Re: got hair analysis back
>yes, i believe we did have the same test. mine was by Trace Elements.
it gave the same range yours did.
The ranges are supposed to be age/sex specific, so they may vary slightly.
>why do you think the cal/mag is so high and the barium & tin are high?
High hair calcium is a classic sign of mercury toxicity. High hair calcium actually means that you have *low* body calcium - i.e. your body isn't utilizing calcium properly. (this doesn't mean you should start taking lots of calcium mind you as this will probably make you feel worse, but I do recommend that you try taking magnesium supplements and see if that helps).
> also, why are all the "toxic elements" low (mercury for instance?).
this is so wierd.
Low mercury is actually a sign of mercury toxicity. Basically what mercury does (and what no other element does) is to mess up your mineral transport. This means that all your minerals look out of place (some too high, many too low). This is also why all your other toxic elements are low - mine are too.
> why barium? i drink bottled water....why tin? i don't even eat things out
of a can? and stronlium? i don't even know what that one is.
If it helps I have high strontium too (0.43, was 0.55). Don't think that because an element is high that means you are overdosing on that element. Not at all. Because you have deranged mineral profile many things will be off whack. For example I had elevated Titanium early on - at the time I thought I was eating too much titanium - but I found out recently that elevated Titanium is one of the first signs of mercury toxicity.
> thanx for all your help/knowlege here, what do you think i should be doing?
janey :-)
You've removed all
Amalgams right? Well the next thing would be to learn about how to chelate safely - basically this means following the Cutler protocol (which is what I plan on doing). I recommend you get hold of a copy of his book.

JV.
BTW how would you feel about having a forum here on curezone for people following the Cutler protocol? There seem to be an awful lot of people out there either suffering in silence or following dangerous protocols.
