That's good to know but it only answers half the question. So we know that mercury is the only heavy metal to cause derangement but what about nutritional and dietary factors? Our kids so commonly eat the same few items. Could that cause the mineral levels to be horribly skewed and deranged?

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 No, there is no host of reasons. As Andy has said in his book, the ONLY metal that causes deranged mineral transport if mercury. This does not happen no matter how much Lead or cadmium you ingest. Only mercury does this, just as it is also noted to be the only metal that causes adrenal fatigue. If he is majoring in this stuff, have him read Andy's book. It explains chemistry in relation to mercury and it's effects on the body. Basically, if a hair test has deranged minerals...there is no other explanation but mercury. > > Hi you guys, I was at my nephews house this 4th of July who is a pre-med > Junior in college and I was explaining to him about mercury poisoning and how to > check for it using a hair test.

Maybe there is something else, but noone has shown it yet. I find it helpful to go back and read the basics from time to time: http://home.earthlink.net/~moriam/HOW_TO_hair_test.html#counting_rules The other important fact is that people who have hair tests with deranged mineral transport get better when they chelate.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 In other > words couldn't even dietary habits contribute to our mineral counts being high > or low. High and low figures on hair results mean different things. However, I think deranged mineral transport relates pretty specifically to mercury toxic people. and since some of our kids eat such limited diets ....many eating > just the same few foods over and over, can we really expect their mineral counts > to be normal? Absolutely. Listen, if funky diets cause deranged mineral transport 80 to 90% of all American kids would show it. Do they? No. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Is it just Andy that says only mercury can cause mineral transport derangement, or does this info come from other sources as well? Has Andy ever explained how he arrived at that conclusion? Thanks, Dean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Hi , Do you have reasons to believe that your child(ren) have not been exposed to mercury? Have you posted their hair tests? What are the foods that they do eat? Are you giving any supplements? Which ones? S S > OK. That's good to know but it only answers half the question.

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Hair Test Interpretation pages 14, 124,101,105,106,109,6,111,117 are all in reference to deranged minerals. As per his words: " The fact that mercury causes deranged mineral transport appears to not be widely known in the medical community, leading some doctors (both alternative and mainstream) to veiw the hair elements test as unreliable. " Basically, it's not common knowlege unless you had a lot of chemistry studies in which you would learn it. As I understood in his books, most doctors take very little in the way of chemistry classes in college, so they don't have much knowledge of chemistry or how it plays into body function. Page 8 is a chapter on how mineral transport works, which helps to understand how it would be disrupted by mercury. The only other thing he notes that would cause disturbances in mineral transport are pregnancy and lactation. This would show up as an all low presentation of essential elements. Genetic or chromosomal defects can affect mineral transport to some effect, but usually do not. So the only way you could expect to find transport derangement is in a pregnant woman, or nursing woman, or mercury toxic person. Or someone with a very rare genetic condition..of which you would know they had already due to other problems. He also cites many old medical reference books throughout his books that you could check out at the library if you were interested in the chemistry. > > In a message dated 7/6/2007 10:47:20 AM Central Daylight Time, > _Shepard@... writes: > > > Consider reading Andy's Hair Test Interpreting book.

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 before finding this list, I researched " possible " causes alot, incld'g mercury...starting with tox fact sheets - by following ideas & facts & I don't even remember now - glutathione was one of the first " aha " items....soooo, anyway, everything Andy says, (so far), just confirms anything I have come up with on my own....(can we say possible " andy groupie?!! " lol.)....recently reminded of a site I did like when first gathering info -- and appears, at first " reacquainting " glance, that they are thinking along the same path as most people here, for the most part. www.drlwilson.com and Andy has explained mineral derangement alot - unfortunately, most of it is waaay beyond me, esp. the formulas & such....Moria's site is best when looking for " confirmation of information " type stuff, imo. hope you find your answers, elizabeth > > Is it just Andy that says only mercury can cause mineral transport > derangement, or does this info come from other sources as well?

They have a cure for that, however, it's called Graduate School where you learn even less about useful things like how to actually treat the actual patient and how to get your money out of the insurance companies so you can continue to treat patients.

I resemble that remark. I went to a " very good " liberal arts college in the Midwest and took lots of math, chemistry, and geology---got A's and B's. You'd never know it.

Guest guest Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 At one time, maybe still, competition to get into medical school was so keen that many premed students took the same chem, physics and math courses that the majors did, in order to have a competitive advantage. Personally, I took the 'major' track for general chem, quantitative analysis and organic; I took the biology version of physical chem. It is useful to keep in mind, also, that many students enter medical school as a second career path. I served my residency with a fellow who had been a chemical engineer and pharmaceutical chemist (with a PhD) prior to going to medical school, and in the small town where I live are at least three doctors who were engineers first (one petroleum, one mechanical, one EE), and a few who were pharmacists before going to medical school. While it is true that medical schools look for 'well-rounded' candidates, to suggest that there are no MDs grounded in scientific rigor is a decided overstatement.
