WORKAHOLIC
DEFINITION
A newer pattern on a hair mineral analysis that was not part of Dr. Eck’s original brilliant work I am choosing to call workaholic. It is present, according to our research, when a person has both a four highs pattern and a high sodium/potassium ratio. It may also be present when a person has three highs or even two highs if the calcium and sodium is high.
The MEANING OF THIS PATTERN
One can see the meaning of the pattern by combining the meaning of four highs and that of a high sodium/potassium ratio. Four highs is a lot of stress, often a delicate and perhaps depressed type of person who is afraid or for some reason does not want to slow down into slow oxidation even though that is where they belong, and it is an unstable pattern as well. This combines with a high sodium/potassium ratio, which indicates acute stress, inflammation, anger, pushing oneself, trying very hard and so on.
In calling it workaholic it does not mean that the person works at an office or job 80 hours a week. The pattern occurs in housewives, laborers and anyone, in fact, who is using work or some similar activity as an escape and perhaps as a drug to stay stimulated, as they are afraid or unwilling for some reason to slow down and relax.
WHOM & WHEN
The pattern is becoming more common in men and women, almost always in adults rather than children, and perhaps more in those of middle age, rather than the young or very old. Most are sensitive, intelligent people.
A COPPER PERSONALITY TYPE
Workaholic may perhaps be a copper type. This means that the action of copper on the brain and nervous system, in particular, may contribute to the pattern. The copper may cause the mind to race and may cause a type of reduced awareness that makes the pattern worse or even causes it. This is much more likely if the hair copper level is high. The copper may also contribute to anger, which is part of the pattern in most cases. The person is exhausted in most cases, but just keeps on working, in part out of anger or emotion of some kind.
Other symptoms that may be seen with this pattern, but not necessarily (most related to copper imbalance). These include a coppery personality type, angry, spacy, irritable, ADD, cancer, compulsive, exhausted, headache, confusion, women may have lumpy or fibrocystic breasts and fibroids, worried, sinus congestion, perhaps, inflammatory conditions, artery disease, anxious, bruising, craving sweets, dandruff, PMS, low libido, immature, and a little whacky or kooky, perhaps, especially if high mercury is present.
SUPER WORKAHOLIC
This is an even newer and less well researched finding in which a person has, in addition to four highs and a high Na/K ratio, a calcium shell and perhaps a high Ca/mg ratio as well. So far, this pattern is just a souped up or super form of the workaholic pattern. The calcium shell indicates more copper toxicity, and even more reduced awareness. The high Ca/Mg ratio often just reinforces a high Na/K ratio, in terms of symptoms. This is called a double high ratio pattern.
The super workaholic pattern may also combine with other patterns such as a very low potassium level, or an extremely elevated Na/K ratio to form a few other related patterns such as:
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS WITH WORKAHOLIC PATTERNS
There are not too many, except to realize this is a lifestyle pattern, more so than a simple four highs pattern or a simple high Na/K ratio pattern. Therefore, counseling the person and discussing lifestyle, diet and other simple measures to help the person slow down and relax may be extremely helpful.
Nutritional balancing, especially with sauna therapy and daily coffee enemas, is extremely helpful as well.
