Catty is right!....I did read that Chromium is good for removing metals from the body, like aluminum...don't know about mercury....talk to your doctor about taking this twice daily (200mcg each,) and seeing if it helps on your levels...also quit eating the foods that contain it. Readers digest did an article on this not that long ago. Mid summer I believe. Might want to see if you could find that. Didn't sound like any fun to have this problem. drs

As you may know mercury is a cumulative poison. The best way to get rid of it is by Chelation Therapy. You can do it both with oral supplements or with an IV therapy administered by a Doctor using EDTA. The IV method is about 8 times faster and is more regulated but is costly. In my area an IV treatment cost $110. Some Insurance Companies cover it.
Mercury is a cumulative poison and there is nothing that keeps it from reaching the brain and it can really mess up your immune system as well a other organs!! It is considered a factor in many auto-immune diseases.
Mercury is found in most large fish, soil, water supply, fungicides, pestacides and in many areas ever rain water and the food chain. It is also present in a wide variety of products that we use daily-- such as mercury dental fillings, cosmetics, ink used by printers, batteries, some paints, latex, some plastics, solvents. Mercury is even more toxic than lead.
It can cause Kidney, heart and respiratory problems as well as many---many other symptoms.
Signs indicating Mercury toxicity include depression, confusion, irratability, behavioral and hyperactivity. Allergic reactions, and asthma can also be caused by mercury.
Just recently a news program said the rain water contained higher concentrations that is recommended by the FDA in the entire state of South Carolina -- so you're not as immune to this as we think. If it is in the soil and rain water of the state I live in it is probably present where you live also???
