning disabilities and behavioral problems, asthma and allergies,
and childhood cancer. Exposure to toxic chemicals or environmental factors
appear to be a factor in as much as 28 percent of the 4 million U.S. children
born each year , with 1 in 6 having one of the neurological conditions
previously listed. The U.S. Dept. Of Education indicates that over 5 million
children attending school have neurological related disabilities reported
by state agencies, other than ADD. According to the American Academy of
Pediatrics between 4 to 12 % of all school age children are affected by
ADHD and a similar number have some degree of dyslexia. Studies indicate
that over 60,000 children are born each year with neurodevelopmental impairments
due to prenatal exposure to methyl mercury and two other sources of mercury
exposure appear more common and at higher levels than this, mercury
from vaccines and amalgam dental fillings. -
Mercury in vaccines - One hundred years ago, children received
1 vaccine (the smallpox vaccine). Forty years ago, children received 5
vaccines routinely (diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, polio, and smallpox
vaccines) and as many as 8 shots by 2 years of age. Children now receive
52 vaccines, in the form of 15 shots, by the time they are 6 months of
age if they receive all the recommend shots, including the Prevnar pediatric
pneumonia shot. Vaccines contain THIMERSOL (mercury), MSG, aluminum, formaldehyde,
sucrose and phenoxyethanol, which is antifreeze, among many other things.
Thimerosal, a vaccine ingredient, is nearly 50% mercury. Mercury is a NEUROTOXIN.
EPA 'safe' levels are: .1 microgram per 1.0 kilogram of body weight per
day. Vaccines contain 12.5 to 25.0 micrograms of mercury, and a 'well baby'
visit can see your child have between 50 and 62.5 mcgs of MERCURY injected
into their bloodstream. The CDC (US) has found a trend linking autism
to mercury laden vaccines. Thimerosal is a registered pesticide with the
Department of Pesticide Registration of the Environmental Protection Agency.

Detoxification is a normal body process of eliminating or neutralizing
toxins through the colon, liver, kidneys, lungs, lymph and skin.
Naturopaths
who hold that illness can be healed by the natural processes of the body
are the most vigorous supporters of detoxification, since they believe
that the primary cause of disease is the accumulation of uneliminated wastes.
When the body's natural cleansing systems are no longer up to the task,
proponents of detoxification say everyone should detoxify at some point.
Detoxification is a normal body process of eliminating
or neutralizing toxins through the colon, liver, kidneys, lungs, lymph
and skin.
Dr. Ted H Spence, DDS, ND, PhD/DSc, MPH - "Detoxification comes
in many forms and refers to many different programs
that cleanse the body of toxins. Today, our environment is toxic and the
foods we eat, even the air we breathe and the water we drink is laden with
chemicals foreign to our system. Therefore, everyone is undergoing some
type of detoxification to maintain life and health. Although basic detoxification
begins with diet, detox programs may include nutritional fortification
for the liver, lungs, kidneys, bowels and blood. Detoxification for
the body may refer to the cleansing of the bowels, kidneys, lungs, the
liver or the blood, since these are the organs involved in detoxification
of chemicals and toxins from the body. The liver acts as an in-line filter
for the removal of foreign substances and wastes from the blood. The kidneys
filter wastes from the blood into the urine, while the lungs remove volatile
gases as we breathe."
Transfer Factor Toothpaste offers the immune benefits of Transfer
Factor and other ingredients, including Coenzyme Q-10 and lactoferrin,
to promote healthy teeth and gums. Transfer factors are tiny messenger
molecules that transfer immunity information from one entity to another,
such as between a mother and her breastfeeding infant.
• Research indicates that
the health of your mouth can influence the health of other body systems.
Transfer Factor helps promote the health of your teeth and mouth through
superior immune system support.
• Independent laboratory
studies show that 4Life Transfer Factor E-XF boosts immune system effectiveness
by raising Natural Killer cell function an impressive 283 percent. Natural
Killer cells are on the front lines of your immune system.
• The extraction processes
for transfer factors from colostrum and egg sources are protected by US
patents 6,468,534 (egg yolks) and 6,866,868 (exclusive manufacturing techniques),
with other patents pending.
• Xylitol is an all-natural
sweetener with antibacterial qualities that helps inhibit the bacteria
most closely associated with plaque and tooth decay.
Your immune system is your bodyguard. It works both pro-actively and
protectively to shield you from anything in your world that threatens your
life and limb. The immune system is not responsive to drugs for healing.
By rebuilding immunity, health is naturally restored and disease disappears.
If health and immunity are thereafter conscientiously maintained, the individual
is no longer vulnerable to disease. Rebuilding

