Mercury and Your Health:
New Developments
with
Dr. Boyd Haley, Dr. David Kennedy,
Dr. Richard Kunin, and others
Leading experts in medicine, biochemistry and dentistry will discuss the health impacts of mercury and share information on a new drug for chronic or acute mercury toxicity.
Mercury-levels are increasing in our environment due to the growth in coal power plants and mining, resulting in atmospheric, oceanic and ground water contamination. The direct result is increased mercury levels in fish, wildlife and people.
Topics addressed in this seminar include:
- What are the sources of mercury in our environment?
- How has mercury use changed in dentistry?
- How is mercury toxicity misdiagnosed?
- What are the symptoms?
- What can the public do to protect their health from the effects of mercury?
- How is mercury toxicity treated today?
- What is the new drug NBMI for heavy metal overload and how does it work?
- What to discuss with your medical and dental professionals.
There will be an open discussion leaving plenty of time for you to “ask the experts.”
