Pyroluria

I looked at Klinghardt’s KPU/HPU stuff early on and did the poor man’s urine test. My pee didn’t change colors. I think this is the one where the recommended lab test is quoted as $50, but when you click on the link, it’s a different lab name and $150, so I passed.

However, the psych descriptions for this sound uncanny except I have never been diagnosed with a mental illness and never been a criminal or had any substance addictions.

I tried taking some of the recommended supplements like B6, P5P, zinc, selenium. I never noticed any difference.

I just looked it up and realized he’s in GA.

Has anyone seen or consulted with him?

If I remember correctly (right person)....the conclusion here in the past was this guy was...well....."off his rocker"...the king of quacks.

Because of his medical beliefs or his spiritual beliefs?

Okay, I searched. I didn’t see anything about him except he was one of the summit speakers on keto diet.

I tested mildly positive for pyroluria when i was acting as my own medical team prior to my lyme doc. I did have low tests for zinc in the past and suffered from inabi to recall dreams.

Here is my take: I think pyroluria is an outdated concept that describes a very real state of affairs. Hard to explain what I mean but to me it seems like perhaps it is referring to something but not exactly the thing. Like maybe us pyroluriacs have low b6 and zinc because infections rob us of them or because of Epstein bar etc so while helpful to know about/pursue, I bet the concept alone hasnt fixed anyone

Just my two cents

The Klinghardt stuff I read on BetterHealthGuy mentioned a specific lab (non-US) and stated $50, but when I went to the link, it had a different lab name and was $150. I’m guessing results may depend on the lab. I know with the Shoemaker CIRS labs, a couple of them are only valid if sent to a particular lab and specimens handled a certain way.

The link sara posted had a US lab, I believe.

doors,

Yeah. I get what you’re saying. Similar to all the 23&me genetic stuff and methylation supplements. Supplementing makes a difference for some and not others. Why did those people only develop issues at some point in their lives and now need supplementation? Need to get to the root.

I was stuck on pyroluria awhile back but never tested. I had read all the klinghardt stuff and I also have low alk phos on bloodwork which is an indicator. I’ve not taken Biopure Core (which is the blend of what’s recommended) but have taken b6, zinc, etc. No change.

Pyroluria could just be malabsorption issues from infections or whatever.
