Mercury in seafood? How about the mercury in your mouth! (opinion)
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
American consumers, it seems, are frequently warned about the mercury content of seafood. Even the FDA now warns pregnant women not to eat seafood due to its mercury content. But did you ever wonder about the health effects of all the mercury being put into the mouths of children and adults in the form of mercury fillings? (Dentists call them "silver fillings" to conceal the fact that they're made with about 40% mercury.)
Thanks to the continued promotion of mercury fillings by the American Dental Association and conventional dentists, consumers continue to be poisoned by this heavy metal that's intentionally placed into their mouths. There's so much mercury currently being put into the mouths of humans that the total volume of mercury being dumped into the environment from mercury fillings is nearly equal to that emitted by coal plants.
In fact, the mouth of the average consumer is so toxic that ocean creatures should be warning each other about eating humans. To consume a human being, to put it bluntly, would be extremely unhealthy for any animal. Humans carry the highest concentration of toxic chemicals of all creatures on the planet. Their livers, hearts, kidneys and brains are so heavily contaminated with hundreds of different synthetic chemicals that if humans were slaughtered as a meat source, they'd never pass USDA food safety standards. (Soylent Green, anyone?)
If whales could speak human...
Did you ever wonder what ocean creatures might say to humans if they could speak English? Maybe something like, "Hey, stop flushing all your crap into our homes!" And they'd be right to complain about it, too.
To put this into perspective, imagine all the dolphins, whales, lobsters, stingrays, swordfish and octopi in the ocean suddenly marching up the beaches, sloshing their way into your home and taking a crap in your living room. We do far worse to them, however, because we don't just dispose of organic matter, we actually lace it with fragrance chemicals, pesticides, herbicides, medications, heavy metals, industrial waste and even radioactive substances.
Cruise ships and Navy vessels routinely flush raw sewage overboard, right into the ocean, even though doing so is a violation of international law. Out in the middle of the South Pacific, who's watching anyway?
There are some parts of the ocean where currents concentrate human garbage that will float: soda bottles, yogurt cups, milk jugs, styrofoam packaging and the like. The stuff is so thick that you can actually walk across this "island of garbage" on foot, unaided, without sinking. It's as if humans were creating another land mass made out of landfill. Soon, somebody will probably build condos there are sell them online as "ocean front property!"
If there's any group of beings on this planet that should be warned about another group of beings, it's the ocean creatures who should be warned about humans. In fact, there should be a large red warning side slapped on the side of the planet, clearly visible to all creatures and interstellar visitors, that reads:
WARNING: Don't feed the humans.
(They haven't yet learned how to clean up after themselves.)
We're still chewing on mercury, for crying out loud. How stupid is that?

P.S. Did you know you can protect yourself from mercury using nutritional supplements and superfoods? Taking chlorella and spirulina helps remove mercury and other heavy metals. Drinking cilantro in a smoothie also does the trick. Uber-nutritionist Jon Barron has a product called Metal Magic that combines these two ingredients. Check out www.BaselineNutritionals.com
Dr. Gabriel Cousens also uses Natural Cellular Defense to help remove heavy metals. He's a raw foods guru and a pioneer in vibrational nutrition. Check out his info (and his raw foods retreat) at www.TreeofLife.nu
