Synopsis of IV-C Mercury Detox Program
By John L. Tate, D.D.S.
....................................................

STEP 1:
Remove Patient From Further Exposure - (air, water, food; but do not replace dental mercury amalgams until step 3)

STEP 2:
Dietary and Lifestyle Corrections

These steps may vary somewhat in accordance with the patient's risk assessment, but in general this program alone will serve to balance body chemistry. Special considerations are necessary for acid, balanced and alkaline metabolisms. The Body Detoxification Program with the approval of your physician, will reduce food sensitivities, increase the absorption of nutrients, remove mercury through the bile, and allow smoother transition towards self-healing.

DAILY:

A. Chlorella (Pyrenoidosa) capsules - Begin with 2 capsules taken with meals, 3 times a day for the first week (total of 6 capsules/day). Increase to 3 capsules 3 times a day (9 total/day) for maximum effect. 1-800-858-5198 Nature's Balance

B. Garlic Allium Complex - 2 capsules with each meal (6) per day. (Kyolic) 1-800-323-3842 Ultra Life.

C. Vitamin E - 600 i.u. per day (GNLD). Health Food Store

D. Vitamin B Complex - 50 mgm per day. Health Food Store

E. Selenium - 400 micrograms (ug). Health Food Store

F. Vitamin C Flush for Bowel Tolerance - Begin 1 week before IV Vitamin C for maximum effect of tissue saturation. Take one teaspoon of Sodium Ascorbate crystals (4,000 mgm) in your favorite juice every 1/2 hour on empty stomach until diarrhea occurs. It may vary from 20 to 100 grams. If diarrhea does not occur in 2 hours increase dosage. Our clinical observation is that sicker patients require more oral Vitamin C. (See special instructions).

G. Acidophilus Complex - 1 capsule to be taken with cultured diary products.

H. 3 Servings Cultures Dairy Products:

1. Live Yogurt (no sugar)
2. Soft Cheeses (Havarti, Monterey Jack, etc.)
3. Cottage Cheese
4. Buttermilk/Kefi

I. 2-3 Eggs - Per day with butter - poached egg with butter and garlic.

J. Digestive Enzymes - 2 tablets per meal (Betagest: 1-800-323-3842) increase if needed. Ultralife

K. Body Detoxification Manual - Begin with activated charcoal- herbal formula, (LBF #2. 1-800-323-3842).

L. General Guidelines:

1. 50% of Food should be raw - include sprouts (beans & alfalfa), vegetables, fruits, and sprouted grains.
2. Add raw onion and garlic to soups.
3. No fried goods, no sugar, caffeine, pork, tuna, salmon, swordfish (mercury); no cow's milk.

Note: Man is the only animal on Earth that eats cooked food - all other animals eat raw food. The key is enzymes are plentiful in raw food.

4. Turkey instead of chicken; beef to be cooked no higher than 130°F to preserve enzymes and increase absorption of protein. Use Knox's gelatin in soups (100% protein) if tolerance for beef is low.

M. Immune Modulating Options:

1. Immune Modulation through Beta-1, 3-D glucan 1-877-407-3999
2. Sauna (dry heat - to exit mercury from skin)
3. Aerobic exercise 3 times a week.
4. Rebounder (trampoline for lymphatics)
5. P. Chinese Parsley (Cilantro) herbal extract that removes mercury from CNS according to Dietrich Klinghardt, M.D., Ph.D., 1-800-323-3842.

STEP 3:
Replace Dental Amalgam Fillings According to Huggins' Technique:

Administer IV-C* during each daily session of removal.
25-50 grams in Ringer's solutions administered at 60 drops/min (3 Hours)

* Available from Merit Pharmaceutical Company @ 1-800-421-9657

STEP 4:
Continue Dietary and Lifestyle Corrections:

Continue for a minimum of two weeks for the purpose of research, and for six months to obtain optimum results. The correct diet and food supplements for your metabolic type (vegetarian, balanced or carnivorous) can now be accurately determined by a comprehensive questionnaire, blood work, and self-tests at home. Computer assistance is needed as will as a knowledgeable physician. Call (864) 582-4441 for more details.

Note: The present research indicates five IV-C sessions one week apart for best results with the average patient of heavy metal poisoning - mercury, lead, aluminum, arsenic, and/or cadmium.

Common Detoxification Reactions Immediately Following IV-C (Within first 8-36 hours):

• Headache
• Nausea
• Constipation
• Diarrhea
• Skin eruption

Indicators of patient improvement after five sessions of the IV-C Mercury Detox Program, (6-8 Weeks):

Decrease In:

• Chronic stress and fatigue
• Total serum cholesterol (TSC) levels
• Bowel tolerance to mega dose oral vitamin C
• Hair and Mercury Levels
• Fasting blood cortisol level

Increase In:

• Alkaline phosphatase levels
• Liver enzyme (LDH) levels (which may be due to the effect of Vitamin C alone)
• TSC levels (a transient rise lasting 3-9 weeks, followed by a decrease, is often observed in patients with arterial disease)
• Urine mercury levels (a transient rise followed by decrease)
• Appetite
• Body Weight (muscle, not fat)
• Tooth nerve regeneration and periodontal membrane strength

Positive Changes In:

• The porphyrin fingerprint (currently under development)
• The blood fat profile
• The electrocardiogram (EKG)
• The personality and psychological inventory test
• The white blood count
• The white blood cell differential
• T-lymphocyte count
• B-lymphocyte count

The present research indicates that the attraction of heavy metals (Hg, Ib, Al, As, Cd) to the nervous system tissue including the brain is due to the patient's inability to store these toxic metals in the liver and body fat, the normal deposit area, genetics, diet, metabolic typing, stress, hormone relations, drugs and other environmental poisons play a role in each individual case. The immune system's reaction determines the disease or symptoms each patient presents. Out major objective is to reduce the body burden of these poisons through detoxification and restore health through Immunotherapy and regeneration. An evolving medical-dental protocol using the FDA approved drug, DMSA, for mercury removal is being evaluated for safety and effectiveness.
