In 80 years, the government never once did a study to determine the safety of thimerosal (mercury preservative) in vaccinations/shots.

Yet, the government clearly knows the dangers of mercury - although they would like to have us believe that exposure comes primarily from fish.  Note the absence of any mention of "vaccine" exposure in this article!

Learn the facts about mercury and other metals!!! 

There is enough mercury in one thermometer or one tooth filling to pollute a 20 acre lake for 10 years.  In fact, if you were to break a mercury thermometer in your house, all persons would need to leave immediately, for up to 3 days while the house windows were left open to get rid of the toxic fumes.   If you ever do break a mercury thermometer, you should leave the house immediately, and contact your local agency responsible for toxic spills.

Mercury is the second most toxic substance known to man... second only to plutonium!

Dental fillings (the silver ones) are actually 50% mercury.

http://www.merck.com/pubs/mm_geriatrics/sec5/ch40.htm

Note:   Although amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles have been the "big area of study" in Alzheimer's,  research based on autopsies of normal aging has shown that amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles do naturally form in the brains of normal elderly throughout the neocortex, hippocampus, and amygdala (Reisberg, 1981).  

Neurofibrillary tangles are found in other disorders as well (see last link above).  In other words, they are not "unique" to Alzheimer's. 

So, as much as amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles have been in the news, there has to be more to Alzheimer's than "just this issue".  :o)

Note:  Males store iron more readily than women... Could that also contribute to male/female onset variation in Schizophrenia?  Do young boys also retain iron more?   Is that a factor in autism prevalence in boys?

...and yet, another new term for me... dialysis dementia!

... more and more dialysis patients also have diabetes...

Note:  Mercury leads to iron overload... excess iron is known to accumulate in the pancreas leading to diabetes and in the kidney's leading to kidney failure.  Excess iron also suppresses the immune system.

I suspect NO plays a major role in all these mental disorders and the fact that it is in the cerebellum in high concentrations just makes me wonder about NO all the more!!!  See my section on Updates for cerebellum info.  The cerebellum appears to be the "brain within the brain", in charge of regulating many, many functions (motor activity, emotions, language, higher functioning).

NO also regulates synaptic efficacy.

(this first article is an excellent article on Schizophrenia in general - note comment on "everything being in bits... and when you move, the picture is "destroyed" and thus moving is "frightening"... sounds very much, in my opinion, like what we see in autism - the "focus on the parts" issue)

http://wwwchem.csustan.edu/chem44x0/SJBR/Mann.htm (role of dopamine in schizophrenia... note above under casein that ck-1 also plays role in AD and comment that "long fatty chains" have been found - see more on that issue under Lorenzo's Oil section in UPDATES section)

Things have a tendency to disappear on the Internet, but I can often find where the information has been moved or find replacement links addressing the same issue.  There is a lot of information provided on this site and any assistance with broken links is most appreciated.   My site has now been hacked twice.   If you get bounced to sites for online drugs, etc., report this to me at once using the above email as this is a result of hacking on my site.  This had nothing to do with me and/or my site.  Read more on hacking issue.
