This is from my notes and recordings at various seminars where teeth and microbial infections - Lyme Disease - was discussed:

This is Dr. K. speaking:

"Tubulin is one of the key elements in our body that you need to know a bit about when talking about heavy metal toxicity. Tubulin is the microscopic structural scaffolding along which the body is held up, held erect. It's not the bones - it is the tubulin.

Tubulin is in the connective tissue inside the cells, inside the nerves, and it is primarily a structural molecule. But in the nerves it serves as a special, other function. Tubulin looks like a pipe. In the nerve, it's along the tubulin that all the neurotransmitters are piped from the nerve cell down in the periphery; and neurotransmitters are stored in the little bubbles, in the vesicles, in the synaptic knob. (Showed picture)

The important thing to know about tubulin is that Without tubulin, the nerve cannot transport neurotransmitters, but also to the end, the nerve cannot transport nutrients up from the nerve endings into the nerve cells.

Without tubulin the nerve starves to death and cannot function as a nerve which is highly dependent on producing neurotransmitters which are released when the electric impulse travels along the axon of the nerve. We know that one of the major sites where mercury attacks the nerve is the tubulin. Why is the nerve being poisoned with mercury - what is the property of the nerve that makes it more vulnerable to mercury? The answer to that question is one word -- curiosity. Nerve cells are curious. If you place anything in front of a nerve, the nerve gobbles it up like a child with their mouth - stick it in their mouth, taste it, feel it; and what happens with certain toxins that we call neurotoxins are those that the nerve gobbles up, but they cause damage inside the nerve. The nerve cannot get rid of it - like a child that eats something that's bitter or doesn't like, takes it in their mouth, spits it out and not much damage is done. However, the nerve when it takes in (through a process called penocytosis), if it takes in substances from its periphery then travel up inside the nerve and are transported to the center of the nerve. Substances that cause damage on the way up or in the nerve cells - they are referred to as neurotoxins.

Mercury has been found as being the only neurotoxin that causes damage to the tubulin. So when mercury is placed here, the nerve with its curiosity picks it up and immediately it travels within a very short period of time up the axon, destroys the axon, destroys the bridges over which it came into the nerve, and destroys several cell organelles in the nerve.

The toxins that are in the liver cell or in the connective tissue behave very different and cause very different symptoms than the toxins or the mercury that has made it inside the nerve.

Mercury has made it inside the nerve and causes neurological symptoms; (Evidence relating to Alzheimers was shown); the developmental disorders in children - especially autism; we know that the link to MS, ALS, and all the neurodegenerative disease, is mercury once it enters the cell. We know from the research and from the chemistry involved that no other metal can cause this damage to the tubulin.

All the other metals are co-factors. And what the government and other institutions make you believe - everybody focuses on the secondary things. How much have you heard about lead toxicity in children?

Lead toxicity is now a big subject because lead is forbidden now. So now that it doesn't have any impact - the gasoline industry now is not allowed to use lead anymore - it has no impact because it is already done. So all the studies that the government funds now are on the things that are already outlawed. But they things that are still used, there is no funding for those studies. This is one of the big political issues behind mercury. Do not be deceived on that.

Some of the symptoms, each one of these has at least two articles in the medical peer reviewed literature in it: What I will show you is that there is not a single symptom in the human condition that is not caused by or exacerbated by mercury toxicity. Not a single one. It may be hair loss or pimples or premature aging, thyroid dysfunction, etc.

Depression - low grade depression is found in newborn children, like in 2-year 3 year olds; with having the most severe expression in the teenage years, especially in boys when the hormones kick in. Testosterone ( as Boyd Haley and other researchers showed) has a tremendous synergistic effect with mercury. That's why autism is four times more common in boys than in girls. But also the suicide rate in male teenagers is far higher than in females. The moment the testosterone kicks in, the low grade depression that you had throughout childhood from the mercury will turn into suicidal depression and you jump off the bridge or put the bullet through your brain; and/or you murder a bunch of children in school and then shoot yourself.

And yet, the distribution of all the work that was done in this area is being suppressed.

More and more neurological things, people complaning about numbness and tingling of the hands; it is not carpal tunnel syndrome and it is not a deficiency of Vitamin B6 or B5 to start with - it is mercury that has disturbed the metabolism of those vitamins. Or it has disturbed the connective tissue.

Any tremors - any dentist that we test where we ask them to close their eyes and stand there long enough - you see the fine tremor, if they have been in the business long enough; unless they cut the corner and became mercury free dentists or cut the corner in other ways and are now TMJ specialists and have escaped.

Showed evidence of ALS and MS. We know now they are not just caused by mercury; but mercury is an important co-factor in all of the neurological diseases, because we know that the chronic infections are involved and especially the infections in the jawabone." (cont'd)

Take care.

One of my kids had what was like a mild form of autism. Her Dr said it was SAD and tried anti depressants. Anyway we put her on detox foot pads and she has improved dramatically. We suspect it was mercury from all the shots they give kids these days.

Oh my, just minutes ago I posted about connective tissue disorders. Then I open and read this.

Gigi, why would my body muscle test and lie about my mercury poisoning? My body has lied before about some issues through muscle testing only to come out later.

You understand so much about muscle testing. Did your body ever lie about something and then it came up later? Could my doc be approaching the dental issues on me incorrectly? Help?

Thanks, Pam

up for Gigi, need your expertise.
