I am not slamming you by any means. I am just saying:
Uranium is a heavy metal which is mildly radioactive, you do not get from cat scans, x-rays etc.
How does watching TV have anything to do with Gadolinium? It is a rare earth metal and is not common.
Mercury (this one is realistic) can come from eating too much Tuna, Lead (also very realistic) can be environemntal and Aluminum is in anti persperants. But what can it hurt going to certified lab? Trust me, I am a chemist, if someone is telling you gadolinium and uranium, that is quite odd.
I see what you're driving at, but...
Back in the 50s and 60s when the American military were developing their atomic weapons programme they detonated around 1,000 atomic devices in the Nevada desert. 184 of these were atmospheric (above ground). With wind-blow, contamination could , in theory, be almost anywhere in the States. So you could well have 'hot spots'...
I have been nurse to families from Nevada. The whole family, spreading generations and family branches have had cancer. They know what it is from.... all the nuclear testing done there.
I also believe it is the cause of the increasing incidents of lung cancer in the USA. Too many cases in non smokers. This stuff blows everywhere and there is no place to run to to hide

I haven't been on the computer lately...just now got on and see a wonderful response from all.....it is good to know there are concerned people who are interested in my health along with theirs and their loved ones....what effect one of us, I'm sure effects us all!. I'm going to try and answer all.....I find this VERY interesting!!!!!! God Bless You All!

