I just found out I have Heavy Metal Poisoning....not from my doctor but from a natural-alternative doctor which I had to pay out of pocket for ($200.00).
Why can't doctor's give a Heavy Metal Poisoning Urine Test?????? This would have helped me for years and years of being deathly sick and not being able to heal myself and not knowing why. This 6-hour urine test that had to be sent to Doctor's Data in St. Charles, IL cost $50.00. The rest was initial fee for doctor. I did find out I have HEAVY METAL POISONING, VERY ELEVATED (to the top of the chart):
LEAD
GADOLINIUM
ALUMINUM
ARSENIC
BARIUM
MERCURY
THALLIUM
TIN
TUNGSTEN
URANIUM
Each and every heavy metal poisoning has different side effects. I wonder how many others are out there not knowing the heavy metals causing their sickness.

While the protocols for detoxification set out in the link above are worthwhile they omit the role of vitamin d melatonin and magnesium
Chelatng with clay and magnesium
Melatonin Prevents Iron Induced Brain Damage
It's also the case that low vitamin D levels are associated with low glutathione levels and to benefit from the actions of glutathione you have to raise vit d status.

So what did this natural alternative doctor recommend that you do?

Ive read that there is a strong association between heavey metals and fungus/candida... that the metals create an environment that makes it easy for the fungus to survive. I have a friend who has been dealing with sytemic candida for a very long time. She just got a heavy metals test done recently and she is loaded. She started chelation therpay by IV.

Chemist here I strongly suggest you gate a test a certified lab. Gadolinium, uranium, thallium Unrealistic unless you work around those.

I started IV chelation. I also have the fungus in my blood and toe-nails. I guess what you read was true!

The 'aluminum' is probably because I wear deodorant.
The 'mercury' is probably because I have had mercury fillings.
The 'lead' is probably because I drank city water until 2005.
The 'gadolinium' is probably because since I was poisoned by Splenda, I was couch-ridden and watched T.V. for the last 7 years with an old T.V. that was close to me. Gadolinium can be caused from that.
The 'Uranium' I'm wondering if it is from all the CT SCANS, MRI SCANS, Hida Scans, etc.
The major souce of 'thallium' is in the foods we eat.

Unrealistic???? I can understand why I have what I have and I think if more people got a test, they would be astonished....just like I was.

I am not slamming you by any means. I am just saying:

Uranium is a heavy metal which is mildly radioactive, you do not get from cat scans, x-rays etc.

How does watching TV have anything to do with Gadolinium? It is a rare earth metal and is not common.

Mercury (this one is realistic) can come from eating too much Tuna, Lead (also very realistic) can be environemntal and Aluminum is in anti persperants. But what can it hurt going to certified lab? Trust me, I am a chemist, if someone is telling you gadolinium and uranium, that is quite odd.

I was kind of wondering about the uranium as well unless you've been to Iraq lately.

I am also wondering about your diet as well. You need to be on a phase one diet in order to starve candida.

Fungus isn't supposed to attack the body until after you die, not while you're still walking around.

I have been researching fungus for a long time, and can tell you that systemic candida is nothing to take lightly, however, I think you already know that.

Good luck with both issues. (Maybe some day you can write a book about your experience)

Just checked Gadolinium is used in MRI contrast agents, so if you have had an injection of it, you would be high in gadolinium. I would recheck specifically for uranium and thallium

Uranium blows in the air from tailing piles at or near uranium mines. It is not so uncommon. There have been open tailing piles for many decades... just blowing that crap around. Remember, the air we breath circulates the planet including the pollution that ciruclates with it.... the constitutes of dust from the middle east eveentually reach us. I have seen studies on middle east dust in the UK ... African dust in the USA

Over 2000 uranium bombs have been exploted in the continential United States. Many many of them on the surface of the earth. Many thousands more exploded on the surface around the world... so that is where you get your uranium.

How long did the doctor say the therapy was going to be for? Have you started? Is it around $150.00 per session?

Sounds like a nice little earner for the therapist...

If he is right, a detox diet - plenty of fresh, organic fruits and vegetables is your first step.

Leaf coriander, or cilantro/Chinese parsley, is a powerful natural detoxifier. Excellent at mercury elimination especially.

Selenium is also a mercury magnet

Yes, and Spirulina is also a good chelator of heavy metals.

Iodine detoxes mercury... and if you do iodine you should also be taking selenium as a matter of course.

Personally I would not do the IV chelation unless things were very critical. I will say this, a friend did a couple of sessions back in the 1970's and we saw what looked like a few tiny metal flakes floating in the urine. Could that be possible? can't say for sure. He also said he experienced what felt like an opening in his brain... from increased circulation? The doctor he went to used thermograms of the head to determine the need for increased circulation in the head for which chelation therapy was a cure... I saw a number of before and after thermogram photos, and it seems to have worked with reported mental improvements. Although the doc did treat heavy metals he also believed that in his anti aging protocols unloading the vessels that fee the brain was critical to maintaining clarity and this is how he did it at that time.

Anyway. there can be a nunmber of downfalls with IV chelation therapy and unless things are critical I would not do it... but I know you have been suffering for a long time Peanuts4u... so it may be the best course of action. But you may not need to do all the recommended treatments and finish up at home with other methods.. its is rather spendy.

The thing we need to remember to do is to do things consistently that chelates metals out. Not to wait till we are really sick.

I hope this helps to clear out your liver Peanuts... maybe this is the source of that problem.
