Guest guest Posted March 31, 2001 Report Share Posted March 31, 2001 Hi everyone, Does anyone have any thoughts as to which way (hair, urine, or blood) is the most accurate for testing for metals in a child? Thanks folks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 19, 2001 Report Share Posted May 19, 2001 I'm from Michigan and on the Detriot Fox 10:00 News there was a story about a boy that was all but recovered from Autism. He was put on a vitamin and mineral treatment after having metal testing done at Pfieffer Treatment Center. Its in Illinois somewhere and a Dr. Walsch is the man that was on T.V. The web address is www.hriptc.org for anyone who is interested. I think they do hair and blood analysis and the perscribe a regimine of vitamins and mineral. They actual had a name for the protien dysfunction. MT(metallothionein) Dysfunction. Good luck to anyone who tries it!

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2001 Report Share Posted May 19, 2001 Metallothionine (MT) is a protein that helps the body clear toxic metals. Several months I posted the study that found 499 out of 503 people with autism were lacking this protein. Why this lack occurs and the best way to address it are debated. It is known that mercury suppresses MT. The recent news articles about MT related back to the study. You can search the archives for it, search www.feat.org, or email me privately. IMHO, this is one more reason why people with ASD need to scrren for heavy metal toxicity. > I'm from Michigan and on the Detriot Fox 10:00 News there was a story > about a boy that was all but recovered from Autism.
