New Move by the FDA May Affect Your Health

 

Sometimes, once in a blue moon, the FDA does a

positive thing regarding health. The agency just

announced plans to review mercury poisoning from

dental amalgam. It is especially interested in the

neurotoxic effects of dental fillings.

 

But even more incredibly, the agency is requesting

the attendance of anyone who can comment on their

experience with mercury. In fact, the FDA wants

you to attend even if you have a disability. And

it will make special accommodations if you need

them.

 

This is a rare opportunity for you to make a huge

difference with this draconian agency. Your input

may do millions of Americans more good than scores

of ignorant dentists and " scientists. " If you have

a story about mercury to tell, please forward your

information to the FDA.

 

It's way past time to stop the poisoning of innocent

victims with mercury. Additionally, it will have a

very positive secondary effect. There will be far

less mercury contamination of the environment once

dentists stop using it. Please let the FDA know your

story.

 

If you or someone you know had problems with mercury,

tell the agency. Tell the agency you want the poison

eliminated from people's mouths. It causes innumerable

health problems. And the mercury becomes an environmental

hazard when dentists replace it and throw the mercury

away - or when the deceased are cremated.

 

It's astounding that the FDA will fine a dentist for

improperly disposing of waste amalgam, but not for using

it in your mouth. Please take advantage of this great

opportunity to be heard.

 

If you want to give your comments to the agency, please

send an e-mail to Michael.Adjodha.

 

You may also call him at 301-827-5283, or " snail mail "

him at Center for Devices and Radiological Health

(HFZ-480), Food and Drug Administration, 9200 Corporate

Blvd., Rockville, MD 20850).

 

You know how I feel about the FDA. I know many of you feel

the same. But let's not waste this opportunity by bashing

the FDA to this one man. Please only write to him if you

have experience with mercury fillings. And please focus on

sharing your experience.

 

If you would like to attend the meetings, they are scheduled

for September 6th and 7th at the Holiday Inn in Gaithersburg,

MD. Before attending, please call the Information Line for
