At the end of May 2005 I went up to Redcliff to have an initial consultation with Eric who did various tests and it was determined that he would take me on as a patient. One of the tests was a check on the level of mercury vapour in my mouth. This showed that the level was higher than what is considered a safe level in the work place and after a bit of chewing this level increased 10x for a while. Ever since I was a child I have had a massive amount of amalgam in my mouth and on top of that when I lay down to sleep my nasal passages tend to block so during sleep I breath through my mouth. So you can see that during my life time I have inhaled an enormous amount of mercury vapour. After the radio active elements mercury is probably the most poisonous substance on earth and amalgam is 50% mercury. For more details on the danger of mercury in the mouth go to Eric’s website. and also have a look on the net as there is plenty info about it. Another good resource is the book ‘A Mouth Full of Poison’ by Dr. Myron Wentz. Probably the most convincing demonstration can be viewed at this site , the video is called ‘Smoking teeth = Poison gas’.
Amalgam is also known as silver filling but that is a total misnomer as it is silver in colour only and it contains no silver at all. The use of the “Silver filling” term is an obvious attempt by the various dental associations to hide the fact that 50% of amalgam is serious poison.
Finding a time slot to do the treatment needed was not easy as due to the success that Eric has with treating various diseases he is in great demand. In the mean time I had to provide blood and urine for high level tests done by the ARL Pathology lab in Melbourne. One of the pages of that report is here so you can get an idea of the type of information provided. I also had to start on increasing my body pH levels as tests had shown that my body was acidic; on occasion the on-rise urine pH level would be as low as 5.2. Correcting the pH level to a neutral state of about 7 is an essential first step to healing as an acidic body has a problem healing itself. We all know what acid does to things and your body is no different. Only your stomach with its special lining can cope with acid, the rest of your body does not.
Eric got me to record my pH level of saliva and urine first thing in the morning and also mid morning and I had to submit the results on a regular basis. After a few months the pH settled down and I now only check it from time to time as it does not vary much. Now you might think that there is not a lot of difference between a pH of 6 and 7, but please note that the pH scale is logarithmic. This means that a pH of 6 is 10x more acid than a pH of 7 and a pH of 5 is 100x more acid than 7. Drinks like Coca-Cola have a pH of about 3 and so are 10000x more acid then the neutral pH value of 7, definitely to be avoided. So you can see the importance of getting your pH right.
In late July 2005 Eric managed to squeeze me in and I went to his clinic in Redcliff to have dental work done, also known as TDR (Total Dental Revision). The reason for the TDR is to replace the amalgam (of which I had heaps) which causes mercury poisoning and to remove root canal treated molars. In my case the mercury poisoning was the most likely root cause of CLL; for that matter it is probably for other chronic diseases as well. For instance the first incidences of MS occurred not long after the introduction of mercury in tooth fillings. Interesting enough, in the state of Queensland at least, as soon as the amalgam is removed from your mouth it is to be treated as a hazardous substance. Try and figure that one out; as long as the amalgam is in your mouth it is supposed to be safe but take it out and all of a sudden it becomes a hazardous substance.
Please note that I am not saying that all cases of CLL are due to mercury and/or root canal treatment. This is clearly not the case for I know from the various CLL forums that some people with CLL have never ever received dental treatment.
The reason that a tooth receives root canal treatment is that they are dead and dentists try to preserve the tooth. But dentists are the only medicos that I know of that leave dead parts in your body. Sooner or later those teeth will get infected and now the immune system has to fight the infections on a continual basis. Have enough of this and the immune system gets overwhelmed. That then leaves the way open for diseases that normally get dealt with by the immune system to take hold and bingo, you’ve got a major problem. To learn more about the problem with root canal treatment get hold of the book “Root Canal Cover-up” by George E. Meinig or read an interview with him and Dr Lamarche at this site.
Over a period of 3 days I had 5 root canal treated molars removed and the amalgam in the rest of them replaced with a modern non-poisonous compound. Eric showed me some of the removed molars and his prediction that they would be infected proved to be true. A few of them even had big black infection spots on them. Also as per his prediction and to my amazement there was no pain from the extractions, just discomfort from the swelling. While I was at Eric’s clinic I received a number of vitamin C drips to kick start the healing process.
Yet another thing I received was a document titled Free Radical Therapy. This 70 page document not only contains the background information to Eric’s approach to healing, but more importantly the state of my health and what to do about it. In addition to strict dietary instructions it also lists the detailed results of the blood & urine tests and these showed that quite a number of the indicators were outside the reference range; go to this page to see one of the pages of that report. You can see how many indicators are outside the reference range. On the basis of those indicators something like 30 different supplements were prescribed in order to put my body in the best possible condition and give my immune system a chance to heal my body.
A lot can and should be said about diet as it is a vital part of the restoration process and for that matter for keeping the body healthy. Very basically I had to go on a high protein, low carb diet. Also had to remove all sugar and processed food from my diet and try to eat organic food. Sugar is also known as ‘white death’ and you can find a list of 76 health problems with sugar on this website. Processed food contain chemicals and are acid forming, hence they need to be avoided. “Life without bread” is a most interesting book written by Christian B. Allan & Wolfgang Lutz, worth getting. There is a lot more to it than that but it is a bit beyond the scope of this story to go into details. I need to mention here that I was told that Eric is unable to help vegetarians and vegans as they are missing to many things in their diet. You can have a look at my diets ‘do and dont’s’ in this Excel file.
All this is so different from the way the oncologists go about things. They watch your condition get worse and worse and when it is bad enough they give you poison (also known as chemo) that destroys your immune system. If you think about it this is surely a bizarre approach since we are created as self healing entities. God gave us immune systems to keep us healthy and it is only when our immune systems are overwhelmed by something that we get sicknesses and diseases. So rather than let chemo destroy our immune system (and possibly die as a consequence of that) it makes much more sense to strengthen the immune system and give it a fighting chance to rid our bodies of sicknesses and diseases.
