Hot Topics - Mercury Amalgam

Just 2 years ago we learned that so-called "silver" fillings contain between 50% and 70% pure mercury. Now that we've had them replaced and our health has improved *** dramatically ***, we wonder where we would be and how our lives would be different had we known that there was a highly toxic metal placed in our mouth.

Introduction

This is the personal account of the ongoing experiences of Russ Tanner and Laura Clement of Herbal Bookstore, Inc. and their battle with (what they believe to be) mercury poisoning caused by the toxic element mercury (Hg) leaching from their "silver" dental fillings.

Many of the early sections of this story were written on July 19th, 2000 when we first decided to document this subject. Following that, the story is written in a documentary style log (like a diary). We did it this way hoping that it will help make sincerely clear the rewards and challenges that we faced after getting our amalgam fillings removed.

It is our belief that mercury poisoning from "silver" (amalgam) fillings is a major, if not primary cause of cancer, multiple sclerosis, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, depression, birth defects, Altzheimer's, and numerous other immune and neurological diseases.

We are not doctors. We simply believe that, after considering the our personal experience, viewing the extensive information available, digesting volumes of research, reading books and testimonials alike, and considering all we know about mercury, that common sense dictates that this is the case.

We sincerely hope this log will assist people in making educated personal decisions about their health, and perhaps, help some get their life back.