Mercury Detoxification
Dr. Vinograd D.D.S.
N.M.D. - "I was 35 years old and feeling like 80. I did not understand
where all the symptoms I was experiencing came from - The brain fog, the
insomnia, the digestive problems, the tired feeling that accompanied me
every day, the irritability and bad breath. I could still remember feeling
so much more healthy when I was younger, so vibrant and full of good quality
energy. At first, I attributed feeling unhealthy to the aging process.
And when I finally realized that what I was feeling was not normal aging.
I felt like I had hit a dead end.
My blood tests did not show any abnormalities other than a high Candida
count, but when I researched the various approaches to eradicate Candida,
I was surprised to find that the fungus has a direct relationship with
heavy metal toxicity. Apparently, our bodies 'farm' the Candida to have
them help absorb some of the toxicity created in our bodies from the heavy
metals. I then ran some test to uncover the possibility of being burdened
by other heavy metals. After Urine Toxic Elements and Fecal Metals tests
(at Doctor's Data Medical Laboratory), Hair Analysis (at Great Smokies
Diagnostic Laboratory), and a Syncrometer Test of my saliva samples, what
I found was shocking.
All tests revealed abnormal levels of various metals; including arsenic,
nickel and lead (I suppose that although labeled abnormal they are quite
common). However, it was my mercury levels that were off the charts, and
appeared consistently in every test. Where was this mercury coming from?
We know now that certain fish have been identified as carrying unusually
high levels of mercury (the government's Environmental Protection Agency
now carries strict warnings) As a dentist, I suspected the mercury did
not solely come from the fish. As most dentists, I had been indoctrinated
to believe that amalgam (silver) fillings, were perfectly safe.
Could my use of amalgams, both in my patient's mouth and on my own be
a source of mercury toxicity? As it turns out, not only do I believe that
to be the case, but dentists are now being compelled by law to disclose
to their patients the potential dangers of amalgam use. I am happy to be
able to report that I am now 51 years old and feel like 20. I have spent
the bulk of my time developing a protocol to help patients detoxify (perhaps
driven by some guilt over the many years I used amalgams on my patients).
I have explored therapies with intravenous chelating agents (DMSA, EDTA,
DMPS), finding them expensive and very harsh on the body. I have looked
into sublingual herbal and homeopathic preparation, finding some of them
somewhat useful, but quite expensive (one such preparation was retailing
for $150.00 for one ounce bottle, needing several bottles).
"A few years ago, I was diagnosed with heavy metal and chemical poisoning.
Among the many toxic substances in my body, mercury from the fillings in
my teeth was a major culprit. Having neither health insurance nor
the money to pay for these expensive treatments, I began searching for
alternative ways to eliminate these poisons--a major cause of immune system
breakdown--and thus, the source of various diseases. Eventually, my search
led me to a book, Using Energy to Heal, by Wendell Hoffman. Through his
own research, Hoffman found that a special bentonite (a very fine volcanic
clay) used in a bath can actually draw out toxic chemicals through the
pores of the skin. After many experiments, he concluded that optimum
results are obtained by immersing oneself in a tub of very warm water mixed
with a special bentonite clay for exactly 20 minutes!"

F. Batmanghelidj, M.D.
- "Every function inside the body is regulated by and depends on water.
Water must be available to carry vital elements, oxygen, hormones, and
chemical messengers to all parts of the body. Without sufficient water
to wet all parts equally, some more remote parts of the body will not receive
the vital elements that water supplies. Water is also needed to carry toxic
waste away from the cells. In fact, there are at least 50 reasons why the
body needs sufficient water on a regular, everyday basis. Without sufficient
water to constantly wet all parts, your body's drought-management system
kicks into action. The histamine-directed chemical messenger systems are
activated to arrange a new, lower quota of water for the drought-stricken
areas. When histamine and its subordinate "drought managers" come across
pain-sensing nerves, they cause pain. This is what I discovered in my research
that I mentioned earlier."

the toxic effects of chlorine poisoning from inhaling vapors from
an over-chlorinated swimming pool. This had resulted in many severe
health challenges including extreme chronic fatigue and breathing difficulty
that kept her housebound and dependent on oxyn. Even minimal exertion led
to extreme shortness of breath. After just three days of drinking glyconutrients,
she reported that all of her symptoms improved dramatically and that she
was able to leave her house without oxygen and work in her garden, which
she had not been able to do in years." The sugars found on all Glyconutrients
(saccharides) also address the workings of the brain and nervous system

