What's More Accurate: Hair Test or Porphryins Test?

[Guest guest]

We had an elemental hair analysis done in January of this year. My son was high

in aluminum, antimoney, bismuth, and tin. We also had a porphryins test that

showed he was mildly mercury toxic.

We're seeing a new doctor now who doesn't use the hair test because he feels it

can be interpreted so differently. He thinks that metals aren't an issue since

his results came back mild. Is it worth us doing a hair test with DDI? I know

that he is metal toxic. He clearly has the signs.

Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Tara

===>Porphyrin tests measure only body burden or what's in the kidneys, they do

not measure whats in the brain/cns. So you cannot use the levels they provide,

you can only read them as toxic or nontoxic. Your new dr is not informed, don't

listen to him/her.

Hi Tara,

If the doc you're seeing doesn't believe metals are an issue but you do then it

sounds like you'll be chelating on your own. How many mercury amalgam dental

fillings does your son have? If any, they need to be removed using proper

protocol before you can safely chelate. Please use Andy Cutler's protocol

if/when you decide to chelate.
