Over the past ten years, there has been an increase in the understanding of how our health is affected by the daily exposure to toxins. Some of these toxins specifically affect nerve cells and these are called neurotoxins.
Many illnesses can be caused by, contributed to, or exaggerated by neurotoxins. Illnesses can include Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and autoimmune diseases including Multiple Sclerosis, allergies, autism, depression, and learning disabilities just to name a few. Fatigue, depression, insomnia, memory loss and blunting of the senses are common early symptoms of many of these diseases.
US FDA website:
The first full paragraph under the heading “Potential Risks” states:
“Dental amalgam contains elemental mercury. It releases low levels of mercury vapor that can be inhaled. High levels of mercury vapor exposure are associated with adverse effects in the brain and the kidneys.”
The World Health Organization (WHO) has also stated that there is no safe level of mercury exposure. Even if enough mercury hasn’t accumulated in the body to the point of causing a symptom related to a disease, that doesn’t mean you are not going to eventually feel the negative effects of it. In addition to mercury and metal exposure through dental work, we are chronically exposed to many other neurotoxins through our environment, including dioxin, formaldehyde, insecticides, PCBs and wood preservatives. Our food and diet are another source of neurotoxin exposure including aspartame and artificial sweeteners, food coloring, fluoride, as well as methyl and propyl parabens found in cosmetics. In order to restore health, the mechanisms of the body that clear the toxins must be supported and the toxins will then slowly be released.
The first step in restoring health is to remove metal sources. Mercury-amalgam removal from the teeth alone will seldom result in a total restoration of health. However, when mercury is removed, the body starts to more effectively eliminate all other neurotoxins. The body’s own elimination process can then be assisted with additional therapies such as colon hydrotherapy, various forms of massage, lymphatic drainage, acupuncture, detoxification saunas and mineral and clay baths. During the detoxification process the body must also be supported with high quality organic and raw foods, supplements and immune boosting therapies such as IV Vitamin C. As a person moves through this healing process it is also important to nurture and support their emotional and spiritual aspect, through body-mind therapeutics such as yoga, bio-feedback, Zero Balancing and psychotherapy.
There is no one approach for every person and it is important to seek out highly trained and licensed dental, medical and holistic practitioners who look at each individual as a unique being, listening to their stories to help provide an integrative healing plan. Next month we will explore Holistic Dentistry and mercury removal.

Yes, I agree
The writer of blog.grotonwellness.com has written a superior article. I got your point and there is nothing to argue about. It is like the following universal truth that you can not disagree with: There are no standards I will be back.

I am to a great extent impressed with the article I have just read. I wish the author of blog.grotonwellness.com can continue to provide so much productive information and unforgettable experience to blog.grotonwellness.com readers. There is not much to tell except the following universal truth: Life is an Excrement sandwich, the more bread you have, the less excrement you have to eat. I will be back.

Thanks for reading the article on the site. The Medical Doctors at Groton Wellness practice Functional Medicine where the doctor learns and understands the patient via one or more appointments and tests and then provides a treatment plan after understanding the patient. It is dangerous to provide specific guidance without first gaining that understanding of you. It is recommended that you consult with a functional medicine doctor first, and then receive input to your question. If you would like to meet with one of our doctors, you can contact us at: http://www.grotonwellness.com/About_the_Center/Contact_Info/
Is there a store nearby that would also sell the product so I didnt need to have it shupped?
Stumbled into this site by chance but I’m sure glad I clicked on that link. You definitely answered all the questions I’ve been dying to answer for some time now. Will definitely come back for more of this. Thank you so much
Thermo Cleanse,

This is one technology that I would love to be able to use for myself. It’s definitely a cut above the rest and I can’t wait until my provider has it. Your insight was what I needed. Thanks
Take a look at this site I will definetly use it when we have an outsourcing project.

You’re right on the money with this post, keep it up!
Came across your blog when I was searching bing I have found the bit of info that
I found to be quite useful. You can visit my site about benzoyl peroxide
Thanks
OK cool to see- informed comments are always helpful! Blessings.
You are a very smart person!
I enjoyed reading your interesting yet very informative insights. I am looking forward to reading more of your most recent articles and blogs.
Great post full of useful tips! My site is fairly new and I am also having a hard time getting my readers to leave comments. Analytics shows they are coming to the site but I have a feeling “nobody wants to be first”.
Writing is a talent that you surely have. All your great work is clearly evident in how you state yourself through writing. Your amazing talent will always be thought of.
I agree with the author that we need to share the knowledge we gain!. . . . . .
Recently, I didn’t give so much thought to writing comments on blog entries and have left comments even less. Checking out your insightful page, will probably encourage me to do so more regularly.
This is my third visit to this blog. We are starting a new initiative in the same category as this blog. Your blog provided us with important information to work on. You have done a marvellous job.
While this subject can be very touchy for most people, my opinion is that there has to be a middle or common ground that we all can find. I do appreciate that youve added relevant and intelligent commentary here though. Thank you!
