What exactly is hair analysis? Your hair contains all the minerals present in your body, including nutritional minerals as well as toxic heavy metals. Hair mineral analysis is a laboratory test that measures this mineral content in the hair.
In most cases, the test results reflect how much of these elements are in your tissues and provide a vivid picture of your internal environment. With this information, a world of metabolic events can be interpreted. Not only can your nutritional status be viewed, but we can also learn much about how efficiently your body is working. Discovering what your body needs when it needs it is a valuable tool that can help you achieve better health. This valuable tool indicates which supplements you need and which ones you should avoid.
Blood and urine tests are like snapshots of what is being transported and excreted by the body at that time – not necessarily what has been absorbed. While your may be aware that vitamins and minerals are good for you, too much of something can be just as bad as too little. By using the information gathered from all assessment data, including hair analysis, we can use targeted nutrition to restore your body’s balance.
