Re: Help with interpreting hair element result please

[Guest guest]

On a side note: What chocolate do you use if you are dairy free?

We are having an issue with this here in my house.

(Sorry have not looked at the hair test, yet)

We have gotten those and my family eats them, but they are pricey here. So, I am

looking for alternatives. My hubbie is a choc-aholic. My kids inherited it.

we use gluten/diary free chocolate available in the free form section of UK

supermarkets.

[Guest guest]

Dark chocolate is often dairy free. You still have to read labels, but the

higher the cocoa content the less likely it will contain any dairy. Soy is

another story, though.

Enjoy life makes awesome nut, dairy, soy free semi-sweet chocolate chips.

If you have an ALDI store, someone told me they sell single origin dark

chocolate bars that are really good (Equador). I don't know the ingredient

list, but it is worth a stop in there if you have one.

Hello Roy

This test meets the counting rules for mercury with 4 elements in the red along

with mild to moderate adrenal stress with possibly not enough adrenaline being

made.

The potassium to Calcium ratio is a little out of range which may suggest

thyroid problems or copper excess, obviously copper excess is more likely with

regards to this test.

Giving Zinc, Molybdenum and milk thistle should help to reduce Copper and maybe

some Taurine.

The Ca/Mg may suggest some problems with blood sugar regulation as it is

slightly out of range.

This test also suggests that supplementing b6 might be a good idea.

The prority IMO would be AC protocol chelation for mercury along with supporting

supps.

I might be wrong but I think that Andy has said and I quote

" Chocolate is a big problem for a lot of these kids. Note that it is actually

one of the dietary restrictions that did well on the ARI survey. "

All the best

Kenny

Could some one kindly give a comment on the result posted in file section -

'HairTests' folder '_Cherian_HairElementResult.pdf '.

It is not strictly meeting any counting rules except 'Step 2' mentioned in

http://home.earthlink.net/~moriam/HOW_TO_hair_test.html

Three essential elements are very elevated (Calcium, Copper, Strontium) but

Chromium is on the borderline(just about touching the very low line).

Any comment on this will be greatly appreciated ?

Thanks a lot Kenny.

Just saw your reply while typing another message seeking help. We did a urinary

porphyrin test a few months back and it showed Mercury toxicity.

Do I have to wait for copper level to go low or start AC chelation with DMSA

straightaway ?

Hello Roy

Providing that supporting supps are in place chelation can begin as soon as you

are ready assuming that there are no ongoing sources such as metal fillings.

ALA can cause some retention of copper but I'm pretty sure that Andy has said it

would still be wise or words to this effect to chelate mercury with ALA.

Chelating with DMSA should not affect copper, so in short chelation is

recommended when you feel that you are ready, but taking steps to reduce copper

at the same time may well help.

Regards

Kenny

We have to worry about dairy more than soy here. 8(

Anyone have a tried and true chocolate fudge recipe that is dairy free?
