Mercury in any form is a poison. That truth is learned by many individuals at an early age. What isn't readily available information however, is the fact that mercury is used in ALL metal dental fillings (incorrectly referred to as "silver fillings"). Why the American Dental Association (ADA) wants the public to think mercury is magically rendered harmless when placed in dental fillings (in the mouth) is a very thought provoking question, not to mention, scary... This book addresses mercury fillings in the mouth along with a few other really great tidbits you'll be glad you learned about...

Don't forget to also read "Uninformed Consent", Dr. Huggins latest 1999 book release.

Fortunately, I met Dr. Huggins back in 1983 when I had no idea what was wrong with me and I was sleeping 15 hours a day and each day I felt like I had just pulled an all-nighter at college...The medical folks told me I was either pregnant or I needed a shrink. Luckily for me they were wrong on both counts... All I needed was to have the mercury removed (correctly) from my mouth and subsequently from my body. (Body detoxification lasts for the rest of your life). Thank you again Dr. Huggins!

Dr. Huggins takes us on a eye opening tour of mercury toxicity at its worst and how are lives can be changed if we are willing to heed his advice.

After competing in a marathon I noticed that I had absolutely no desire to exercise. Having been an athlete all my life this was a little scary. When I started taking 5 naps a day and would forget simple things like meals, I knew I had a problem. My homeopath had "It's All In Your Head" and suggested I read it. I was amazed at the coverup the ADA has managed to get away with all these years. Luckily for us Doc Huggins has dedicated his life to getting the word out about the dangers of mercury toxicity.

After reading this book you should check out his website Hugnet. com and learn more about dental revision. I had mine done a year ago at his clinic in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and feel great. I now nap when I want to, not because I have to, have no more brain fog, and am starting to slowly get back into an exercise program.

So, read the book, research the website, and get those amalgams removed and replaced by a material compatible with 'your' body and get on with your life.

After being diagnosed with high mercury levels from my doctor, I have been researching the devastating effects of mercury poisoning. I am so thankful for pioneers like Dr. Huggins to speak out against one of America's most blatantly deceptive organizations in our country, the American Dental Association. Even if you don't have "silver" fillings, this does effect you on a daily basis, you just don't know it. Read this book and others to find out how. Give it to those you love with "silver" fillings, and find a "Mercury Free" dentist to remove them properly!

we slowly are learning more about the hazzards of MERCURY in our bodies. sure, we now stay away from mercury infested fish--but what about the gov. is not talking about ("truth"-not in their vocaulary) is the mercury in our vaccines--NO they are NOT safe.

we do not know the individual threshold for mercury to throw us overboard. it could be just one vaccination with thimerosal preservative(mercury) that can injure-and don't give me that bs that we can detox mercury-the levels the gov allows are NOT safe for most-much less an infant who cannot rid all toxins to a full extent yet...and some can't detox the poison at all or only to a small extent--so why risk and put it in your bodies in the first place?


the gov will take away a dentists license if one talks about amalgam dangers to health. (ps flouride is not good for you either)

now we know for a FACT--yes a fact! that mercury in children causes AUTISM, also causes allergies-food sensitivities, auto immune diseases, ADHD, ADD.the symptoms list is long...

My amalgams were half out, replaced with composites. and I have another four to go..thought I read enough--I did not. Decided to see if I missed something, I did..there is a lot of info in this book.

I overlooked checking for positive and negative charges in my amalgams, I didn't know about the 7,14,21 day immunity cycle, I didn't know what to look for in my CBC's =which usually come out "normal" for us--check again--Huggins really goes over all this well. I'm going through his book again--AND got his other book "Uninformed Consent" to read before I proceed with the rest of my amalgam replacements.

His book is great. please read-even if you are not getting your amalgams removed-Huggins talks about the decay/corrosion dangers- infections, he talks about why having GOLD fillings and amalgams in the mouth are toxic combo.

if you do decide to get amalgams replaced--please do it with a dentist that does this only--if call a dental office-ask if they place amalgams in the mouth-and if they do-hang up! you do not want to put your health in their hands-amalgam removal MUST be followed by a safe protocol-call DAMS for more amalgam info in addition to this book.

read as much as you can before you stir things up with your amalgams, get them out, the chelate/detox--hundreds of ways to do this..and live a long life-a full one without illness, allergies, memory loss, bad eyesite, ringing in the ears, without ADHD......... --be mercury free--the best to you all!

