   @gledalac1979

   Yeah, I would agree with that…….

   I would say that virtually all fish probably have atleast some trace of mercury in them……..but you are much safer eating fist low on the food chain……

   I eat salmon and quite a few Sardines……..Sardines are an brilliant and convenient source of EPA and DHA, about 2 grams per 3.5 ounce tin……..

   Salmon is OK…..just make sure you stay away from Bass, Swordfish, Tuna, Shark, and all the other predatory fish……

   Best of Luck!!!

   @gledalac1979

   I’m sure of it…….the mercury poisoning usually manifests itself as symptoms that Conventional Medicine names something else like Dementia or Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s………..

   Some Researchers performed gave a monkey and a sheep some dental amalgums back in the late ’80′s or early 90′s and I’m pretty sure one or both of them died………on the monkey and sheep autopsies, they had huge amounts of mercury throughout their entire systems…….

   @ChiefClickClack

   I am on a fish diet , about 90% salmon. Is it right that Salmon is a low food chain fish that feeds on algae so it’s safe from mercury ?

   “mercury is the 2nd most common toxin known to humans other then Plutonium”

   Are you having a laugh? any modicum of credibility this guy had is derstoyed by this asinine proclamation @ 1.42

   All those books and you can’t look at a periodic table?

   Pu belongs to the Actinides which, barring Thorium and Uranium do not occur in nature.

   The omega 3 from Flax and Hemp are in different forms than fish oil; they are shorter chained fatty acids called ALA…….Rats and other mammals can convert ALA into the longer chained fatty acids EPA and DHA

   the problem is that humans can convert literally NO ALA into EPA or DHA

   EPA and DHA are the fatty acids that our brain needs for healthy function

   The omega 3 that you get from fish oil has high contents of EPA and DHA; some brands are better than others; you get what you pay for

   Am I incorrect, or do Omega fatty acids from plant sources like flax or hemp get absorbed by the body to a far lesser degree, thus making fish oil far superior?

    I was 14 years ancient when I got 8 metal fillings in my mouth The year I also developed OCD, Depression and Chronic Anxiety. I am hoping to get my fillings out and learn how to detox. I reckon Mercury may be the contributor… What do you reckon?

    ALA chelation at every 3 hours for three straight days is the only thing that worked for me. It’s Andy Cutler’s Protocol.

    oh and by the way, imo this guy looks like his all kinds of messed up, i dont reckon the mercury is out of him yet, he could pass for the mad hatter

13. fultonreed99 10/08/13 12:58

    

    the problem is in 10 years someone will come by the side of and disporve what this guy is saying. all i know is life finds a way.

    I used to drop things like drinks because my hands would retract.

    Indeed I have been exposed to Mercury at toxic levels but I heard that Zinc, and Iron can help eliminate it from your body.

    I am perfectly healthy but I sushi more often, and I reckon that is excellent for the brain its nearly like a balance of intake.

    I wouldn’t recommend eating Seafood every day, and I reckon your body can dispose of Mercury if given spaced time

    stuff like Chlorella chelates heavy metals from your body….. and its a super food too… like Spirulina (i reckon they’re both algae). But if u want mainly heavy-metal chelation then take Alpha Lipoic Acid (Thioctic Acid) with food.

16. marek0086 10/08/13 14:12

    

    the FDA is not going to look after u…. i can tell u that right now!

    U have to do the research yourself.

    Thye largest source of mercury is leaking from your so called “silver” dental fillings. They are really 50% mercury. Every time you chew on silver fillings, some mercury gas is unrestricted, goes to your lungs and the blood carries it all over your body. I got mouth cancer from leaking dental fillings. I healed it with anti-fungal herbs, organic sald, cruciferous veggies, advanced energywork I do.

    Fish have emrcury in them. So don’t eat fish.

    Omega oils are found in far higher amounts in flax seeds and walnuts.;

    Flax seeds and walnuts are miracle foods. They cure parkinsons, alziemhers, arthritis, cancer, impotance.

    I have a question about the high carbon chain fats derived from algae for vegetarians.

    I have seen a bottle of this stuff in the store and I recall it said that it was mostly DHA with a very minute percentage of EPA the other high carbon chain omega 3 stout. In fish oil these two fats are usually much more balanced. Is here a excellent source of vegetarian EPA and what does it do for you? Is it for the brain like DHA?
