| This fluorosilicic acid is mislabeled "fluoride" and then dripped into the water supply based on the advice of half-crazed dentists whose mouths are apparently filled with lots of mercury, because they think they alone have the right to determine whether an entire population should be medicated with a highly toxic substance like fluorosilicic acid.
I've been to meetings where dentists were up-in-arms insisting the entire population, no matter what level of fluoride they might be consuming elsewhere, needed to be medicated with this, and should have no choice whatsoever in the matter. |

 Many experts clearly feel that mercury is a major problem in autism. You cannot get the mercury out with anything that is known. You try to and do DMSA and whatever, and they cannot get it out. They have found that viruses sequestered the heavy metals, and that the viruses were hard to get out of the body. Well, it turns out that RNA is a tremendous anti-viral substance.
Dr. Gary Gordon was giving these RNA factors to autistic children and knocking out the viruses and then getting the mercury detox. It is a more complex story. |

 If you buy fish that are lower on the food chain, you'll have less exposure to mercury. mercury is toxic only in the absence of selenium, an essential dietary mineral. If you take selenium supplements or get 200 meg of it in a multivitamin-multimineral supplement, it should protect you. If you eat seafood judiciously, and you can do so two to four times weekly, the benefits outweigh the risks. Pregnant women and small children, however, should still avoid high-mercury seafood. |

 Defenders of CFLs claim these lights are good for the environment because even though they contain toxic mercury, they use less energy than incandescent lights. And since coal-fired power plants release mercury into the atmosphere, the use of less energy means less overall mercury is being introduced to the environment. While this sounds sensible at first, it's still junk logic: How does harming the planet slightly less than before deserve a "green" claim of any kind? |

 National Academy of Sciences has recently concluded that there is strong evidence for fetal neurotoxicity of methylmercury, even at minimal exposures,39 and there are efforts worldwide to restrict mercury flux into the environment. As mentioned previously in this chapter, you should take care to consume fish moderately and educate yourself and your family members as to which types of fish retain the most mercury.
Arsenic

 Vaccines are preserved with methyl mercury, one of the most dangerous chemical forms of the toxic heavy metal. This mercury is injected directly into the bodies of children where it causes severe neurological damage. And yes, it does cause Autism, despite what you've read in the dumbed-down press. Only a fool would inject their child with mercury-preserved vaccines.

 I do not recommend that fillings containing mercury be used for any reason. I recommend that you take extreme care in their removal. If you have mercury fillings already in place, only dentists trained in proper detoxification techniques should remove mercury fillings. Also, your physician can work with you to ensure that mercury levels will not climb as the fillings are removed. Removing mercury fillings without taking the proper precautions can cause an elevated mercury release in the body and immune system malfunction. |

 Mercury fillings, for example, currently release 34 metric tons of toxic mercury into the environment each year. That's about as much as all the coal plants in a sizeable nation, yet the EPA pretends mercury fillings have no environmental impact whatsoever.
Aspartame, too, is a known toxic substance that's well documented as a neurotoxin. And fluoridation? Well, let's just say that once you realize where the "fluoride" really comes from (it's a toxic waste chemical scraped off the emissions scrubbers of coal-fired power plants), you start to understand the magnitude of the fluoridation scam. |

 I would encourage everyone, but especially those with children, to avoid getting mercury amalgam fillings in their teeth. If you ask your dentist about possible alternatives to these mercury amalgams, he does have much safer options. (Don't run out and have all of your mercury fillings removed, though. If it is not done properly, it may cause more harm than if you just leave them alone.)

In the U.S., the FDA warns women about the health hazards of excess mercury consumption, but fails to inform the public of the tremendous health benefits of oily fish.
Great nutrition during pregnancy creates smarter kids with healthier nervous systems and better language skills, which leads to greater social success and career success.
Quote: "Expectant mothers should eat more oily fish and boost their intake of fatty acids like DHA, which are available in nutritional supplements. |

 That's an enormous amount of mercury, and almost half of the total amount of mercury emitted into the atmosphere by coal-fired power plants.
Many state governing agencies have even adopted their own regulations regarding fluorescent lights. In California, Minnesota, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Wisconsin, it is unlawful for anyone to dispose of fluorescent bulbs as universal waste, according to LightBulbRecycling.com.
So far, BanTheBulb.org fails to offer mercury-free alternative to fluorescent lights, such as my own company's high-efficiency LED lighting products found at www. |

