Your calcium is within a healthy range, however, it is slightly elevated, you may experience some issues with elevated calcium.
Elevated calcium symptoms may include fatigue, depression, defensiveness,
muscle weakness, pain, arteriosclerosis, arthritis, kidney stones and gallstones. Others are bone spurs,
rigidity, slow metabolism, constipation, social withdrawal and spondylitis (rigidity and inflammation of the
spine).

Calcium Shell- Female - Calcium level of 165 mg% + above
![]()
On an initial hair test, a calcium shell usually indicates psychological withdrawal, the presence of trauma, and perhaps overwhelming stress, inability to handle stress well, or a very sensitive body. Often it is accompanied by a very slow oxidation rate.
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.
Visualization. The pattern looks like a “wall of calcium”, often accompanied by elevated magnesium, on the left side of the chart.
KEY WORDS TO HELP UNDERSTAND THE CALCIUM SHELL PATTERN
Simple key words that can help one understand the meaning of the calcium shell pattern include:
psychological withdrawal, hiding, lowered awareness, numb, calcified, traumatized, depressed, and “living in the bomb shelter or behind a wall”. The next sections explain why these words are helpful for understanding this very important pattern seen on many hair mineral tests.
WHEN THE PATTERNS APPEAR
Calcium and magnesium shell patterns almost never appear in children, and never in babies. They are also fairly rare in the elderly, above age seventy, or so, on earth.
However, they are common in the later teen years, and they occur in adults. They are much more common in women than in men.
A shell pattern is much less common in men, and if it is present in men, it is likely to be lower than in women, in general.
NOTES:
1. A higher calcium level indicates a more severe calcium shell.
2. When the calcium level is above about 340 mg%, it is called “petrified” pattern. This is a reference to calcification, as in petrified wood. However, it also refers to the feeling of being terrified.
3. Any calcium shell pattern, and particularly if it is a double shell pattern or greater, is a trauma indicator. For more on this important topic, please read Trauma Release and Trauma Retracing on this site.

Aggresiveness - Calcium less than 14mg%
![]()
This pattern is defined as a calcium level about 14 mg% or less on a hair test in which the hair has not been washed at the lab. This last caveat is important. This is a common pattern seen in young children and in adult fast oxidizers. It is also occasionally seen in four lows pattern or other types of patterns on hair tests.
As with all the hair analysis patterns, it is not a diagnosis of anything. Instead, it is a trend or tendency for certain metabolic imbalances. This pattern is called aggressiveness because when the hair tissue calcium level becomes very low, a person is usually in a fight-or-flight reaction, and one of the symptoms of this is aggressiveness. This is because calcium has a calming, buffering, and relaxing effect on the nervous system.
Other symptoms associated with this pattern are irritability, nervousness, muscle tightness, muscle cramps, and other symptoms of calcium deficiency. If the pattern has gone on a long time, other symptoms may include demineralization of the body, osteopenia, osteoporosis, tetany and others.

Magnesium
Magnesium is one of the most important, if not the most important mineral in a human body. The reason being is that it is used in so many areas of the body. From osmotic balancing to cell membrane potential, to nervous system functioning, to hormone production and much much more. Magnesium is often chronically low in many people. Magnesium is a high energy mineral, it often contributes to the chronic fatigue pandemic that is currently sweeping the globe.
Magnesium Shell Present
![]()
A magnesium shell is similar to a calcium shell and has similar symptoms. Please read the calcium shell article below for more information on shell patterns. Below is more information on magnesium shells.
Definition. A magnesium shell is said to be present any time the hair tissue magnesium level is greater than about 20 mg%. I have not worked out the quantification of a magnesium shell at this time (2015).
Meaning. A magnesium shell usually indicates some degree of biounavailability of magnesium in the body. This is definitely the case when the magnesium level rises very high, above about 100.
Usually with a calcium shell. A magnesium shell often accompanies a calcium shell. The reason for this is that on a hair mineral test, the calcium and the magnesium levels generally rise and fall together. This means that the ratio of calcium to magnesium is usually maintained, even when the levels are very high or very low.
Slow oxidation. Most cases of a magnesium shell occur in slow oxidizers. That is, the calcium and magnesium levels are elevated, while the sodium and potassium levels are low.
Four highs pattern. Uncommonly, a magnesium shell occurs when a person has a four highs mineral pattern. In most cases, the oxidation rate is slow and a calcium shell is present, as well.
Getting help pattern. It is rare to find a magnesium shell present by itself. One situation in which the magnesium level can temporarily rise very high, with or without the calcium level rising as much, is the intervention we call “getting help”. This is not a magnesium shell, however. It is a magnesium elimination.
In this situation, the body usually reacquires a soul in its energy field. Along with this, the hair magnesium rises because an inferior magnesium compound is eliminated from the body and is replaced with a higher quality magnesium compound in some enzyme binding sites.

