This article is for those who do not work with us and who are doing their own hair test interpretation. We do not recommend this because 1) interpretation is very complex, 2) we can only get readings for about 20-40 minerals, and 3) none of the labs are accurate enough.
There was a time about 40 years ago that I thought I could do the programs myself. But I realized I am not smart enough to set up the programs myself and about 28 years go I quit doing this work altogether.
I began again a few years later when someone helped me learn to tune into guidance. That was better, but the programs were still not very good until about 6 years ago when I learned to tune in to planning souls. This is still somewhat difficult to do.
The planning souls are very advanced souls that read 80-90 minerals, and they tell me what to recommend. The nutrition programs are theirs, not mine and not Dr. Eck's.
ORGANIZATION OF THIS ARTICLE
This article is designed for someone who wants to use the computer program at Analytical Research Labs (or ARL) as the basis for the diet and supplement programs. I think this is often better than doing it all by yourself.
THE MINERAL TESTING LABORATORY
We don't have an excellent lab to recommend at this time. ARL was quite good, but now their numbers are coming in too low. We explain this below.
We still recommend ARL for tissue mineral testing. The reasons are:
1. Their graph is the best. There is a special way the minerals need to be arranged on the page in order to interpret the test correctly. Other labs do not present the numbers as well. To read more about this important problem, read Controversy In Hair Mineral Testing.
2. Their ideal values are among the best, although they are not all correct, in our view. Some labs do not even list ideal values. These are needed for the method of interpretation we suggest. For a list of the ideal values we use, read Ideal Mineral Levels In Human Hair – Ideals, Ranges, Toxicity and Poor Eliminators.
3. Their interpretation profiles are better than others. However, they are missing many mineral patterns.
4. Their supplement recommendations are better than that of most other labs. However, they need the modifications discussed below.
5. Their brand of supplements, called Endomet Labs, are quite good, better than most others. Beware of false advertising of supplements and know that many excellent natural product companies are being secretly bought out by drug companies. They are cheapening and damaging some products secretly, such as those by Shaklee, Carlson, Standard Process and many others.
6. Customer service is very good.
7. Accuracy is better than some labs such as Doctor's Data. However, accuracy at ARL is not as good as in the past. When we ask about it, we are told nothing has changed and they are not washing the hair.
However, starting in February of 2024, when we check carefully, the numbers are all low. The readings of the water soluble elements, sodium and potassium, are somewhat lower than the others. The worst readings are iron, manganese, aluminum and nickel. These are sometimes extremely reduced.
IMPORTANT NOTE: You must increase the hair tissue readings from ARL because we find they are too low. For calcium and magnesium, increase them by about 25-50%. For sodium and potassium, increase these by 100% or a little more.
CHANGING THE PROGRAMS
The following suggestions are divided into changes for all programs, followed by specifics for fast and slow oxidizers, and a few other situations.
II. CHANGES FOR ALL HAIR ANALYSIS CHARTS
1. Dietary Aids. Use GB-3 at all times unless it causes diarrhea or severe cramping. There are at least 6 or 7 reasons why this product is superior to Betaine HCl-pepsin that the computer recommends currently, at times. Sometimes the computer fails to recommend any digestive aid. Always give GB-3, if possible. To read more about GB-3, click here.
Children: Most young children and even some babies enjoy a little GB-3 ground up in their food. Older children may not like its taste and smell, unfortunately.
Exceptions: If a client cannot tolerate even 1/2 a GB-3 per meal, substitute Enz-aid or Betaine Hcl-pepsin. These could also be used along with GB-3, but this is not necessary in most cases. Eventually, give GB-3 to everyone, if at all possible, as it has many benefits.
2. Omit Endo-C-1000, Endo A-C, Super Vital E, Pyridox, Thym-adren and Magnesium in most instances.
I think they are less needed and all are more yin, which causes problems. Some of all these are in Megapan and other Metabolic Paks. All these products are helpful in certain circumstances, but not for most people.
3. Add EPA-DHA 300 at a dose of 1-1-1 to all adult programs. Everyone needs about 1200 mg daily of extra omega-3 essential fatty acids. Deficiency of the omega-3 fatty acids has to do with farming and livestock practices, the widespread use of vegetable oils, and perhaps other factors. This is not an optional product today.
