modified citrus pectin

Hi Folks,

I was wondering if anyone here has any experiance with modified citrus pectin? I've read good things about it and would like some feedback. I read was that it worked best when taken with alginate. Any comments are appreciated.

Eddie

Pectin absorbs bad things in the intestines like Algin does. It's not as broad-spectrum as Algin, but it does help.

Hi Russ,

I purchased the alginate but my kidneys couldn't handle it. Would using the modified citrus pectin be my best option for chelating heavy metals? I've read it does remove HM's but in a slow and moderate fashion. Also, how do I prevent redistribution or reabsorption? I also read the chlorella is a great HM detox but can raise one's iron levels to high. Any comments are appreciated.

Sincerely,

Eddie

Greetings Eddie! I am putting the little lite on, so Russ can come reply if he thinks something would help. As he said before, the 'modified citrus pectin' can help. It's not the best choice. THE DMSA or DetoxPro, as listed in several earlier posts are best for removing heavy metals from the body, in particular mercury.
As far as the best to be absolutely certain, is to have the filling replaced, or remove the amalgam tooth. I understand that you are avoiding this choice. So am I, for issues from my brain surgery. But, I know that one day, there will be no other option, if it continues to cause the candida, and rashes, etc.. The DMSA (1-100mg caps 2x's daily),along with the Algin , 2 caps twice daily have helped me a great deal.

From the discussion you two had earlier, I'd say if you feel comfortable about it, give it a try. When you first told me about the chorella, I was concerned having read the information in the Culter's Protocol Book, also posted in back issues of this forum. Russ did some testing on this. I'm not sure of his conclusion, except some numbers. Would you mind telling me where you might be getting the 'modified citrus pectin', I wonder if it's available in most health food stores? Every little bit helps, it seems to me. I sincerely hope you are feeling better. Blessings! Abigail

Hi Abigal, I hope you are doing well. Since I limit my sodium intake and amount of sodium in alginate is to much for me can I open the capsule and pour about 1/3 of the capsule into a glass of water and take it that way? I am scheduled to have that big amalgam filling removed tomorrow. What supplements should I take prior to the removal and afterwards. I read that taking activated charcoal and chlorella prior to the removal is recommended and that afterwards to do the same plus vitamin C. Any comments or suggestions are appreciated. Hopefully I will hear from you before 7 am tomorrow. thank you and God Bless. Eddie

BLessings EddieG!

Congratulations on your decision to have that amalgam removed. The only thing I am aware of to take beforehand is the Vitamin C.
I had thought that chlorella is not wise, as it is hard on the stomach. Perhaps Russ can advise you on this. Maybe I can catch him before you go to the Dentist.
BRAVO! Let me know how you do. God bless you and may He lead your Dentist in the procedure.
In Christ, Abigail /

Eddie,

According to NSP's Health Sciences department, 1 capsule of Algin contains approximately 50mg of sodium, which is not much. I also suspect that much of that may be bound to the Algin and not available for absorption, but I'm not sure on the exact amounts.

If you were worried about the sodium, perhaps you could increase potassium intake to compensate. That's what I do. I also take 2500 mg of Taurine each day to keep electrolytes in the heart muscle and it has made a tremendous difference.

Eddie,

I think taking chlorella and activated charcoal the day of the removal is a good idea. Just be sure that you tolerate chlorella before you take it... very important.

I hope it goes well.

I've taken chlorella in the past and didn't have any issues that I could remember. What are the symptoms people might get from it's use?

This is the day after removing my amalgam filling. What supplements should I being taking daily and for how long? I am currently on MCP, one tablet of charchoal, some chlorella and 5,000MG of Vitamin C daily. Will try the Algin this week and see how my body reacts. The first time I took it my lower back was hurting. Not sure if the Algin was the reason or something else. Thanks Guys!

Hi Abigail and Russ,

I forgot to mention that I woke with a severe headaches today. I have had it all day. Not sure if all those supplements I loaded up on affected me. Like I mentioned, I took charchoal, lots of chlorella, MCP, and Vitamin C, Not to mention all the other supplements, like zinc, selenium, Milk thistle, Vitamin A, Vitamin D-3, potassium, magnesium, manganese, etc.

Congratulations EddieG!
I am so happy for you to have gotten this behind you. Since this is the day or so after the amalgam removal, that might be the reason for the headache. It will pass. I'm sorry, however, because I deal with those on a frequent basis. I feel your pain.

Well, to tell you the truth EddieG, I'm not sure about all those different supplements mixed together. Be sure to have a bite of food with them and plenty of water. I'm glad you are going to try the ALGIN again. From what Russ tells us, the sodium alginate is not considered a problem from this supplement. He also mentioned trying Potassium (I see you take that now), which by the way, we use frequently in place of Salt, in our foods. It's in the Herb, Supplement,etc Department in most grocery stores. It's Sodium-Free, but tastes just like salt. It's called "NO SALT".

I'll turn the little light on, in case Russ wants to give his advice. He takes several supplements, with good results.
OK, my friend, thanks for the update. God Bless you, EddieG. Abigail~~

Hi Abigail,
Thank you for the reply. Yes I take a lot of supplements. I try to spread them out or mix them with food. I took the Alginate this morning in the name of Jesus of course, and then took the potassium 5 minutes later. I felt terrible last night. I had a lot of inflammation in my eyes especially. I put some drops in my eyes and that didn't work. I finally resorted to cold compresses and that worked. Here's looking to a better day.

Eddie

Hi there! I'm so glad you took that step and had that amalgam removed. Now you no longer have to worry about if IT is causing some of your ailments.

I take several supplements as well, since most all soil is depleted from minerals, calciums, etc,. unless of course they are organic. Try to be POSITIVE. (Even in this dark world.) If you belong to JESUS, and have invited Him into your heart, it will be somewhat easier, however we must remember that even our Lord was persecuted and nailed to a CROSS to save us from our sins. You will do so much better now, my friend. You have been most kind. God Bless you! Thank you for your kindness and patience as we all walked through this. Jesus is as close as the mention of His name. Take care, yes, stretch out the supplements, etc, and above all, "DFTSYP". (Don't forget to say your prayers). {If the compresses help your eyes, it's all natural, then go for it.}

Thanks for the support Abigail. I will keep you updated. God Bless you.

Blessings to you, EddieG! "I declare in the Name of all names, Jesus, that you are healed!" Thank you for all your kind words and encouragement for others who also are going through the amalgam/mercury poisoning/needing chelating/ possibly removal of teeth, or replacement of Amalgams to the new composite fillings. Have a great life, my friend, and let us know if you need anything else. I'm glad you are working the ALGIN back in to remove all mercury! I, personally can take 2 caps, 2 times daily. But it is helping immensely WITH THE DMSA from VRP or IAS, as mentioned in several posts earlier. Take care.

I will look into that DMSA this weekend. Take care.

Hi Russ, I started taking the "Taurine" as you had suggested and I noticed that after a few weeks of taking it I would feel dizzy when getting up. Do you have any idea why Taurine would cause that? thanks

Eddie

Hi Eddie, Stopping by to check on the forum. I take Meclizine HCI 12.5 mg USP / ANTIEMETIC for dizziness. It really has helped me. Hope it helps you as well. And as Russ has stated, we use potassium instead of salt on our foods. It can be purchased in most grocery stores in the Spices department, named, "NO SALT" / Sodium-Free Salt . It even tastes as good as salt.
EddyG, if you don't need to take a certain supplement, etc, or it causes side-effects, just stop taking it. We all are made differently. I've read several other posts and people said they can not take Chollela. Blessings!
