Mercury and Detox
Ever wondered what those mercury fillings do to you? Check out this short video, from a laboratory at the Universiy of Calgary, which shows actual footage of damage being done to brain cells exposed to Mercury.
Mercury vapor is highly permeable and it will go through your skull bone like a hot knife through butter, and it will stay there firmly bound to sulphur proteins in your brain, causing damage to the microtubules that nourish your brain cells. This film makes it easier to understand exactly what happens to your brain cells when they’re exposed to mercury, making it easy to understand why mercury has been linked to a host of harmful reactions like autism, heart disease, Parkinson’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Infertility and many more.
Your brain and body can be exposed to toxic mercury through a number of other ways as well, from getting a flu shot to having a dental filling. Studies have found people with amalgam dental fillings can have mercury vapor concentrations 10 times higher than those in people without them. Also, simple activities such as chewing gum, drinking hot liquids and brushing teeth can further increase the release of mercury.
If you choose to take out your fillings - make sure you give your body a detox as well. Wheatgrass is one of the best detoxes you can give yourself.
