@HouseMD and @momopi: Both of you have told me before that:HouseMD wrote: The amount of mercury released by the fillings in a week is about a fifth of what is contained in a single serving of fish. If you're looking to avoid mercury, you're far better off switching to chicken than swapping out your fillings. In fact, mite mercury is released in the removal process than an entire lifetime of leaving the filling in place. Your body can handle a small mercury burden on a daily basis, but the massive quantities you will receive during the extraction process will far exceed your body's ability to cope with mercury, as you'll be getting more than a lifetime's exposure all at once. Removing multiple fillings in the same sitting poses an even greater risk to your health. Basically, leave them in place if you want to be safe, and avoid other mercury sources to decrease your daily mercury burden.
1) Mercury fillings in your teeth only release a tiny amount of mercury each day, far below the safety level.
2) Mercury fillings are ok for general people except for a tiny few who are allergic to mercury.
How do you know this? Who told you? How much research have you done on this? None? Aren't you just taking whatever the ADA (American Dental Association) tells you? If so did you consider that they are covering their ass because if they admitted that mercury fillings had harmful health effects, they'd be swamped with millions of lawsuits?
The thing is, I watched all the documentaries I posted above - the one by CBS 60 Minutes, the one by BBC and the one called "Quicksilver". They were very informative and they all said unequivocably that those two assumptions above that you hold are FALSE! And a LIE by the ADA. Please watch them and you will understand why. Scientists, chemists, metallurgists and experts in metal poisoning DO NOT agree with those two assumptions spouted by the ADA. You should listen to them and understand why. They explained that in reality, there is no such thing as a safe level of mercury. Even the tiniest level can be toxic and cause brain damage over time, which has been proven in X-Rays, which you can see in the documentaries above. And the CBS 60 Minutes documentary featured many women who developed serious illnesses immediately after having mercury fillings installed in their teeth. And once the mercury fillings were removed, their ailment quickly subsided. That CANNOT BE COINCIDENCE. I believe my mom has some neurological damage from mercury fillings too.
So how do you explain all that? How were those women cured, if what HouseMD says above is true? Are you both truth seekers? If so are you wiling to change your mind if the evidence warrants it? Or is your mind made up and your beliefs fixed on this because you're too lazy to think or research?
HouseMD are you asian or white? Usually only asians believe everything the government says, especially spotty organizations like the ADA. White people are better at thinking independently. Asians seem hardwired to assume that whatever organization has authority in power, must also be an authority in truth too, and hence are always right. It's a false assumption of course. But the asian mind is hardwired to think that way, just like ants are hardwired to obey the queen ant and bees are hardwired to obey the queen bee. A few asians though, like me, zboy1, falcon, ethan_sg, and bao3niang are able to overcome this asian hardwiring, but clearly, momopi is not. Everything in his posts indicates that. I wish you guys would learn to use your head more for critical thinking, not just memorizing whatever you hear from organizations that lie.
Anyway, please watch the three documentaries I mentioned above. And let me know if you changed your mind about the safety or mercury fillings. But please spend time doing RESEARCH and not just taking whatever the ADA says on faith. Comprende?
My dentist in Taiwan also told me and my mom the same thing, the two false assumptions above, and I am planning to write a letter to him to explain all the above and get him to watch the three documentaries too, two of which are from the mainstream media even, when it was a little more free to expose scams and hazards back in the 90's, unlike nowadays where they are totally controlled and are now uniform in opinion, just like in China. It's not right for the dentist to be giving my mom false info with false assumptions. My mom has some brain damage I believe, from mercury fillings. She moves too slowly and seems unaware a lot, and doesn't even look both ways when crossing the street. So this is serious business and I cannot afford to take the dentist's wrong info and false assumptions, especially when health and neurological damage may be at stake. Understand?
