Hair Mineral Analysis is screening test to measure the levels of up to 60 essential minerals and toxic metals. Minerals screened include, but are not limited to calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, phosphorus, copper, zinc, manganese, selenium, iron, and cobalt. Toxic metals screened are lead, mercury, cadmium, arsenic, nickel, and aluminum. With correct testing and interpretation, one can construct a comprehensive metabolic profile of the human body.
Hair is an excellent biopsy material. Hair is a storage and eliminative soft tissue of the body, so as hair grows it forms a permanent record of your body’s nutritional deficiencies or any excesses you have acquired. It is also easy to sample, easily preserved and convenient to transport.
This information, along with dietary and nutritional evaluations, will provide the basis for a nutritional balancing program to establish and maintain optimal levels of wellness. By correcting tissue mineral levels and ratios with proper diet, supplementary nutrients and lifestyle modifications, many physical and behavioral health conditions can be prevented or reversed.
