That is a good sign, stay on TE and start using sea salt scrubs in the shower for your hair it should help decalcify and slow down your loss. But stay on TE though, many reactions will occur.

Still concerning. What is the reason behind the increased shedding?

Wow. I've never felt so tired. Does this subside? Is it a good sign? How long does this usually last?

Here is an updated hair test... My calcium has gone through the roof again... All I've been doing is following the recommended TEI supplements...

On a retest mineral analysis, a sharp rise in the calcium level to or above 165 mg% in a woman or to or above 155 mg% in a man generally indicates a need for protection. We call this pattern hiding. It might occur due to a trauma, such as a death in the family.

THE CALCIUM SHELL

Maybe this is something. If not, just search Dr Wilson's articles on calcium. You might find your answers there.

Thanks, @Admiral. I've looked into the calcium shell previously. No trauma to speak of

I'm using TEI supplements but ARL say that 'high calcium on a retest often means the body is eliminating excess calcium...'

I really need to get my hair shedding under control. Why and how have the TEI supplements increased calcium and hair shedding? Bizarre.

can you look into his hairtest? He seems like a classic slow oxidizer with very high calcium. What you think? @Helen @HS

@Nina - here is my current list of TEI supplements:

E79919EF-1975-47BE-B0CA-E315365BCAB2.jpeg
Breakdown of mineral content:

Adrenal Complex
HCL
Min-Plex B
Para-Pack
Vitamin E

I exercise regularly, playing sport both days of the weekend.

My diet mainly consists of protein from chicken, lamb, eggs, seafood and carbs from root vegetables and rice. Veg in form of spinach mainly. Herbs and spices.

I work in investments so tend to be at a desk. I am out, moving around, meeting clients, etc. as well.

We recently had a two-month heatwave in the UK, so I wonder whether the sun has increased my vitamin D levels and subsequently increased calcium?
