Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Received Charlie's Heavy Metals test results yesterday in the mail. If you can at all recall, Charlie started on Vitamin therapy in August and at that time had 6 approx words. Today we have small sentences after working with DAN!. I always think I am moving in the right direction and then, bam! Roadblock! So, I had to chill out and get my perspective on. Ignorance is bliss I thought yesterday when I read it. Thought we were doing great! But as I now see it after a good night's sleep, Knowledge is power. So here we go. Charlie is 30 month old 29-30 lb boy. He is on Fish Oil, E, Phosphaditalcholine, SuperNuThera, DMG, Threelac Probiotic, B6. This is the result of the Analytical Research Labs Inc. Hair Test for Heavy Metals and Minerals. Fast Oxidation - Charlie is a fast oxidizer who metabolizes food at a rate faster than ideally required for the producton of optimal energy levels to adequately perform basic body functions. Charlie's mineral stage indices that his body is presently in the exhaustion stage of stress. Hair tissues indicates a pattern fast or fast mixed oxidation with adreanal glandular burnout resulting in a breakdown in the energy producing systems of the body. This may be the result of, chronic stress, toxic metals, nutrient deficienies or other stress related factors. Thyroid is out of optimal range. Low Sodium / Potassium (Na/K) (Inversion) Ration Indicates a reduced vitality and impared electrical balance within the cells. Copper Imbalance Significantly impaired sugar and carbohydreate tolerance. Indicates impaired protein synthesis. Impaired digestion. Indicates he is in a prasympathetic state. Often due to the exhaustion of the sympathetic nervous system, which causes the body to shift to an unhealthy arasmpathetic state to allow for some degree of healing and regeneration. General causes for this state include nutrient deficiencies, toxic metal excess, excessive activity. Suggests an impaired immune system that my limit the body's ability to remain in a healthy state. Liver and Kidney stress. This may contribute to impaired toxic metal elimination, impaired immune system, carbohydrate intolerance, fluid imbalances or other conditions that may affect the liver or kidney function. Does not indicatr the presence of an inflammatory tendency. Hair tissue mineral analysis indicates excessive cell permaeability. If foreign proteins enter the cells to easily, acute allergies or asthma may result. Hormones and glucose mayalso enter the cells too easily contributing to a fast oxidation rate, thyroid and blood sugar imbalances. Behavorial Patterns - Indicates a pattern that may contribute to feeling of frustraion, resentment or hostility. A low sodium/potassium ratio is often associated with chronic adrenal, kidney and liver stress which in turn is often associated with these emotions. LOW ZINC - (We knew he had this and we are supplimenting with zinc - per MD - Probably not enough some of you on the board told me to give him more). Zinc is known to have a calming effect on the central nervous system and when zinc levels are lo, copper often accumulates in the tissues which may also contribute to mood swings. Metabolic Trends: Afrenal Burnout, Allergies, Allergies (Food), Anemia, Anxiety, Depression, Emotional Sensitiity, Fatigue, Glucose Intolerance, Insomnia, Kidney Stess, Liver Stress, Thymus (Underactive) Electrolyte Patterns: Calcium, Magnesuium, Sodium, Potassium - alarm stage to stress. Nutrient Mineral Patterns: Iron Imbalance (Possible) Copper, Manganese (too much sugar), Zinc- may be a compensatory effort by the body to help balance the sodium/potassium ratio. Chromium - blood sugar imbalances, sweet cravings or starch, fatigue, elevated cholesterolhypoglyceia or diabetes Selenium is required as an anti-oxidant nutrient to convert T4 to T3 and for detoxificaton of heavy metals and toxic chemicals. Phosphorus - indicates excessive protein cataboism or tissue breakdown. This maybe due to improper diet with a low protein intake, inadequate protein quality, impared digestion, imbalanced intestional flora, intestinal infections such as candida albicans or other parasitic infections, Other considerations that may play a role n a low phosphorus level are zinclevel or a hidden copper toxicity. These mineral imbalances can impair protein synthesis which requires a zinc dependent enzyme. RNA transferase. Improper eating habits that interfere with digestion may also contribute to your low phosphorus level. Balancing the phosphorus level with dietary modifications, digestive enzymes and nutritional balancing is most important as adequate protein sysnthesis is important for the regeneration of all body tissues. Toxic Metals and Chemicals Aluminum - Aluminum hair level is elevated. Sources of toxicity include, vaccines, aluminum cans, food in aluminum containers, aluminum cookware. ** Many fast oxidizers can tolerate and flourish wit an increase in their intake of fats and oils. For the fast oxidizer, these ar absorbed slowly, providing sustained energy which helps the fast xidation. Fats and oils also provide acetates and fat-soluble vitamins, both of which are needed by the fast oxidizer. Will speak with DAN! Next week to get going on Detox and how to get this crazy malabsorbsion in check. Also going to take him to a metabolic specialist. Any info on anyone using Zinc and how much from their DAN!