Chemicals and Toxins Are The Primary
Cause of Illness, Disease and Obesity Substances that are toxic to our bodies come at us from all directions:
the air we breathe, the food we eat, the water we drink, the cleaning products
we use, and the metabolic waste produced inside us. Toxins build-up in
the body contribute to premature aging and chronic and degenerative diseases.
Dr. Steve Nugent, the past president of the American Naturopathic Medical
Association, reported recently that "in the typical American home there
are more toxins inside the home than outside the home! Your cells actually
contain over 400 new toxins that didn't even exist 45 years ago and we
are losing the battle against toxins!" It's a fact. There are increasing
amounts of toxins and chemical agents in the water we drink, the food we
eat and the air we breathe - they all contribute to the breakdown in cellular
communication and disease. more
THE MERCURY
CONNECTION "It didn't take long for me to find dozens of
sources that implied mercury poisoning was involved in ALS and MS, as well
as many other "diseases", and that the most common source of mercury is
from "silver" dental fillings. I was shocked that I had never heard of
this before, but would later learn that by design, 95% of the population
is unaware of this fact. I found articles and books that claimed many recoveries
from MS after the SAFE removal of dental fillings. I even found one in
a medical journal entitled "RECOVERY FROM AMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS
AND FROM ALERGIES FOLLOWING THE REMOVAL OF DENTAL AMALGAM FILLINGS" published
in The Journal of Risk and Safety in Medicine. The report documented the
case of an unnamed woman in Sweden, who was diagnosed with ALS and was
unable to walk. She fully recovered after just five months of removing
her mercury fillings, and supplementing with selenium [Se] and vitamin

to safely remove mercury from your body and brain using alpha lipoic acid,
an over-the-counter antioxidant. The most important things to remember
about chelating with lipoic acid are to (1) go slowly and (2) to take the
doses (25 mg to 120 mg according to tolerance) every 3 to 4 hours
around the clock. Dr. Cutler explains how this method keeps the blood
levels of lipoic acid stable in order to move the Hg from the brain and
eliminate it, not merely redistribute it to other places.
Most of the neurological symptoms I've suffered from
are gone now. They don't come and go; they are just gone. The rapid
heart beat stopped, along with the numbness and tingling of the extremities,
and the tremor and twitches in my head. My blood pressure has come
up from 70/40 to 120/80 - perfectly normal. My cholesterol has dropped
from 305 to 240. My facial color is no longer ghastly white, but
rather a normal and natural color. H-Pylori titers (a bacteria associated
with peptic ulcers and cancer) have gone from 6 plus to 1.37 without medication.
I'm thrilled I found a way to improve these stubborn
health problems that refused to budge with any other means. Believe
me, I had tried everything. If you want to get well from CFIDS, candida,
MS, and other neurological problems please don't overlook this book, Amalgam
Illness: Diagnosis and Treatment. Then follow the directions for how to
get well safely!"an amazon.com reviewer

-- Higher Mercury Levels in Fish Are Slowly Killing You - Recent studies

Routine consumption of fish oil is another highly

There are now a group of dentists around the country who are openly
advocating the extraction of every root canaled tooth on the basis of the
research done by Dr. Price. This is certainly a radical approach to solving
a problem that appears to be limited to only about 10% of the total number
of root canal treatments done. Furthermore, it certainly does not take
into consideration the use of calcium oxide as a root canal medication
in the treatment of infected root canals. Much of the current confusion
in the minds of the public about the efficacy of root canal therapy has
been precipitated by the book "Root Canal Cover Ups" written by George
Meinig, D.D.S., past president of the American Association of Endodontists.
Dr. Meinig extensively cites the work of Dr. Price and concludes that there
is a serious problem with root canal therapy and teeth that have had root
canal treatment. This of course, is a major break with his own previous
training and the policies of both the American Association of Endodontists.
and the American Dental Association. Patients going to an "establishment"
endodontist or dentist who does not subscribe to the focal infection theory
are given a much different picture on the efficacy of root canal treatment.
Here again, establishment protocols for endodontic treatment rely heavily
on the use of some very toxic chemicals and cements. And although there
is a 90% success rate for most endodontic procedures, it is still a scientific
fact that using the existing endodontic materials and techniques, there
is no way to totally seal the apex of the tooth and the dentinal tubules.
Using the word "existing" may be a misnomer because there is an existing
product called "Biocalex" that is offering new hope in resolving difficult
endodontic problems. learn more
" The last time I went to
a dentist, way too long ago, like 2.5+ years, I had mainly 4's, a lot of
5's, and several 6's and even a few 7's in my gum readings. Anyone who's
gone through this will appreciate the numbers--it's basically about how
deeply detached from the teeth the gums are, how far up or down the tooth
is beyond the visible gum line before there's a healthy connection. My
dentist warned that I had advancing gingivitis and held out no hope that
I might reverse the damage, but that proper care could slow or maybe even
arrest the deterioration. This time, recently, I was expecting the worst--haven't
been to a dentist after all!--but my numbers were mostly 3's and a bunch
of 4's, maybe one 5 as I recall, and no 6's and 7's. This was a new dentist
but she had no concern about my gums. I don't use special toothpaste for
gum health. (Thanks, Tiffany, I'll do that with Sangre de Drago!) I don't
floss that much, though I like to pick around a lot with toothpicks. But
I was already doing that before. The only difference is so many more years
of the Amazon herbs, including lots of Recovazon
liquid and Sangre
de Drago, every single day without fail. I don't know how else to account
for it. So at the very least, this is a happy coincidence, and I'm sure
not letting up on those herbs! " Saniel Bonder, spiritual teacher &

