Guest guest Posted July 20, 2004 Report Share Posted July 20, 2004 i gave you the link with my info on i am not keen on the brainchilds liquid zinc becsue it is a yeast feeding citrate if i can make a comment , disillusionment with medical testing and docotrs advice is part of the learning curve to making improvements thats you have to pick up the ball and do some of the research and thinking yourself. 'copper and zinc' in http://tinyurl.com/2csa3 as i posted in another post you have to pick up the burden of understanding to the point of being able to be fuzzy about the supplementation, its in fuzzyness that you get high metaboilc gain, rules and doctors visits only get more doctors vists and marginal improvements compared to what might be achieved. about half way down the copper and zinc page is a short form titled LATEST UPDATE ON THE ZINC AND COPPER AM TAKING but the rest of the page really needs to be read. the anerican view of things seems to be if its free its worthless, if you pay its worth something. > Hello everybody, > > I just have a question in regards with Zn and Co. > Since the first test that I have done with my son last year before we > started the regiment of supplements and GFCF diet he showed very high > levels of Co.

Some kids with high copper, need added copper to get the copper levels down. Also, remove sources of copper in your son's diet and environment http://www.danasview.net/metals.htm Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 I would like to thank again and Dana for sharing their opinion. as every child is different and react diferrently to supplements is very hard to figure out, even if you know the theory of it. It's so helpful to have other parents opinions and advices to double check and make sure that you get on the right track.
