Guest guest Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 Thanks Ingrid, I did not know about the mercury. Funny how everything has drawbacks. Even chocolate is processed with lead deposits and we just can't keep up with it all. At least I can't.Ingrid Mager-Renault <wolfiebear wrote: Exactly, not to mention that most kelp these days has some mercury in it, and for those of us who are mercury toxic and/or are very sensitive, this can be deliterious. ~inga On Feb 2, 2006, at 11:15 AM, Joseph Toman wrote: > Personally, Kelp should NOT be taken by everyone as it depends on your > thyroid; whether it is overactive or underactive.� Then one should > look into Dulce.

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 I once read an article on mercury, and other heavy metals, present in kelp, dulse, and other seaweeds, that says that they are not really toxic for you. The toxic metals you “imbibe” in your water, bath, manufactured foods, etc, have one ionic charge. By itself they are toxic. The plant materials that pick these up in the water they exist in, according to the article, have the opposite ionic charge. The metals are themselves effected by the plant. When the metals are ingested in this way, they actually help to take the oppositely charged metals out of your body because of the different charge. Anybody have any other information on this sort of chelation in relation to the metals in otherwise non-manufactured foods?
