I asked Ai about mercury in the brain, how to get it out and liposomal glutathione

So I have been playing around with the Microsoft Co-Pilot Ai to get some information on car wheel sizes and investing. It is really good btw. Out of curiosity I decided to ask it about mercury in the brain, how to get it out and liposomal glutathione. Here is what it said.

How does mercury impact the brain?

“Mercury primarily affects brain regions involved in cognitive function, motor control, and emotional regulation. Some of the most impacted areas include:

• Cerebellum – Mercury exposure can impair coordination and balance, leading to motor dysfunction.
• Hippocampus – This region is crucial for memory formation, and mercury toxicity has been linked to cognitive decline.
• Cerebral Cortex – Mercury can disrupt higher-order thinking, decision-making, and sensory processing.
• Basal Ganglia – Involved in movement regulation, mercury toxicity can contribute to tremors and motor impairments.
• Amygdala – Mercury exposure may affect emotional processing, potentially leading to mood disturbances.

Mercury has a unique ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, allowing it to accumulate in neural tissue and interfere with neurotransmitter function. If you’re curious about ways to mitigate mercury exposure or its effects on brain health”

That’s pretty good Co-Pilot. Good job. All those are symptoms of mercury toxicity aka mad hatter disease.

What are the sulfur containing areas of the brain?

“Sulfur-containing (SH) groups are abundant in various brain regions, particularly in areas involved in neurotransmission and antioxidant defense. Some key regions with high concentrations of SH groups include:

• Basal Ganglia – This area plays a crucial role in movement regulation and contains high levels of sulfur-rich compounds like glutathione.
• Substantia Nigra – Known for its role in dopamine production, this region has significant thiol (SH) activity, which helps protect neurons from oxidative stress.
• Cerebral Cortex – Various cortical areas, especially those involved in cognition and sensory processing, rely on SH-containing enzymes for neurotransmitter function.
• Hippocampus – Essential for memory and learning, this region has high levels of glutathione and other sulfur-based compounds that support neural health.

These SH groups contribute to redox balance, detoxification, and neurotransmitter regulation, making them vital for brain function. If you’re interested in how this relates to neuroprotection or specific conditions, let me know!”

Note these are the same areas as what are impacted by Hg. Now we know that mercury loves to bind with sulfur specifically SH groups due to their electrical charge. +2 binds with -2. So that is what it does, where it goes and how it does it.

Do amalgam mercury fillings release mercury vapor?

“Yes, amalgam mercury fillings do release small amounts of mercury vapor, especially when chewing or grinding teeth. However, regulatory agencies like the FDA and CDC consider these levels to be safe for most people.

That said, some groups—such as pregnant women, children, and individuals with neurological conditions—are advised to avoid amalgam fillings due to potential risks. If you’re concerned about mercury exposure, alternatives like resin composite, glass ionomer, or porcelain fillings might be worth considering.”

Now I don’t agree with the FDA and CDC here. Safe is relative term. Not recommended for children. Yeah that’s when my first fillings were put in. The age of ten. I do agree on the replacement materials. Those are the white fillings I mentioned. The FDA to me is suspect as these are the same people that told us asbestos. smoking and various other harmful things were ok at one time. They are really slow on the uptake btw. By the time they agree it is common knowledge. Also, how does one denote most people and for how long? A bioaccumulative toxin might be ok in the short run but in the longer term it is the build up that gets you. It is not safe for anyone. Let’s be clear about that. Also, some might consider APO-E4 carrier and double copy a neurological condition. That’s a large percentage of the population. Also, hot liquids like coffee or tea will increase the release rate along with brushing your teeth. We all do that.

Ok onto the next one. More AI.

What about glutathione? We know glutathione is the main detoxifier of mercury in the brain due to the presence of SH sulfhydryl groups. It binds up the mercury so that it can be removed from the brain and not bind to neurons and other important cells. Let’s ask.

Can the brain have low glutathione levels?

“Yes, the brain can experience low glutathione levels, which can lead to increased oxidative stress and potential cognitive issues. Glutathione is a crucial antioxidant that helps protect neurons from damage caused by free radicals. When levels are depleted—due to factors like aging, poor nutrition, chronic stress, or environmental toxins—the brain becomes more vulnerable to oxidative damage, which has been linked to conditions like neurodegenerative diseases and cognitive decline.

Some signs associated with low brain glutathione include brain fog, difficulty concentrating, and increased susceptibility to neurological disorders. Since glutathione plays a role in detoxification and maintaining cellular health, its deficiency can disrupt normal brain function.”

Ok sounds good. i would classify mercury as an environmental toxin. Now the hard one. How do we get more in to the get the tightly bound mercury out?

Can liposomal glutathione enter the brain?

