“Let food be

Dentistry
You have
done everything you can to have a healthy diet, healthy lifestyle and an
optimistic outlook on life. Yet you still feel tired, more than you
would expect, then maybe this is an area you have overlooked?
The
controversy over the use of mercury amalgam fillings has been going on
ever since these were introduced in 1833.
Some
countries have banned the use of mercury in fillings,
Mercury is
a highly toxic metal. One atom of mercury is sufficient to kill one cell
in your body.
When you
start a raw food diet, particularly if you are doing a lot of juicing,
which typically you would be, then it is possible that this might leach
more mercury than normal from such fillings.
If you do
decide to have such fillings replaced, then the removal process itself
ought to be done with great care by somebody who has the right
protective equipment and really knows what they are doing

also includes some links for flouride-free dentistry.

"Our Mission The goal of our Campaign for Mercury-Free Dentistry is to
phase out the use of amalgam, a 50% mercury product. We aim to:
* Educate consumers about the use of mercury in dentistry so they can
make informed decisions
* Stop dental mercury pollution
* Protect consumers – especially vulnerable populations such as children
and the unborn – from exposure to dental mercury
* Empower dental workers – dental assistants and hygienists – to protect
themselves from mercury in the workplace
* Promote access to mercury-free alternatives to amalgam"

Huggins
Applied Healing "Many people have been told their health problems are all in their
head because their symptoms or diseases have no medically known cause or
treatment. Dr. Huggins has discovered that dental toxicity due to
mercury in amalgam fillings is the cause of many of these unexplained
diseases and symptoms. Other standard dental practices, such as root
canals, have also been shown to contribute to many health issues for
which the medical community has no explanation."
Holistic Healing Web Page "An often overlooked, but extremely important source of toxic
material is the mercury from silver [mercury] amalgam fillings. Some
people who are aware of the situation are confused by the mixture of
information available. Unfortunately, statements from dental trade
organizations and on a few poorly-researched news reports have muddled
the situation."

Petric - Longevity Strategist "Mercury Amalgam Fillings: The No. 1 Brain Cell Killer
If you have ever received amalgam fillings, otherwise known as dental
amalgam, then you may be at risk for mercury poisoning. These fillings
contain heavy metals such as silver, tin and copper but they also
contain 50% pure mercury, which is an extremely toxic heavy metal."

flouride-free online source about flouride
"Hundreds of brave dentists speak out against water fluoridation. It
takes a special kind of humility for a medical professional to admit
that something he or she was taught in medical school, and has long
since clung to as fact, is actually false."
