 So we see that mercury poisoning has been a problem throughout the history of industrialized nations. Unfortunately, the problem is not getting better, only worse. Our knowledge about the effects of long-term exposure is somewhat limited, but a significant number of recent studies have shed some light on the potentially serious effects of such exposure. One problem we have is our limited ability to directly measure mercury levels in living tissues. |

The Four Studies
Four autism twin studies have been published to date. Each of these investigations studied pairs of twins reared together in the same family. There have been no studies of reared-apart twins where one or both members of the pair have been diagnosed with autism. |

| For example, between the years 1932 and 1968 in Minamata Bay, Japan, the world witnessed one of the two largest outbreaks of mercury poisoning in history. During this extended period the Chisso Factory of Minamata produced and dumped one hundred tons of mercury into the Minamata Bay in the process of manufacturing acetic acid, used in making vinyl chloride for floor tiles and artificial leather. By 1982 over 1,773 residents of the area were suffering from severe mercury toxicity, and 456 of these people eventually died. |

 It causes chronic, low-level mercury poisoning that I have no doubt is partly responsible for today's epidemic of Alzheimer's disease, dementia and various neurological disorders. The American Dental Association, no surprise, continues to insist that mercury fillings are completely safe, despite all the evidence showing that mercury fillings create mercury vapor.
Some forward-thinking dentists, however, are spearheading a movement to ban mercury fillings. The International Academy of Oral Medicine & Toxicology (www.IAOMT. |

 Most of these people die, by the way, with symptoms of neurological destruction -- precisely the sort of destruction that might be initiated by mercury poisoning.
Shielding the vaccine manufacturers
By the way, if the mercury in a bird flu vaccine harms you, you may have absolutely no recourse in the United States. U.S. lawmakers are currently considering a law called the Biodefense and Pandemic Vaccine and Drug Development Act of 2005 (s. 1873, nicknamed “Bioshield II”). |

 REPPED: The House of Representatives will vote this week on a controversial "national food uniformity" labeling law that will take away local government and states' power to require food safety labels such as those required in California and other states on foods or beverages that are likely to cause cancer, birth defects, allergic reactions, or mercury poisoning. This bill would also prevent citizens in local municipalities and states from passing laws requiring that genetically engineered foods and ingredients such as Monsanto's recombinant Bovine Growth Hormone (rBGH) be labeled. |

 Mike: Another reason people might not want a marine source of omega-3 is because of the mercury poisoning in the fish and the heavy metals, right?
Ayerza: You are right. And that is a problem that is coming up and increasing every year. Unfortunately, there are few solutions we have for that, and fish still has that problem. You know, the USDA is warning us that pregnant women should avoid fish – not all of them, but the main ones – and it's a big problem how we will find our omega-3 source.
Mike: So chia seeds are a wonderful solution to the omega-3 problem. |

 We also see dangerous side effects in statin drugs, which, by the way, produce effects on the nervous system that are in some ways similar to mercury poisoning. So while the FDA and nutritional supplement critics are trying to get you to focus on these imported products, they are ignoring the much bigger picture, which is that virtually all popular prescription drugs are made with dangerous chemical compounds that threaten the health of the American public. And those are being widely consumed right now. Vioxx isn't the only dangerous drug, you know. |

| Gowers, one of the great men of neurology, noted in his textbook in 1900 on diseases of the nervous system, A Manual of Diseases of the Nervous System, under the chapter on mercury poisoning: "The weakly suffer more readily than the strong, and individual differences in susceptibility vary greatly."
Another way mercury can damage cells is by interfering with protein synthesis, the building of proteins for the cell. Rats exposed to inorganic mercury experience dramatic reductions in protein synthesis, primarily because of mercury binding to RNA and DNA. |