This is what the report reads about Gadolinium:
Gadolinium is one of the most abundant "rare earth" elements but is never found as a free element in nature. Gadolinium has no known biological role in humans
Toxicity due to GD is rare due to its poor gastro absorption and there is no information on the tissue distribution of GD. If exposure to high enough doses and/or if absorption does occur, symptoms of acute parenteral toxicity may develop, including abdominal cramps, diarrhea (BOTH WHICH I HAVE HAD FOR 4 1/2 YEARS. (with no known cause from doctors), lethargy (had), muscular spasms (had) and even eventual due to respiratory collapse. (been hospitalized for respiration despression).
I can't tell the difference between the years of being poisoned by Splenda vs. heavy metal poisoning!!!!
GD is often used in alloys, improving the workability and resistance of metal (e.g. chromium, iron). Other technical uses include the phosphors of color television tubes. This is where I thought maybe being home-bound all these years watching T.V. caused this.
It goes on to say...In medicine, Gd chelated with DTPA is used as a non-radioactive contrasting agent in MRI's and has a half life in blood of about 90 minutes...I've had about 4 MRI's.
Someone, I haven't answered yet asked why not use a different lab. I go to the Natural Doctor and they have it already set with this lab. I trust this clinic so I would assume they would have already investigated to see if whether this lab is certified or not that it would be accurate enough for them.
I was kind of wondering about the uranium as well unless you've been to Iraq lately.
I am also wondering about your diet as well. You need to be on a phase one diet in order to starve candida.
Fungus isn't supposed to attack the body until after you die, not while you're still walking around.
The report states this about uranium:
The toxochemical effects of uranium may be more severe than the radiochemical effects for U238 (what-ever that is). Uranium has four valences (3,4,5,or 6), can combine with phosphate, citrate, pyruvate, malate, lactate, etc. in body tissues and usually is transported in the blood as carbonate complex.
Uranium that is not excreted in urine can accumulate in bone and kidney tissues as well as in the spleen and liver. In excessive amounts, it can be nephrotoxic. Inhaled uranium accumulates in lung tissue. Fatigue is the most common symptom associated with chronic, low-level (natural) uranium exposure (DDI observations).
I can't tell you enough the hell I have suffered the last past 10 years because this -ing FDA isn't doing their job....and nobody's complaining to them....I just don't get it. ....And all this time I was going through all of the Splenda poisoning, the doctors would be telling me it was all in my head and that I needed a psychiatric evaluation for munchousen disease (I don't know how to spell that one!). I would cry because I was so sick and the doctors would tell me I was "JUST DEPRESSED". I could just scream!
Anyway, getting back to the uranium. The report goes on to say:
Uranium is more common than mercury, silver or cadmium in the earth's rock strata and may be present, at low levels, in GROUND DRINKING WATER.....need I say anymore?
How long did the doctor say the therapy was going to be for? Have you started? Is it around $150.00 per session?
The info that I got from my doctor states that anywhere fro 10 to 30 treatments are needed @ $75.00 each 2 - 3 X's a week. They recheck my metal poisoning after treatment 7. I will let you know how it is going but I have to tell you a secret....I am also doing oral chelation to speed up the process. I need this out of me A.S.A.P. because of how sick I really am. I wouldn't suggest to do that for anyone else.
Sounds like a nice little earner for the therapist...
If he is right, a detox diet - plenty of fresh, organic fruits and vegetables is your first step.
Leaf coriander, or cilantro/Chinese parsley, is a powerful natural detoxifier. Excellent at mercury elimination especially.
I Thank You for the info. I had already have tried detoxing for over a year. I've done Dr. Schultz's colon cleanse....(loved it), Dr. Schultz's liver and gall bladder cleanse, 10-day lemon fast, Milk Thistle up the ying yang, activated charcoal, bentonite clay, supplemented with every known herb and vitamin and mineral....nothing was helping for the heavy metals!!!!!
Fungus isn't supposed to attack the body until after you die, not while you're still walking around.
Believe me....after 10 packs of chlorine a day for 4 years (Splenda), your body has decaying organs all over the place.....I can easily see where I have fungus in my blood. My body stank so bad...I kept telling the doctors...and they wouldn't say a word. I think the only reason God has me living today is because of my mouth.... I won't shut up and I want the world to know what I've experienced so they don't have to experience the death of living.
Yes, and Spirulina is also a good chelator of heavy metals.
I've been on Dr. Schlultz's "Superfood" for 3 months which has the greens necessary and I have already felt a huge difference in my energy. As bad as I still feel, I take the Superfood with Nature's Path "Trace-lyte", and it had helped me TREMENDOUSLY! The problem being is that for 3 months, taking this, apparently didn't chelate anything....maybe if I took it longer it might have results....?????
Iodine detoxes mercury... and if you do iodine you should also be taking selenium as a matter of course.
Personally I would not do the IV chelation unless things were very critical. I will say this, a friend did a couple of sessions back in the 1970's and we saw what looked like a few tiny metal flakes floating in the urine. Could that be possible? can't say for sure. He also said he experienced what felt like an opening in his brain... from increased circulation? The doctor he went to used thermograms of the head to determine the need for increased circulation in the head for which chelation therapy was a cure... I saw a number of before and after thermogram photos, and it seems to have worked with reported mental improvements. Although the doc did treat heavy metals he also believed that in his anti aging protocols unloading the vessels that fee the brain was critical to maintaining clarity and this is how he did it at that time.
Anyway. there can be a nunmber of downfalls with IV chelation therapy and unless things are critical I would not do it... but I know you have been suffering for a long time Peanuts4u... so it may be the best course of action. But you may not need to do all the recommended treatments and finish up at home with other methods.. its is rather spendy.
The thing we need to remember to do is to do things consistently that chelates metals out. Not to wait till we are really sick.
I hope this helps to clear out your liver Peanuts... maybe this is the source of that problem.
I think you should research further the benefits of chelation.
This is very interesting.
The info I received from the Natural doc from an author "Frances Fitgerald"
states:
Heart health; When chelating agents such as EDTA pluck the calcium from artery plaque, the clogging material falls apart and flows out of the body through the bloodstream.. CT..(Chelating Therapy) helps widen the arteries and improve blood flow....resulting in a 75 to 95% success rate in improving blood flow in patients with clogged arteries.
Alzheimer's Disease;
CT helps remove aluminum from the brain (contributing factor to Alzh).
Also acts as a gentle de-blocking agent for clogged blood vessels in the brain and the rest of the body!
Cancer;
CT helps control free radicals, which are linked to the cell destruction that can lead to cancer.
It goes on and on about the benefits....I think you should explore more!
I understand the benefits fully. But not everyone tolerates chelation therapy well. Blood tests are needed to monitor mineral levels and remember I was addressing specifically IV chelation.
7. Toxicity. Dr. Paul Eck found that intravenous chelation therapy always unbalanced the sodium/potassium ratio on a hair mineral analysis. Inverting the sodium/potassium ratio on a hair analysis indicates that chelation therapy probably damages the kidneys and perhaps the adrenals in some way. This is what led Dr. Eck to shun the use of this interesting therapy.

I didn't mean that you don't understand it...I just thought that it was beneficial...I, also, was addressing IV chelation. If calcium and magnesium(potassium?) is off balanced, shouldn't supplements relieve that?...I'm just saying...as far as damaging the kidneys...when chelation just started out, they were experimenting with too high of dosage...and yes, mostly the elderly do need to be watched but every time I go for a IV chelation they take a urine test first to see how my kidneys are functioning.
Chemist here I strongly suggest you gate a test a certified lab. Gadolinium, uranium, thallium Unrealistic unless you work around those.
I just want to verify.....this was a 'provoked' heavy metal test. What this means is I had a CAEDTA (I think this means calcium EDTA) IV chelation before I collected the urine for 6 hours. This gives a more accurate test (I think) of what is in the body due to making the heavy metals come out so they can test it.
I have gone through 20 IV chelation and will be getting the results on Monday. They only 'urine provoked' urine test after each 10 IV treatments. The 10th treatment only slightly reduced all the heavy metals and I was really disappointed in the results. I've read in a chelation book that it takes 3 months to really feel better after IV treatments. I do feel better but still have a ways to go. I also read that sodium EDTA chelation will cure diabetic gangrene, emphasema, reduce wrinkles, along with taking plaque out or your arteries and opening up your circulatory system along with helping any heart disease...it is truly amazing!
