Guest guest Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 I recently tested positive for copper toxicity on a hair Tissue mineral analysis test by ARL. I think my cfids is realted to or caused by this. I think its related to high mercury. Also my zinc toxic and iron way low. I was advised not to supplement my iron as it wouldnt help right now. Also a slow oxidator. " Slow oxidizers often experience some degree of fatigue, lackof energy, sugar cravings low bloodsugar levels, constipation, weight gain, dry skin and depression " due to less thatn optimal adrenal and thyroidglands. high aluminum (memory,dementia,fatigue,behavior difficuluties) copper=high= fatigue depression,moodswings insomnia etc chromium =way low my CA/P ratio high NA/K high CA/K high has anyone used this test, or otherwise tested high in copper?or had similar metals problems? I think it is the cause of my cfids. I'm about to start the supplement treatments and low-no grain/ bean/gluten/sugar and fruit free diet/ more protein This includes supplement with oxbile to enhance biliary output, assisiting in removal of toxic metals from the liver zinc/panothenic acid, and cysteine supplement= pantothenic acid serves as part of coenzyme A which is the center of energy metabolism. zinc is activator and costituent of many enzymes also starting glandular adrenals. Weak adrenals may contribute greatly to accumulation of heavy metals as normal detox is impaired. Then the body compensates for adrenal weakness by copper, iron, manganese, aluminum, chromium, lead, cadmium, arsinic and other toxic metals. My test indicates a cellular thyroid effect that is out of range. , which may possibly contribute to low BP, tendency for infections,low body temp.depression, fatigue. Common causes of this thryroid issue ismercury, copper, chlorine toxicicity, impaired adrenal activity, nutrient deficiency and chronic stress.
