Kris Homme is a member of our mercury support group.  She was a guest on a radio show talking about the lax regulations of mercury, even though it is a known neurotoxin (brain poison).

I was surprised that she recommended the DAN! doctors, because many members have been led astray by DAN doctors, so I would emphatically say that beware of DAN doctors if you choose to investigate this further.

Kris brings up the IV chelation and how dangerous it is–it really depends on one’s ability to excrete mercury, which she touches on, but doesn’t explain thoroughly.  I have Irish genes and the Irish are known poor excreters with the double APO gene.  If I were to do IV chelation, my body would not be able to excrete, and therefore, the mercury would be re-distributed, probably to the brain.  Dr. Cutler said he watched as a friend became mentally ill from IV chelation, and he then knew it was not a safe protocol to get the mercury out.  His friend never recovered.

I also wish that Kris had gone into her own debilitating symptoms–she now has macular degeneration and could not even read what I’m writing here.  She had to leave her engineering job because of mercury poisoning illness.

She also did not emphasize our toxic environment–from my own experience with the coal dust spewing from the coal burning power plant when I was a teen, I know with absolute certainty that environmental toxins are powerful and they do affect us in ways that we are not necessarily aware of, until it’s too late.

I found an article on Kris on alternet.org.  Besides CBS (60 Minutes), this is the only prominent media exposure asking about mercury poisoning.

Lastly, here is a video on Boyd Haley, PhD, who was a chemistry professor and spoke out on amalgams long ago.  It’s with great sadness that he speaks of the link between mercury and Alzheimers…I know in my heart that my mother suffered from mercury poisoning and most likely undiagnosed Celiac disease.