My strange and "unexplained" symptoms again resurfaced after a 20 plus year battle with chronic fatigue and systemic yeast. After I thought my health had improved through holistic measures, colonics, aloe vera juice, internal cleansing, etc., my immune system is again inexplicitly attacking me. I do not take any antibiotics or alcohol, yet for almost two years, I've had recurrent pain in my root canaled tooth. I've told my dentist of the pain to no avail, he even advised that I NOT have the tooth removed, as it would create a "bite problem." My answer to him is that I won't have to worry about my bite because I'll be dead from mercury poisoning. I didn't actually say that, but it is my opinion after reading,"It's All In Your Head." Yes, I was told to see a psychiatrist, but my worse fear is they'd drug me and put me in an institution and I'd be dead in six months. So, I did alternative therapies with some success, and am now willing to see a dentist that is involved in mercury toxicity. I called the 800 number in the book, and received a referral for such a dentist. If I had known of the dangers, I'd never had the root canals done, nor the silver fillings. My life has been wasted on unexplained illness, fatigue, and countless doctor visits. I have suffered in silence long enough. The book explains how autoimmune diseases can occur from dental toxicity. It told how the intestinal "good" bacteria are lost and how mutant DNA (now linked up with their old pal mercury) emerges to wreak havoc on your internal chemistry. It even gets saturated in your brain tissues, as proven through autopsy, there was a direct correlation between the amount of measurable brain mercury and number of dental fillings. Root canals pose even more hazard, and can destroy the nervous system. Take control of your life, get the book, and demand that hazardous materialls not be put in your mouth. I am shocked and angered that I foolishly let the dental profession compromise my health and my life, and like the old song, I feel he is ,"Killing Me Softly With His Drill"

Hal Huggins has certainly done his homework on the mercury toxicity issue, and is very thorough in his discussion of the recommended procedures for amalgam removal. He covers the nutritional and disease aspects of how mercury affects the body, and also touches on the political aspects of this issue, the ADA's stance on mercury, and why their view is flawed. He discusses individual cases to show how removal of amalgams has resulted in improvement in those with "incurable" diseases. Anyone who is curious about the possibility that their dental fillings are the cause of their health woes needs to investigate further, and the most prudent will get rid of all mercury fillings. Hal Huggins has done the public a great service by exposing what the American Dental Association has hidden from us, and it is obvious that his sole purpose is to protect the public, regardless of the personal cost to him, and offers assistance in finding the appropriate dental care providers in your area.

This is the book to read! After breaking a tooth munching on a SOFT roll, I started actually tasting the amalgam filling underneath since now the front face of the tooth was gone. What a disgusting taste! Try eating a metal bar for dessert. After reading this book and visiting a holistic dentist, my initial decision to have all the mercury pulled out of my mouth is now more than ever a great choice.

Dr. Huggins puts it out there in PLAIN language and doesn't pull punches. He also admits when he doesn't know, something that is not as common as it should be today. I tried one of his diagnostic techniques on myself using a simple multimeter that reads voltage and amperage. I was SHOCKED to find that I am a walking "D" cell! Not only that, but the one filling that is now exposed due to the broken tooth has the highest reading of all! I could probably recharge some real batteries with all the electricity I am generating. Okay, maybe not THAT bad, but would you have really considered that your mouth is producing disruptive and possibly debilitating electric currents? Didn't even occur to me and I have many years of electronics experience. Adds new meaning to the term "cyborg"! :-)

Get this book and follow his recommendations. At the very minimum, you can get tested and find you are just fine the way you are. That alone is worth the peace of mind.

Do it.

As a person with a dental background, I would like to say: To my knowledge, all Dr. Hal Huggins has said about Mercury toxicity and its effects on the brain and nervous system is correct. It is truth. For those who defend the dental community and ADA, you do not know who owns the patent on this mercury filling. It would be a big liability. *Also please read any of the health books by Dr. Blaylock a neurosurgeon exposing metal toxicity as well as other legal poisons in our everyday lives.

