resulted in a significant improvement in amalgam-related symptoms. Furthermore, Lindh
et al.
61 showed that the removal of amalgam and other dental metals in 463 patients lead
to an improvement in over 70% of the patients in frequently observed symptoms (e.g.
fatigue, depression, muscle and joint pain, headaches, dizziness, stomach trouble,
forgetfulness). Animals and in-vitro studies have shown that exposure to inorganic and
metallic mercury cause neuronal damage biochemical alterations (including induction
of amyloid) found in Alzheimer's disease even at very low levels. Other metals like
Al, Cd, Pb, Mn, Zn, Fe, Cr, Cu, were not able to cause this types of neuronal alterations.
