Detoxification Protocol for Mercury & Heavy Metals
During and for 3 days after amalgam removal much of the mercury constituents are still floating around into the blood before it becomes assimilated into the body tissues. To maximize the detoxification via liver and kidneys, the International Association of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT) recommends the following, which I am in agreement.
Note: this is essentially a 3–day detox which can be very effective.
Preparation for Amalgam Removal
1.
Increase oral vitamin C dose to 3-5 grams daily beginning the day prior, day of
and for three days following the procedure. Daily dosage should follow the rule,
more is better to the level of ones tolerance and comfort level.
2.
Take /increase Alpha Lipoic Acid to 500-600 mg daily (day before, day of and for
3-days after) then reduce to 300 mg daily for one month (sustained release is best).
3.
Take ~1500 mg (~3 capsules) N-acetylcysteine (day before and for 3-days after)
then reduce to 1 cap till finished.
4.
Take ~1800 mg (~4 capsules) Modified Citrus Pectin (day before and for 3-days
after) then reduce to 1 cap till finished.
- Modified Citrus Pectin, Selenium or Cilantro helps bind mercury constituents in the blood.
- N-acetylcysteine and Alpha Lipoic Acid assists the liver in phase I detoxification in the liver.
- Vitamin C helps protect the body tissues and assists in detoxification.
