Guest guest Posted February 9, 2004 Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 Hello all. I recently received my 4 year old's DDI hair elements test back. I did the counting rules. He doesn't seem to fit the typical mercury poisoning pattern. However, his Ca and Mag are extremely high and his Na and K are slightly low. I noticed that this can indicate mercury problems. Here are my son's results. What do you all think? Andy? Moira? Anybody? TOXIC ELEMENTS ELEMENT RESULT REF.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Ca Mg ++ and Na K - = adrenal problem. Not always mercury, but often. Otherwise the test does count quite normal. However, Hg of 0.03 is VERY UNUSUAL even if he didn't get vaccinated. VERY LOW hair mercury suggests he is holding on to it. I'd suggest trying a few rounds of chelation just to be " belt and suspenders " sure it isn't heavy metals before moving on to explore other areas. Adrenal cortex extract is very likely to be helpful regardless of cause. Also, give him a bunch of zinc. HIGH zinc usually means he is dumping it and really has low amounts in his body - also a typical mercury thing. Andy . . . .. . . . . . > Hello all.

Guest guest Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 What you have to do is think along the lines - if he has an inability or impaired ability to detox he will pick up metals from all over, just breathing air is a problem Well done for using the Counting Rules Mandi x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