Belligerence - Magnesium less than 3mg%
![]()
What is belligerence? It is a feisty, confrontational, and perhaps warlike quality. Dictionaries also define it as aggressive.
In addition to belligerence, common symptoms of low tissue magnesium include nervousness, irritability, anger, Attention Deficit Disorder, hyperactivity or hyperkinesis, muscle tension, muscle cramps, and often cardiovascular symptoms.
Cardiovascular symptoms. They may include high blood pressure, angina, and impaired circulation. Low magnesium can also result in a fatal heart attack or stroke.
Sympathetic nervous system heart attacks. These are fast oxidizer heart attacks in which all of the coronary arteries constrict in a cascade effect. This is far worse than having one or more blocked arteries. For this reason, these heart attacks are often fatal. However, they are completely preventable with nutrition.
Doctors should be warning everyone to eat more magnesium foods and to take a magnesium supplement. That this does not occur is an enormous failure of the medical profession.
WHY IS THE BELLIGERENCE PATTERN IMPORTANT?
The reasons include:
1. It is a form of aggressiveness that can get out of hand if it becomes extreme. It could lead to violence, for example.
2. It puts great stress on one’s body. As stated above, this can cause high blood pressure and even fatal heart attacks and strokes. These are quite common, in fact.
3. Belligerence gets in the way of a person’s mental and spiritual growth. This is an important problem for both adults and children.
For example, if a child is belligerent and tends toward hyperactivity, he or she may not learn well in school, even though the child is very intelligent. This will set the child back and can also seriously impair self esteem and confidence. It could even lead to suicide, and it does.

Sodium
Sodium is the solubility and volatility element. It is found mainly outside the cells or extracellularly. Although sodium does not participate in a single enzyme in the body, it is the body’s great solvent, meaning it dissolves many chemicals. It is also a major regulator of the fluid balance, pH and other fluid-related aspects of the body.
Low Sodium- Basic Burnout
![]()
Adrenal burnout syndrome is underactivity of the adrenal glands. There is depletion of nutrients required for adrenal activity. Toxic metals replace some of these nutrients, so that just taking supplements is not always effective in reversing the condition.
Adrenal burnout results in symptoms such as low blood pressure, weakness, and fatigue that is not relieved by rest and sleep. It is very common today.
In our experience, it can be reversed without taking hormones or anti-depressants, and without chelation therapy.
Other terms that have a similar meaning to adrenal burnout include adrenal insufficiency, adrenal fatigue and adrenal exhaustion.

Sodium increased, a sign of an improved adrenal response
![]()

High Sodium
![]()
High sodium or adrenal stress pattern- volatile, high stress, inflammation
An elevated hair sodium level is a feature of fast oxidation and an alarm stage of stress. The cause is usually
higher aldosterone secretion by the adrenal glands. This may be due to acute stress or to emotions such as
anger or fright. Cadmium and other toxic metals in the kidneys, along with kidney infections, can also raise
the hair tissue sodium level.
Extreme Adrenal Stress Pattern
![]()
Adrenal stress pattern is an extreme adrenal gland reaction or fight-or-flight reaction. In fact, any time the sodium level on a hair mineral analysis is over about 30 mg%, one could say that it is a degree of adrenal alarm reaction. However, this pattern is defined as a sodium level above 100 mg%, as this would define an extreme adrenal reaction. Hair must not be washed at the laboratory for accurate sodium readings.
This is a common finding on hair tests among babies and young children up to the age of about 4 -8. After that age, the pattern is much less prevalent, although it does occur in adults, at times, more so men than women.

