Smoking Mercury Fillings = Poison Gas

Submitted by HPI on Thu, 09/23/2010 - 19:40

Dr. Joseph Mercola comments:

"This video is worth more than a thousand words when it comes to illustrating the very real danger of mercury fillings. The video helps to powerfully demonstrate that if you have these 'silver' fillings then every time you eat, chew, visit the dentist or drink hot coffee, the mercury vapors are released directly into your mouth and body.

"The poisonous vapors are odorless, colorless and tasteless, however, so you won’t be able to tell that they’re there. It takes holding a tooth up in black light to be able to see the toxic shadows of mercury being released."
