Doctor's Data Hair Elements results-- Andy help understanding, please

[Guest guest]

Hi, I just got the results back on my 15 year old son's hair test.

I was reading the links info about hair testing, and am a little

confused about his results, as he has no amalgams, and last

vaccinations were when he was 4 1/2, yet his mercury (and lead) are

elevated. Also, can these test results be used to guide

supplementation in any way? Thank you so much for your help.
