I have looked up and found some mentionings of the name so I now know what
you mean. Wikipedia anarchist... "Achieving good Nutrition is an Art, NOT a
Science!" is apparently his famous idiotic statement.
I come here as a scientist, not as a village idiot. Somebody suggested that
there are way to measure and dispose of heavy metals in our bodies. I
wonder if that's an urban legend. The poster sounded as if he knew what he
was referring to. I still am not sure to what extent mercury is the body is
damaging and in what sense.
