Why do Quackwatch / Dental Shills Keep Lying about Amalgam Dangers????
A vast amount of the Propaganda and other disinformation on the
internet centers around the Healthfraud/quackwatch front groups ... it's time to expose their lies: http://www.altcorp.com/DentalInformation/salivahg.htm Field study on the mercury content of saliva P.Krau and M. Deyhle* , K.H. Maier, E. Roller, H.D. Wei, Ph. Cldon** *Universitt Tbingen, ** Institut fr Organische Chemie http://www.sevaonline.com/English/tubingen.htm Abstract 20 000 subjects were enrolled in a large-scale field study to determine the concentration of total mercury in saliva. A statistical relationship was found between the mercury concentration in the pre-chewing saliva and chewing saliva, and the number of amalgam fillings. The mean number of amalgam fillings was 9 and the median mercury concentration was 11.6 µg/l in the pre-chewing saliva and 29.3 µg/l in the chewing saliva, which is considerably higher than reported in most previous publications. Extrapolation to the uptake of total mercury per week has shown that the provisional tolerable weekly intake (PTWI) value of the WHO is exceeded in at least 30% of the subjects. Keywords amalgam, mercury, saliva, chewing, binding form 1. Introduction In the second half of the last century, the "first amalgam war" was fought in the USA for various reasons 1. The aim was to prevent charlatans also using this simple technique. The amalgams used at the time released very high quantities of mercury and "miracle cures" in patients with chronic diseases after removal of the amalgam fillings raised doubts about the material. A short "second amalgam war" was then started by the German chemist Alfred Stock 2, who drew attention to the fact that mercury is continuously released from fillings and may possibly be associated with a number of disease symptoms 3. The discussion of amalgam was renewed in the 80s when manifestations of the corrosion of amalgam were investigated 4-12. Ionic binding forms (Hg2+, Hg22+) and mercury complexes with natural substances were of prime interest. Attention has been paid primarily since the end of the 80s to the release of mercury vapour Hgo 13-22. In recent years, saliva in its property as solutizer and transport medium for mercury in its various binding forms has been increasingly taken into account 23-29, 42. Gerhard 30, 31 has drawn attention to the relationship between infertility, polycystic ovaries, hormone disorders, loss of hair in women and heavy metal burden. Investigations at the Laboratory for Reproduction Toxicology at the Tübingen Women's Hospital on the influence of heavy metals on humans reproduction have shown that female patients with amalgam fillings have a considerably higher mercury concentration in the follicular fluid than in those without amalgam fillings 32. To test the possible toxic actions of mercury on hormone producing cells, human granulosa cells were cultured. It was found that the hormone synthesis was significantly reduced already at a relatively low mercury concentration, while the cell vitality was almost unaffected 33, 34. For further insight into the relationships between amalgam fillings, mercury concentration in the saliva and fertility, a large-scale field study using saliva analyses was carried out. In the present report, the results of mercury concentrations are presented. In a second publication correlations between symptoms of health and amalgam fillings will be shown. |

Than you, again, IIean, I knew Dr Haley was updating his website, was
wonderful research he has done! God Bless him! Jan "Ilena Rose" wrote in message ...
