CFS or Low Level Mercury Poisoning?
If you have a good diet, avoid obesity and do not smoke, then your chances of good health are greatly increased, as these are very much the senior factors. It is wise to take account of other factors though. We are all exposed to environmental toxins, such as harmful chemicals in the water, on and in our food, and in the air. As well as testing for biochemical imbalances in the system, including deficiences of important nutrients, a nutrition consultant will also check for excess amounts of toxins such as lead, aluminium, cadmium, etc. Even our fillings can cause problems. We would like to draw your attention to an individual case of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS, also known as ME) which was not resolvable by nutritional means alone. This was because the real cause was Mercury poisoning, a form of toxicity which has very similar symptoms to CFS. If you have had a lot of dental fillings with silver/mercury amalgam, and you suffer from chronic fatigue, you may have the answer right there in your mouth!
