Remove Your Mercury Fillings - 9 Ways to Detox After the Last Filling is Out
Once the last mercury filling has been removed from your mouth it is time to begin a gentle heavy metal detox. Heavy metals like mercury, easily enters our bodies but are tricky to remove. The following suggestions aim to use substances that will pull the mercury out of tissues, bind with a chelating agent and carry it out of your body. As the mercury leaves your body it does so through your organs of elimination (also called your emunctories) they include your bowel, kidneys, lungs, skin and liver.
The goal is to prime these organs of elimination and detox (specifically the liver) and to ensure a slow and gradual removal of the mercury.
1. Detox Formula
This formula will do the bulk of the chelation and should only be started once the last mercury filling is out. If this formula is started when you still have mercury in your mouth, you may aggravate as you risk pulling mercury from the fillings into your circulation and tissues.
Choose a detox formula that contains ingredients like chlorophyll, chlorella and/or cilantro to pull the mercury from the tissues. Sulfur containing amino acids like L-Methionine and L-Cysteine should also be included to carry the metals out of the body. I like and use the AMD Formula from Genestra, but there are other good formulas on the market as well. Take your detox formula 2-3 times daily following meals or as indicated.
2. Drainage
Drainage of the organs of elimination is essential for a smooth detox. Unda's basic drainage is a great way to achieve this.
3. Homeopathics
For a deeper detox and clearing, take a homeopathic amalgam detox like Merc sol 30C.
4. Diet
Eat a diet limited in sugar and processed foods, but make sure your diet is high in protein since the sulfur bearing amino acids will help in the detoxification. Try to include 2 or 3 cloves of garlic in your diet daily, this is to build up sulfur stores.
5. Hydration
Drinks lots of purified water to help flush the toxins out and stay hydrated.
6. Culture Your Internal Garden
Take a high potency quality strain of probiotics, like HMF Super Powder from Genestra. This is to make sure you have a strong intestinal flora to support you during the detox.
7. Healthy Bowel
Since 90% of mercury leaves the body through the bowel, make sure it is moving well, or you may end up making things worse! You should have 1 -2 bowel movements daily. If you need help to get your bowel going take 3 tbsp of Hemp Seeds daily, drink lots of water and take a green powder that is naturally high in magnesium.
8. Additional Supplementation
As the mercury is removed, essential nutrients are used up in the process or chelated out along with the mercury. For this reason it is very important to take supplements like a multi mineral, B-complex and vitamin C daily. Take these supplements away from the detox formula.
9. Other Therapies
Dry brushing and sauna are more ways to support your body during the heavy metal detox.
It depends on how much mercury you have in your body and your state of health on how long you do the heavy metal detox. Generally this protocol is followed for 6 weeks and can be repeated after taking a break for a few weeks if needed.