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Bottom Line: You have to address diet more. Less packages and sadly, gluten and soy and likely rice. Soy elimination may help the thyroid thing...never know til you try. Gluten, same thing. You are the ying to my yang. I did diet without fully addressing supplements and you did supplements without fully addressing diet. Given Charlie's fast progress I suspect he, like my guy, fits only 2/3 of Dr. 's observed syndrome. If so that makes us two of the lucky ones. Is the copper low too or just the copper is too much and the zinc too little? Change that water. It will remove a lot of exposure. As for aluminum, I suspect to see high aluminum as well. Remember, that is what came out in last 3 months, when you started detox. Good sign! This sucks but you caught it. Someone said something to me that applies here: The only way out of depression is action. You are acting and responsibly at that. Hang tough. If you need diet help just email me off list. Also, consider IGG testing to get all allergins but find out if the fish oil will alter results? You may not have inflammation because the fish oil is masking allergen. > > Received Charlie's Heavy Metals test results yesterday in the mail. > If you can at all recall, Charlie started on Vitamin therapy in > August and at that time had 6 approx words.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Hi Colleen - What testing was this? It is interesting that the adrenals are so taxed. That can be related to metals. I am also intested in the " fast oxidizers " comment. Our daughter is extremely thin. I will post more in a separate thread, but she is having trouble gaining, and at the last visit was diagnosed failure to thrive. They recommended we put her on a high fat, high protein, no carbohydrate diet. They suspect, because her pyruvates tend to be high, that she has trouble matabolizing sugar. She also has some vitamin def, etc, though she eats ALOT. I wonder how they tested/determined her oxidation rate. We had no issues with lipid peroxidation, and our DAN! said the oxidation stress markers were good, but we have not had thyroid tested. We have a call in to and endocrinologist. We too had high aluminum ( and cadmium and lead) on a provoked urine test. Was this a blood, hair or urine? Was this done with a dr or privately (we are in NY, so a lot of the private tests are not available to us). Just curious. Our DAN! recommended aggressive chealtion (alternating rounds of IV caEDTA and DMSA), but I am having trouble pulling the trigger. Let me know.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 No one can say water is the aluminum source w/o testing it. If anyone wants to see what is in their water to avoid recycling a metal or toxin or trapper they can test it via drs data for $129. If you want to filter it, reverse osmosis is an option. > > I am not sure about the water. cannot speak to that at the moment > > [ ] Re: Heavy Metals Test Results from DAN! - > High Aluminum - Very Long > > > > Thank you so much for spending the time writing your information on Charlie! > I look forward to reading about his progress and hope Jack will too after > his DAN! appt. next week.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 How did you get a distiller to get fluorine out for under $2500? The only NSF certified one for that that I found was $2500 so I bought the $300 ro filter. Most of the bad stuff in the house/bath water aside from fluoride can be reduced by 95% with an $80 whole house filter. They are big on chlorinating here so that was $ well spent. > > I bought a counter top distiller for $200 this Christmas.... does the trick but there is still the issue of chorine and other chemicals in the bathwater. > > Mark has refused to drink anything but bottled/distilled water for a few years now.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 I sobbed reading Charlie's test results. He and you have been my hope and for him to have this and speech and my guy to still be struggling it scares me to think what we have.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 For what it is worth, my personal story: Last year when I was drinking a lot of the fluoridayed water I ate like a whorse, lots of aluminum-laced stuff mind you and not the good diet your daughter has. In your average person aluminum is supposed to be easy to excrete. Fluoride traps aluminum. During that time I was eating like someone with an eating disorder and never gained a pound. I mean I ate like a horse and had every single thyroid symptom and more. Did not help that I was drinking aluminum laced ice tea. Since fluoride traps aluminum I have to wonder if fluoride and aluminum were part of my peekabo thyroid and diabetes symptoms. Since going GFCF I am no longer hungry like that and gravitate toward better foods. The only time it surfaces again is when I drink fluoridated water. It happened twice, unknowingly, then I backtracked and discovered the culprits. I truly wonder in our kids if aluminum is a big part of these skinny kid stories (I am not skinny mind you but given what I was eating there should have been weight gain). They get so much aluminum in these vaccines and if they could not get rid of it properly early on the battle rages. Not sure if this is relevant but it is my story. If you want to address water by testing it or filtering it se my other posts. I tend to perseverate on that particular subject:) Regarless , thanks for the posts. I'll be homeschooling next year and you make it seem doable. Hang tough. Your daughter will do well because of you and all your hard work. > > > > Received Charlie's Heavy Metals test results yesterday in the > mail. > > If you can at all recall, Charlie started on Vitamin therapy in > > August and at that time had 6 approx words.