Exceptions. This supplement is not needed if one consistently eats three or four cans of sardines weekly. Salmon and tunafish also contain omega-3 fatty acids, but they are too high in mercury to recommend. Everyone who eats salmon or tunafish on a regular basis has high mercury levels on their hair mineral tests, in my experience. This is sad, but true.
Supplements of hemp or flaxseed oils are fair, not be as good as the fish oil. I do not recommend products containing omega -3,6,9 and I do not recommend krill oil, as it is somewhat toxic.
Children over the age of about 4 also need some omega-3 fatty acids. In fact, it is a very important product for children.
Pregnant and lactating women all definitely need 1200 mg of extra omega-3 fatty acids. Overlooking this fact by the medical doctors and public health authorities and the government, especially during pregnancy, is basically criminal.
4. Add 4000-5000 iu daily of vitamin D3 for all adults. Most people need far more vitamin D than is contained in foods, most supplements including those from Endomet Labs, and that which one can get from sunbathing or living out of doors. This needs to be added to the nutritional programs. Endomet Labs sells an excellent 5000 iu vitamin D3 capsule. However, the computer does not recommended it for anyone at this time.
Children older than about 4 years old also need a supplement of vitamin D. They may take 5000 iu once a week if under age 10 or so, and one every other day if older than 9 or 10.
Exceptions. I have seen no exceptions to the need for vitamin D3.
5. Kelp. – Add six capsules of about 600 mg each, or about a teaspoon of kelp granules or powder to most all adult programs, as tolerated, but only the following brands: Endomet, Country Life Arctic Kelp tablets (must take about 16-18 tablets daily) or Frontier Herbs or Starwest granules or powder.
Some Other brands, sadly, are toxic for some reason. This may have to do with drug companies buying natural food companies and ruining the products. To read more about this awful trend, click here.
Kelp is a wonderful source of all the important minerals to help remineralize the body. It is also an excellent natural source of iodine, a mineral most people are deficient in due to their diets, but mainly due to exposure to excessive chlorides, bromides and fluorides in the air, water and food.
Kelp may help correct a low thyroid condition faster than any other single product. While it is found in several other products often used on nutritional balancing programs, there is simply not enough of it found there and a supplement is helpful for most everyone.
Capsules or granules are the best ways to take it because the tablets are so small that one needs to take 15 or so daily to obtain enough. The granules may be cooked with other foods, if desired, but have a slightly bitter taste.
Children. Children over the age of about 2 or 3 may need a very small amount of kelp.
Exceptions: If kelp causes a reaction it is usually a detoxification reaction with removal of the iodine antagonists – chlorine, bromine and fluorine. Just start with a small amount and work up slowly as one is able to do so.
If one is taking medication for hypothyroidism, the dose of medication may need to be reduced if kelp causes nervousness. If kelp interferes with sleep, do not take the evening capsule or take more in the morning or at noon. Patients with Grave’s disease or hyperthyroidism may not tolerate it as well.
6. Endo-pan. The computer recommends this product. Do not use it. Instead, use the same amount of Zinc.
Also, the computer may only recommend up to 3 per day. If the sodium/potassium ratio is greater than 20:1, increase to four per day or even more if the ratio is above 40.
7. Renamide. This is a very good product that is helpful for basically everyone, and absolutely necessary for those with kidney failure or high toxic metal levels.
Children: A small amount is good over age 4.
Exceptions: none.
8. Optional - Replace Paramin with MCHC plus magnesium if the client is osteoporotic. MCHC or micro-crystalline hydroxyapatite crystals, is a bone extract specifically designed to help build strong bones. However, it is more costly and one must give magnesium with it, as it does not contain nearly enough, which means one must give more pills. This is why it is optional only.
Dosage: Give about 1-1-2 MCHC instead of Paramin (2-2-2). NOTE: in September 2024, Endomet reduced the dosage of calcium and magnesium in Paramin, so one needs to take about 2-2-2 rather than 1-1-1, as previously. Instead one can take a different cal/mag that has a higher potency.
Be sure to add Magnesium (1-1-1) with MCHC to balance the calcium/magnesium ratio. I hope some day the magnesium will be added to the MCHC, which is otherwise a superb formula.
Exceptions: none.
PROGRAM CHANGES FOR SLOW OXIDIZERS
1. Use Megapan all the time
Dosage: 1-1-1 to 2-2-2.