“Liposomal glutathione is designed to enhance glutathione absorption by encapsulating it in tiny fat-based particles called liposomes, which help it bypass digestive breakdown and improve cellular uptake. This delivery method allows glutathione to reach the bloodstream more efficiently, potentially benefiting brain health by reducing oxidative stress and supporting neurotransmitter balance.

Some research suggests that liposomal glutathione may help protect neurons and improve cognitive function, though more studies are needed to confirm its direct effects on brain health. If you’re considering supplementation, factors like dosage, formulation, and individual health conditions can influence its effectiveness.”

Voila. Big applause for the Co-pilot Ai. Nice job. Stuff that took me years of study, trial and error and thinking right there. I am impressed. I wish I had this when I first encountered my symptoms and didn’t know what it was or what to do.

Do your own research if you want. But remember mercury especially mercury vapor that is released by dental fillings is really bad for your brain. It goes in, binds to the neurons and takes forever to come out. If you have had mercury dental amalgam fillings you may want to accelerate the process to pull it out. I don’t have thirty years to wait. I want to enjoy my life, be smarter and make money now. But remember the first step is to have any mercury based fillings removed and replaced with more bio compatible materials. Then once your body has cleared out any toxins you can think about further detox.

What else did Ai say?

“The brain has limited ability to detoxify mercury on its own, which is why mercury exposure can be particularly harmful. Unlike other toxins that the liver and kidneys can filter out, mercury can cross the blood-brain barrier and accumulate in brain tissue, making it harder for the body to remove.

However, some natural processes help:

• Glutathione Production – This antioxidant plays a role in detoxifying heavy metals, including mercury.
• Blood-Brain Barrier Defense – While not perfect, the barrier helps limit mercury entry.
• Chelation Therapy – Certain compounds, like alpha-lipoic acid and selenium, can bind to mercury and help remove it.

If mercury exposure is a concern, dietary changes (like increasing sulfur-rich foods such as garlic and onions) and medical detoxification methods may help. “

How does one boost glutatahione levels in the brain?

“Boosting glutathione levels in the brain can help protect against oxidative stress and support cognitive function. Here are some effective ways to increase it:

• Consume Sulfur-Rich Foods – Sulfur is essential for glutathione production. Foods like garlic, onions, broccoli, kale, and Brussels sprouts can help.
• Increase Vitamin C Intake – Vitamin C helps recycle glutathione and maintain its levels. Citrus fruits, bell peppers, and strawberries are great sources.
• Take N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) – NAC is a precursor to glutathione and is commonly used to boost its levels.
• Exercise Regularly – Moderate exercise has been shown to increase glutathione production and improve brain health.
• Reduce Stress – Chronic stress depletes glutathione. Practices like meditation, deep breathing, and quality sleep can help maintain levels.
• Consider Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA) – ALA helps regenerate glutathione and supports brain function.”

These are good answers but the one they don’t mention is direct import into the brain via liposomal glutathione. If production is hindered importing raw materials may not help. You need to first get those systems working.

What impacts would one see over say 30 years?

“Having amalgam fillings for 30 years can lead to gradual mercury exposure, though the effects vary depending on individual sensitivity. Here are some potential impacts:

• Mercury Vapor Release – Over time, small amounts of mercury vapor are released, especially when chewing or grinding teeth.
• Neurological Symptoms – Some individuals report brain fog, memory issues, and mood changes, though studies show mixed results on long-term effects.
• Kidney Function – Mercury exposure can affect kidney health, but research suggests levels from fillings remain below harmful thresholds for most people.
• Oral Health Concerns – Older amalgam fillings may crack, leak, or corrode, potentially leading to secondary decay or gum irritation.
• Immune System Sensitivity – Some people develop allergic reactions or heightened sensitivity to mercury, though this is rare.”

Why are mercury fillings not recommended for children

“Mercury is particularly harmful to children because it can interfere with brain development, nervous system function, and overall health. Here’s why:

• Neurotoxicity – Mercury can cross the blood-brain barrier, disrupting brain development and causing cognitive impairments.
• Developmental Delays – Studies show that higher mercury exposure is linked to lower verbal intelligence scores and increased risk of autism and learning disabilities.
• Prenatal Exposure Risks – Mercury can pass from mother to child during pregnancy, accumulating in the umbilical cord, sometimes at levels 1.7 times higher than in the mother’s blood.
• Long-Term Effects – Mercury exposure can lead to permanent IQ loss, motor skill deficits, and even mental retardation in severe cases.

Because mercury is found in contaminated fish, industrial pollution, and some medical products, limiting exposure—especially for pregnant women and young children—is crucial. Are you looking into ways to reduce mercury exposure?

