Mercury And Its Use In Fillings
By Jakob Culver
Being a doctor of Internal Medicine and a Fellow of the American College of Physicians. I have always been an avid reader and have extensively delved into Homeopathy, Ayurveda, Nutrition, Environmental and Functional Medicine. For more than 18 years, I have been practicing. As I always had a sweet tooth, so at an early age of 16 I developed a cavity for which I got my first root canal and filling. My father took me to the best dentist in town and I came back sporting two amalgam fillings. I had no idea then, that amalgam was more than 50% mercury.
To continue it further; few months later I had the first sinus infection of my life. Then gradually there was a gradual almost unnoticeable decline in my health, so much so that when I would get up in the morning, tired. I felt indistinguishably achy.
With all what I was experiencing; I ascribed it to overwork and stress and continued to push myself. Soon after that I started developing headaches.
During my study of Environmental Medicine, I came to know that Amalgam was 50% Mercury and was toxic; I still did not make the correlation with my health. I thought vaguely that someday I would have the amalgams taken out but not yet. To get it done right cost thousands of dollars.
Fortunately I came across this book by Hal Huggin's: "Uninformed consent" and I don’t know what motivated me I sought out a biological dentist and in a single setting had all the amalgam removed. The next morning, for the first time in 20 years, I woke up refreshed as I used to feel in my childhood. No aches, no pains, no fatigue and no more headaches.
Some astonishing facts about mercury
The most toxic and heaviest metal on earth is Mercury. Even in the so called bound form in amalgam, it vaporizes, it leaches, it travels to the brain, the heart, the thyroid, the liver, the kidneys, and the connective tissue.
Mercury’s first use can be traced back to 1800's. Leukemia was first reported a few years after amalgam was put into widespread use as a dental filling material. It is curious that with all the strides that were made, in the field of Medicine and Dentistry they continued to use this material. Amalgam is treated as a toxic waste after it is removed from the fillings.
Though everybody including dentist and his staff would consider mercury as a hazardous material. Yet it is apparently OK to put it into people’s mouths. Many dental offices let the water with the removed amalgam just wash into the sewer system after which it ends up in our rivers and oceans.
According to Dr. Huggins; hypertension and heart disease are actually caused by heavy metal poisoning from mercury.
What actually happens is that if body has some mercury then it tries to marginalize the mercury by raising the cholesterol levels and closing the mercury off in plaques that line the arterial walls. So, Hyperlipidemia is a symptom not the disease itself according to him. There is plenty of evidence that heavy metal chelation for heart disease works.
Many cardiologists have now got into the act whereas before only maverick doctors were performing heavy metal chelation. If there was no heavy metal there in the first place, then why would chelation work? But, that is not all. Mercury was and is also being used as a preservative for vaccines, eyedrops etc. Under the name "thimerosol". Who would have guessed? Name changing is a wonderful thing.
So actually is it always like that? One can hide a lot of poisons by just changing their name. MSG becomes "natural flavor", mercury becomes amalgam etc etc. After the State of California banned the use of thimerosol in vaccines, their Autism rate declined.
What I have say is just that I hold no grudges against anyone what I am happy about is that now to wake up in the morning is as refreshing, energetic as when l was a sixteen year old.