"I have been struggling with
gingivitis for over a year now. At one point I had to go on two rounds
of strong antibiotics to get rid of it. My gums have receded to the
point where I couldsee the roots of my teeth in several areas. The
gingivitis recently came back again. I had just started taking Glyconutrients
so I started doing mouth rinses with it several times a day and the gingivitis
is now all gone. I did not use any antibiotics and no other natural healing

Another study showing a possible link between mercury exposure and some
forms of non familial or sporadic Alzheimer's Disease has recently been
published. This study by was done by a group of Swiss researchers and published
in the Journal of Neurochemistry, a prestigious peer reviewed, neuroscience
journal. The Swiss researchers showed that exposure of neuroblastoma cells
in culture to extremely low levels (180 nanomolar or 180 x 10-9 molar)
of mercuric cation (Hg2+) produces all the classical cellular biochemical
lesions found in the Alzheimer's Diseased brain.
Inquiry into vaccine safety is exploding like never before, even in
the popular press. Research coming from dozens of mainstream medical studies
can no longer be easily suppressed, as it has been in the past, especially
with the prevalence of online information exchange. Last September, some
2,000 people, mostly MDs, assembled at the Town and Country resort in San
Diego to hear the latest research on autism. Following the April 2000 Congressional
hearings on autism and vaccines, this epidemic can no longer be ignored.
The figure of one autistic infant for every 150 is now widely documented.
Dr. Stephanie Cave presented enlightening data on mercury toxicity, drawn
largely from the brilliant work of Sallie Bernard. Dr. Cave explained how:
By age two, American children have received 237 micrograms of mercury through
vaccines alone, which far exceeds current EPA "safe" levels of .1 mcg/kg.
per day. That's one-tenth of a microgram, not one microgram.
A few years ago, Bernard and her associates began to notice a striking
similarity between the symptoms of autism and the symptoms of mercury poisoning.
The more research she did, the more it seemed that these two diseases were
virtually identical. Autism and mercury poisoning damage the: brain/nerve
cells; eyes; immune system; gastrointestinal system; muscle control; and

Dentist Huggins has led the fight to alert the public and health professionals
to the dangers of using mercury in the amalgams used to fill teeth. Here
he describes his battle with the American Dental Association and the results
of his research studies. After explaining mercury toxicity, he describes
such conditions as neurological and immunological diseases that can result
from this toxicity. His discussion also includes the diagnosis of mercury
toxicity and the pros and cons of having mercury amalgam fillings removed.
He indicates that there are often no definitive answers in the diagnostic
process and that the final proof of mercury toxicity is whether the patient
feels better when mercury fillings are removed. A useful if very detailed
look at a continuing health controversy. Karen Graves
"Mercury has been a known poison for centuries. Toxic levels of mercury
can cause or exacerbate autoimmune diseases, infections, unexplained chronic
fatigue, depression, nerve impairment, memory problems, decreased mental
clarity, bowel disorders, and many other problems that are seemingly unrelated.
With laboratory testing and a thorough history and physical examination,
experienced health care professionals can detect harmful mercury levels
and formulate a plan of detoxification. With special
laboratory tests, experienced health care professionals can estimate the
mercury load within the body by how much is being excreted in the urine".

