Amalgam fillings are a cheap way to fill cavities and have been used since I was born, at least 57 years ago. I know because I had some put in when I was a child. We have now come to understand that they can cause mercury poisoning which over time can create lots of health issue. In fact I believe my trip to the dentist 6 years ago that created my heart issues was compounded by the fact that my amalgams were removed, and bacteria as well as mercury was allowed to go into my blood stream and did damage to my mitral valve that created cardiac arrhythmia, or AFIB. Dentists are now recommending antibiotics and are safely removing amalgams, understanding just how important it is.
There is a patient who had severe mitral valve prolapse. A 35-year old banker who could not walk more than 20 metres without getting cyanosed, blue from lack of oxygen. Five cardiologists and surgeons suggested open heart surgery immediately. He decided against the surgery and went to the DaVinci Clinic in Cyrus to see Dr. George Gorgiou. A central part of the pathology was severe mercury toxicity of the heart tissues - he had 14 amalgams removed that were poisoning him in the process which caused severe mitral valve prolapse.
With the correct treatment not only did this man survive but nearly a year later he is now wind surfing 12 miles in competitions and came first two weeks ago in a race with two others. He is working a full life etc. The patient actually has registered with the Guiness Book of Records as being the only man on this planet who has completely healed of severe mitral valve prolapse without open-heart surgery. Dr. Georgiou is a naturopathic doctor whose speciality is chelation of heavy metals. His program includes Chlorella and other modalities.
While dentists don't all agree on whether amalgams are safe or not, they are required to treat them as hazardous waste when they are removed from teeth, so you be the judge.

Smokers also tend to have high cadmium and arsenic levels as well as other heavy metals and they can also be gotten for municipal water supplies and wells.
And, all of have as much as 1000 times the levels of lead in our bones due to lead contamination from the air we breath to lead paint we may have been exposed to.
According to Scientific American, physicians for decades have grappled with ways to block further tissue damage in patients who suffer heart attacks and are effected by mercury poisoning. They have tried everything from drugs to cell therapy—all with little luck. But promising new research indicates that a biogel made from seaweed may have the healing powers that have thus far eluded them.
Some of the principle healing agents in seaweed are magnesium, iodine, and selenium.
Dr. B. West says, “Iodine supplementation may be the missing link in a good percentage of heart arrhythmia cases, especially atrial fibrillation. The body needs adequate stores of iodine for the heart to beat smoothly. After close to a year now of using Iodine Fulfillment Therapy, I can attest to this fact. Most of the stubborn cases of cardiac arrhythmias and atrial fibrillation that we were unable to completely correct with our cardiac protocols have now been resolved with adequate supplies of iodine added to the protocol.”
Please take a few minutes and view the information and videos below. If you suspect that you might have symptoms of metal toxicity, many health practitioners recommend removing amalgams and replacing them with gold crowns or other non toxic options and then taking a program to chelate out heavy metals from your tissues.
Iodine, selenium and magnesium from seaweed and chlorella as well as EDTA, all have the ability to chelate mercury, lead, cadmium and arsenic, as it does other inorganic toxic trace minerals. They can together even remove Percolate, the halogen like rocket fuel polluting half of North America.
Scientific Studies Concerning Mercury Dental Fillings
Prepared by the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology
www.iaomt.org
1. Mercury is a very toxic substance-- more toxic than lead, cadmium, or arsenic.
2. At least seventeen separate studies have confirmed that dental patients absorb a daily dose of mercury derived from their mercury fillings. Mercury is not rendered chemically inert in dental fillings.
3. On average, eighty percent of the mercury inhaled into the lungs is absorbed into the bloodstream.
4. The general population in America absorbs more mercury from dental fillings than from any other source. Studies demonstrate that two-thirds of the mercury absorbed by non-occupationally exposed populations is derived from amalgam fillings.
5. The mercury absorbed from dental fillings exceeds published government toxic thresholds for mercury.
6. A specific no-observed-effect level (NOEL) cannot be established, meaning that no level can be established at which mercury does not adversely affect the body.
7. Peer-reviewed studies have established that adverse health affects have been associated with mercury vapor derived from amalgam fillings.
8. Mercury is transferred from a mother to her fetus during pregnancy and is transferred post-natally through breast milk.
9. The developing fetus and young children are disproportionately affected by mercury exposure, because many aspects of development, particularly brain maturation, can be disturbed by the presence of mercury.
10. Mercury derived from mercury fillings may impair kidney function.
11. Mercury has been linked to Alzheimer’s Disease.
12. Mercury has been linked to Parkinson’s Disease.
13. Mercury released from dental "silver" fillings provokes an increase in mercury and antibiotic resistant bacteria in oral and intestinal flora.
14. Animal studies demonstrate that exposure to mercury vapor can induce
autoimmunity.
17. IAOMT's science contributed to Germany's ban on mercury fillings for women and children.
18. Mercury vapor released by fillings is routinely measured in dentists' offices.
19. There is more mercury in dental fillings than in all other products sold in America.
20. The U.S. government has never tested mercury fillings for safety.

The program I use for myself and would recommend to others to remove heavy metals is this...
Yaeyama Chlorella - 4 capsules with meals - 3 times a day...
EDTA - 1 capsule twice daily between meals idealy...
Maxi Health Kosher Seaweed Supreme - 1 capsule twice a day with meals...
NSI Synergy Supreme? Multi-Vitamin Version 3 -- 360 Capsules - 4 with each meal - 3 times a day.
