Typical kudzu response? (as if..!)

Hi Everyone,
I started kudzu, melatonin and magnesium w/calcium about 10 days into my cycle. About 7 days later, I stopped having any headaches overnight. I'd been having them every few hours and every morning at 0530. I also stopped having the 1000 and 1330 daytime headaches. All I'm getting now are mild hits and shadows.
Is this similar to what others of you have experienced with kudzu? Or is this simply a fluke and I'm just having a more mild go 'round this time?
I did also go to a naturopath who recommended I have my amalgam fillings replaced with composite to get rid of the mercury and she gave me stuff to get the mercury out of my thyroid. Voodoo medicine? I guess we'll see after the fillings are out!
PFD to all. Thanks for your insights.
David

Quote:Dental amalgam is a stable alloy made by combining elemental mercury, silver, tin, copper and possibly other metallic elements. Although dental amalgam continues to be a safe, commonly used restorative material, some concern has been raised because of its mercury content. However, the mercury in amalgam combines with other metals to render it stable and safe for use in filling teeth.
While questions have arisen about the safety of dental amalgam relating to its mercury content, the major U.S. and international scientific and health bodies, including the National Institutes of Health, the U.S. Public Health Service, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Food and Drug Administration and the World Health Organization, among others have been satisfied that dental amalgam is a safe, reliable and effective restorative material.

Could be, could be. But can you imagine the lawsuits and dentists sued out of existence if any organization ever said amalgam could be unsafe?

In theory, amalgam is quite stable, but in practice it is not. When autopsies are done, the amount of mercury found in a body is closely linked to the number of mercury fillings.

The outer boundary of what we currently believe is feasible is far short of what we actually must do.