“Mercury fillings, also known as dental amalgam, are not recommended for children because of potential health risks associated with mercury exposure. Here’s why:

• Developing Nervous System Sensitivity – Children’s brains and nervous systems are still developing, making them more vulnerable to mercury’s neurotoxic effects.
• Higher Absorption Rates – Young bodies absorb mercury more efficiently, increasing the risk of accumulation.
• FDA & Health Warnings – The FDA advises against amalgam fillings for children under six, pregnant women, and individuals with neurological conditions due to concerns about mercury vapor exposure.
• Safer Alternatives Available – Modern composite resin, glass ionomer, and porcelain fillings provide effective cavity treatment without mercury-related risks.

Mercury fillings can have potential health effects on a 10-year-old child, though studies have shown mixed results regarding their long-term impact. Here are some key considerations:

• Mercury Exposure – Amalgam fillings release small amounts of mercury vapor, which can be absorbed into the body. While most studies suggest these levels are low, children are more vulnerable due to their developing nervous systems.
• Neurological Effects – Mercury is a known neurotoxin, and excessive exposure can affect memory, concentration, and coordination. However, clinical trials have found no significant IQ loss or cognitive decline in children with amalgam fillings over a 5–7 year period.
• Kidney Function – Some research has examined whether mercury exposure from fillings affects kidney health, but findings suggest that levels remain low and do not cause measurable harm.
• FDA Warnings – The FDA advises against amalgam fillings for children under six, pregnant women, and individuals with neurological conditions due to concerns about mercury exposure.”

How does APOE-4 status affect the brain’s ability to clear out mercury?

“APOE-4 status can negatively impact the brain’s ability to clear out mercury, making individuals more vulnerable to its toxic effects. Research suggests that the APOE-4 variant may be less efficient at detoxifying heavy metals compared to APOE-2 and APOE-3. Here’s why:

• Weaker Metal Clearance – APOE proteins play a role in transporting and clearing toxins, including mercury. APOE-4 appears to have reduced effectiveness in binding and removing mercury from brain tissue.
• Increased Neurotoxicity – Mercury exposure tends to produce more severe neurological effects in individuals with APOE-4, potentially contributing to cognitive decline.
• Structural Changes in the Brain – Mercury binding to APOE-4 may induce altered protein structures, which could further impair detoxification and increase oxidative stress.

This connection is still being studied, but it may explain why APOE-4 carriers are at higher risk for neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s. If mercury exposure is a concern, supporting detoxification through glutathione production, chelation therapy, and antioxidant-rich diets might help.”

What percentage of people are APOe4?

“About 25% of people with European ancestry carry one copy of the APOE4 gene, while around 2% have two copies. The prevalence varies across different populations, with some groups having lower or higher frequencies.

Since APOE4 is linked to an increased risk of Alzheimer’s, researchers are studying ways to mitigate its effects”

Like I said this Ai is really good. Bravo Co-pilot. Recall the article I posted that showed the strong connection between mercury and Alzheimers. This is one reason why. Also if you are an APO4 carrier like 25% of people the impacts can be stronger. That’s true as I can attest. You can do a 23 and me test if you want to find out. The health test they will tell you APOE4 status. Now if you have a double copy of this gene you really need to take mercury exposure seriously. But remember everyone is impacted given the half life of mercury is potentially decades so it’s not so relevant. BTW APOE4 is found in all races people not just whites. The 25% is merely a study done on Europeans.

Why do dentists continue to defend mercury amalgam fillings?

“Dentists continue to defend mercury amalgam fillings for several reasons, despite ongoing controversy:

• Durability & Longevity – Amalgam fillings last 10–15 years or more, often outlasting composite alternatives.
• Cost-Effectiveness – They are cheaper than resin or ceramic fillings, making them accessible for patients with limited budgets.
• Ease of Placement – Amalgam is less sensitive to moisture during placement, reducing the risk of failure compared to composites.
• Regulatory Approval – Organizations like the FDA and WHO consider amalgam fillings safe for most people, though they advise caution for pregnant women and children.
• Resistance to Wear – Amalgam fillings are stronger than some alternatives, making them ideal for molars that endure heavy chewing forces.

However, critics argue that mercury exposure—even in small amounts—can pose health risks, particularly for vulnerable populations. Some dentists now prefer mercury-free alternatives like composite resin or ceramic fillings.”

So it is about cost! Our health is compromised for the sake of cost savings and profits. Slow brained FDA is another reason even though many countries in Europe have banned amalgam. You wanna know why? Total cost healthcare. They pay for health from cradle to grave. They know that being penny wise and pound foolish in the long run is bad. So anything that makes people healthier is good. Here the model is transactional meaning they don’t care about your well being. You are the one that pays for your health problems and memory care if you end up in one. It’s a bad system in my view as it puts profits over people and nobody is looking at things holistically.

i have to say I am impressed with Ai. It is much harder to hide the truth from the masses with a tool like this.
