Re: Molybdenum, uric acid connection

[Guest guest]

Thank you so very much for your input!!!! Few years ago my hair

analysis showed high level of Urea or Uric acid and I still remember

my doctor comments, " Don't know why so many chemically sensitive

people have high levels of this... "

My current physician uses ARL lab for hair analysis, Is it OK to use it?

How can I order DD hair kit? Do I need a doctor to order this?

Thanks in adavnce!!!

Regards,

Sunny

tolerating a small dose reminded me that I forgot to comment on the

uric acid connection, and totally spaced this out in my earlier

discussions about this! Duh!

have now taken too much molybdenum, she mentioned that the next time I

have lab work done, that we can test my uric acid levels, which

evidentally has some correlation to molybdenum levels/needs. And Andy

also talks about this in the Mark Schauss interview, when he talks

about testing.

the Files section, thanks to Ross and for getting this

done! And I copied the part where Andy talks about uric acid levels

and molybdenum, and there relationship to mercury and lead.

probably be good to get your uric acid levels tested. And this might

be something you could get your regular doctor to do, because uric

acid is related to gout, and is something they will test. And just a

sidenote, in HTI, And does say that gout is common with lead

poisoning. And so, according to this, molybdenum *isn't* good for

everyone, but probably for alot of us, and the uric acid test is one

way of determining this.-------Jackie