prevention and detox programs Two amalgam fillings over looked in my teeth! by YM, Ibaragi City, Japan, 28 years old. Feb.'96
Now that I am finally free from the itching that almost drove me crazy,
my everyday life is cheerful, joyous, and comfortable. I am filled with
happiness and gratitude. But, to be truly honest, I still feel vexed and
angry about what happened to me.
Since I was a child, my skin was sensitive and I was prone to dry skin
and infections especially around the elbows and the knees. It was nothing
very serious and I was living a normal life just like others did. However,
in the winter when I was 19, I all of a sudden started to itch all over
my body. It was really abrupt. I literally scratch-ed myself from head
to toe and to the extent that there was no spot left unscratched. My skin
was smeared with blood. My condition seemed hopeless. I had no idea that
amalgam, used in my dental treatment when I was 17 years old, was the cause
of my condition.
Stereoid treatment I started to use steroid ointment prescribed by a University Hospital
near my home. Back then the media had just started reporting on the side-effects
of steroids. I was a bit concerned, but I concluded that the steroid ointment
must be safe enough since it had been prescribed for me at the University
Hospital. I also thought that, since I would soon be cured, I wouldn't
have to use the ointment for very long. Although I felt that applying the
ointment was not such a good idea, I talked myself into doing it anyway
and applied it all over my body. I realized that this was a really powerflil
cure since a doctor told me -"Never apply the ointment on your face".
For the next eight years I kept going back to the hospital to receive
more of the steroid ointment as soon as I ran out of it. During that period
I graduated from junior college, got a job, got married and gave birth
to a child. This is a period of my life during which I was pickled in steroids.
I had no pain since the steroid was so powerful and therefore I did not
try to find the cause of my eczema nor did I try to improve my lifestyle.
In my naive belief l thought that as long as I had the ointment I was OK
Allergic to dental amalgam Shortly after I gave birth to my daughter, the magic ointment didn't
seem to be as effective as before, no matter what amount I used. Then my
neighbour introduced me to Dr. Kohdera and my painful struggle with atopic
dermatitis started. Dr Kohdera was very different from the other doctors
I knew. He was really enthusiastic, and told me:-"If you find the cause
of your problem, it will surely be cured." Hearing this, I made up my mind
to follow him no matter what. Back then my skin was in the worst possible
condition, so crumbled up and raw that a patch test was impossible. The
result of a blood test (Lymphocyte Proliferation Test) showed that I was
highly allergic to dental amalgam. I was also highly allergic to mites,
pollen, metal and some food groups. I was immediately referred to the Osaka
University Hospital to have my dental fillings removed and I waited to
see the result. At the same time, I switched my old bed linen to a mite
allergen-free bed linen-set by Yamasei as a measure to ward off mites.
I also got rid of old carpets and a couch made of fabric. I switched from
a fan heater using petroleum to an electric fan heater since the former
polluted the air in the house. Thinking about how costly having atopic
eczema could be, I felt a bit dejected.
Withdrawal syndrome Then the steroid withdrawal syndrome began. It was beyond my imagination.
My skin was crumbled just like the bottom of a dried up dam. There seemed
to be no liquid or oil left in my skin and it was terrible. Even a small
amount of perspiration caused itching. After taking a batch it itched again.
when I went to bed I couldn't sleep due to the unbearable itching. It itched
around the clock. It was impossible for me to forget about the itching
even for a short while. I was getting more and more tired. It took almost
all of my energy just to take care of myself, and it was too much to take
care of my husband and child also. I had to squeeze the last bit of my
energy just to give my child a bath at night. I was exhausted all the time
and irritated. Our family couldn't live a normal life because of me. I
felt most vexed when I found out that my left eye had cataract seven months
after I stopped using the steroid. Now I can see objects at a distance
after surgery but not things close to me. I tell myself that this has to
be my fate.
I had the amalgam fillings removed from my teeth, was careful about
mites and what to eat, used alkali ion water, was careful about cleaning
the house, looked at every aspect of daily life in connection with atopic
dermatitis, hoping that I would be cured. I was slowly getting better but
couldn't quite forget about itching and every day was painful. Sometimes
I thought that ones constitution wouldn't change so easily, no matter how
hard one tried. when I realized that a lot of people were suffering from
atopic dermatitis I couldn't think positively. There were days when I felt
that I didn't want to live any more and that my body would disappear.
Quick recovery Then one day I had a terrible toothache. One year and eight months
prior to this, I had my amalgam filling removed to get rid of the cause
of the atopic dermatitis, but the teeth were left unfilled since there
was no dental material fit to use (in order to prevent allergic symptoms),
and those teeth developed cavities! I went back to the same dentist who
had removed the amalgam filling and had an Xray of all my teeth. Then,
two amalgam fillings were discovered in my mouth that had been believed
to be amalgam free! Since they were my wisdom teeth, I had them extracted.
But the discovery was shocking. Two months after the extraction, my skin
became amazingly smooth. It was as though the bad substance was draining
from my body. The pain that had haunted me day and night was suddenly lifted
from me and I could sleep like a baby and get up feeling fine. It was such
a quick recovery that I wondered if I really did have atopic derinatitis
after all. The better I got the more I realized that the biggest cause,
after all, was the two amalgam fillings forgotten in my teeth. As I realized
this, I wanted an apology from my dentist, who overlooked those amalgam
fillings.
It was no use regretting what had happened. I had to accept it. During
those years filled with pain I fought face to face with my atopic eczema.
With support from those around me, including Dr Kohdera and my family,
I have learned a lot. I have learned that our bodies react even to such
tiny dental fillings, and that the environment of one's house and the earth
are really crucial to our health. Now I think those two years were not
meaningless.
I am really happy that I met Dr Kohdera*, who gave me constant support
regardless of my condition. My gratitude towards him cannot be expressed
by mere words such as "thank you". I am truly, truly grateful. Now that
I am healthy, my husband and I are thinking about having a second baby.
I hope the day will come when all people who suffer from atopic derinatitits
will recover just like I did and have smiles and laughter.

