The Test
Mercury Test kits detect the presence of mercury ions to a high degree of accuracy, in the urine or saliva.
They can also be used to detect Mercury in most clear liquid medium so you can test a wide range of materials in the environment as well as your food and local water. It's easy to Test.
Why should I test if I have Mercury amalgam fillings.
Mercury amalgam fillings
For the last few decades, many dentists and scientists have been becoming increasingly concerned about the mercury that dentists use to prepare the metallic, silver-coloured amalgams (fillings) that patch ourdecayed teeth.
The amalgam is a mix of 50% mercury and 50% powdered alloy containing mainly silver with copper, zinc and tin in varying proportions.
Anecdotes about mercury's toxic effects have been common.
Mercury is a powerful toxin. Once we were reassured that it was safe to use in the mouth because after it had set the mercury was locked in. Now we have evidence that this is not so and that mercury leaches out of fillings. It is absorbed through the oral tissue and is swallowed and inhaled.
It passes into the blood and is carried throughout the body across the placenta into foetus and into breast milk.
WHO 2005 Report: Mercury in Health Care
Despite claims to the contrary by defenders of amalgam, the official position of the World Health Organization remains that of the 1991 conference: dental amalgam is the greatest source of inorganic
mercury for the general population, outside of industrial exposures.
In March 2007 in court the US the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) abandoned its long-time position for amalgam, five times admitting in its court brief that it the FDA doesn’t know if mercury fillings are safe or unsafe.Moms Against Mercury, et al. v. FDA
For them to admit this takes some doing and points to the mounting scientific evidence against mercury amalgam fillings.Also it creates an astonishing gap between FDA’s position (doesn’t know if it’s safe) and its policy (may be implanted into anyone without even warnings)!
Scientific studies are now demonstrating significant relationships between mercury and many diseases.
A systematic investigation by the Swedish Associationof Dental Mercury patients (Tf) looked at 25 studies of 5281 patients and concluded that “Most studies give very consistent results:
there is hardly any medical treatment which gives so positive results on so many health problems as amalgam removal.”Read the Paper
In a study of 465 patients diagnosed with chronic mercury toxicity 32.3% had severe fatigue, 88.8% had memory loss and 27.5% had depression. Safe removal of amalgam fillings with appropriate treatment
resulted in significant symptom reduction reported by the subjects.Read the Paper
In another example, a 1999 study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology,
the concentration of mercury in the heart muscle tissue of patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy was 22,000 times more than that in unaffected patients.
But remember you need to test to see if you have a problem (not everyone does) and have them removed safely.
We have a FREE fact sheet on recommendations for the SAFE removal of your amalgam fillings.
Take it to your dentist and discuss with them about how your fillings will be removed safely
PLEASE DO NOT HAVE ALL YOUR AMALGAM FILLINGS REMOVED ALL AT ONCE IT MAY NOT BE THE BEST FOR YOUR HEALTH.
TEST FIRST and if there is a problem follow our guide lines for their safe removal.
