High levels of tungsten? Results from heavy metal 6 hour challenge.

I think you will find this article helpful. Although it's for Tungsten poisoning, it will show you some guidelines for how long it takes to be eliminated from the body and what you may have been exposed to in order to get an overload of tungsten:

I also found a site that said: "Tungsten is used in cell phones and other consumer electronics, as well as for industrial processes."

Hello Superj50, I looked at a few sites about Tungsten and haven't as yet
looked at the site which Traveler posted. Yes. They say it can come
from computer and electronic production. That it can seep into the water and
air.
I've had a lot of heavy metal tests done. My tungsten levels never
showed medium. I have others to deal with. If it were me, I would wish
to have it lowered. I'd do whatever chelation was suggested to see if that
made a difference. I believe it can effect your heart because the websites
talked about stroke. My overall feeling is, the less heavy metals I have
the better.

I recently recieved a report via hair analysis of Metal Toxtisity Tungsten 99%, Lead 99%, Plantinum 98% & Zinc 98%

I dont think I've been tested for lyme. But its possible, I had a lot of bites as a kid. I'm doing borax, DE & detox teas & baths. Then I'm testing again. I'm going to buy the test now as it's on sale, really work at detoxing & go from there. I had did detox teas before w/bad side effect. I was intolerant to most of the ingredients.
Like acai, turmeric, blueberry, fennel... so until you get the intolerance test you can be making yourself worse. Clean water is really important as well. Testyourintolerance.co/product/groupon-complete/ is running 60% off. So for $80 it tells you everything. Tests over 800 intolerances, vit def, hormones, metal toxicity & more. You just send 6 hairs. So if affordable I'd buy 2 at this price. Work on detoxing & test again in a few months. If the numbers are going down your doing good.

hey there superj50, my hair analysis has shown high in Tungsten for many years. I'm at a loss to figure out where the exposure came from. I don't work on electronics or in a factory. I did have serious lead exposure decades ago due to leaded gasoline, which definitely damaged my health. At any rate both lead and tungsten levels have declined. I did a few rounds of intravenous chelation decades ago, and I've done my own home brew oral chelation for about 5 years, which seems to be helping with the lead level. Lead has dropped so it's now just inside in the acceptable range, but Tungsten is still high. At age 67, it's hard to say which health problems are from old age, and which might be from heavy metals.

If I may, I’ve researched heavy metals extensively about 4 mos into my second flare of Lyme which began the end of April 2019.

I’m convinced this, along with a poor genetic ability to detox, is the underlying cause of mine and many people’s chronic Lyme or mold diseases if not both.

In my study of heavy metals and Lyme I studied both the Andy Cutler protocol and OSR method of chelation. In my research of both methods, I’ve concluded chelation is extremely tedious and can be quite dangerous and not something to be rushed which many do.

One thing I’ve learned is provoked tests never should be done unless a person has no amalgams, and sometimes, depending on the person, can make a person worse. I also learned things like chelation IV’s including glutathione, some can sometimes chelate metals (weakly) into the brain depending upon the person. If I was going to chelate, I’d probably choose the latest and most recent method which isn’t FDA approved in the states known as OSR.

It is recommended that if a person wants to test the metals, there’s no accurate way, but hair test is the most recommended.

In my research, I came across many harmed by this method. I also came across many healed through chelation. Just my two cents. There are Facebook sites online.
