Long Awaited PROOF of the effects of MERCURY!!
The best study I've seen on low level mercury exposure, was the
Seychelles Island study. http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/art...i?artid=365028 This link shows the most negative view of that study I've seen, and it still states low levels are not harmful. |
Long Awaited PROOF of the effects of MERCURY!!
The entire *gang* would like to overlook the FACTS. http://www.fda.gov/ohrms/dockets/ac/...-4218s2-04.pdf Neurotoxic Effects of Mercury in Dental Nurses in Norway I have just posted an incomplete version of what happened at the FDA meetings in September. http://www.mercurypoisoned.com/FDA%2...panel_rejects_... Marie Flowers www.MercuryPoisoned.com God Bless this dear lady. So what? Nobody has ever denied here that mercury is toxic. But these examples involve thaousands of times the doses one could get from amalgams in their teeth, and hundreds of thousands of times the doses one could get from a lifetime of vaccinations. You've been told before, and I know you prefer to ignore or deny it, that THE DOSE IS THE POISON! In anwer to your *So what?* So-- this shows the FDA knew the facts. They rejected them. I have been rold by the *gang*. This is thier standard and OLD excuse. The facts of low levels of mercury. That YOU and the *gang* have been told many times. Research in molecular biology has elucidated mechanisms that may underlie the toxic effects of mercury. Studies of the effects of mercury on the immune system in rodents have enhanced knowledge of the mechanisms whereby mercury affects the immune system. Clinical studies of occupationally exposed employees have objectively confirmed subclinical influence of mercury on the immune system at low levels of mercury exposure. The thyroid has been identified as the target organ for the toxic effect of mercury in occupational exposure to mercury vapour in low doses. Clinical studies of the effects of mercury on occupationally exposed workers, using modern diagnostic methods, have elucidated the connection between dose and effect. They have also identified and quantified neuropsychological symptoms at low exposure levels. Relation between symptoms and mercury concentrations in saliva after chewing. The Tübingen amalgam study could establish in the especially examined group of 21-40 year old persons a statistically significant relation between mercury levels in saliva and symptoms. Only symptoms which are characteristic of subacute or chronic mercury exposure in the low-level range were studied. Low-level chronic exposures to mercury may affect the peripheral nervous system resulting in polyneuropathies (reduced sensory and motor nerve function) and neuropsychological effects (visual alterations, sensory loss, stress) (ATSDR 1989); these effects correlate to tissue levels of 20 to 40 µg/g. Neuropsychological effects were also reported by Smith et al. (1970) for occupational exposure to mercury levels of 0.1 mg/m3. Mercury concentrations below this value did not appear to cause observable effects. Kishi et al. (1993) reported that neurobehavioral and motor function effects persisted in ex-mercury miners more than 10 years after cessation of exposure. Once inhaled, elemental mercury is mostly converted to an inorganic divalent or mercuric form by catalase in the red blood cells. This inorganic form has similar properties to organic mercury. Small amounts of non-oxidized elemental mercury continue to persist and account for CNS toxicity. Elemental mercury, as a vapor, which escapes from fillings, penetrates the blood-brain-barrier and enters the CNS, where it's ionized and trapped, attributing to its significant toxic effects http://www.floridalcv.org/FLCVEdFund...ct_of_dental_a... Environmental Effect of Dental Amalgam Mercury is one of the most toxic substances commonly encountered, and according to Government agencies causes adverse health effects in large numbers of people in the U.S.[1] The extreme toxicity of mercury can be seen from documented effects on wildlife by very low levels of mercury exposure. The average amalgam filling has more than ½ gram of mercury, and has been documented to continuously leak mercury into the body of those with amalgam fillings due to the low mercury vapor pressure and galvanic current induced by mixed metals in the mouth. 1. Hg plasma concentration correlated with no.of amalgam fillings. http://tinyurl.com/cdb0 2003 2. Correlation between number of fillings and salivary Hg. http://tinyurl.com/cgs 2000 3. The amount of organic and inorganic mercury in paraffin-stimulated saliva was significantly higher in subjects with dental amalgam fillings http://tinyurl.com/cgs1 2001 4. Mercury vapour release increases with chewing, with absorption and uptake by the brain and kidneys. http://tinyurl.com/cczd 2002 5. Amalgam causes nerve cell toxicity in culture. http://tinyurl.com/ccyo 2003 6. Plasma concentrations of mercury before and after treatment supported the metal exposure to be causative for the ill health. http://tinyurl.com/ccyr 2002 7 None of the materials tested consistently prevented microleakage. http://tinyurl.com/cfcg 2002 8. In neither of the nonamalgam groups was this [wastewater] limit exceeded, but 20.5% in the amalgam group exceeded the limit http://tinyurl.com/ccyu 2002 9. I-Hg levels in placenta increased with an increasing number of maternal dental amalgam fillings (p 0.001)... a substantial fraction of maternal blood I-Hg, probably as Hg(0), reached the fetus. http://tinyurl.com/cgrz 2002 10 Evidence of a pro-oxidant role of the amalgam Hg chronically released in saliva. http://tinyurl.com/cgrv 2002 11. Mercury released into air from dry abraded amalgam was shown to be above the recommended industrial limit http://tinyurl.com/cf7j 2002 http://www.chem-tox.com/pregnancy/mercury.htm Low Level Mercury Causes Behavior Problems During Pregnancy Subtle behavior problems were observed in mice offspring exposed to a single low level mercury dose. In summarizing the results of their study, the researchers stated, "This hypothesis generating study showed highly significant correlations between mood scores and most measures of low level Hg (mercury) exposure. The specific mood measures most associated with Hg exposure were tension, fatigue, and confusion. The strength of these associations suggests that mood should be included for investigation in future hypothesis-testing studies..... Among the cognitive and motor function tests, only the digit span and simple reaction time (nondominant hand) scores were associated with any measure of exposure...... Overall, and despite the small size of the study population, this investigation found some evidence of adverse preclinical effects at mercury doses averaging 36 ugs/l in urine. The mood and symptom results of this study agree with prior evaluations of both high and low urinary mercury doses. These preliminary survey findings support a critical evaluation of the adequacy of the 50 ug/g creatinine biologic threshold for mercury proposed by the World Health Organization This is the first U.S. dental study to detect potential behavioral deficits at such a low level of exposure. A larger and more comprehensive study is required to accurately determine a biologic threshold of adverse central and peripheral nervous system effects for elemental mercury." Drs. Diana Echeverria, Nicholas J. Heyer, Michael D. Martin, Conrad A Naleway Depart. of Environ. Health, Univ. of Washington, School of Dentistry, Univ. of Washington Neurotoxicology and Teratology, Vol. 17(2):161-168, 1995 Dopamine Uptake in Brain Cells Changed By Methylmercury Attention Deficit Disorder children were reported in other headings in this book as having altered dopamine levels. Several compounds, including alcohol, have been shown to alter dopamine levels in test animals. Now, researchers at Duke University Medical School have shown that even very low levels of methylmercury result in dopamine and norepinephrine brain neurotransmitter changes. |