High Potassium

![]()
If the kidneys become toxic or congested, it can affect the hair potassium level – usually
raising it. This we call kidney stress. It is a common finding on hair analysis retests, but also on initial hair
mineral analyses.
The most common cause of kidney stress and kidney congestion and toxicity is the presence in the body of the
‘amigos’ – aluminum and toxic forms of copper, iron, manganese, cobalt, chromium, selenium and vanadium.
When any of these elements are removed from the body during a nutritional balancing program, which occurs
very often, the hair potassium level can rise for a few months due to a little extra effort required of the
kidneys. This is the meaning of kidney stress.
Kidney stress may also be due to the release of certain medical drugs, cadmium, mercury or other toxic
substances. In many, but not all cases, this will temporarily affect the hair potassium level and perhaps the
ratios involving potassium, as well.
Sympathetic Dominance/ Pusher Pattern - Chronic Fight or Flight

![]()
Sympathetic dominance/ Pusher Pattern indicates a person who is over-utilizing his or her sympathetic nervous system. In simple terms, the person is pushing himself or herself, or worrying too much.
It not the same as a sympathetic state of body chemistry which is fast oxidation. This is why the pusher pattern is a good terminology to use as to not get confused with a sympathetic state of body chemistry.
The sodium and potassium readings on a hair tissue mineral analysis, and to some degree their ratio, have to do with the utilization of this branch of the autonomic or automatic nervous system.
SYMPTOMS
1. More physical activity than is appropriate for them
.
2. Anxious or worriers. This is a form of “running around aimlessly” in the mind
3. Tired, but usually somewhat out of touch with the fatigue and exhaustion. They often feel tired only when they slow down.
4. A very active mind.
5. Willfulness.
6. Fearful and always somewhat depressed underneath due to fears, worries and fatigue.
7. A high copper type of personality.
8. In Acupuncture, damp heat or a weak yang rising.
9. Reduced libido in some cases.
10. Ungrounded and not centered enough.
11. Problems with the first and second energy centers, called in Oriental medicine the first and second energy centers.
12. Often occurs in intelligent, spiritually-oriented people.

First Four Mineral Patterns
Below are the patterns on the first four minerals on a hair mineral analysis chart. Many of the patterns found on a hair analysis tests are generated using the first four minerals, Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium + Potassium.
Three Lows Pattern- Calcium is high

The hair analysis pattern called three lows or three low electrolytes was not part of Dr. Eck’s original work. However, it is an important hair analysis pattern. It may also be named overwhelming stress, skidding, one foot in the tunnel, or almost four lows. It is a common pattern.
Calcium is high and the other electrolytes are low. This is common and often found in slow oxidizers and those with sympathetic dominance. Often, with this pattern, the calcium/magnesium ratio is high. If this ratio is between about 9.5 and 13.5, it usually indicates that a person is eating too many carbohydrate foods (starches and/or sugars). If the calcium/magnesium ratio is above about 13.5, it indicates that a lifestyle factor is interfering with one’s health and that the person is defending this lifestyle factor or attitude when one should let go of it.

Sodium is high and the other three are low. The name given to this pattern is four lows under stress, especially if the sodium level is just slightly above 25 mg%. It means that the person is close to a four lows pattern, but there is so much inflammation or irritation that it keeps the person out of four lows at this time. This pattern is often associated with sympathetic dominance pattern.

4. Potassium is high and the other three are low. This pattern is more common in children and in adult men. It is always associated with a low sodium/potassium ratio, which is another indicator for adrenal exhaustion or burnout. It is also usually associated with a fast oxidation rate, which is more common in children, and in adult men rather than women.

