Hi Loni,

According to this, it does - although if this ranking is accurate, it is a weaker conductor of electricity than several other materials.

The second column represents conductivity, I think:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistivity_and_conductivity#Resistivity_of_various_materials

I am surprised to see mercury relatively low on this list - below minerals like calcium, zinc, and iron.

Here's another page that lists the thermal conductivity of various metals (it appears that thermal conductivity corresponds to electrical conductivity).  Again - Stainless Steel seems to have a pretty low number:

Here's yet another page that generally cororborates things - although the specific rankings appear to be slightly different.  Again - surprised to see EVIL mercury so low:

Svetaswan,
If you talking about mercury, as in mercury in silver fillings...alone it may be low on the list. But silver fillings are amalgam. That means they are a mixture...and guess what else is in those silver fillings? As of the  70's, they upped the amount of COPPER from 20 percent to 30 percent. According to Dr. Hal Huggins, who wrote the book: "It's All In Your Head- The link between mercury amalgams and Illness" 1983...high copper amalgam is the fastest selling amalgam on the market. He quotes a study that states : High-copper amalgams are SO much more chemically reactive that they give off mercury 50 times faster then conventional amalgams (which were 3-6 % copper)
So a silver filling is silver, mercury AND copper. And we all know that copper is an excellent conductor of electricity. This certainly explains alot, doesn't it? These fillings destroy health, they destroy teeth, and they cause oral galvanism..and electricity will take the path of least resistance....from a filling in the mouth, to the brain.
And speaking of silver fillings, for those who have this on their To Do List, please do your research well. It isn't enough just to have a mercury free dentist to do the work, who is familiar with all the safeguards. The dentist should have a meter to read the electrical charges in the teeth, so that the fillings are replaced in the correct order of the charges. Doing it this way can save one a whole lot of grief. Every tooth corresponds to organs/glands in the body. I cannot stress how IMPORTANT this is, to make sure the dentist has the equipt to measure the ele charges in the teeth, so they can safely remove and re do those fillings in an order that WON"T cause the body more harm.

all metals do. Scroll down to the chart to see how much.

Hi Lizzie,

It definitely sounds like you bring up a lot of great points about these amalgams.  Yeah - I knew that "silver" fillings were composed of metals other than mercury.  It's just that - given the intense focus on mercury as such a destructive poison - and given the fact that it often seems to be implicated as playing a (strong) role in electrosensitivity - it surprises me to see it that low on the list of conductivity (behind such minerals as zinc, iron, calcium - and even magnesium - if one of those sites is to be believed).

And a lot of the anti-amalgam outrage seems to focus squarely on mercury - not the other metals that comprise the amalgam.  I guess I just assumed that it was (mainly) because mercury is the metal that is the metal that vaporizes and "sneaks" into places all over the body.  I'm not sure to what degree the other metal constituents of the amalgam "poison" the body - I guess I've been focused too much on mercury (thank in no small part to the expertise of anti-mercury crusaders such as Dr. Andy Cutler).  

And I thought - or maybe I just assumed - that when dental fillings were discussed as a role-player in e.s. - people were talking about the mercury in the fillings most of all.  I mean - I knew that there are other metals in those fillings (like silver) that are strong conductors of electricity - but I guess I just sort-of assumed that mercury that was lodged in the brain may be an important factor in the "head" symptoms, at least.  But, according to the conductivity rankings - other metals play a stronger role.  I mean, I think we may have higher concentrations of iron and calcium (just to name two substances) in our bodies than we have mercury.

I guess mercury does the bulk of its damage through its strongly pro-oxidant properties.  The damage occurs much more via oxidation than electrical conductivity. Metals like zinc may be much stronger conductors of electricity - but they aren't as pro-oxidant (zinc is actually anti-oxidant).  

I guess - if amalgams cause/contribute to e.s. - it could make a lot of difference just by removing the fillings (I'm not talking about chelation - just removal of the fillings).  I wish I were in a position to have mine out -  I swear, I wish the criminals who decided that mercury/metal fillings were "safe" could be prosecuted.

Looks like it will be a lot more difficult - to say the very lest - getting these fillings out than it was putting them in.  Since pretty much all of my fillings were placed in the '80s and early '90s - I suspect I have the "superpoison" high-copper versions...

thanks I think! ha
 
anything more in plain terms? Well I guess the answer is yes it does but not as much as other metals. My husband says it does not. LOni

Yes, especially since mercury *has* been used to conduct electricity
in thermostats.

Although I think the damage done to the body by mercury probably has
nothing to do with it's electrical conductivity.
