What kind of plane are you flying?

 

 

A metaphor to help read a hair analysis is that of flying an airplane.

Fast oxidation is similar to flying high and fast, problems with this are that the plane is not designed to fly that high or fast. A very fast oxidation rate is extremely hard on the plane. The airplane will not be the same due to the extreme stress this puts on it.

Slow oxidation is flying much slower and lower.

Unlike a real airplane, in the body a very fast oxidation rate actually uses up or burns up many vital minerals or parts of the body. When the correct materials are not present to repair the plane, repairs are made instead with inferior toxic material such as lead, arsenic, cadmium, mercury, and aluminium. These replace the better materials such as magnesium, zinc, selenium, and others that make the aircraft move.

Mineral deficiencies and toxicity develop. This forces the plane to begin to slow down. Either it just can’t fly as fast, or the damage to it makes it very unstable.

Fast oxidation with a low sodium/potassium ratio, the plane begins to stall.

Slow oxidation. This is when the plane is flying too low and slower than the way it was designed to fly. It makes a person feel sluggish and often somewhat depressed. The plane is much less maneuverable; meaning that coping with stress is more difficult.

Hair calcium levels rises. A crude analogy is smearing cement on cracks and damaged areas of the aircraft. This protects the aircraft, but weighs it down. Causing it to fly lower.

Some develop a calcium shell. This is like smearing cement all over the plane, either to protect it from damage or to try to blend it together, or disappear and withdraw from society. These people are often seeking to “fly under the radar” or become somewhat invisible.

Sympathetic dominance. This is like revving the engines in a futile attempt to get back to flying high. However, the plane is too damaged physically or psychologically, so it does not work, no matter how hard one revs the engine.

Four highs is akin to speeding up the plane to some degree. However, it is purely temporary and often very unstable and unsafe for health. The plane in this situation is really in bad shape. Fortunately people in four highs usually slow down easily on a nutritional balancing program.

Four lows. This occurs when the rudder or a stabilizer is broken. The plane goes nowhere fast and becomes more and more damaged.

A hill pattern occasionally occurs. It is a feeling that one is soaring on top of the world.

The three amigos, along with copper, cadmium and a few other toxic metals. These are special because they appear to support the plane, like little rocket thruster to help keep a damaged plane flying. However, they are not part of the original design, so they do further damage the plane in the process of keeping it flying.

Double low ratio and double high ratio patterns. These are like having a biplane with two wings that are either in stall position (double low) or dive position (double high). In other words, these patterns reinforce the sodium/potassium imbalances.

A step down pattern or, high sodium/potassium ratios are “dive” positions. They can be successful attempts to pick up some speed.  These people have often dug their heels in and can continue in this way for some time.

A step up pattern is a dive upward, an extremely dangerous maneuver that always fails and must be turned around fast. It includes a low sodium/potassium ratio, which is the stalled wing pattern.

Spiritual defensiveness pattern. This is a very high calcium/magnesium ratio. The imbalance seriously weighs down the plane, keeping it from soaring. In this pattern, the person defends a situation, behavior or attitude when it is time to move on.

The phosphorus level, along with the sodium/potassium ratio, are a little like fuel indicators. When low, the plane is losing altitude due to lowered energy or vitality.

Elevated toxic metals. This is like an airplane that is overloaded with heavy weights. It is never a helpful situation and every effort should be made to “lighten up”. This can help the plane gain more altitude. Those flying high (fast oxidizers) who are loaded with toxic metals are often just throwing them off, which is like the pilot jettisoning extra weight to fly faster.

Any change can be traumatic. In time, each of us becomes used to his own speed of flight. Anything that changes the rate of climb or fall, or speed or altitude may feel odd and can cause some anxiety or fear. This often slows ones progress on this healing journey.

The goal is a safe and happy flight. A safe flight means to fly at an altitude that is comfortable and safe for the condition of your aircraft, neither too high and fast, or too low and slow. Ideally, your craft should be able to speed up when needed to avoid thunderstorms and other obstacles, or slow down, at times, to relax the crew. This condition of health and vitality is termed balanced and flexible oxidation.