Four Lows Pattern
![]()
Four lows on an initial hair test. This indicates a collapse and exhaustion. It is often a chronic pattern that can last for years if not corrected.
Four lows on a retest only when a person follows a complete development program. This is a healing reaction and classed as a celebration pattern. Healing certain issues, especially issues or conflicts involving parents, may require that a person go into a four lows pattern for a time.
If a person does not follow a Nutritional Balancing Program correctly, four lows can show up on a retest because the person is becoming worse.
WAYS TO UNDERSTAND A FOUR LOWS PATTERN ON AN INITIAL HAIR MINERAL ANALYSIS
1. At times, an attitude or lifestyle pattern. Some cases of four lows on a first hair analysis are related to lifestyle. These factors include working too much or too hard, being much too hard on oneself or others, being in an oppressed or very stressful situation of some kind, or compulsive or obsessive tendencies that wear out the body.
Attitudes that could drive a person into a four lows pattern and/or keep one there include anger, intense fear, even intense guilt or some other emotion that wears down or depletes the body.
While improving the attitudes and lifestyle are important for all healing, they are most important for this pattern when it occurs on a first hair analysis. Recall that if the pattern only occurs on a retest, it is not important.
2. A yin pattern. This means the body is quite yin in macrobiotic terminology. Yin means cold, expanded, and often quite ill. In fact, four lows can be a death pattern, or end-of-life pattern.
3. An autonomic nervous system imbalance. Four lows always reflects an imbalance in the autonomic nervous system. This is the automatic and regulatory nervous system of the body.
Using the analogy of the car stuck in the ice or mud, the person just keeps spinning the wheels instead of realizing he is not getting anywhere and should try a different way of living, thinking or acting.

Four Lows on a retest

CELEBRATION PATTERN
A 4 Low pattern on a retest is a celebration pattern. It is a sign of deep healing. A time for extra rest and rejuvenation while your body, mind, and spirit go through a deep retracing period.
It is important not to feel down or depressed that one has gone into four lows on a retest, this is completely different from a four lows pattern on an initial test. It is a great sign that the body is healing itself on deep levels.
FOUR LOWS ON A RETEST ONLY
(In other words, the first test or tests did not show a four low pattern, and it only shows up on a retest).
A celebration pattern. If a four lows pattern shows up only on a retest hair mineral analysis when a person is following a development program, most often it has a very different meaning.
The meaning seems to be that the body goes back into the tunnel or the “repair facility” for a process of re-planning one’s life because life is going to be extended, and life is going to be a lot healthier as well. It is truly a celebration of life and restoration of life.
Resolving relationship difficulties. Often, when a person goes into a four lows pattern on a retest only, it is to help resolve relationship issues. Often they are with a parent, but not always.
Some of these issues are simple and can be resolved within a few months or even less. Other issues are old and deep, and their resolution can take six months or more. The duration does not matter. One must not think that something is wrong if it takes months or a year or more to come out of a four lows pattern on a retest.
A type of stalled transition pattern from fast to slow oxidation in most cases. This means that the person was formerly in fast oxidation, but the body cannot sustain the fast oxidation. As a result, the sodium and potassium levels have fallen below the ideal levels.
However, the person is not yet in full slow oxidation with elevated calcium and magnesium levels. This is the meaning of a stalled transition pattern. Others are four highs, sympathetic dominance and fast oxidation with a very low sodium/potassium ratio.
This also means that the resolution or outcome as one exits four lows is usually for the person to become a slow oxidizer. This may involve a psychological transition one must make, not just a biochemical one.
5. A possible H-P-A Axis Disconnect or “Disengagement Of the Gearshift” Pattern. The four lows pattern can represent a type of imbalance that affects what is called the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis or H-P-A axis.
This means the normal feedback mechanisms that control the adrenal and thyroid glandular activity are not working quite right. This may be related to excessive copper, mercury or perhaps other toxins that affect the glands and the feedback system involving them.
6. A separate metabolic type. While it is true that a person with four lows on the initial hair analysis can be a fast, mixed or slow metabolic type, Dr. Eck believed that four lows is actually a separate metabolic type. This means that it has qualities and supplement requirements all its own, independent of whether the calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium levels indicate a state of fast, mixed or slow oxidation.
Another stressor has been superimposed upon the basic system of fast, slow or mixed oxidation. This has important implications for the diet, supplements and lifestyle recommendations for this pattern, as explained later in this article.

