Re: My 1st retest with TEI

As someone who has dumped quite a bit of copper over the last 4 plus years, there isn't a correlation with potassium on my retests. My potassium has ranged from the highest of 21 to 3. There is a more direct correlation with calcium. Often, but not always, my calcium has increased when my copper has. My husband recently dumped some copper...it wasn't a lot, but our practitioner said the fact that his calcium dropped from 167 to 134 indicated a good decrease in copper. He seems to be a poor eliminator so looking at other indicators sometimes reveals more about what is really happening with him.

That is great that your copper went from 5.4 to 1.2. And, yes, you're probably right that more will come out. NB really is like peeling an onion...lots of layers to achieve real, lasting healing. Also, the fact that your Na/K increased from .54 to 1.89 shows your vitality ratio is improving. Whenever that ratio is less than 2.50, the body is breaking down its own tissues. I started out there, but, fortunately, didn't stay there very long. But I did retrace that after about 3 years on NB...in fact, I retraced many of my individual minerals and ratios on that test.