Exceptions:
1. With sympathetic dominance pattern. In this case, reduce the dosage to 1-1-1 or even less.
2. Four highs. Use only 1-1-1.
3. Very mild slow oxidation or some other reason the person might go into fast oxidation. Use less.
2. Give either Endo-dren or Thyro-complex, but not both. The computer sometimes recommends both products. They are both excellent, but both are rarely needed and giving both adds cost and inconvenience.
CHANGES FOR FOUR LOWS PATTERN
Do not give Megapan or SBF to those in a four lows program. The computer was changed, I believe, after Dr. Eck’s death to add these, at times. Dr. Eck’s original concept for this difficult pattern of body chemistry consists of ONLY:
Read four lows pattern.
OTHER IMPORTANT ADDITIONS OR CHANGES TO THE ARL COMPUTERIZED REPORTS
1. Diet. Follow the Diet For Rapid Development found at Food For Daily Use.
2. Water. The best is spring water or carbon-only or sand-filtered only tap water if safe. Avoid reverse osmosis water, “drinking water”, “purified water”, and all alkaline waters. Read labels and do not be fooled by fancy names for reverse osmosis water such as Dasani or others.
3. Adults need a daily amount of about 10-12 ounces of carrot juice, NOT MORE, and not green juice, though you can add a few greens to it. The carrot juice provides a form of readily available calcium. It also provides many other essential minerals and vitamins. A substitute is one or two ounces of wheat grass juice, but do not combine this with carrot juice on the same day. Cautions with juicing are:
- Use a real juicer, not a Vitamix or other blender. Blenders do not break up the carrots enough and they mix it with too much water and air, which is not desirable.
- Do not add fruit to your vegetable juice.
- Limit juice to 10-12 ounces daily. More can make the body too yin in some cases and can interfere with digestion.
- Do not eat when drinking the carrot juice. Wait at least 15 minutes afterwards before eating a meal to let it digest a little.
4. For severe depression, if necessary, add more Megapan. You may always give some extra B-complex to anyone who is severely depressed and possibly suicidal. This is mainly to protect the patient and the practitioner in the very rare case that a person harms himself or others. B-complex can relieve the stress the depressed person feels.
Dosage: Use more Megapan, up to 4-4-4 or A B-complex pill.
These are not in the ARL computerized reports at all. However, they are fabulous, as many clients report to us, and may be added to most programs. The only exceptions are listed below:
1. Coffee enemas. These are the most important healing procedure today. They have dozens of benefits, including protection from Rogue rapes and beatings if one does at least two and better three coffee enemas daily.
I have extensive experience with them of over 44 years. They have proven to be very safe, inexpensive, simple to do at home and most powerful and helpful. For more information about them, read Coffee Enemas.
2. Sauna therapy. Everyone except children under about age 5 can benefit greatly from near infrared LAMP sauna therapy. Other types of saunas are not nearly as good. Begin with 20 minutes once per day. Slow oxidizers can do two sessions daily for 20 minutes each session, at first, working up to 40 or 50 minutes. Those who are debilitated, or have a four lows pattern or a fast oxidation pattern should use the sauna just once daily.
The best times to use a sauna are first thing in the morning and/or last thing in the evening before bed.
Among the types of saunas, the near infrared heat lamp sauna is by far the best. Ideally, every home should have one.
The traditional sauna found in gyms and health clubs is not as helpful. The temperature is rather high, it is less comfortable and it does not penetrate the skin as do the infrared types. Also, saunas in public locations are usually not as clean.
One can build a simple sauna for under one hundred dollars.Read more about saunas on this site at Sauna Therapy.
3. The pulling down procedure. This is a very simple, but very powerful and a safe mental concentration and observation practice. It is a core spiritual practice. It is non-denominational, not a religion or cult, and not harmful at all in any amount.
This cannot be said of most other mental practices in my long experience with them. It is good for everyone.
We recommend it daily for 2 hours or more. Read Pulling Down Procedure for details.
4. Daily or twice daily 10-minute foot reflexology sessions. This is a wonderful, and very powerful yet safe way to relax the body, balance the body, and develop the body in unusual ways. Do it on yourself or have a friend or partner do it for you. To learn more about it and view a map of the reflexes of the feet, read Reflexology.
5. The Spinal Twist daily or more often, if needed. This is also excellent for healing and development. To learn about it, read How To Help Adjust Your Spine.
