Lisa Marie Presley Had Mercury Poisoning

Lisa Marie Presley has spoken openly over the years about her mercury poisoning from amalgam fillings. In the April 20, 2003 issue of Rolling Stone magazine, she said:

"My body started to deteriorate. I started to have panic attacks. I went through two years of baffling every doctor from East to West Coast. One week it was asthma . . . hypoglycemia . . . candida . . . reflux . . . I had everything. My gall bladder just. . . stopped working, and I had to get it taken out ... I wound up in the hospital. I had everything happening; my body completely fell apart. And nobody knew what the hell was wrong with me ... I was absolutely falling apart, physically and emotionally, for a two-year period ... It was the constant physical breakdowns that were going on that I didn't understand."

She visited a homeopathic doctor who told her the amalgam fillings in her mouth were causing her problems. Presley says her health returned to normal after having them removed.

" ... once I started to get it out, it all stopped ... Mercury can make you go ... crazy ... They try to say mercury is safe, but it's the second-deadliest poison known to man, underneath plutonium, and it's in people's ... teeth."
