hoi Jhanne, mensen met kwikbelasting kunnen mogelijk juist vaak ook weer niet goed tegen een ketogeen dieet jammer genoeg. Het punt is namelijk dat candida zich voedt met ketonen. Als je je goed voelt op een ketogeen dieet, dan zou je kunnen zeggen dat kwikbelasting meestal niet in het spel is. Als ik op een ketogeen dieet ga, dan word ik hondsberoerd: een goede aanwijzing voor een kwikbelasting.

Andrew Hall Cutler says in his book “Amalgam Illness” that yeast problems are a common complication of mercury and that the “appropriate treatment is MERCURY REMOVAL”. He further explains how mercury causes candidiasis in the first place:
“Neutrophils are in charge of killing off extra yeast. Mercury is known to inhibit some of the specific chemistry neutrophils use to kill yeast.”

Many others agree (although most of them don’t seem to be aware of how mercury impacts the immune system): Dr. J Towbridge supposedly claims in his book “The Yeast Syndrome” that 98% of candida sufferers have mercury poisoning. He is also being quoted as saying said that “I do know this, if you have high mercury levels and you don’t fix this problem, you will never get rid of your Candida.” Erik Bakker N.D. says “It is speculated that the methylated mercury has a candida building effect in the intestines, and it is not until thorough mercury cleansing has taken place in these situations that the patient is finally rid of their chronic candida yeast infection. If you have a chronic yeast infections or candida you simply must look into the mercury connection.” Natural News reports “In the gut, mercury creates an environment that is not friendly for beneficial bacteria. An overgrowth of bad bacteria and Candida results.” This study on neutrophil activity came to the conclusion that “(…) HgCl(2) inhibited: (1) polarization and (2) immunoglobulin (Ig)G-mediated phagocytosis of sheep erythrocytes in a dose-dependent manner from 2.5 to 10 microM.” Another paper presents the following negative effects of mercury on lymphocytes and neutrophils: “Furthermore, mercury decreased the immune response, and age of seals had an effect on cell sensitivity to mercury. Concentrations of 10(-5)M of methylmercury chloride decreased phagocytosis and lymphoblastic transformation responses.”
