Re Mercury in amalgam

[Guest guest]

Dear Ian,

Here is some interesting information about taking Mercury out of

one's body:- I would like to thank Dottie for sending this to me - I

find it fascinating aand am now sowing Coriander Seeds to grow it in my

herb garden......

 

 

Studies have shown that cilantro or CORIANDER (Chinese parsley) can help

move mercury and other

toxic metals out of the central nervous system for excretion through the

urine or feces. To increase your

intake of cilantro, Dr. Klinghardt suggests making this " pesto " to

increase your intake of cilantro:

 

Start with fresh, organic cilantro and wash it thoroughly. Place the

cilantro in blender, along with water,

sea salt and olive oil. Blend the ingredients until creamy. Dr.

Klinghardt recommends taking 1-3 tbsp of

this cilantro pesto, three times daily with meals. For those suffering

from neurological problems, such as

Alzheimer’s or brain " fogginess " and difficulty concentrating, the pesto

may be taken more often, he

says.

Title: The Poor Man's Chelation Therapy

 

There's nothing I like more than learning about inexpensive, common

herbs or spices that exhibit

unusual healing properties. Historically, the use of herbs and spices in

cooking evolved as a method to

preserve foods and make them safer to store and eat. While we've grown

accustomed to using these

items to enhanced or accentuate flavors of food, researchers continue to

discover that they have much

more to offer than just good taste. A recent example involves the work

of Dr. Yoshiaki Omura.

 

Dr. Omura recently informed us that he discovered almost by accident,

that the leaves of the coriander

plant can accelerate the excretion of mercury, lead and aluminum from

the body. He had been treating

several patients for an eye infection called trachoma (granular

conjunctivitis), which is caused by the

micro-organism Chlamydia trachomatis. Following the standard treatment

with antibiotics. Dr. Omura

found that the patients' symptoms would clear up initially, then recur

within a few month. He experienced

similar difficulties in treating viral related problems like Herpes

Simplex types I & II and Cytomegalovirus

infection.

 

Cilantro Helps Flush Out Heavy Metals

 

After taking a closer look, Dr. Omura found those organisms seemed to

hide and flourish in area of the

body where there were concentrations of heavy metals like mercury, lead

and aluminum. Somehow the

organicism were able to use the toxic metals to protect themselves from

the antibiotics.

 

It just so happens that while he was testing for those metals, Dr. Omura

noticed the mercury level in the

urine increased after one consumed a healthy serving of Vietnamese soup.

The soup contains Chinese

parsley, or it is better known in this country, cilantro. (Some of you

may also know it as coriander, since

it comes form the leaves of the coriander plant.)

 

Further testing revealed that eating cilantro also increased urinary

excretion of lead and aluminum. And

when cilantro was used concurrently with antibiotics or natural

anti-viral agents and/ or fatty acids like

EPA with D.A., the above infection could be eliminated for good.

(Acupnct Electrother Res. 95:20 (3-4):

195-229.)

 

Dr. Omura has made a remarkable discovery. He's found a novel technique

which greatly increases our

ability to clear up recurring infections both viral and bacterial. And

perhaps more exciting, he's

discovered an inexpensive, easy way to remove (or " chelate " ) toxic

metals from the nervous system and

body tissue - one that anybody can use.

 

This is Great News for Amalgam Sufferers

 

Chelation therapy using chemicals like EDTA has long been used to help

remove these heavy metals,

but cilantro is the only natural substance I'M aware of that has

demonstrated this ability. This will

become news for people suffering from the ill effect of amalgam dental

fillings, which contains

approximately 50% mercury.

 

Dr. Omura recently performed another study in which three amalgam

filling where removed from an

individual using all of the precautions available to prevent absorption

of the mercury from the amalgam.

Even with strong air and water suction, water rinses, and a rubber

dental dam, significant amounts of

mercury were later found in the individual's lungs, kidneys,, endocrine

organs, liver and heart. There was

no mercury in these tissue prior to the amalgam removal.

 

Remarkably, without the help of any chelation agents, cilantro was able

to remove the mercury in two to

three weeks. (Acupunct Electrother Res 96;21 (2): 133-60.)

 

Since some of the patients didn't like the taste of fresh cilantro, Dr.

Omura had a pharmaceutical

company create a 100 mg cilantro tablet. In the above dental study, one

tablet was taken four times a

day. As of yet, I haven't been able to find a tested commercial tablet

of cilantro. It is believed that the

active component in cilantro are easily destroyed during processing. For

this reason, I recommend

sticking to fresh herb. It can be eaten raw in soup or salad, on tacos,

or as garnish with practically any

dish.

 

Recipe for Cilantro Pesto (Make That " Chelation Pesto " )

 

I would think it should also work if the cilantro were juiced, but

perhaps the easiest and tastiest way to

use the herb would be as the main ingredient in a home made pesto sauce.

You can start with the basic

recipe below and add other nuts and spices to suite your taste.

 

Cilantro Pesto

 

1 clove of garlic

1/2 cup of almonds, cashews, or other nuts

1 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves

2 tablespoons lemon juice

6 tablespoons olive oil

 

Put the cilantro and olive oil in blender and process until the cilantro

is chopped. Add the rest of the

ingredients and process to a lumpy past. (You may need to add a touch of

hot water and scrape the

sides of the blender.) You can change the consistency by altering the

amount of olive oil and lemon

juice, but keep the 3:1 ratio of oil to juice. (If freezes well, so you

can make several batches at once.)

 

In light of the ever-worsening quality of our water and soil and the

widespread use of metals in everyday

items like deodorant and cans, I would seriously suspect that all of us

have some toxic metals in our

body. And unless they are carried out by a chelating agent, things like

lead, aluminum and mercury

remain in the body forever. Besides associated with arthritic condition,

depression, muscle pain and

weakness, memory loss and deterioration, and maybe even Alzheimer's

disease.

 

Summer's here and cilantro is readily available across the country. It

is very popular herb in Mexican

cooking, and due to their large Mexican populations is easy to find

anywhere from Texas to California. In

other areas, you may need to visit an Oriental market or specialty

supermarket, (Remember, it's also

called Chinese parsley.)

 

I would highly recommend that you take advantage of this " poor man's

chelation treatment " . I'm in the

process of doing it now my shelf and intend to do so at least once or

twice a year from now on. All it

takes is adding fresh cilantro to your everyday foods or eating a couple

teaspoons of cilantro pesto a

day for two or three weeks; either will give the dose Dr. Omura used in

his research. Judging by the

price around here, that means you'd be spending less than a dollar for

two weeks of cleansing! Of

course, if you really don't like cilantro, you can always spend a

thousands times that much on a series

of intravenous chelation treatments...