to promote the works of Dr. Robert O. Nara, who fought a long battle with
the American Dental Association and others in his profession over his views
on promoting 'preventive' dentistry in the face of traditional 'restorative'
dentistry. According to OraMedia's Director and site Editor, Tom Cornwell,
"The cause and cure of periodontal (gum) disease was discovered well over
100 years ago. The BIG money, however, is in treating the 'symptoms' of
the disease, and not the 'prevention' of it. The focus at OraMedia is teaching
people to understand what causes the disease, and how to very easily control
it."
"This should be good news
to health-conscious people, and to parents especially," he adds. "In a
business where, just 'dentures' alone is a $30 BILLION a year industry,
I think there's probably a little room for 'preventive dentistry' for those
willing to take on the responsibility for their own teeth. It is estimated
that 98% of ALL Americans suffer from some stage of periodontal disease."

information at the Oramedia site is free for the reading, downloading and

The transport of vitamin B12 to the brain can be disturbed or interrupted
by heavy metals such as inorganic mercury, which affects the blood-brain
barrier by causing leakage and hampering the active transport of nutrients.
Exposure to laughing gas (N2O), commonly given to women in labour, causes
similar B12 deficiencies in the brain of the infant, and sometimes in mothers
with low B12 levels (and the anaesthetist). When used as a sedative in
connection with an operation, the gas can cause irreparable damage in an
individual with B12 deficiency.
The administration of relatively high doses of vitamin B12, in the form
of methylcobalamin, in the treatment of fibromyalgia, diabetics,
Multiple Sclerosis and amalgam-related disorders has been gradually
increasing in Sweden since the end of the 80's. The results are remarkable.
Some of the disorders that may be preventable or treatable with methylcobalamin,
include chronic fatigue syndrome, Parkinson's disease, peripheral neuropathies,
Alzheimer's disease, muscular dystrophy and neurological aging.
02-01-1999 Japanese scientists have identified a form of vitamin B12
that protects against neurological disease and aging by a unique mechanism
that differs from current therapies. Some of the disorders that may be
preventable or treatable with this natural vitamin therapy, called methylcobalamin,
include chronic fatigue syndrome, Parkinson's disease, peripheral neuropathies,
Alzheimer's disease, muscular dystrophy and neurological aging. Americans
have immediate access to this unique and new form of vitamin B12, and,
unlike prescription drugs, it costs very little and is free of side effects.
Vitamin B12 is a general label for a group of essential biological compounds
knows as cobalamins. The cobalamins are structurally related to hemoglobin
in the blood, and a deficiency of vitamin B12 can cause anemia. The primary
concern of conventional doctors is to maintain adequate cobalamin status
to protect against anemia.
The most common form of vitamin B12 is called cyanocobalamin. However,
over the last ten years, a number of central and peripheral neurological
diseases have been linked to a deficiency of a very specific cobalamin,
the methylcobalamin form, that is required to protect against neurological
diseases and aging. The liver converts a small amount of cyanocobalamin
into methylcobalamin within the body, but larger amounts of methylcobalamin
are necessary to correct neurological defects and protect against aging.
Published studies show that high doses of methylcobalamin are needed
to regenerate neurons as well as the myelin sheath that protects nerve
axons and peripheral nerves.
Alpha-lipoic
acid has been used for detoxification of heavy metal poisoning
in Europe. This is taking advantage of its ability as a chelator instead
of its antioxidant function, but there is fairly decent evidence showing
its beneficial effects against cadmium and mercury poisoning." Dr.

