can selenium detox your body from heavy metals like mercury ???

Answer 1

The following is a list of nutrients that facilitate the removal of heavy metals.

1.N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine (NAC):
NAC forms L-cysteine, cystine, L-methionine, glutathione (GSH), and mixed di-sulfides. Stimulates the body to produce large amounts of cysteine and glutathione, thus greatly augmenting plasma and red blood cell content of both cysteine and glutathione; Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM): MSM, like fresh garlic, provides a bioavailable dietary source of sulfur. MSM exerts a direct beneficial effect in ameliorating a variety of allergic responsees and pain associated with systemic inflammatory disorders.

2.Milk Thistle (silymarin):
Silymarin provides support and protection against liver toxins which can cause free-radical-mediated oxidative damage. Silymarin is many times more potent in antioxidant activity than vitamin E. In addition, it increases liver production of glutathione and protects red blood cell membranes against lipid peroxidation and hemolysis.

3.Chlorella:
Is a food-like all purpose mild chelator of heavy metals; it is a specially processed green-algae type of food that is taken with meals and is quite tolerable and pleasant for many. But since chlorella is so easily contaminated, the manufacturer’s quality control is important. detox The detoxification capability of Chlorella is due to its unique cell wall and the material associated with it. The cell walls of Chlorella have been shown to have three layers of which the thicker middle layer contains cellulose microfibrils. Atkinson et al found a 14nm thick trilaminar layer outside the cell wall proper which was extremely resistant to breakage and thought to be composed of a polymerised carotene like material.....Laboratory studies showed that there were two active absorbing substances - sporopollenin (a naturally occurring carotene like polymer which is resistant to degradation) and the algae cell walls." Chlorella's ability to detoxify the body is very significant because of the large amount of chemicals we are exposed to in today's modern world. This ability to detoxify chemicals is also one of the important differences between Chlorella and other "green" products."


4.Cilantro:
stimulates the body's release of mercury and other heavy metals from the brain and CNS into other tissue. This facilitates the ability to remove heavy metal from the body using other dietary protocols, such as Chorella and other chlorophyll containing herbs such as Nettles and Alfalfa. These herbs aid in detoxifying by denaturing the toxins, protecting and restoring normal cellular functions while promoting elimination. The major constituents of the volatile oils are: myrcene (1.71%), d-linalool (52.26%), citronellol (4.64%), geraniol (9.29%), safrole (2.67%), aterpinyl acetate (1.07%) and geraniol acetate.

A typical dose is orally 6-15 drops 1/2 hr. before or 1 hr. after meals 2x/day. For 5 days. 2 day rest and continue. Or Apply ¼ to ½ dropper on wrists, joints, or affected areas twice a day.

5.Vitamin B6:
needed in the metabolic process that converts methionine to cysteine and then into glutathione. B6 is capable of reducing and controlling the swelling and pain associated with the routine tissue and bone trauma resulting from normal dental operative procedures. You can also use Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P5P), the active form that B6 is converted to in the body. Vitamin B1: is capable of reducing pain that may be associated with routine dental operative procedures. B1 is one of two vitamins containing sulfur, the other is Biotin.

6.Magnesium:
Magnesium availablility is essential for the proper functinoing of our immune system as well as hundreds of enzyme systems critical to human health. Organically amino acid-bound ones are more easily absorbed and are less irritating to the gastrointestinal tract as well.

7.Activated charcoal:
taken immediately with chlorella, 15 minutes before drilling/chunking out amalgam, will bind any swallowed mercury and also prevent recirculation in the liver.

8.Refrain from taking any supplements that contain iron and copper. Mercury amalgam removal alone does not put an end to the mercury poisoning. The mercury which leached from the fillings in the mouth is stored in cells throughout the body and continues to exert its damaging influence. It is not unusual to see patients who have had their amalgam fillings removed and replaced ten to fifteen years prior to testing still having elevated levels of mercury in the body. Once mercury toxicity has been demonstrated, by tests such as high electrogalvanism, high mercury vapor emissions, and/or high mercury body burden, mercury amalgam removal and replacement with alternate, non-toxic materials is the recommended step. Botanical substances to assist in removing the mercury include cilantro and chlorella which are particularly effective.


