        A month or two ago, I saw a podcast with Ari Whitten and a holistic dentist. She, the dentist, had serious health issues resulting from overexposure to mercury. And something she said about tooth fillings clicked. I had been blaming long-term COVID for my current issues. As she was speaking, I remembered that I had my old fillings removed just two weeks before COVID. She said having your mercury-containing fillings removed improperly (no protection and the dust goes into your body) is worse than keeping them in your mouth. Who’d a thought?

        I just found out my sister may have ovarian cancer. I told her that every reputable herbalist I’ve ever talked to recommends doing what the doctor says, then help the body recover with herbs afterward. She goes in for the biopsy tomorrow. As we were chatting, I told her about the mercury issues. The she told me she had all the mercury taken out of her mouth years ago, or so she thought. However, a cap fell off recently, and she saw the old black mercury filling underneath. So the dentist didn’t take it out, just covered it up. She didn’t see the need to get it taken care of right away, but it was shortly after that she started bloating from a fast-growing tumor. No proof the two are connected, but…..

        I ordered Liver Support and Blood KLNZ for her. I can’t find it right now, but I vaguely remember that she should wait until after chemo, right? I read through the Cancer Lesson PDF again and am anxiously awaiting the video. Is there anything else we can in the meantime?

        Thank you:)

          Update: It’s worse than expected, but the tumor is gone and she survived. Is there anything she can take while on chemo? Thanks:)

            Wishing you strength and grace as you go through this challenge with your sister.  I had Immunity Support, Blood KLNZ, and Nutritive ready for my father-in-law as soon as he was done with chemo.  But not during, per Doc’s education.  Wild blueberries, cilantro and spirulina/seaweeds may help with detoxing the heavy metals from her body.  Cilantro is a bit odd in a smoothie, but doable.

              I wish you the best supporting your sister during this difficult time!

              I had a dentist when I was in my twenties that decided to try and fill my mouth with mercury fillings when the insurance companies started to cover dental care. I had a mercury amalgam removed in a very early pregnancy and I miscarried 2 weeks later. In my heart I know it was the mercury.

              Later I met a naturopath who told me take homeopathic Mercurius sol. 9ch (5 granules) before and after any dental work. I also held my breath and closed my eyes because NONE of the dentists followed the correct protocol. That really helped me.

                Thank you, Dee.MW. I remembered that too, but couldn’t find the lesson again. Do you remember which one it’s in?

                And thank you CarolAnn. I will definitely look into the homeopathic remedy. I’m sure we both still have plenty of mercury in our bodies.

                  You are welcome – The lesson was part of the Diseases and Herbal Interactions Unit, but it looks like the specific module on cancer is off-line for an upgrade.  I can hear Doc saying “poison yourself like you mean it” when it comes to cancer – then take the tinctures afterwards so they aren’t working counter to the chemo.  The heavy metal cleanse is part of the Herbal Cleanses Unit.

                    Great. Thanks so much for the information. I’ll take a look, and the cleanse kit has been delivered.

                      Another update. The doctor said he got it all and that she could take any supplements or herbs she wanted. She is scheduled for 1 chemo treatment every 3 weeks for 6 times.

                      Since she is only having chemo once every three weeks, would she be able to take nettle seed between? Does anyone know how long she’d have to wait after chemo for the herbs not to interfere?

                      Thanks:)

                        Hi Glenda

                        I’d discontinue herbs several days before chemo so they don’t interfere.

                        A week after chemo, I’d do Liver builder and Liver Support and Kidney Builder.

                        After all the chemo is done, I’d do an Herbal cleanse protocol.

                        Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