Four Lows on a retest, Digging Deeper Pattern
![]()
At times, on a retest, a four lows pattern will become an even lower four lows pattern. This means that the one or more of the macromineral levels (calcium, magnesium, sodium, and potassium) will decline further on a retest.
We call this digging deeper pattern. It indicates that a person is delving more deeply into traumas or other blockages that caused or contributed to the four lows pattern.
This is not a problem at all. It usually resolves on its own on the next hair tissue mineral retest. It is a good sign of deeper healing and reguvination as the body works through old layers, traumas and patterns to heal.

Adults should exit a four lows pattern into a slow oxidizer pattern. Rarely, a person exits into a fast oxidizer pattern. This is called backing out of four lows or coming out backwards.
However, at times, if this occurs, the person will soon go back into four lows, perhaps bouncing in and out of the pattern several times, until they finally exit into slow oxidation.
There is nothing 'good' or 'bad' about this situation it is just what the body needs to do at the time in order to heal.
Coming Alive Pattern X4

Settling Down Pattern
![]()
This pattern is present on a retest hair mineral analysis whenever the levels of all four of the macrominerals – calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium – decrease on a retest. It is also present, to a lesser degree, when 1, 2 or 3 macrominerals decrease on a retest, provided the other macrominerals remain the same as on the previous test.
This pattern indicates a relaxation of the body in a curious way. It is as though the person settles in for the long haul, and is more stable in his or her health. Often, with this pattern in the macrominerals, there is an elimination in progress of the amigos (iron, manganese, aluminum, nickel, chromium, for example), or in some other toxic metals such as copper or cadmium.
Settling down pattern is considered a very positive health indicator.
Variants. These include:
1. The pattern can be mild or more extreme. It is mild if the mineral levels decrease just a little. The pattern is more dramatic if the numbers all decrease significantly. Both are excellent.
Super Settling. The definition of this pattern is when all four macrominerals decrease 50% or more on a retest mineral analysis. It is more intense than just a settling down pattern.
2. Double settling down is a settling down pattern on the first four macrominerals, and a settling down on the second four minerals on an ARL chart (iron, copper, manganese and zinc).
3. One can settle down into four lows. This is usually a healing four lows pattern, and very good.

This pattern indicates a relaxation of the body in a curious way. It is as though the person settles in for the long haul, and is more stable in his or her health. Often, with this pattern in the macrominerals, there is an elimination in progress of the amigos (iron, manganese, aluminum, nickel, chromium, for example), or in some other toxic metals such as copper or cadmium.
Settling down pattern is considered a very positive health indicator.
Variants. These include:
1. The pattern can be mild or more extreme. It is mild if the mineral levels decrease just a little. The pattern is more dramatic if the numbers all decrease significantly. Both are excellent.
Super Settling. The definition of this pattern is when all four macrominerals decrease 50% or more on a retest mineral analysis. It is more intense than just a settling down pattern.
2. Double settling down is a settling down pattern on the first four macrominerals, and a settling down on the second four minerals on an ARL chart (iron, copper, manganese and zinc).
3. One can settle down into four lows. This is usually a healing four lows pattern, and very good.

Double Low Ratio
![]()
General Meaning. A double low ratio pattern is essentially a doubling of a low sodium/potassium ratio. This means it reinforces the meaning of a low sodium/potassium ratio. A low sodium/potassium ratio indicates frustration, resentment, hostility, low electrical potential of the cells, kidney stress, liver stress, cardiovascular stress, and blood sugar stress. It is also a give-up pattern.
Therefore, a double low ratio pattern is a double give-up pattern. The person is really struggling and close to giving up.
Visually, the double low ratio pattern looks like saw teeth. It has a kind of shattered look about it, especially if the ratios are very low.
In Tibetan acupuncture, this pattern is called stolen yang.
DOUBLE LOW RATIO PATTERN ON A RETEST HAIR ANALYSIS WHEN ONE FOLLOWS A PROGRAM
When a person is following a development program, if a double low ratio pattern appears on a retest indicates that one is retracing a situation from the past, in which one felt like giving up and dying. It is usually benign, although one may have flashbacks of the trauma and may have other symptoms related to retracing of the old trauma.

