Mercury and Human Health - presented by Dr. Jeff Clark

Mercury is one of the most toxic elements on Earth. We are exposed to mercury through the burning of fossil fuels and its use in medicine and dentistry, and it shows up in food, air and water as a result of industrial and mining pollution. Mercury is implicated as a causative agent for a variety of neurological conditions, including autism, dementia, multiple sclerosis, ALS and Parkinson's disease. It is also thought to be a factor in autoimmune conditions, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, endocrine dysfunctions (e.g., thyroid disease), sex hormone problems, infertility and birth defects. Low-dose mercury exposure is further implicated in depression and cardiovascular disease. Naturopathic doctor Jeff Clark will discuss the major sources of mercury exposure, the mechanisms of toxicity, ways to minimize your exposure, and your testing and treatment options when mercury is a suspected root cause of ill health.