Many people today suffer from what is often broadly referred to as
"heavy
metal toxicity." The most common source of toxicity is mercury
from dental fillings. When the so-called "silver" fillings are put
in the teeth, they are roughly 49-53% mercury. In other words, the
filling is an amalgam that contains some silver as well as what is for
some people a lethal amount of mercury. To determine the extent of
possible mercury poisoning, studies were conducted on sheep. The
fillings were removed after six months and found to contain only about
a fifth of the mercury that was present when the fillings were first put
into the teeth. The rest of the mercury had been leeched into the
system and was found in significant concentrations in the brain and small
intestines, though the liver and kidneys and lungs were also impacted by
the mercury.
In environmentally conscious dentistry, mercury is disposed of as a
hazardous waste. In some countries, such as Germany and Sweden, the
governments are paying for mercury removal; however, in the United States,
the American Dental Association, Federal Government, and suppliers of amalgam
dental materials insist that mercury is safe and that it poses no health
risks . . . except, it seems, for Duluth, Minnesota, where mercury amalgams
are prohibited.
Basically, insistence on the safety of amalgams is not just nonsense,
but criminally irresponsible. For many people, mercury is a very significant
cause of ill health. Symptoms range from muscle spasms to severe
neurological problems such as paralysis and memory loss. For years,
many people have been going through the quite expensive procedure of having
amalgam fillings replaced with more stable and less toxic dental materials
and following this ordeal with various types of also expensive chelation
using intravenous vitamins and sometimes other substances.
Cilantro
Quite accidentally, a researcher named Dr. Yoshiaki Omura discovered that
some patients were excreting more toxic metals after consuming a Chinese

Mercury
From Amalgam Dental Fillings Major Factor in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome? Research including over 1000 peer-reviewed or government studies has
been accumulated from the medical literature, documenting the mechanism
by which mercury causes or is a major factor in over 40 chronic health
conditions. Also accumulated are the clinical results of over 60,000 cases
of amalgamreplacement as followed and documented by doctors
with evidence of cure or significant improvement in these chronic conditions:
Autoimmune problems such as arthritis, MS, Lou Gehrig's Disease(ALS), Parkinson's/
muscle tremor, Alzheimer's, muscular and joint pain /fibromyalgia, chron's
disease, lupus, scleroderma, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome(CFS), endometriosis

"The hardest part of her return to health was the removal of 22 dental
amalgam fillings"
Moore suffered from lupus for 14 years. After taking control of her
health care, though, and drawing on alternative therapies (usually called
"complementary" therapies), she has "recovered." Books by lupus patients
aren't unusual, but hers is the first to go into complementary medicine
in detail. Nutrition and dietary supplements played major roles, Moore
says, and naturopathy, traditional Chinese medicine, and mind-body medicine
were in the mix, too. The hardest part of her return to health was the
removal of 22 dental amalgam fillings, which gave new meaning to the trendy
saw "No pain, no gain" but produced increasingly noticeable improvement.
Lupus is an autoimmune disease in which the body’s own immune system
attacks the skin, blood vessels, joints, and other tissues of the body.
It is believed that there may be a virus that causes the development of
antibodies, which then attacks good body tissues. Visual symptoms may include
a butterfly shaped rash on the checks or the nose or in other locations
on the body. Woman make up 90% of the people with Lupus and it is even
more prevalent in Asian women.
"In 2004 I began to experience
a lot of joint swelling in my hands, shoulders, knees and ankles. That
pain would simply jump around in my body without warning and I kept going
to the doctor who concluded I had either strained a muscle or had a torn
rotator cup. Eventually after CATS and MRIs showed no problems the doctor
gave me a blood test and when it came back she said that I had Lupus.
I was prescribed a series of medications that made me very ill. After researching
more about lupus it occurred to me that I needed to find a doctor that
specialized in autoimmune deficiencies. I found a doctor who specialized
in autoimmune diseases and after a series of blood test this doctor told
me I had RA, Rheumatoid Arthritis. She said that my RA factors were over
200 and started me on a methotrexate, and other RA combo drugs including,
prednisone, cortisone shots and painkillers. The side effects of the medications
were at times unbearable.
A friend of mine who at one
time had stage four pancreatic cancer introduced me to Marine
Phytoplankton and suggested that I talk to a friend of hers for
more information. It was suggested that I began with 1 1/2 oz of Marine
Phytoplankton a day and after 30 days I should see some change in my body.
After being on so many over the counter drugs and prescribed medications
I was a bit reluctant but decided to try it 3 days after purchasing it.
After all, I really had nothing to lose. Within the first half hour of
taking the Marine Phytoplankton I felt. The swelling had left my hands,
completely (this is where the RA had settled). Each day I continued to
take 1 1/2 oz of the Marine Phytoplankton and I have not looked back.
It has only been 30 days
and I have not taken any medications for arthritis. I have been pain free
and I have not had any joint swelling. This is truly a miracle for me and
it is what I have been looking for. I am recommending it to everyone I
know that has RA. I believe that Marine Phytoplankton is the all-natural
product that is healing my body from the inside out. You must give it a
try." T. W.
Dr. Jerry Tennant, M.D. says that marine
phytoplankton contains almost everything one needs to sustain life
and to restore health by providing the raw materials to make new cells
that function normally. Marine phytoplankton has been called "the most
nutritionally dense foods on the planet". Containing a wide range
of trace elements, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, enzymes
and cellular materials, marine phytoplankton promotes and maintains optimum
health by boosting and supporting all systems within the body.
Its antioxidants and unique polysaccharides can halt the genetic mutations
that can lead to cancer. Both high levels of saccharides and adaptogens
increase energy and stamina by improving our ability to consume and use
oxygen. Adaptogens also improve cardiovascular health by strengthening
the heart and circulation. more about marine phytoplankton's

