Great you are feeling good lately! Congrats! I've heard this is a common detox symptom of copper. I know Feo66 is loaded with copper too. Maybe he's had a similar experience.

Someone just posted about chaga mushroom a couple days ago and upon doing some research about it I found it's supposed to be really good for the skin and even cures psoriasis. Maybe it would be worth a shot.

When I first started working on copper detox, my skin looked like someone 90 years old.

It was so dry and scaly that I stopped going for massages since I was so embarrassed.

It could be due to very poor clearance of the toxinss

I can't remember if you are with TEI or ARL/Wilson, and I apologize for suggesting the following if you are not with wilson.

For me, doing the coffee enemas really helped my clearance. I've recently added liver/gallbladder flushes as well.

But yes ....detoxing can make your skin worse for a while since it can backlog your liver

Inti- this does sound like low thyroid. What is your Ca/K ratio?


Calcium/Potassium (Ca/K) Ratio:
•Called the thyroid ratio because calcium and potassium play a vital role in regulating thyroid activity.
•Does not always correlate with blood thyroid tests because hair analysis is a tissue test. Often blood tests will be normal but hair analysis will indicate an impaired thyroid function. Sometimes symptoms of hypothyroidism may be evident, but the hair test will show a hyperactive thyroid ratio. For nutritional correction, it is prudent to follow the hair analysis indication.

Ideal Calcium/Potassium Ratio is 4:1:
•A calcium/potassium ratio of less than 4:1 is indicative of increased thyroid activity.
•The thyroid gland is one of the major glands which regulate metabolic rate in the body. A hyperactive thyroid is associated with fast metabolism.
•When the thyroid (and adrenal) ratios are not normal, the efficiency of energy production in the body decreases. It is like an engine that is turning too slow or too fast - power output declines.

Symptoms of Reduced Thyroid Activity Include:
•Tendency to gain weight
•Cold hands and feet - tendency to feel cold
•Lack of sweating
•Fatigue
•Dry skin and dry hair
•Tendency towards constipation

Symptoms of Overactive Thyroid Activity Include:
•Excessive sweating
•Hyperactivity, irritability
•Nervousness
•Oily hair and skin
•Occasional tendency towards frequent bowel movements or diarrhea during times of stress
