Those who are sensitive to sulfur are sensitive to chlorella. I don't believe it mobilizes any more than other high sulfur foods. I'm under the impression that you are still mercury toxic, so if you took chlorella for years and did great on it then what exactly did the chlorella do? For the price, it doesn't seem like it does very much IMO. Some fresh dark leafy greens have probably just as much nutrients.

Does chlorella help chelate mercury

Excerpted from 'Treatment Options for Mercury/Metal Toxicity in Autism and Related Developmental Disabilities: Consensus Position Paper', AUTISM RESEARCH INSTITUTE, 2005

"Chlorella/other algae: Often touted as an herbal remedy for mercury poisoning, chlorella has been claimed to be able to bind to heavy metals. However, in a study recently conducted at the Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine46, they administered 10 g/day of chlorella to 15 people with mercury dental amalgams. The chlorella had no effect on fecal or urinary excretion of mercury after 3 or 8 days, based on a comparison of pre and post levels. Therefore, we do not recommend the use of chlorella."

The above study was directed by Dr. David Quig, metal toxicology expert at Doctors Data Inc., Illinois.

He says don't use Cilantro because he is unaware how it works? I used the Cilantro and it was not scary at all!


One of the big problems with cilantro is that the amount of the natural chelating agent can wildly vary, as with any natural product. I could eat cilantro most of the time without a problem but had a few times when it made me feel wickedly poisoned. This is why most herbal extracts are standardized because all natural herbs can vary greatly in there active compounds.


Diet is extremely important, no doubt about it. I was against chelation for many years but now strongly believe in it after doing it for over 6 months and seeing the results when nothing else seemed to offer lasting improvement.
Thank you for your reply, and maybe I am still very toxic with Mercury! I used it for the nutrient but went to Spirulina now as it is better IMO for blood sugar and food cravings, it works better for me. Garlic messes me up after just a few days, why?

I am against Chelation as you can tell as I read so many times it made some near crazy! I don't want to go there, although I have been close from certain things from Selenium to Kelp and Garlic!!! Maybe I am still more toxic than I would like to admit.

Did you read my posts on Fructose Corn Syrup containing mercury? I have used Gatorade for years and other things which contain a high amount, so the higher amount in my body from that could not be good at ALL! I just poisoned myself worse IMO and thats why I react to these things now. I would try ALA but I am not ready yet IMO, I need to kidney flush and build up minerals first IMO (That plus get rid of High FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP which is flat out poison to us).


Refer to my thread I made on fructose and it can help you and me and his brother etc., why Chelate when we intake Mercury daily? We need to clean up our diets first and get strong, then Chelate.

Thanks for your post though. I can't believe we have to do this crap and go through it, then again YES I CAN believe it being this world is a joke and lies to me.

My dentist said to take the Chlorella before I got the tooth out and then after, shows you how much he knew about mercury when it comes to those things (Holistic one at that). I have my teeth out now and still taste metal in my mouth from time to time especially when cleansing. You find out year after year you can use less and less and become worse off it, it sucks.

In Sanskrit, tulsi means literally "the incomparable one" and has been revered since ancient times. Tulsi, the holy basil, is said to have grown at the site of Christ’s crucifixion and is associated with St. Basil’s feast.
