Guest guest Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 From what I've read, ALA (alpha lipoic acid) is used to chelate heavy metals in the body (like mercury). It crosses the brain barrier, so if not taken properly, it will redistribute the metals in the body instead of having a chelating effect. It shouldn't be taken without a doctors supervision. It's widely used to cure vaccine injured kids with autism and ADHD, etc., but there aren't that many doctors trained in ALA chelating. One should look for a homeopath/natural doctor.

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Ohhh, I feel your pain! It's ridiculous how ignorant most doctors can be after 10 years of going to school, isn't it? - " Alobar " <Alobar Thursday, July 09, 2009 1:46 PM Re: << >> Alpha Lipoic Acid and Explicit Memory > Doctors are too expensive for me.

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Doctors are too expensive for me. When I could afford a doc, I never found one who knew anything about vitamins or supplements.

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Alobar, No suprise there! After all, Drs. are specialists in Disease/Allopathy, not Health/Wellness. Ergo vitamins, minerals & supplements, being proactive/health, would be out of the scope of their training/belief system. A while back, there was a vitamin manufacturer that marketed thier products using the point that Drs. have a less than average lifespans. ( " Dead Drs. Don't Lie " ) And Drs are who direct the public's health concerns?! Yikes! Where/when did the general public get the idea that Drs. are about Health when they're about Disease? TV? Movies? Associations? -richard- Alobar alleged: a doc? never found one who knew anything about vitamins or supplements. Alobar .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Like ALA, iodine also " knocks loose " heavy metals such as mercury and lead, and halides such as bromide and fluoride. Another substance is needed to attach to these elements that have been knocked loose - namely chlorella. Also said to chelate (remove from the body) mercury and other heavy metals is cilantro leaf. There are natural preparations made from both of these substances, chlorella and cilantro leaf.

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2009 Report Share Posted July 13, 2009 Katerinka, Taking 1gram per day of chlorella sounds sufficient, and it might be a good idea to add cilantro.
