Hairtest 5

[Guest guest]

Hi and ,

Will keep the thread to this forum. Good Idea (sometimes I think of the forums

as one)

>Her hair test doesn't fit the " classic " sign that Andy describes,

>but from what I have learned, the adrenal sign that Andy uses is

>the extreme case. There are lots of less extreme and/or more

>>complex pictures.

I see. She certainly has adrenals and thyroid symptoms. Can't get up in the

morning. Difficult getting to sleep. Collapses from exhaustion at 6-11pm. Skin

rash on each side of her neck (I wonder if this has anything to do with nickel.

Eyes seeping. Temperature problems. Crazy thoughts. Despondent. Lacks motivation

and enthusiasm. Tired all the time. Shakes with stress.

>According to Dr. Larry 's book, Na/Mg is the adrenal ratio

That makes sense. I wish she could get hold of Armour. She can only get a

thyroid glandular and pharmaceuticals

>Yes, slow metabolizer and also the Ca/Mg is at the high end.

>You might want to look at the recommendations for both slow

>metabolism and blood sugar.

She hardly has an appetite, was anorexic for a long time (years ago) and doesn't

eat meat. She is trying to eat a lot of nuts.

She can certainly have mercury even if she doesn't meet the counting

rules. If she was already supplementing before the hair test was

done, or if the mercury is deep in the brain or other tissues,

sometimes mineral transport appears normal.

> Yes she had been supplementing with minerals for at least 3 months, so that

could have 'tricked' the hair test.

Since mineral transport is normal, I would make sure she is getting enough

molybdenum (especially) and selenium.

> She will start molybdenum asap. She also has sulfite sensitivity and low

molybdenum can be the cause of that. Funnily enough I was the only one that did

not have molybdenum deficiency out of 12 tests (will send mine through in a few

days) and that is because I was the only one supplementing it. So I'm assuming

our soils do not contain much of it in SA. Everyone was low selenium and low

germanium.

No. I'm wondering though if she has a PARATHYROID problem. How does one figure

that out from the test? Is it the elevated Mg and Ca. How would she test

medically for that?

Yes, that is because Hulda recommends it and we have got a clean source of

it without binders etc. I will suggest he to shift to magnesium citrate and

update the website (on which page did you note that?). Does low hair magensium =

low body magnesium?

Thanks .
