@joedavid I found this detox protocol online that explains a lot, but I haven't done this. I do know you have to be careful detoxing with N acetyl cysteine (NAC) because if you get too much, it causes things to get worse. That causes excessive thirst and can affect the gall bladder and there is often a warning not to use it if you have liver or gall bladder disease or stones, and it may take days to get back to normal because the body has to process all of this and you can't just excrete the extra. It is a precursor to glutathione in the body which is a major pathway for detoxification. I had all my silver dental amalgams removed by a biological dentist who was sucking out the mercury vapors as he drilled because drilling them releases a lot of mercury. I do see an integrative type doctor who is an environmental allergist, and he told me that my silver fillings were causing my Hashimoto's thyroid condition. Prior to the removal of my old fillings, the test on antibody levels against my thyroid could not be read as it was so high that it was off the charts. After removal, they were at the low end of the scale, still there, but much improved, and my thyroid function has improved since. You can also look at companies like Metagenics who create medical food for reducing inflammation and detoxing that has a lot of things in it. Read the ingredient list to get an idea of what helps. Here is the link that I found. I knew about chlorella and cilantro as good for detoxing. You do have to detox slowly because you will be releasing a lot of stuff that was stored away for safe keeping all at once. The body does this with toxins and stores them in tissues to reduce over all exposure. http://customers.hbci.com/~wenonah/new/9steps.htm
