Re: hair elements test (Doctor's data) when taking minerals

[Guest guest]

It will have an effect, but it wont' totally obscure what is going on (and

there is a lot that of information can be gotten out of a hair test).

So, test away!

Hi,

would taking mineral supplements hide imbalances needed for counting

rules? I am planning to do hair elements test from Doctor's Data.

Also, since I started something (I suspect minerals), my kids

accelerated growth of teeth. Daughter (5.5, ASD) just had her first

tooth out, and the new one growing behind the curent tooth line. I

googled it, and doctors several websites said that it often adjusts. Son

(10, NT) had 4 teeth fallen out, his dentist noted that he is on the

early side.

I would apprecite any insight on this.

Thanks!

Elen,

Supplementation will sometimes obscure the counting rules as it did

for us. My DS's first hair test when he was 2.5 met 2 counting rules

and showed seriously high copper. At the time we were only

supplementing with fish oil and a gummy bear type multi. Then, We

addressed the copper problem by adding zinc, added epsom salt baths,

seriously addressed his yeast problem and added Vit E. The next hair

test and the 2 we've done since then DO NOT meet the counting rules

even though I know he has a mercury problem. However, the test does

allow me to monitor his copper/zinc and can highlight adrenal/thyroid

issues and allow you to see issues at the top with metals too.