Next, I would like to tell you: Having my Root Canals extracted is the biggest regret of my life. My facial bones have resorbed and shrunk, without the compression forces of biting everyday. My smile, speech, chewing are all effected. I will have alot of surgery ahead of me so that I do not develop neuralgia, and I have other complications. The mercury that I had removed, was good choice. Glad to be rid of it. Just don't breathe the vapors, which is the methylated mercury and the deadliest kind.

My warning to you is: How do you know your Holistic Dentist knows what he is doing? Because mine didn't. Make sure your spaces a filled as soon as the gums have healed and are ready. Dentures are not natural, they have chemicals in the pink plastic, and also making eating difficult. If you are young, you need to be aware that without balanced number of teeth in your dental arch (top and bottom) there will be gradual changes to your jaw and facial bones. Also, I have found some Holistic dentists are not truly holistic in philosophy, and have chosen to get on the Alternative medicine band-wagon to pump up their business. Some- not all.


Please be careful.

Dr. Huggins is very honest and well meaning, from what I can see. But he may not have been in practice long enough after he made this discovery to develop better ways of dealing with subsequent problems long term. The people he trains will hopefully pick up where he left off. This book gets 4 Stars for Dr. Huggins bravery and sacrafice. I am hopeful for you all, just understand once a tooth is gone, you can't get it back. Believe me I looked into regrowing them and genetics too, its not happening --yet.

This book should be mandatory reading for anyone interested in maintaining their health. As someone whose husband has been diagnosed with mercury/heavy metal poisoning due to the mercury amalgams in his teeth, I can testify to the devastating affects this poison can cause to the human body. My husband went from being a very strong, healthy 52 year old man who was never sick to a very ill one in a matter of months. Until we figured out what was wrong with him, my husband was preparing himself and me to die - he was that sick. We went from doctor to doctor trying to find out what was wrong with him - we even made a trip to the Cleveland Clinic, but all any of those doctors could do was tell him the didn't know what was wrong, what was causing it and then prescribe drugs to mask his symptoms. It was finally through our own exhaustive research that we made the connection between his symptoms and his teeth. Unfortunately, we didn't figure things out quite soon enough as he has lost part of the vision in one of his eyes, and we don't know if he will recover that sight. We were fortunate to locate a dentist that trained with Dr. Huggins and that follows Dr. Huggins' protocol. My husband is undergoing having all of his amalgams, crowns and root canals removed and replaced with compatible materials. Dr. Huggins' book is a life saver - it is well written, easy to understand and so very informative. After reading his book as well as Dr. Russel Blaylock's Health and Nutrition Secrets (another book I highly recommend), everything made sense.

Our new dentist referred my husband to a wellness center and to a wonderful functional medicine specialist who has developed a custom chelation protocol to remove these toxins from my husband's body. He's getting better, but we don't know yet what permanent effects he will have from this. I'm grateful that this information is gradually coming to light - I wish more people, especially the mainstream media, would pick up on it a bit more.

I get very angry whenever I think about what the dental community has done to my husband and to millions of other unsuspecting folks. The very agencies designed to protect us, the FDA and the ADA, have done a horrible job of that, and they refuse to admit that they are a problem. I find it ironic that they now warn pregnant women and children not to have amalgams placed, but apparently they are okay for everyone else? Mercury has no place in the human body regardless of whether you are 3 or 93! It is one of the most toxic substances known to man - mercury thermometers and mercurochrome have quietly disappeared off the store shelves; the EPA website offers very specific instructions on how to clean up after breaking a fluorescent lightbulb; the package insert for amalgam has a skull and crossbones and instruction on how to dispose of the excess (call haz mat) - yet the FDA and ADA deem it safe to place in teeth inches away from the brain and spinal cord. In fact the department of health and environment for the state where I live currently has a Mercury Collection Program ongoing and it cites all of the dangers of mercury, but not one word about amalgams (although dentists are free to participate!).

Get this book - it could save your life!
