??? interpreting hair test (message not posting right)

[Guest guest]

I can't get this to post......

Hi, could anyone give feedback or explain or anything the hair test below. I'd

appreciate it! I tried to look at counting rules and it looks like the first one

applies to where there are too few above the line??? I can't tell other than

that what this all means.

Hair Elements by Doctor’s Data.

Collected 3/13/06

POTENTIALLY TOXIC ELEMENTS

element result ref range color

==============================================

aluminum 4 < 7.0 green

antimony <0.01 < 0.050 no line

arsenic 0.061 < 0.060 green

beryllium <0.01 < 0.02 no line

bismuth 0.019 < 0.10 green

cadmium .052 < .10 green

lead .1 < 1.0 green

mercury 0.07 < 1.1 green

platinum <0.003 < .005 no line

thallium < .001 < .010 no line

thorium < .001 < .005 no line

uranium .045 < .060 green

nickel .09 < .4 green

silver .05 < .15 green

tin .06 < .3 green

titanium 0.34 < 1.0 green

TOTAL TOXIC REPRESENTATION

(This doesn’t have any numbers by it, but has a line right about halfway in

the green. The end of the green says 68th percentile, so I’m guessing that my

number is 34th percentile)

Also, when it is in the white below it is hard to tell whether that is under

or over, so I just tried to look closely and guess.

ESSENTIAL AND OTHER ELEMENTS

element result ref range color under/over 50%

============================================================

Calcium 402 300-1200 green under

Magnesium 36 35-120 green under

Sodium 6 12-90 yellow under

Potassium <3 8-38 red under

Copper 17 12-35 white over

Zinc 200 140-220 green over

Manganese 0.04 0.15-0.65 red under

Chromium 0.32 0.20-0.40 green over

Vanadium 0.029 0.018-0.065 white under

Molybdenum 0.025 0.028-0.056 yellow under

Boron 0.51 0.30-2.0 green under

Iodine 0.52 0.25-1.3 white under

Lithium <0.004 0.007-0.023 red under

Phosphorus 170 160-250 green under

Selenium 1.2 0.95-1.7 white under

Strontium 1.0 0.50-7.6 green under

Sulfur 48700 44500-52000 green over

Barium 0.23 0.26-3.0 yellow under

Cobalt 0.007 0.013-0.050 red under

Iron 7.9 5.4-14 white under

Germanium 0.035 0.045-0.065 yellow under

Rubidium 0.004 0.007-0.096 yellow under

Zirconium 0.031 0.020-0.42 green under

RATIOS (ON BOTTOM RIGHT OF PAPER)

element RATIOS EXPECTED range

============================================================

Ca/Mg 11.2 4-30

Ca/P 2.36 1-12

Na/K 2 0.5-10

Zn/Cu 11.8 4-20

Zn/Cd >999 >800

Also why are my reference ranges different than the ones that were posted on

the website? Isn’t the same reference ranges for everyone.????????

This is the website where I am getting how to post these from

http://home.earthlink.net/~moriam/HOW_TO_hair_test.html

Questions I have:

I had a previous urine test that showed high mercury. Why doesn’t this hair

test show it. Also, arsenic was high on the urine test too.

What do I do about Arsenic? This seems to be a problem, and I looked at the

“sources of exposure” and have none that I know of!

Also what do I do about these other toxic metals that have levels that are

“detectable” which I don’t think is good

aluminum

arsenic (ALA will get this, right? Is it okay to wait till I can safely do

ALA for mercury to treat the arsenic too? Or should I be doing something else in

the meantime.

bismuth

cadmium

lead (DMSA will “get” this, right?)

mercury

uranium

nickel

silver

tin

titanium

Also what do I do about the really low elements?

Potassium – my blood potassium is normal. However I do get muscle cramps and

the potassium helps that when I take it as a supplement.

Manganese, Cobalt (don’t know why this would be low or what to do)

Lithium – same thing. And why is it so low it is below detectable.

The Lithium and potassium really concern me being below detectable. WHAT can I

do to increase my levels of these?

Looks to me like you qualify for the counting rules as far as deranged

mineral transport goes (17 or more above or below)

Looks to me like adrenal fatigue is indicated by your potassium, sodium

and calcium , magnesium. Other than that, I don't feel qualfied to say

much more. You might want to consider getting Andy' Hair Analysis book.

TK--- they are two totally different tests

Also, arsenic was high on the urine test too.

TK--- Use DMPS and avoid exposure
