Re: My Hair Test Results

DBLC- I'm really not sure what to make of your test. You have been under a great deal of stress in the last few months. You have also tested positive for lyme. You were previously on high dosages of D. Here are some comments from TEI from another client with a similar test.

CALCIUM (Ca)
The calcium test level is significantly above the ideal. This is not necessarily indicative of too
much calcium, but rather the calcium is not being made bio-available and/or utilized effectively.
If this mineral profile remains for an extended period of time, this patient may begin to
experience high calcium-related conditions such as; fatigue, dry skin and anemia. As calcium is
well known for its sedative effects upon the body's biochemical responses, both physical and
emotional, an excess may contribute to a reduced cellular metabolic rate and increased episodes of depression.

SOME FACTORS THAT MAY CONTRIBUTE TO HIGH CALCIUM LEVELS
The following factors can contribute to calcium accumulation, even if calcium intake is low:
Low Thyroid Function High Fat Intake
Excess Copper Intake Excessive Sugar Intake
Excessive Vitamin D Intake Vitamin Deficiencies
Low Phosphorus Intake High Carbohydrate Intake
Inadequate Protein Intake or Assimilation Low Adrenal Activity

HYDROCHLORIC ACID PRODUCTION AND PROTEIN DIGESTION
Your mineral profile may be reflective of a deficiency in hydrochloric acid (HCL) production,
which can result in inadequate protein digestion. Hydrochloric acid in sufficient amounts is
necessary for the complete digestion and utilization of dietary protein. Symptoms, such as,
bloating of the stomach, flatulence and constipation may be observed with an HCL deficiency,
especially following high protein meals.

MAGNESIUM (Mg)
Magnesium is the fourth most abundant metal found in the body, and is essential for muscle
relaxation, protein synthesis, nerve excitability and energy production on a cellular level.
However, magnesium also has a sedating effect upon the body, and when in excess may
contribute to a number of conditions, such as;
Low Blood Pressure Depression
Fatigue Dizziness
Craving for Salt Muscle Weakness
Decreased Mental Alertness Lowered Body Temperature

SOME FACTORS THAT MAY CONTRIBUTE TO HIGH TISSUE MAGNESIUM LEVELS
Some factors that may contribute to elevated magnesium other than possible excessive
magnesium intake, include;
High Carbohydrate Intake Low Adrenal Function
Vitamin B6 Deficiency Vitamin E Deficiency
Elevated Tissue Calcium HCL Deficiency
Hypothyroidism (Low Thyroid) Low Protein Intake


See if anything applies to you as a probable cause.
