System lupus erythematosis and mercury toxicity

Publication date: July 2012 Source:Personalized Medicine Universe, Volume 1, Issue 1 Author(s): John P. Salerno This case study examines the relationship between heavy metal toxicity and its influence on auto immune disease. In the traditional medical world almost all auto immune diseases are classified as idiopathic. In my clinical experience with hundreds of auto immune disease patients, it is increasingly clear that environmental influences particularly heavy metals and most commonly mercury is a major causative agent. This case study is not uncommon and the effect of mercury on immune disregulation is well documented. It is therefore imperative that the medical community examine more closely the effects of our environment on human health.
