Re: Pyroluria & high copper

[Guest guest]

I replied to you via your email. But one thing I touched on, was we

use head and shoulders shampoo,(a lot, as he loves to wash his

hair). I saw on the internet that this can elevate zinc. Has

anyone else heard this? Oh, and his zinc levels were actually

normal, but high normal, which was surprising with the high copper,

I think.

That was my experience too. I used the same shampoo and

my zinc hair levels were high. Zinc is in the shampoo so I discounted

the reading. Most of all my mineral levels were low so I certainly

didn't think my zinc levels were high at all.

I didn't have any further testing. No additional blood evaluation.

Getting a test from even these alternative doctor is like pulling

teeth also.

The idea is to use 's baby shampoo or some other shampoo which

doesn't contain metals for a month or so befor getting the test done!
