Hair Analysis + Boron, Copper and Molybdenum

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I read about boron in a recent digest.

My son's boron also came out high, and his copper is high, too. The only

fruit

he has been eating is pears, and just in the last week we added back

bananas.

He only eats pears because of the lack of phenols in pears. Is not it

ironic

that the very thing will then increase his sensitivity to phenols?

His Molybdenum came out very low. I remember reading something about it.

Could

somebody point me to any information that was collected about it on this

board?

His Potassium is also very high.

His high copper causes his iron/copper ration be very low, which

indicates

susceptibility to anaemia, and he is often very pale. In fact after

Zyme, he had

a better complexion for a while, but now he is palish again.

Now I have to go and solve this puzzle of how to put back balance into

his body.

What's more, I started to give him a multivitamin (Macro Multi M)

suggested by

the nutritionist, this brand apperantly is well tolerated by sensitive

people.

But he was more stimmy yesterday then for a long while. I will watch out

for

this sign, and stop the multi. I do not even believe in multi vitamins,

their

content is not balanced the way most individuals would need it,

especially an

ASD kid.

Interestingly, the hair analysis lab gave a description of the

conditions that

could arise from the given mineral levels and ratios. They listed:

tissue acidity

hyperactivity

hyperexcitable

perspires easily

allergies

anemia

depression

The following are extracts from the report (InterClinical Laboratories,

PO Box

630, Gladsville NSW 2111 Australia Ph: 612 9211 2200, email

lab@...):

Allergies and copper:

The mineral copper is a contituent of the enzyme histaminasea nd the

protein

ceruloplasm, both of which have the ability to destroy histamine. Zinc

is

required for the storage of histamine. Since the zinc level is low to

copper, or

the tissue copper level is elevated, a low serum histamine may be

present. This

may result in histamine depletion if chronic. Low histamine levels have

been

found in teh serum of patients who suffer from allergies to food and

inhalants.

Depression and high copper:

High tissue copper has been associated with an increased incidence of

depression. The causative role of excess copper in depression may be due

to its

producing neurotransmitter imbalances in the brain, or its interfering

with

other nutrient minerals such as iron, zinc and manganese.

Hyperactivity and excess copper:

High tissue copper has been associated with hyperactivity, especially in

the

fast metabolizer (type of metabolizer is concluded from the mineral

ratios).

High copper is also associated with insomnia, temper tantrums and

intermittent

hyperactivity.

I think I will start a new hobby (lol). I will collect all knowledge

about

minerals, vitamins and other nutrients and their cross influences on

each other.

The knowledge in this area sounds so incredibly scattered. Or maybe I

just did

not come across good research and good literature.

Also, the knowledge of the allergy specialist and the nutritionist I

work with,

seems non-existent in this area. How can that be?

Anyway, just another area where the only person you can trust is

yourself.

This pisses me off. We pay so much money on health care, but apart from

the

common cold, and some other common illnesses, what can they do for us?

Not even

that, I would not even follow the common cold treatments any more.

I am more an more convinced that this whole ASD is a 100% metabolism

issue. How

do you compare that with the comment our child psychiatrist made to me

after the

diagnosis:

" Ah, and those biological interventions... Do not believe in them, they

are

waste of time. This is a neurological condition (eg a brain damage), and

it is

there for life, it is not curable. "

How come, my " brain damaged " child just made it to IQ 119 without making

an

effort to show up all his capabilities and his ATEC (or APEC?) score

went down

to 17 from 39 (and it must have been around 60 a couple of years ago)

just from

careful dieting, a couple of supplements (calcium/magnesium) and

Zymeprime.

We have not even done any of the more serious and promising

interventions!!!

Anyway,

TELL ME ABOUT THE NO PHENOL. I constantly get the blank on this. Is it

something that exists??? I even asked Devin, no answer...

Cheers,

Elvira,

Elvira,

Just wanted to say ditto to everything you wrote!!! And, I too would

like to hear more about the No Phenol product. I imagine the info.

is scarce because others may try to replicate this product. But, I'm

very interested to hear what all it works on.

God Bless (and keep up the good work!)

Well, not on this board, but molybdenum has been helpful for some kids

for phenol issues.

Bananas I believe are high potassium, so you might want to remove them

again, or at least limit his eating of them.

Zinc helps with copper issues. [be sure to type the last Q on the end

of this link, it is long]

Is it a children's chewable vitamin? If so, perhaps it is the

flavors/colors, which are high phenol, which is causing your child to

have problems.

Yes

My son's ATEC went from 98 to 26, and this was BEFORE chelation!

Well Devin has not been answering me lately either, so don't take it

too personally. I mean, I am the one who actually OFFERED HER KIDS AS

INITIAL TEST SUBJECTS FOR NO-FENOL ENZYME, THEN SET UP THE TRIALS FOR

IT SO HE COULD TEST IT WITH OTHER KIDS, so if he won't even answer

*me*, then don't be too upset LOL

[Hey Devin, where is my royalty check??????????????????? LOL, never

mind, you are not answering me right now....]

It is a new enzyme product, it helps my kids with many fruits [altho

not all] and also artificial colors/flavors, plus medications which

say " may cause excitability and sleeplessness, especially in

children " . Wonderful stuff. Should be commercially available in

April. Keep harrassing him, especially when April gets here.