 Methyl mercury binds tightly to the proteins in fish tissue, including muscle; cooking does not reduce the mercury content significantly. Methyl mercury levels have also been rising dramatically in freshwater fish worldwide. As a general rule, freshwater fish should be assumed to be mercury laden unless specifically proven otherwise.
We suggest limiting fish intake to no more than about 2 pounds per week. That translates to four 8-ounce servings per week maximum. |

 Sounds reasonable, but while the Institute of Medicine's Food and Nutrition Board recommends avoiding food with more than 2 parts per million (ppm) of lead and 1 ppm of mercury, there are no federal standards about lead and mercury content in supplements.26 Again, there are no federal standards about lead and mercury content in supplements. This is absolute insanity.
In adults, high levels of lead cause kidney problems and high blood pressure. In children, lead affects the brain and nervous system. It can also decrease hearing and cause hyperactivity and seizures. |
| Mercury can damage the brain, heart, kidneys, lungs and immune system.28 In its warning, the DOHMH referenced two supplements: Emperor's Tea Pill, which contained 5,400 ppm lead and 950 ppm mercury, and Hepatico Extract, which contained 1,100 ppm lead and 3,600 ppm mercury. Though the labels on both supplements claimed that the metals promoted the body's natural balance, they have been recalled and banned from shelves. But the reality is that both supplements still made it through the distribution channels and into the consumer marketplace.

 Better yet, seek out a "natural" dentist who won't use mercury fillings or highly toxic fluoride, and who will turn to surgery as a last resort rather than a "standard procedure." Don't be tricked into unnecessary (and medically dangerous) surgical procedures that can only cause you harm.

 Then there are toxic metals like mercury. While this is yet to be "proven" conclusively, most nutritional experts I know believe that selenium is a powerful chelator, meaning it attaches to metals like mercury and helps to remove them from the body. Japanese researchers have found that adding selenium to the diets of birds gave them "complete protection" from large amounts of mercury. |

 It is worth noting how horrible the mercury process was. It involved pounding the ore—originally in a pestle and mortar— and then mixing with water until the mud or soft paste formed. The paste was then dried, and dry paste mixed with salt, turned over by hand and trodden into a stable mixture by men or mules or llamas. Copper pyrites were then mixed in and mercury was added by straining through a coarse cloth. Intimate mixing was then repeated by foot for several days until all the mercury had been incorporated. |

 Blood pressure is measured in units of millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), which is the amount of atmospheric pressure required to support a column of mercury 1 millimeter high. Blood pressure has a number for systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Your systolic pressure, the pressure in the vessels when the heart beats, should be less than 140 mm Hg. Your diastolic pressure, the pressure between heartbeats, should be less than 90 mm Hg.
Like heart disease, hypertension is a disease of modern civilization. |

 A normal blood pressure reading is 120/80 or less; in other words, the systolic pressure is 120 millimeters of mercury or less, and the diastolic pressure is 80 millimeters of mercury or less. Borderline high blood pressure falls in the range of 140/90 to 160/95. Hypertension is regarded as blood pressure greater than 160/95 in repeated measurements. Temporary or transient elevation in blood pressure can reflect anxiety, transient dietary factors, changes in exercise habits, and the like and may not reflect disease at all. |

 Result: Widespread mercury toxicity in children, resulting in a sharp increase in neurological conditions, including behavioral disorders, infertility and autism. Ignorant, obstinate dentists continue to use mercury fillings today, and the American Dental Association remains in full support of this extremely dangerous heavy metal that results in the mass poisoning of children.
Your kid have a cold? It's probably because their tonsils need to be removed! Tonsils have no biological function anyway, doctors claimed. |

 Flu shots contain mercury. Dr. Russell Blaylock, author of Excitoxins, explains, "Flu vaccines contain 25 units of organic mercury. These vaccinations, which offer little protection against yearly flu virus strains, are heavily promoted by the CDC, Public Health Department and most physicians."
So, along with the useless dose of the flu vaccine and the pain of getting jabbed in the arm with a needle, you also get, as a bonus, organic mercury, which is a heavy metal linked to neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. |
