The textbooks are ambiguous on this, some readings may suggest a test over 20 is confirmatory. You can do the challenge test FIRST and if they complain then do the unchallenged tests later. The tests don't have to be in order. If you get a good high score on the challenge test, you won't have to do anything else. > I would prefer to do only the challenge part of the test but it > would probably not be sufficient to prove THEM I'm mercury poisoned > and need a break plus insurance to detox from it. Detox with ALA and a few basic supps like Mg, Zn and vitamins C and E is very cheap. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
