THOSE MERCURY FILLINGS IN YOUR MOUTH!

Although they are called ‘silver fillings’ they are actually made up of 50% Mercury, 35% Silver, 13% tin, 2% copper and a tiny bit of zinc. Now I have been trying to find out why it is that mercury, which is one of the most toxic of heavy metals, is used to put fillings in people’s mouth when scrap dental amalgam (silver fillings) is classified as a hazardous waste by the American Environmental Protection Agency, and by law must be stored in unbreakable, sealed containers, and handled without touching! If it is unsafe when it is taken out of your mouth then how on earth is it that it is safe when it was in your mouth? Beats me for sure!

Mercury is a known poison that can penetrate every living cell of the human body! It is more toxic than arsenic, lead and cadmium, and there is no minimum amount that you can absorb, that will not do damage to cells in the human body! Those amalgams have been banned by Sweden since 1997 after a study revealed that at least 250,000 Swedes have immune and other health disorders directly related to the mercury in their teeth! Denmark, Austria and Germany have also now banned these fillings, however by contrast the American and Canadian Dental Associations are still insisting up to today that these fillings are safe to be placed in your mouth! (check their websites and you will be shocked at what you see!)  The only conclusion to be drawn from this is that because North America has such a high litigious culture they are afraid to come out and confirm that these silver fillings are harmful because there would be an overwhelming number of lawsuits against these dentists! So what I believe they are doing is giving the dentists time to put the necessary clauses in their fine prints and have us sign away our rights to sue them if anything happens! In the meanwhile they are quietly turning to the resin (white) fillings.

Mercury has been linked to Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimers, Lupus and other neurological disorders. People have been known to have significantly reduced symptoms from these illnesses after removing their amalgam fillings. Check out the LA Times article dated May 5, 2011 which I have placed on the ‘in the news’ page.

This is an excerpt from an article written by Charles More in the Natural Life Magazine (February 1997):

“It is well-established that elemental mercury vapour emits from amalgam tooth fillings during chewing, brushing, and eating hot and/or acidic foods. Most of this vapour is inhaled, allowing efficient absorption across the alveolar membrane in the lungs. Mercury easily crosses the blood/brain barrier – the brain and nervous system's main natural defense against many toxic substances. It can bind strongly to sulfur-containing proteins in nerve tissue (which may explain the association with MS – a disease of the nerve sheaths), and deposits in virtually all body tissues and organs. In experiments on mercury fillings in sheep, Dr. Murray Vimy, a dentist at the University of Calgary, proved that mercury migrates from the teeth into nearly all body tissues, especially the brain, kidneys, and liver.”

My suggestion to you therefore is to get rid of those silver fillings from your mouth if you still have any, however do not remove them all at once and make sure that you go to a Bio-Dentist as they are the ones who know how to remove them without causing mercury leakage into your system. If after you have been to the dentist you feel lethargic and find it difficult to concentrate then it is a very strong possibility that you are suffering from mercury poisoning! Visit a good naturopath to get some help and start taking chlorella to help cleanse your body of the toxin.  Dr Vimy had concluded that there is some risk that mass replacements could expose the patient to more mercury than if old fillings were left alone. So proceed with caution…but proceed you should!

Be blessed and stay healthy!
