Mercury-based silver fillings can cause serious health conditions. Dr. David Kennedy, a popular critic of conventional dentistry and Jonathan Landsman, brought out into the open the scientific proof about this claim. Do you have mercury fillings in your mouth or you know someone who does?
Fact About the Amalgam Fillings
Here are some facts about mercury fillings:
1. The Biggest Source of Mercury Is in the Amalgam Fillings
Believe it or not, but mercury absorption from amalgam fillings is 4 times higher than from fish consumption. That is determined in 1991, based on numerous studies in Sweden and by the review of the World Health Organization of inorganic mercury.
Recent studies gave confirmation to these studies from 1991. But the absorption is not the same for everyone; there is a difference from person to person.
2. Amalgam Fillings May Cause Damage to Brain in Children
According to the world’s famous mercury researchers, the mercury in the amalgam fillings may permanently damage the immune system, brain, and kidneys of children.
3. The Filings Release Highly Toxic Elemental Mercury
Primarily when you absorb the release from the fillings, you absorb it as a highly toxic elemental mercury vapor. In fact, the most toxic substance known is actually the mercury.
4. The Fillings Can Lead to Gastrointestinal and Neurological Problems
Recently a study was completed on the same topic. In fact, it is the first biggest epidemiological study of mercury and its adverse reactions.
Based on the symptoms, there is a link to mouth disorders, memory disturbances, gastrointestinal problems, concentration problems, lack of initiative, sleep disturbances, bleeding gums, and restlessness.
5. The Fillings Are Unstable Since the 1970s
In the last couple of decades, there is a new type of mercury fillings. This new type is none-gramma-2(high copper) fillings which are actually far worse than the older types because they release even more mercury.
So, if you want to know more about the instability of these fillings, we recommend reading the article by Ulf Bengsston.
6. Amalgam Fillings Also Cause Alzheimer’s Disease
Dr. Boyd Haley known and respected researcher led a team of scientists that conducted a study about Alzheimer’s Disease and the mercury. In this study, rats were exposed to levels of mercury vapor that were suited for them.
The consequences were tissue damage in the same form as that of Alzheimer’s Disease. In addition, the team did the experiment one more time, and it ended up with the same results. Dr. Boyd Haley is remembered as saying that he and his wife are taking out their fillings.
