Dr. Colbert, the author of "What You Don't Know May Be Killing You", has a heart for people to get in control of their health. This book is written from a Biblical point of view combined with evidence from medical research.

Dr. Colbert Was Mercury Poisoned from Dental Fillings!, October 10, 2002
This review is from: What You Don't Know May Be Killing You! (Hardcover)
The first chapter "The Menace of Mercury" really grabbed my attention because Dr. Colbert was mercury poisoned from leaking mercury dental fillings. He tells about developing chronic fatigue and becoming jaundiced from the poisoning. He tells how to detox with natural supplements, and how to find a safe biological dentist to safely remove the filling. (But his telephone number for a dentist referral didn't work. Call 1-800-311-6265 for a number that will refer you to a dentist.) He gave a number for finding a MD who knows how to treat mercury toxicity (1-800-LEADOUT). He also told the symptoms of mercury poisoning and how mercury would mess up different systems in your body because "mercury is more toxic than lead, cadium and arsenic!" He said that it messes up the digestive bacteria in the gut, can contribute to antibiotic resistance, and interfere with nerve impulses in the body leading to neurological diseases. He connects mercury to infertility, birth defects, miscarriages, loss of concentration and memory. He gives many more effects and symptoms, but you will have to buy the book. It is worth buying so you can pass it on to someone else and help them.
Dr. Colbert said that mercury can cause autoimmune diseases in the body such a "rhematoid arthritis, Hashimoto's thyroditis, multiple sclerosis, lupus and other autoimmune diseases." Since Dr. Colbert is a holistic physician he understands the dangers of toxicity whereas traditional physicians don't even recognize the symptoms. His advice along with other authors like Dr. Hal Huggins has helped me through my time of chelating (ridding) my body of mercury.
He told how the American Dental Association refuses to admit that mercury in the teeth hurts people because they are afraid of lawsuits. The ADA says that mercury in amalgam is tightly bound in the filling, but if that is true, how did a medical doctor like Dr. Colbert become mercury poisoned? Dr. Colbert says mercury isn't bound, because he was poisoned when mercury leaked from his teeth.
Dr. Colbert is an example of just one way mercury from teeth can poison you. Only one chapter pertained to mercury poisoning. He also told other ways we are damaging our health in other chapters. If persons would take his advice on getting the mercury safely out of their teeth, detoxifying their bodies and using non toxic cleaning supplies they could be on the road to recovery from diseases like chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia.
I applaude Dr. Colbert for speaking out on this mercury issue because I was mercury poisoned myself from breathing mercury vapor while a dentist drilled into a "silver" filling. (Go to www.mercurypoisoned.com for my story.) Dr. Colbert will help wake up the Christian community to the fact that "silver" fillings are very dangerous because they are actually 50% mercury. Christians, are you paying attention??? God sent this man to warn you. Are you listening or yawning and saying, "Oh, it won't happen to me." It happened to Dr. Colbert and it happened to me, and it can happen to you. It is very true that WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW MAY BE KILLING YOU.

Wonderful Book Packed With Useful Info, May 25, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: What You Don't Know May Be Killing You! (Hardcover)
I've seen Dr. Colbert speak on "This Is Your Day" with Benny Hinn. His book is just as great as his talks. He is a medical doctor who uses a holistic approach to health mainly in a proactive and preventitive way. This book is easy and fast reading. It is jam packed with useful information on what everyday things we can avoid for better health. It includes information on detoxifying the body and gives people a "heads up" on harmful things that we come into contact with everyday that we don't think even twice about. It is a great book and I highly recommend it for people to see what things they are really exposing themselves to every day and what you can do live a healthier life.
