Improving my program involved getting some more tests done. You’ll see below that my Mauve Factor (HPL) is too high at nearly 34 when it should be under 10.
This imbalance has a few names such as Pyroluria, Kryptopyroluria, Kryptopyrole or Mauve disorder and most likely more.
Basically this neurotoxic chemical, HPL, is produced if we have been or are currently in a chronic stress situation. My situation was years ago but obviously the imbalance has not corrected. HPL binds ZINC and Vitamin B6 and excretes it therefore not allowing our body to use them.
Zinc and B6 are crucial for neurotransmitter production and may explain why neurological symptoms are so prevalent today. Chronic stress in many forms.
Supplementation with Zinc and/or B6 should improve the situation so hopefully this will improve my situation.
Symptoms can be:
- constant inner tension and strain
- anxiety and depression
- inability to relax
- poor stress tolerance
- symptoms exacerbated by stress
- joint or pain stiffness
- immune issues
- digestive issues
- eczema or psoriasis
- mood swings
- poor short term memory
- avoid social situations – too difficult / stressful
