The Environmental Protection Agency in the USA has deemed that <0.1 mcg per kilogram of body weight would be considered a safe level of daily mercury exposure; that is, less than 7 mcg daily for a 70 kg person. Consider then that each dental amalgam filling releases 3 – 17 mcg mercury vapour daily, and you can see why a New Year’s detox is a good idea. Source: Houston M.

Another source of mercury are vaccines: according to the U.S. Department of Health and FDA, vaccines contain approximately 25 micrograms of mercury per 0.5 mL dose. Source: http://www.fda.gov/BiologicsBloodVaccines/SafetyAvailability/VaccineSafety/ucm096228.htm
