Re:
a few questions....

Hi Lloyd;
I can't afford your whole program, but for about a year and a half I
have been taking many of your recommended products. My Liver seems to
be doing somewhat better. Anyway, my Enzymes are in the 40's with the
viral load down by over 4 million. I am stage 0-1. So that is really good.
But, I am still very tired though.
My Alternative doctor says my Adrenal glands are in stage 3 failure (
according to a 24 hr. saliva test) basically he says that they not working
at all. I inquired about glandulators. He says he no longer uses the glandular,
that they cause too much stimulation. So, he put me on DHEA, plus adrenal
support supplements & liquid licorice extracts. What do you think
about that?
Also > about iron over load > what is technically considered iron
over load? My alternative doc didn't think my levels seemed too high and
wasn't very concerned. Should I be concerned? Here's my results:
Normal ranges
( in this lab ) |
|
| Iron 153 | 55-165 |
| Total Iron binding capacity 321 | 250-400 |
| Percentage Iron Saturation 47% | 15%-45% |
| Transferrin 308 | 175-350 |
As you can see the Iron Saturation is the only one considered elevated.
But I have kept track of all my labs & my iron levels have been climbing
almost every 6 months. Two years ago they were quite a bit lower. Is this
still considered healthy or should I be concerned about the Elevated Saturation?
I don't eat much red meat at all. Organic chicken & Alaskan salmon,
no red meat. I have extremely good eating habits, low body fat, ect.
Any information you can send would be great.
God Bless, Sue
Hi Sue:
Get a ferritin test. You should get it in the bottom of the range, usually
about 20.
This can help relieve the tiredness.
You lower it with IP6.
Glandular are the best way to help your adrenal gland. Check out my CF
Solution. It is the best there is. If you
do not like it, I will send you another box for free.
I think that is funny but that is the guarantee that Atrium made
for it.
Are you taking any hormones?, progestrome cream?
These will raise the ferritin level.
Salmon is full of mercury, so is tuna and most other fish, the bigger,
the worse it is.
Here's
an article on it from the FDA.
In good health
