@cs3000 said in My wild IdeaLabs nail test results - opinions ?:
so maybe ok considering very low ng concentration but for a boost with whats left a round of lipoic acid might be worth a try for a couple weeks. and avoiding zinc supplements during this time as seems to help retention (but needs replenishing after ofc). and 1g vit C a day might help (helps lead excrete a lot at least)
Sulfur groups bind it like the other heavy metals https://www.researchgate.net/publication/341867829_Investigating_the_role_of_sulfate_groups_for_the_binding_process_of_gadolinium_ions_in_glycosaminoglycans
(so lipoic acid which has 2 sulfur groups, msm, thiamine might be useful , as such low amounts from the macrocylcic type probably best not to take high amounts for long as run the risk of needed metal depletion, maybe a couple weeks would be significant)Im not sure about lipoic acid. know that peat thought it might lead to heavy metal deposition in even more harmful places, althugh i dont understand why that wouldnt be the case with lets say, citric acid from orange juice or lactic acid from yoghurt...but given the relatively small amount of heavy metals ill probably skip it
theres this video of a guy going around who said he lowered his heavy metals by 75% using MSM so that might be something Ill try.

So far I feel like antioxidants help me the most and molybdenum for some reason ... -

@Mauritio ray said once that toetails would be a pretty reliable metric from steroid analysis if you wear closed toed shoes most of the time. did you do finger nails?
-
@samson they urge you to send in both ,because of the amount.
-
@Mauritio seems like an oversight on georgis part. ray pretty explicitly said that hair and fingernails wouldn't be very reliable, as they're constantly exposed to outside contamination
-
@samson could be . I don't know how much of those they use or of they're just back up in case toe nails arent enough

@Mauritio let us know (if you don’t mind) when you find one please.. would have to be a zoom/phone-friendly one or the like. Anyone know what ever happened to heroico on the old forum? S/He seemed like a possibility, but might be busy with grandkids by now.

@16charactersitis not sure what you're talking about ? Is this relevant to this thread ?

@Mauritio was referring to you saying you were looking for a peaty practitioner
