Guest guest Posted April 22, 2002 Report Share Posted April 22, 2002 ; Here are comments directly from the " Ask Dr Goldberg " section of Dr G's website regarding how he feels about test results: I am at this point VERY skeptical re Great Plains lab. I seriously question the significance or validity of many of the “interpretations” being made, and wonder is there any REAL standardization of “normals” for many of the “metabolic” tests they are running. I would welcome seeing such data, but without it (since most university specialists have difficulty with the accuracy of these measurements, I strongly doubt the significance of many of the tests now being run) much of what Great Plains is presently doing as VERY “shaky.” Take care, MJG _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 As far as I know most accurate is Organic acid Test . I am not sure how blood test would show yeast in the intestines and w/t the stool test  ,the sample that You collected may not have the yeast present . So the best way is w/t  Urine Organic Acids  test ,where the arabinose markers will indicate yeast overgrowth ! Nora Bunis -Stuart From: lahlah66 <lahlah66@...> Subject: [ ] Tests for Yeast Date: Sunday, November 14, 2010, 1:21 AM  Hi, My son has tics which I thought might be caused by yeast overgrowth. He has had a stool test and blood test for yeast (both from Metametrix) and both showed no signs of yeast. Can I safely assume then that yeast is not the cause of the tics?

Guest guest Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 Oops, my mistake Nora. It was not a blood test, but Organix urine test, that was part of the comprehensive pediatric ION panel from Metametrix. It tested for D-Arabinatol, which showed no sign of yeast. I got confused because he had lots of blood drawn too for the ION panel to test for lots of other stuff like fatty acid, nutrient elements, toxic elements, etc. So if the urine test showed no signs of yeast overgrowth, is it safe to say that the tics are not being caused by yeast? I think they are more metal-related, as his hair tests are showing elevated levels of all sorts of things (aluminum, nickel, tin, arsenic, etc.) > > From: lahlah66 <lahlah66@...> > Subject: [ ] Tests for Yeast > > Date: Sunday, November 14, 2010, 1:21 AM > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Â > > > > > > > > > > Hi, > > My son has tics which I thought might be caused by yeast overgrowth.

Guest guest Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 You might also do the comprehensive stool analysis. It shows yeast and also what can be used to kill it. nancy j.