9.Sweating - The skin is the body's largest detoxiification organs and sweating can help draw mercury from the body. Saunas are a useful adjunct to safe mercury removal because they induce copious sweating. Initiate sweating and increased circulation by exercising 20 minutes three times a day on a rebounder (mini trampoline). Immediately following the exercise, sit in a sauna or under infrared lights (infrared sauna) for up to 30 minutes, then take a cool shower. The temperature from a "low heat" sauna should be between 140 to 180 degrees F. in contrast to the 200 to 210 degree F. for a non-therapeutic standard sauna. The sauna may be followed by a plunge into a bath or under a shower whose temperature is 65 degrees F. Over a period of three to four days, increase your time in the sauna to a total of up to two hours, divided into 30-minute periods with a short cooling-off period in between. It's important to shower and towel dry because the removal of sweat prevents reabsorption of toxins. While doing the sauna program, consume adequate amounts of water to avoid dehydration. this is a minimum of two quarts before and after entering the sauna. Replace your electrolytes lost to perspiration with grape or prune juice and drink vegetable juices to replace calcium and magnesium lost through the skin.

Answer 2

Selenium Mercury Detox

Answer 3

Selenium is an anti-oxidant that can help. People who have cancer always show a selenium deficiency. It's good to take about 100 mcg daily. People who take 200 mcg sometimes complain of body aches and pains. Selenium in mega-doses is a poison so don't go nuts with it. Check at a health food store as there are a number of herbal supplements for Detox.

Answer 4

You really shouldn't take selenium in the quantities some people advise, it's a metal too, but I know a lot of Health books say you should, it's called chelation therapy and supposedy the mercury bonds witht the selinium and is eliminated. Myself I doubt it, but that is just my opinion. Once mercury is in your body, it never comes out. Most mercury poisoning comes from the air or food. If you have taken liquid mercury, fortunatey most liquid mercury is eliminated. The best detox is prevention.

Answer 5

No - but best detox is large doses of powerful super-GARLIC along with megadoses of Vitamin C & amino acid L-cysteine. These will work over time.

Selenium is a vital micronutrient but not a detoxifier in and of itself.

Answer 6

Not by itself. Chemicals working in tandem with other chemicals and in the proper ratios and proportions do work. The proof of this is the human body itself: it is a symphony of chemicals working in harmonies. Go to those medical authorities whose specialties work in this area of medicine. Reading of books alone or listening to lay people is not wise as regards detoxing of heavy metals.

Answer 7

Activated charcoal will bind to countless toxic substances. This is why it is used in industry to control air pollution, as an air purifier, to purify whiskey, for food poisoning, and countless other uses - it will bind with almost any toxic metal or chemical. Charcoal is natural, and completely harmless. Take a capsule of activated charcoal 3 times daily.

The existence of the heavy metals in your or my body is not a question if! It is a fact. Especially if you are over the 50 range. The amount of heavy metals in our bodies can be as high as 2kg. Of course it doesn't accumulated in your legs, but it is spread around our whole body and it is one of the major cause of cancer. Medical clays and Zeolites(clynoptilolites) are the best absorbers of them. --------------------------------------... Only the help of Nature in form of overdose on Vitamins, minerals, certain enzymes and hormones can start the healing process to sick and needy. Anything else - including most of modern Western medicine is just prolonging the pain and suffering.

Answer 9

Selenium is toxic, too. Consult a doctor for heavy metal poisoning.

Answer 10

Never heard of it. Ask a doctor.

Answer 11

best i've heard/used is zeolite. very potent, though.
