Herbs for Mercury Detox
Meanwhile, you can use garlic and MSM [methylsulfonylmethane], a natural form of organic sulfur — an essential nutrient available in capsule/pill form — to remove the toxic effects of mercury.

Garlic and MSM are both rich in sulfur — sulfur, as you know, is a good anti-mercury agent. It is always good to use garlic in food. Garlic improves the body’s sulfur reserves.

Clove is another good chelating agent; try to eat 2-3 cloves everyday.

You may also introduce cilantro [a member of the carrot family, and also referred to as Chinese parsley and coriander] to your diet.

Cilantro helps “muster” mercury, and other toxins, and flushes them out of the body through excretion.

Cilantro, or coriander, is available in most grocery stores.

Also, you may take a multi-purpose vitamin supplement — especially, vitamins C and E — on a daily basis — to improve the chelation process. However, make sure your capsule contains all the essential minerals.