You have a Step Up Pattern
![]()
Components of the pattern. A fast oxidation pattern is associated with acute stress, emotional immaturity in an adult, inflammation and irritability. A low sodium/potassium ratio is associated with frustration, resentment, hostility, cardiac stress, blood sugar stress, malignancy, kidney stress and liver stress. A low calcium/magnesium ratio reinforces the low sodium/potassium ratio tendencies.
Usually a fast death pattern. This is what I call a fast death pattern. It is associated with a tendency for a heart attack, in particular, or perhaps a vascular accident such as a stroke.
It is also associated with arteriosclerosis, angina, cardiac arrythmias, and perhaps malignancy and diabetes.
It is an acute and chronic stress pattern and an inflammatory pattern. It is a running away pattern.
It is fast and reckless, the opposite of step down pattern, which is slow but sure.
Fortunately, a nutritional balancing program, especially if applied quickly, can easily turn the pattern around in most cases.

Giving Away Your Power Pattern
A somewhat uncommon pattern on a hair mineral analysis is called “giving away your power”. Formerly, it was called the vampire victim pattern.
Other names for the pattern in Tibetan medicine are “under water - can’t get her breath” or “drowning”. All the names may be helpful to understand the meaning of the pattern.

These are four fairly common patterns seen on hair mineral analyses when the hair is not washed at the laboratory. They can be confusing for practitioners and clients.
Most often, wrong two highs should be viewed exactly like a three highs/four highs pattern. In other words, all four of these patterns seem to be variants or indicate slow oxidation with a secondary alarm reaction.

You are in a Four Highs Pattern
Two patterns superimposed. Four highs is a combination of two components:
1. The high calcium and magnesium indicate an underlying slow oxidation or exhaustion pattern.
2. Superimposed on this pattern are high sodium and potassium readings. These indicate an alarm reaction, or fight-or-flight reaction occurring at the same time.
The combination indicates what may be called a secondary alarm reaction. Extraordinary stress of some kind is causing a partially effective stress response in a slow oxidizer. It is not unlike a second wind that runners may experience after they have run part of the way through a race.
The pattern is also called a slow oxidizer under stress. This term is applied because in essence one is a slow oxidizer. However, some type of stress is present that is causing elevated levels of sodium and potassium.
Most people are very uncomfortable in a four highs pattern and feel better when they come out of the pattern. However, a subset of people like the pattern, perhaps because they like a balanced oxidation rate and they have learned how to keep it balanced. I call these individuals delicate souls, because they are quite sensitive to their oxidation rate and will go to some length to keep it fairly balanced in a four highs pattern.
These are usually bright, middle-aged women, in my experience, age 40 or older. They are often somewhat depressed and angry underneath, and do not want to face the depressing feelings that often accompany a significantly slow oxidation rate.

You are in a Step Down Pattern
![]()
We find step down pattern is more common in women. The person is often very determined to move ahead in his or her life, in spite of some fatigue or exhaustion. The person is often moving ahead slowly, with this pattern, and doing well, even though the energy level is low. It is thus a pattern of overcoming odds against oneself, and slowly pushing forward in one’s life. One can call it “digging in one’s heels” and moving ahead in spite of obstacles.
Developing the will. One may say that the step down pattern is associated with developing the quality of focused and concentrated will in one’s life. This is in contrast to a step up pattern, which is associated with a need to develop the quality of love and surrender, and to move past the lower will of the ego. I know this may sound vague, but it indicates how the hair tissue mineral patterns can relate to developmental states of a human being.

