Guest guest Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 Molybdenum is used to make uric acid and sulfate. It is the enzyme cofactor. Another molybdenum enzyme metaoblizes aldehydes - this is the enzyme that antabuse blocks so alcoholics get sick from drinking. In alternative medicine a uric acid level below 4.0 generally suggests more molybdenum is needed. Low uric acid is very common in mercury tox. MS is just another form of mercury tox, so it is no surprise uric acid is low there too.

Many people with MS have had great sucess with amalgam replacement and (sometimes) also chelation. Hal Huggins discussed this a bit in his earlier books. He wrote a book about MS and mercury-- about a year ago. I have not read the book yet. You can buy it on his website. good wishes, Moria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 23, 2004 Report Share Posted March 23, 2004 Thank-you Andy... My daughter is also dumping sulphates in huge quantities in urine. Does this somehow relate to the Mo deficiency which I know my daughter has through blood tests. Best, in Germany [ ] Re: Uric Acid Levels > Molybdenum is used to make uric acid and sulfate.

Hair and urine levels too if available. If DDI hair, color band. Uric acid level. Sulfate in urine, how measured, etc. Sulfate in blood if available. Any measurement ever made of tungsten. Copper and zinc in all media measured. Hair color. Dietary sulfate reduces molybdenum absorption. If your daughter does not use her sulfite, e. g. is a Feingold diet candidate, it may also affect absorption and she may need high level supplementation. It is also possible she may have some unique metabolic issue relating to handling of molybdenum. Andy . . . . . . . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2004 Report Share Posted March 24, 2004 Sorry to jump in here but I am wondering if this maybe connected at all with my post re old hair test results (which Andy was good enough to answer) - where everything, including toxic minerals were very low except Molybdenum which was off the chart. In her last DDI test 11/07/2003, the molybdenum was OK (0.13 ref range 0.048 - 0.13 green). However, her last OAT test showed sulfate 1,101 ref range 180 - 430 High. Obviously my understanding of how Mo and Sulfate are connected leaves A LOT to be desired!! Can anyone explain? Sorry, being in UK and without doctor's support means any blood/plasma tests are not an option.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2005 Report Share Posted January 15, 2005 Hi tom - congrats on the fat loss. It is safe but you need to make adjustments obviously. Hard to tell what to do since I don't know what exactly you are eating. How about a few days' sample? ABO Specifics Inc. - http://www.foodforyourblood.com Good Morning All, This weekend I received the results from my $1200 independent blood draw. There was only number out of the lab range. My Uric Acid was 8.6 on a range of 3.6 - 7.7 for this lab. The last blood test I had which I could find results for my Uric Acid levels was 6.5. My blood was drawn on Tuesday December 21 at 8:30 am. On Sunday, December 12 I took ' advice and began eating 200g of protein and cut out all fruit. I have stayed by that though some days I've been low on both calories and protein overall. I am of course eating more vegetables. Also I am working with a personal trainer and have lost 10 lbs of body fat in the last 5 weeks so my body is pretty regularly burning fat and muscles in a state of repair to some degree (I'm not overdoing it). How related are these things? The company which I ordered the blood tests through, Your Future Health, also provides commentary about improving all individual blood scores. Here's what they wrote about my Uric Acid Levels (they did not know I had changed my diet so radically): " Lower Uric Acid: Check your magnesium score (Tom: which was 1.9 and labled Great!) but even if it says its ok more is usually needed to correct your score. Also use whole food B complex and extra vitamin B6 to help prevent kidney stone formation. Drinking good quality water and plenty of it is critical (Tom: I do this and did so the morning of the blood draw). Cut your intake of the processed carbohydrate foods, sweets, organ meats, caffeine and alcohol (Tom: I haven't eaten any of these for years). Retest within 3 months to be sure you get a handle on this. Kidney stones are very painful. " Any comments from this group would be appreciated as I know a lot about BTD compliance but not so much about my blood. : I have last 10 lbs body fat in 5 weeks so you are right the fat loss is coming with the prescription you suggested, but is this safe?