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 WOW. I've been a bit out of touch but I wanted to chime in a bit because i'm down the road a bit further but.. your kids' hair analysis is a mirror image of my son's, he is now 5. I'm going to try to be brief. I started on the list when my boy was 3.6 yrs (june 06)- the point when I said enough is enough w/mainstream " wait, sorry about your luck and here is your ticket to life long special ed " . This was also the time when appeared on the list, Thank You ! Back then, no one wanted to openly talk about TOXICITY. And all of the apraxia / dyspraxia stuff is really related to the FACT that our kids are TOXIC. As I was figuring this thing out, I was mad as he** that is was right in our face and if we mention it openly we got repremanded (oh, yes, i got a bit of a lashing). So, mothers where sharing the real goods off the list. So happy to see that nonesense has ended. THANKS to all of you new Mom worriors who simply won't stand for it! JANICE!!! a red carpet surly waiting for you at the ol' golden gates. Anyway, my intention is to bring you all to your/my kid at 5. I personally think the chain of command is a waste of time and money. Go straight to an ACTIVE!!!! DAN! Dr. Don't think for a second that he/she needs to be anywhere near your home. Not necessary at all... you need the BIGGEST AND BRIGHTEST NOW! While this journey is a marathon rather than a race... you are against the clock. I like Neubrander, Usman, Rossignal, Stoller, Green, McCandliss, Bock, Bradstreet, there are plenty of others but be aware... there are stinkers. And while you may like your chosen Dr.'s compassionate, kind charasmatic ways... if you get an inkling (mommy instinct) that your kid is stagnating,you are not connecting, any " feeling " ... move on. You simply keep/take all your current labs down the road. Fresh eyes can really propel your kid forward. And, get used to all of this being out of pocket, it's just the way it is. First, it is critical to stablize the kid. MUST DO the diet regardless of test results. In fact, I didnt bother proving a gluten intolerance or milk intolerance... I just did it. Heal the gut, clear the yeast, face down the constant bacteria that is causing your kids behaviors. These kids often have the immune system of an AIDS patient. Supplements - I did a full out biomedical supplement program which has over time become tailored and specific to his needs. At first, he was a wreck (although, I still laugh how his Ped had nothing to say about the initial labs I shared with him). A 3 year old with cholesterol of a 50 year old doesn't raise any flags? Come on, that's an easy one! While I did the hair analysis w/ 2 different labs, and urine test w/ dd, the test that gave me the clearest view of my son (and myself) mercury and to my surprise lead, pcb's pesticides... the French lab - Urine Porphyrine test - there is an parent interpretation paper on chelatingkids2 group files. You can order, do and interpret the test yourself. Although, any real good up to date DAN should want this test. This is the current gold standard in getting the best measurement of your kids' toxicity. Another avenue I highly recommend is Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. Get the book The Oxygen Revolution - Harsch. There are also a few good HBOT lists on . Join them and research by going backward, reading posts...your questions will be no different than the many who came before you. In September, we did 40 dives of hard chamber 100% oxygen at a facility. The results were nothing short of AMAZING! Everyones experience/outcome is going to be different. In my sons case, he no longer need the diet, bam! His overall health - he is a completely different child. Hyperbaric oxygen is expensive but look into it! And, when you do you will see that there is a controversy hard vs soft. Hard w/ 100% oxygen is the biggest bang for your buck. I only recommend the hard chamber - while their is a soft chamber manufacturer who is marketing hard, very convincing but keep your antenna up. My son has a ways to go. He is far more toxic than I originally thaught but he is improving. We are now working on a more aggressive chelation protocal with one of the top Dr.s in this field in the country. Never give up. Go with your GUT! HTH... I am so impressed with this list, what a wonderful evolution!
