's DDI Test Results

[Guest guest]

Just got my son's, , hair results back. He is 7 years old,

ASD. He is verbal, with no gut or sleeping problems. He seems to

meet the counting rule of 4 essential elements in the red. He seems

to be very deficient in zinc, calcium, and if I read things right,

the low cobalt means low B12. I want to start chelation ASAP, but I

need to get his supplements started first. How long should I

supplement before chelation considering the low levels? I am very

concerned about the levels of uranium (red). Does anyone know what

can be done about this? I believe the elevated levels of chromium

to be hexavalent chrome (I am exposed to this at work). I worked at

an industrial wastewater treatment plant the first 5 weeks of

pregnancy, and now am an aircraft sheetmetal mechanic. That

explains a lot of the toxic elements. I have posted a pic of the

test results in case the list below doesn't come out well.

I appreciate any help you could give.

Thanks!
