2. An interesting discovery

Today is March 27, 2006 and the improvement of my health (in major areas) seems to have leveled off. I am feeling great and am more confident of my health, but am still dealing with some "lesser" symptoms that over the last 25 or more years, I have just learned to lived with. They had become so much a part of my life that I began to think they were normal - UNTIL I started doing some research on mercury amalgams. Besides websites and life examples, I got a lot of information about mercury poisoning from this book; "A Mouth Full of Poison" written by Dr. Myron Wentz (if you have mercury amalgams in your teeth, this book is a must read). Dr. Myron Wentz is the developer of the nutritional supplements that helped me to get out from under my body and needless to say, he already had my respect.

One of the most interesting facts I learned is that around 1848, the American Dental Association did NOT allow mercury to be put into people's teeth because of the dangerous nature of the substance. However, barbers also did dental work in those days and had no qualms about using mercury in fillings since it was so cheap and so easy to work with. Well, you guessed it; because the barber shops were taking business away from dentists and the dentists were losing money, the dental Association at that time disbanded and another was established that allowed mercury to be put into people's teeth.
So, they looked the other way and ignored their previous moral stand - to do no harm.

Most dental amalgams are close to 50% mercury and your dentist will tell you that mercury becomes stable when it's mixed with other metals. THEY BELIEVE IT BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THEY'VE BEEN TOLD. It's not true. It is now a proven, documented fact that mercury is constantly being released from dental fillings and it's more poisonous than arsenic, lead or cadmium. Actually, a number of European countries banned mercury over ten years ago and have seen positive results - for one, fewer children with certain medical problems. Yes, some people are more prone to the dangers of the poison because their immune system is weak; they're particularly sensitive to mercury - but it's still a POISON. If you're pregnant, please don't have any mercury fillings put in or removed from your teeth (do it later).

As I read through Dr. Wentz's book, I began to realize there WAS a correlation between the times I had dental work done and the times I experienced serious MS symptoms - and I was not pleased! I'm going to be writing more on my discovery of mercury poisoning and it's affects on human bodies - particularly, my body. I have an appointment in St. John NB (at the closest Mercury-Free dentist to Halifax) on April 7th to have all my mercury amalgams removed - there are 12 or 13 large ones left in my teeth. It will take all day and it will be expensive, but I'm positive there will be additional significant improvement in my health.

Next time, I'm going to give you a list of symptoms that I experienced and how they came "sneekily" just months after my dental appointments. I'm also going to make a list of symptoms that I expect to change in the months following my mercury amalgam removal.

Again, I want everyone to know that sicknesses and diseases can be beaten - there is hope for a healthier and happier life!
