What happens to the mercury poisoned chronically ill person and what are their nutrition requirements?

On the one hand, these are both great questions. I can only respond with what my own experience has been. Thus, please note this caveat.

My experience comes from having been chronically ill from mercury poisoning and then subsequently acutely ill from all the complications that go along with such long term poisoning.

My physiology got so bad that, in truth, I felt there was virtually nothing left of me. At my worst, I could still think, but barely. Making decisions became difficult in the extreme. Why? My physiology was just that messed up due primarily to malabsorption/gut problems.

You are what you eat and what you absorb. You aren’t what you don’t eat nor what you don’t absorb.

You see, I went 40 days without successfully digesting a cracker.

Once I was properly diagnosed as having chronic mercury poisoning of the gut, which took three years and the introduction to a Doctor that knew the cause of all my trouble, I was put on a nutrition regimen that was specific to my needs.

One thing I had to do was take about 2 grams of Hydrochloric Acid with each meal. If I didn’t do that, I didn’t digest my meal, pure and simple.
Following are some of the other nutrition supplements that I took:

• Vitamin A
• Vitamin B
• Vitamin C was basically intolerable to my system, so I avoided it like the plaque for a while. Now I take a little.
• Multi-Vitamin and Multi-Mineral Supplement from a particularly good source.
• SSKI (or Potassium Iodide)
• B12 daily

Trust me, their were other nutrition supplements (vitamins) that I took, but without digging through my file, I don’t recall them all.

The main point of all this is to mention that if I didn’t take one of the things that the exceptionally knowledgeable Doctor advised me to, I suffered ill consequences. In other words, these things were not optional for me.

The even bigger main point is that your physiology may require some of these things or more or different nutrition supplementation to get by (and hopefully thrive).

When you look for a Doctor that can help you deal with chronic illness, especially illness that has turned acute, find one that knows physiology like the back of his hand. It will make all the difference. At least it has for me in my pathway to wellness.
