Guest guest Posted October 24, 2006 Report Posted October 24, 2006 Hi, I'm new to the group and have just received my 6 year old son's hair test. If I've understood it correctly this test doesn't meet the counting rules (unless someone here is able to interpret it otherwise). I'm very concerned about the high aluminium/tin/total toxic representation. I'd really appreciate any advice on how to interpret these results and any first steps I could take to help him. Also I've been supplementing him with Brainchild's SSII minerals/vitamins and Liquizinc for about 18 months now. I'm wondering, given these results, if I'm going to have to adopt a system of supplementing using more individual products rather than multi vitamins/minerals. What are the implications of high molybdenum/low selenium? I've also included the ratios given which I don't really understand. Any help is much appreciated!
