Mercury: Influences on Body Chemistry

Kaslow

Paraphrased from the book "Surviving the Toxic Crisis" by William R. Kellas

"Mineral Displacement:  mercury (usually with a +2 charge) can grab the biological spaces that should be filled by another essential mineral. As a result, there may be plenty of the mineral found in the blood, urine, hair, etc. but due to the displacement at the active site, mercury interferes with the activity of the essential mineral.  Symptoms that can be caused by a deficiency of minerals displaced by mercury include:

• Magnesium: irregular heartbeat, chocolate cravings, cramps, PMS, receding gums, elevated blood pressure, etc.

• Iron: anemia, fatigue, etc.

• Copper: anemia, thyroid dysfunction, impaired digestion, liver enzymes are all copper-dependent, easy bruising, etc.

• Zinc: anorexia nervosa, loss of taste and smell, loss of appetite, low libido, PMS, impaired growth, acne and other skin disorders, etc.

• Iodine: thyroid dysfunction, thickened bile, etc."