Raising
Public Awareness Most modern maladies are
caused by prolonged exposure to a combination of negative lifestyles and
toxic environmental factors, including junk food and malnutrition, pesticides,
antibiotics, microwaves, chemical pollution of food, water and air, lack
of exercise and chronic stress. These factors are further aggravated by
the failure of modern medicine to recognize them as agents of dis-"ease"
and death and the consequent failure to take preventative measures against
them. more

The future of the Internet
is up for grabs. Large and powerful corporations are lobbying Washington
to turn the World Wide Web into what critics call a "toll road," threatening
the equitability that has come to define global democracy's newest forum.
"The genius of the Internet was that it made the First Amendment a living
document again for millions of Americans," says Robert McChesney, a media
scholar and activist and co-author of OUR

probably going to set our entire communication system, and, really, our
entire society, on a course that it won't be able to change for generations."

"This book focuses in more detail on the issue of dental induced toxicity.
The book is well written and an absolute must for anyone suffering from
any vague, unresponsive illness. This book also sends shock-waves through
the standard medical dogma of what constitutes "incurables," in that case
after case of serious medical diseases were reversed after removing mercury
amalgams from patient's mouths. The book is co-written by a physician,
who's own health benefits were revealed after he underwent dental detox.

Heavy Metal Detoxification Resource:
Dr. Mark Sircus - Children and adults are
being exposed to thousands of trillions (quadrillions) of mercury atoms
each day primarily from dental amalgam fillings in the mouth, which leak
toxic vapors twenty-four hours a day seven days a week. Most recently though,
mercury has been increasing in the foods we eat, especially in the form
of fish. It is also increasingly in the air and the water we drink and
is entering into the soil where it is just beginning to threaten biological
activity there. In the next ten years, we will pollute the world with approximately
another sixty to ninety thousand tons of mercury after already adding over
600 thousand tons during the past century. more

What
Every Parent Should Know BEFORE Their Childen Are Vaccinated! Why
are a growing number of parents and health care professionals around the
world questioning vaccination? The controversy stems from the thousands
of deaths and permanent disabilities attributed to vaccination annually,
as well as the many published medical studies, government statistics, congressional
testimonies, and other credible sources that directly contradict commonly
held assumptions about vaccine safety and effectiveness.
Bart Classen, a Maryland physician, published data showing that diabetes
rates rose significantly in New Zealand following a massive hepatitis B
vaccine campaign in young children, and that diabetes rates also went up
sharply in Finland after three new childhood vaccines were introduced.
More pictures
of vaccine damage available to view at the
CDC
website
In fall 1997, two influential professional magazines featured articles
asking the question: Has the decrease of infectious diseases in childhood
through the mass use of vaccines been replaced with an increase in chronic
diseases such as diabetes and asthma? The Economist, a prestigious international
magazine read by world leaders in government, business and public policy,
and Science News, a magazine read by both health care professionals and
the general public, explored the reported links between vaccines and chronic
diseases in their November 22, 1997 issues.