You are in a Hill Pattern
![]()
A hill pattern can appear on an initial hair mineral test, or on a retest mineral analysis. It appears fairly often among those who follow a development program. It is found at about the same rate in men and in women. It is more common in adults than in children.
MEANING OF THE HILL PATTERN
It indicates:
- turning a corner.
- a knowing, like having a 360 degree view because you are standing on the top of a mountain and can look all around.
- overcoming something.
- a release from a bondage or situation.
- reaching a peak or top of the hill.
- a celebration or joy pattern.
- openness to moving forward in one’s life.
- a yang mineral pattern, and a fullness pattern.
Like being at the top of a hill, one can now “spread one’s wings” and move in any direction rather easily. As the saying goes, “it is all downhill from here”. The pattern may also indicate less involvement in a karmic or difficult situation at this time, as if one is viewing the world from the top of a mountain rather than being deeply involved in the world at this time. This gives one an approximation of the sense of this pattern when it appears on an initial hair test or a retest.
Another way to understand the hill pattern is by considering its opposite, the Bowl Pattern. The bowl pattern is characterized by feeling stuck, constricted, confined, yin, empty, lost or clueless.
READ MORE HERE
You are in a Bowl Pattern
![]()
This pattern is associated with feeling stuck, mentally and emotionally, as though one has few options. One is “in the thick of it” right now.
This pattern is often related to nutritional imbalances, because when a person follows a development program, the pattern often goes away within 3 to12 months.
A DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF THIS INTERESTING PATTERN
To understand this pattern, consider the two ratios that it consists of. A low sodium/potassium ratio is associated with exhaustion, chronic stress, and often frustration, resentment and hostility.
This is combined with a high calcium/magnesium ratio. This is associated with defensiveness. One may be defending a lifestyle factor or an attitude that is not helpful for a person.
The combination of these two situations – fatigue, hostility, resentment, frustration – along with defensiveness, it is not surprising that one begins to feel stuck emotionally, mentally and perhaps physically as well. This is an example of how two interesting patterns on a hair mineral analysis can combine to form another interesting and more complex pattern.

Second Four Mineral Patterns & Double Patterns
The second four minerals or the second four mineral vector is Iron, Copper, Zinc and Manganese.
If patterns using the first four minerals represent the current surface level of health, then the second four; Iron, Copper, Zinc and Manganese are said to represent the layer beneath. It is a deeper reading of the current health status of an individual. The patterns on the second four are ready to bubble to the surface and often show up and replace the first four mineral patterns in future tests..
Double patterns are patterns that use both the first four minerals and the second four minerals. Any double patterns on your tests will be shown below.
You are in a Hill Pattern on the Second Four
![]()
The second four minerals have to do with a deeper level of functioning of a human being. This level is usually hidden, although it may appear in the human aura as a particular “picture” or level.
Therefore a hill pattern on the second four is similar to a hill pattern on the first four, however, it is related to a deeper level of joy that one may not be fully aware of

Double Hill Pattern
![]()
The double hill pattern is fairly rare. However, when it appears on either an initial hair test or a retest, it indicates “excitement within and without”. In other words, it is a deeper joy and celebration pattern than a single hill.
The client with a double hill may or may not be consciously aware of the joy and celebration energy that is present. This is because sometimes many symptoms are still present, and the person can be focused on these instead of on the overall situation or improvement in one’s health.
The criteria for a hill on the second four minerals are:
1. The iron/copper ratio less than about 0.5
AND
2. The manganese/zinc ratio greater than 0.003.
You are in a double Bowl Pattern
![]()
A double bowl pattern means that not only are the first four minerals and a hair analysis test in a bowl pattern but so are the second four, iton, copper, manganese and zinc.
The general meaning of this pattern is the 'stuck' feeling may be even more intense or severe because of the second bowl pattern on the second four minerals.

A double 3up pattern means 3 of the first 4 minerals on a hair analysis sheet have increased and 3 of the second 4 minerals have also increased
This is a positive pattern and is similar to a coming alive pattern, just not as strong. A coming alive pattern basically means that the body is starting to 'wake up' or 'come alive', another way to say it is the engine is starting to fire up. This is a coming alive pattern and a double 3up is just a milder version.

You have high Copper
![]()
Copper toxicity is a major problem for most people today. Unfortunately, it is not too known or understood. Copper toxicity can cause a plethora of symptoms.
People with copper toxicity often experience many symptoms like fatigue, PMS, skin problems, insomnia, bi-polar, schizophrenia, memory loss, racing mind, fear, anger, fungal infections, osteoporosis and many many more

