Public Health and Causes of Death
"...the function of protecting and developing health
must rank even above that of restoring it when it is impaired"

Wireless Internet or Cell Phones + Heavy Metal Toxicity
--> Chronic Fatigue Syndrome!??
I hadn't put all this together but Mercola did. This is why I keep up with what this doc is thinking. So here I am sitting in front of my wireless system, knowing that I have high mercury levels. There are so many electromagnetic fields in the city! Mercola says that heavy metal deposits, which tend to localize in the brain (and a few other places) cause electromagnetic radiation to do more damage there. Maybe this is what is causing my foggy headedness and fatigue?? Anyway, this is news to me: "when you expose a bacterial culture to abnormal electromagnetic fields, the bacteria believe they are being attacked by your immune system and start producing much more virulent toxins as a protective mechanism."
To surf the links and read all about it, see Mercola's page at http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2008/06/21/are-you-allergic-to-wireless-internet.aspx?source=nl

How Mercury Damages your Brain
At this link Mercola has an interesting video from the University of Calgary that makes it extra-clear why it's worth avoiding unecessary intake of mercury. Of course, some sushi is necessary.