 Other proposed causes of chronic fatigue syndrome include anemia, arthritis, chronic mercury poisoning from amalgam dental fillings, hypoglycemia, hypothyroidism, infection with the fungus Candida albicans, and sleep problems.
Fibromyalgia, a muscle disorder that causes muscle weakness and fatigue, has been found in many people with chronic fatigue syndrome. Intestinal parasites are also comparatively common in people with this condition. |
| Other possible causes that have been proposed include infection with the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), the virus that causes infectious mononucleosis, or with the fungus Candida albicans; chronic mercury poisoning from amalgam dental fillings; anemia; parasites; hypoglycemia; and hypothyroidism. Some experts believe that fibromyalgia may be related to chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), which causes similar symptoms, except that in fibromyalgia, muscle pain predominates over fatigue, whereas in CFS, fatigue predominates over pain. |
| Many food and environmental allergies may be directly attributable to mercury poisoning. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has linked exposure to mercury vapor to menstrual disorders and spontaneous abortion (miscarriage) as well. Mercury exposure in pregnant women can cause neurological damage, such as lowered intelligence and delayed development in infants. In addition, the mortality rate for infants is significantly increased when mothers are exposed to mercury. |
| Children who have severe mercury poisoning can experience acro-dynia, a syndrome characterized by peeling and pinkness of the skin on the hands, nose, and feet; blindness; increased heart rate; agitation; and pain in the arms and legs.
Signs that indicate the presence of toxic mercury levels include behavioral changes, depression, confusion, irritability, and hyperactivity. People with this toxicity may also experience allergic reactions or asthma. They may complain about a metallic taste in the mouth, and their teeth may loosen. |
| Many experts suspect that mercury poisoning is behind many cases of MS. Mercury has been shown to bind to the DNA of cells and cell membranes, causing cellular distortion and inhibited cell function. The installation of mercury amalgam dental fillings (the chief source of mercury exposure for most people in the United States) has been known to produce symptoms indistinguishable from those of multiple sclerosis in some people. Further, the levels of mercury in people with MS have been found to be an average of seven times higher than those in healthy people. |

 After 1786, in Europe, the amalgamation method used fuel and waterpower to save labor; but, by then, thousands of unfortunate Amerindians had died in two centuries from mercury poisoning. So, incidentally, did the far fewer Spaniards who were exposed to the metal.
The pure silver was then shipped to Europe. For two centuries or more the annual Spanish treasure fleet sailed north from Cartagena in modern Colombia, through the Caribbean, past Florida and then across to Cadiz. |

 Mercury is a deadly poison causing all types of brain dysfunction, moto-neurological dysfunction, learning disabilities, and causes dozens of other ailments to develop. This mercury poisoning is most prevalent in vaccines, but also in farm-raised fish and in the air we breathe. Today manufacturing plants put more mercury in the air than ever before. We are all being exposed to more mercury than ever before. Our water supplies are loaded with mercury, more so than ever before in our history. |

 This means that chronic or even possible acute mercury poisoning can present as hypothyroidism. We all have steadily increasing body burdens of mercury from both our foods and water. A test for selenium and mercury is indicated in cases of obvious hypothyroid signs and symptoms with normal range TSH and T4.
Isoflavones, such as genistein and equol, are inhibitors of thyroid peroxidase, the thyroid follicle enzyme that makes T4 and T3. This inhibition may generate goiters, hypothyroidism, and autoimmune thyroiditis. |

 MSM detoxifies mercury. mercury poisoning seems to be a common underlying factor in Candida.
Herbs that are great allies against Candida include: oregano, garlic, pau d'arco tea, and cat's claw tea.

I recommend following a cleansing and intestinal rebuilding program either before or after a sugar fast, such as the EJUVA program. |
| I have repeatedly seen how raw-fish diets lead to parasite-worm infections and/or mercury poisoning. This is because animals accumulate and concentrate toxicity from the environment and no places are left on Earth that are entirely devoid of pollution. It is especially true with fish, as they live in and constantly filter impure water leaving toxins in their tissues. Because toxicity is channeled to the liver of animals, fish liver oil is likely to contain large doses of PCB's. |
| I know individuals and friends who were close to death from mercury poisoning due to leaching amalgam fillings. They had the mercury removed, discovered eating raw plant foods, sought other alternative healing methodologies and healed. Consult a holistic dentist for proper removal and replacement. Be sure you are protected from mercury amalgam dust by a "rubber dam" when you have your fillings removed.

There now exists an enormous body of medical literature documenting the deleterious effects of chronic low-level mercury exposure. Effects of such exposure can vary significantly depending on the predominant tissue and/or organs involved, as well as other factors. |

 One of the most frequently seen types of mitochondrial damage is from the heavy metal mercury. mercury poisoning is much more common than most people think. We are exposed to mercury by eating large, predatory marine fish such as tuna, swordfish, mahi-mahi, halibut, and bluefish. Mercury exposure also results from silver (amalgam) dental fillings. Anyone who eats very large amounts of tuna and swordfish, and has a mouthful of amalgam fillings, risks possible mitochondrial damage. |
| He might be suffering from mercury poisoning.
When we measured his blood for mercury levels, we indeed discovered Jerry had the highest levels of anyone we'd ever tested. We went forward with our treatment (which required intensive mercury-elimination therapy). Within six months, Jerry's mercury levels had dropped significantly and his mental functioning had improved.
Jerry and Dorothy were convinced that because Jerry had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, he was going be sick for the rest of his life. |
