The medical and scientific literature is packed with this information and has been for at least 150 years. You don’t have to look far to find it.
The Mercury Detoxification Manual
I wrote this book with Andy Cutler, PHD, PE, pioneer of mercury chelation. It is written in a style that even the most cognitively impaired and brain-fogged person can understand and follow.
In it we identify the sources of how you may be exposed and poisoned by mercury or other heavy metals. Then we take you step by step through how to detox using low dose, oral chelation. Nothing else works half as well as this method. The information has been out there for at least 20 years but this is the first time it has been presented so a layperson can understand it.
From the book:
“These are the biggest source of mercury exposure in the general population. Amalgam fillings are 50% mercury by weight. Mercury evaporates from these fillings and goes on to accumulate in the brain and organs.”
p. 3
“There is no profit to be made by diagnosing and treating mercury poisoning. If there were, any chemist at any pharmaceutical company, by reading the same standard medical texts that Andy read, would come up with this same protocol: low-dose, oral chelation, based on the half-life of the chelators.”
p..4
“Dietary supplements and prescription drugs are all chemicals. Neither are magically better than the other. We simply want you to use those chemicals that will make you feel better. Our experience has been that dietary supplements are more likely to be tolerated and are often as useful as drugs, although for certain conditions prescription drugs are necessary and do work better.”
P.77
“The genes that control your child’s development are the same that controlled his ancestors’ development. His ancestors nursed, played, learned, grew and matured in a consistent pattern from the Stone Age through ancient and biblical times, through the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the Industrial Revolution, the last century right up till now. Normal healthy development has been crucial to the survival of our species for thousands of years and it’s clear almost all children will develop normally, if nothing interferes. If a child is not developing normally, it should ring alarm bells regarding toxicity.”
p.158-159
This book is a definitive guide to help anyone detox mercury in a safe and methodical way. It helps identify your issues, tells you what to do, how to do it, and most importantly what not to do.

The Detox Manual is the only book you need to safely detox mercury from the body. If you are doing any detoxing, don’t go anywhere else. All the information you will need is in this book. This book has saved my life.

Everybody who is toxic with mercury should at least take what we call the “Core 4” supplements. These are magnesium, zinc, vitamin C and vitamin E. These two vitamins and two minerals particularly counteract the bad things mercury does to you.
There are loads of other supplements you can use to help you feel better while you detox. I have put together several packages like “The Core 4.” There are other combinations to support your liver, or support and heal your adrenals.
Frequently Asked Questions
on Mercury Poisoning and Treatment Options
My doctor says I should do a challenge test, do a DMPS IV, take chelators once a day and so forth.
Be very cautious about taking the advice of doctors, naturopaths, chiropractors and other providers. They do not have the proper background or technical education to guide you. Frequent low dose chelation is the only way to remove metals safely. Any other way carries significant risk. Chelate properly and get well!
Does chelation remove important minerals?
No. The chelators discussed in The Mercury Detoxification Manual, alpha lipoic acid, DMSA and DMPS, are highly selective for heavy metals. They do not directly remove the lighter nutrient metals. People who have mercury often have low magnesium and zinc because mercury keeps your body from holding on to them. When chelating, this problem may be exacerbated for magnesium. No other metal is affected.
Shouldn’t I heal my gut, cure my candida, clear out my detox pathways before I start chelating?
These problems will never clear up until you chelate. You can treat them at the same time as you are chelating. Chelating will allow your immune system to work properly and combat these problems. Do not put off chelating for more than two weeks.

- Giovanni
As a result of severe mercury toxicity and redistribution, I found it impossible to wade through the endless pages and information regarding the do's and don'ts of chelation therapy. I had already done several if not all, of the 'don'ts'. I needed someone like Rebecca who's been through it to help me stay away from the don'ts, so that I could get better as soon as possible. I tried group forums but they didn't help. I would have to wait days for the answer, and there were so many off-topic comments. With Rebecca I was able to get the right answer right away, no waiting. No confusion.
I highly recommend Rebecca as your chelation coach because everyone needs someone like her by their side. She is reasonably priced and prompt with her emails and always willing to call or Skype in tight spots when I really needed someone to talk to. I could not have got this far without Rebecca Rust Lee."
Thank you, Rebecca!
- J.H.
I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to Rebecca Rust Lee for the tremendous work she did in creating The Mercury Detoxification Manual. I read that book first, and after successfully chelating for about four months to incredible improvement, bought and read Andy's original Amalgam Illness almost cover to cover.
AI is a remarkably thorough and cogent textbook on chronic mercury poisoning and its cure, but the sheer quantity and complexity of the information presented was overwhelming, even after reading everything else I could get my hands on on the topic (and becoming a health nut the last two years before that), not to mention the lack of specificity in some areas (like supplementation dosages) and learned experience from two decades of internet discussion.
If I had read AI first, I might never have chelated at all, or these last few months would have been extremely difficult. The MDM is billed as "written for the severely brain-fogged," and I could not agree more. AI is what I would give to my physician. The MDM is what I would give to a friend.
Thank you, Rebecca, from the bottom of my heart.
