I have loads of mercury, which I am battling to get rid of now. I have low thyroid problems, and interestingly mercury poisoning symptoms overlap strongly. Not surprising since mercury poisons the enzyme that converts thyroid hormone into it's active available form in the body. Sorry, that's my hobby horse.

My dentist agreed to stop inserting the stuff, denied the irony that although any leftover crumbs from a filling procedure had to go in the toxic waste bin, it's not toxic in your mouth!! Breathing all those Hg fumes have obviously affected his thinking ;)

It's correct that cremation releases mercury from corpse's fillings into the atmosphere. If you think about it, pure mercury is already molten metal at room temperature, so it doesn't take much more heat to make it vapourize. People living downwind of a crematorium have higher levels (even allowing for the number of fillings they may have!) than those who live further out. Sorry, can't remember where I saw that ( too many fillings), but it was something reputable.

You have to laugh, the alternatives make you so mad!

Imagine if the "powers that be" admitted that mercury amalgams were harmful. Imagine the panic. Imagine the hysteria. Imagine the anger. Imagine the lawsuits.

If something is so bad for us, why do so many of us have mercury fillings? We were told it would not harm us, by people we trusted.

Definitely get any metal fillings out of you teeth, if you have them.

What on earth is taking this knowledge, and reversing the mercury to a safer product? To much talk and not enough action.

We need to fend for ourselves. Suggest to your dentist, not to use any product that will harm in any way. If your dentist does not apply your knowledge and wisdom, I would suggest you find a homeopathic, naturalopathic dentist.

I did not know cremation releases mercury from fillings into the air and water.
