Re: Blood test and smell like metal

Hi again!

I have just had another look at my hair analysis results and i appear to have excess tin in my system (amongst other things- Antimony,Bismuth,Uranium,mercury (I used to have 1 filling),magnesium) I think you have to take hair analysis with a pinch of salt as your hair is exposed to a number of different things but it is still very intersting. I also found this info on Tin excess on this website:

The main sources of exposure to tin are food and water. Other possible sources include rodenticides/pesticides, dental amalgams, preservatives (stannous chloride), anticorrosive plating, wood fungicides, some toothpastes (tin fluoride) and some cosmetics. Excess tin in the body can be associated with: Hyperglycemia, headaches, fatigue and muscle aches, decreased sense of smell, ataxia/vertigo and neurodegenerative disease (myelin basic protein).

I do suffer from these things: headaches, fatigue and muscle aches, decreased sense of smell although looking at excess copper the symptoms are more similar to how i feel:

Let me know your thoughts on these? Have you ever smoked? I am taking activated carbon which can bind with bad substances in your system (doctors use it to clear out people systems if they have been poisioned) and I have noticed my headaches decreased and my energy levels have increased!!
