Many people with low mercury have LOW mercury because they are

NOT poisoned, but, on the other hand MOST people who ARE

mercury poisoned have low mercury in hair....

Well, I don't know what to say other than that feeling a big

overwhelmed sounds very normal and kinda uncomfortable.

Take care of yourself however you can

here is some " yeast " reading material for ideas on that:

Actaully, that is more about things to help with yeast

than what to feed her. Although low/no sugar comes to

mind. And " live " yogurt (the grocery store stuff usually

isn't; the HFS stuff usually is. If she is GFCF you can

get soy yogurt unless you also avoid soy.) Probiotic

capsules work just the same though, so you don't need

to feed her this.... I'm just rambling on about " food " .

I *think* that glass pots are SUPER safe, and stainless

steel are pretty darned good. I'm personally sorta wary

of aluminum, and VERY wary of teflon or " coated " pots.

In a microwave, glass is the safest, and HARD plastics

that are MADE for microwaves are better than the

soft plastics (made for food storage), I think.

That seems okay to me, I think it will take you a little while

to digest all this and get prepared for it. Keep reading.

Brandee,

If this is a DDI hair analysis, please post all the elements for help with the

counting rules.

Try to identify and eliminate/reduce her exposure to the toxic metals which

showed high. Aluminum: vaccines, fluoridated water, aluminum cookware, baking

powder, etc. Arsenic: treated lumber, stain resistant, pesticides sprayed on

cotton fields, golf courses, and orchards in particular. Bismuth: Pepto

Bismol, balmex. Tin: toothpaste, processed cheese, and canned pineapple(?).

Mercury: mercury amalgam dental fillings (in individual or mother during

pregnancy or breastfeeding), vaccines, coal-fired power plants, etc. Check

Dana's website for a more thorough list.

How old is Hannah? Does she have any mercury amalgam dental fillings?

my daughter hannah's hair test results showed the following w/ regard <BR>

to toxic elements:<BR>

showing her level, then followed by the reference range:<BR>

<BR>

aluminum  44   <8.0<BR>

arsenic   0.2  <.08<BR>

bismuth   .18  <.13<BR>

cadmium   .29  <.10<BR>

tin       .58  <.30<BR>

I am feeling a bit overwhelmed since they also told me she has a <BR>

severe yeast AND bacteria overgrowth in her gut.  I don't know what <BR>

to feed her and if I do think of something I don't know what <BR>

pots/pans/skillets are safe?  <BR>

<BR>

The doctor's plan is to get the bacteria and then the yeast under <BR>

control (31 days worth od prescription and probiotics), then maybe we <BR>

can start to address the metals issue.<BR>

<BR>

Guess I just needed a sounding board..<BR>

Thanks,<BR>
