What does cradle cap indicate?

Thanks, Kaye

Hey Marcy,

Based on other mine and other kid's results:

Consider a complete thyroid panel. High hair iodine can be one

indication of hypothyroid or the beginning of it. Consider

evaluation of Zinc status (probably intracellular elements).

According to Dr.McGinnis, high hair Zinc yields a 95% chance of low

intracellular zinc and impaired zinc transport. Before any measles

vac, consider blood test for vit.A status and I would NEVER recommend

MMR, only separate shots, if any.

Hi Marcy,

My very uneducated opinion is that I would do mercury detox IF she

fails the counting rules. (I didn't check but recommend checking.)

If she fails the counting rules, I would do the mercury detox

routine. (How old is she now? I'm not recommending using DMSA or

ALA with an infant..... I'm also not saying it is bad to do so.

I don't know.)

If she is not merc toxic according to the counting rules, then

I'd treat the other metals.

Regardless of anything else you do, I would do another hair test

on her once in a while.

best,

Moria

She is 6 months old tomorrow. I'm particularly worried about the

copper/zinc issue, as I heard at the DAN conference that there is

correlation between that and developmental delays. Also, the NA/K

ratio is way off. My boss (a pharmacist) said to definitely check

that.

It is hard to do this off the numbers alone - are you saying that if

you draw a line right down the middle of the little charts - right on

" average, " that only 4 are below that line and the rest are above it?

We use only epsom salts for my son, baby shampoo and liquid baby soap

(We have a separate shower). I am using some cortisone topically on

occassion for the terrible itch from the cradle cap. I have NO IDEA

where barium comes from, and my son also had toxic amounts in his

hair test. Anyone know?

Yes. If you draw the line down the nutrient elements, 4 are on the

left, 1 is a little over the line to the right, and 10 are well over

the line to the right.
