  • is your assertion that methyl is 17-27 times more toxic ?

    FDA gives no refetrences for the staement that methyl is more toxic.

    both forms are toxic and bio-accumulate. In addition, one is not exposed to methyl ffrom fish 24 hours a day as those with amalgams.

    go here to read of 3 sources (ATSDR and WHO) which state that the main source of mercury in people is from their amalgam mercuryexposure - dot - info/index.php?option=com_k2&v­iew=item&layout=item&id=422&It­emid=241

  • The consumption of fish is by far the most significant source of ingestion-related mercury exposure in humans and animals,

  • @t5e2 your assertion is incorrect.

    Mercury vapor from amalgam is the single largest source of systemic mercury intake: Persons with

    amalgam fillings have an average daily exposure of 3-17 ug of mercury per day;

    Other sources are: Fish 3 ug per day, Water .05 ug per day, Air .04 ug per day. (WHO Document 118, p.36, 1991)

  • @MercuryExposure please link me to that "WHO Document". What is the title of this "document"? can you direct me to a copy of this "document"??

  • @t5e2 sure no problem. you can download that WHO doc, plus the 2003 report which was estimated at even high rates of 1 - 27 micrograms from our the downloads section of our website (on the users tab) mercuryexposure . info/index.php?option=com_rokd­ownloads&view=folder&Itemid=28­7&id=47:world-health-organizat­ion-who

    someitme youtube doesn't allow links in the comments section. Thanks for taking a look at the docs.

  • @MercuryExposure it's actually pg. 26 of that 1991 report. It's a result of a previous study titled "Environmental Health Criteria 101: methylmercury". Mercury in vapor vs. methylmercury please see fda dot gov/medicaldevices/productsand­medicalprocedures/dentalproduc­ts/dentalamalgam/ucm171094.htm­#4

  • Mercury and humans should not mix, no matter the form the mercury is in.

  • Sounds like some cancer studies: "It's very hard to prove, or disprove, cause and effect."