Copper is dumping
![]()
Your copper is dumping, copper elimination symptoms are often very varied.
Common symptoms when copper pours into the blood stream on its way out of the body can include headaches and skin rashes such as acne, pimples and others. The rash can be anywhere on the body, though the most common locations are the face, head, neck and trunk areas.
Other common symptoms are fatigue or its opposite, a kind of anxious, wound up feeling in which the mind can race and one has trouble sleeping, resting or even just slowing down. One may also feel nausea, impaired appetite, and possibly some other digestive disturbances such as some diarrhea, constipation, gas or bloating. Some also have a flare-up of an infection, a cold or flu symptoms.
An interesting symptom in men is testicular pain and/or tenderness. It can come on suddenly and can be severe, so the man does not even want to sit down. Fortunately, it usually passes in a few hours or perhaps a day.
Younger women may experience changes in their menstrual cycle, or they may have more menstrual symptoms as copper is removed. Some women will have shorter cycles for a while, which will eventually even out again when the copper elimination is over. An interesting observation is that if a young woman’s menstrual period does not coincide with the full moon, as copper becomes more balanced, the period will often change over a few months and begin to coincide with the moon cycle.

Amigos dumping
![]()
“amigo dump” –iron, manganese, aluminum all dumping. The amigos or irritants are oxidants in the body
and can cause any imaginable symptom
Dumping these can cause a huge amount of symptoms, in general. Aluminum causes a lot of forgetfulness and brain numbness. Iron can cause anger and irritability, and manganese can literally make you feel 'mad.' Combining these three things together can feel turbulent at times, but it is very good to get them out!!

Anchor Patterns
![]()
Anchor patterns indicate improvement in the architecture or shape or the brain sulci in an area of the brain. They are all very positive patterns.
We are not sure why keeping the mineral levels the same or very close helps the brain. However, we surmise that the similar numbers provide stability needed to regenerate the nervous system.

Below are the anchor patterns on your test.
Calcium Anchor
Calcium anchor = Improvement in the sulci in the back of the head. These are less common, and mayhave to do with improvement in vision or visual processing disorders.
Magnesium Anchor
Magnesium anchor = Improvement in the sulci on the right side of head. These are quite common and have to do with improvements in language and thinking skills.
Hidden
Sodium Anchor
Sodium anchor = Improvement in the sulci on left side of the head. These are common, but not as common as magnesium anchors. Sodium anchors often have to do with improvements in language and thinking skills.
Hidden
Potassium Anchor
Potassium anchor = Improvement in the sulci at the top of the head. This has to do with balance and other brain activitites.
Hidden
Iron Anchor
Iron anchor = Improvement in the sulci in the back of the head involving language processing.
Hidden
Copper Anchor
Copper anchor = Improvement in the sulci on the top of the head. We are not sure of the exact brain activity involved.

Other Minerals
Iron Elevated
Conditions in which iron can be a factor include diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, other inflammatory conditions, oxidant damage, Alzheimer’s disease and cancer. Others include chronic infections, hair loss, hypothyroidism, hyperactive behavior, violence, attentions deficit disorder, and other health conditions.

Your Zinc is high
![]()
High zinc can be related to: iron deficiency anemia, diarrhea, nausea, depression.
Elevated hair zinc level is commonly due to a loss of zinc from the body tissues. In these cases zinc supplements will often be recommended.
Zinc levels may appear high to compensate for copper toxicity. High zinc can be an indicator of hidden copper toxicity.
Cadmium toxicity can cause a zinc reading to appear high.
Your Zinc is very high
![]()
When we see a zinc level this high it is usually an abnormal reading.
This usually happens when someone is using 'Head and Shoulders Shampoo'. Please stop using this shampoo if possible.
Your Zinc level is currently in a healthy range.
Zinc up at least 2 mg%, provided that the zinc was less than 13 mg% on the first test. - This is a JOY pattern
![]()
Low Zinc
![]()
Low zinc is associated with emotional ups and downs, mood swings, cadmium toxicity, copper
toxicity and excessive emotionalism. In babies and children, it is associated with delayed development
syndromes, and delayed growth and possibly other developmental problems.
Zinc is also related to Copper. In general a low zinc = high copper (if your copper level is low look at hidden copper indicators). Zinc is important to help balance out copper. Many people are malnourished in Zinc today from busy lifestyles, poor nutrition with a lack of high quality zinc in the diet.
Zinc is also a more male mineral. Increasing Zinc levels helps with testosterone and libido. Also increasing Zinc often increases more masculine traits in males such as groundedness, being more linear in ones thinking and strength.
