Why do a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis Test?
Analysis of hair tissue is a non-invasive method for determining which toxic heavy metals are present in the body. In addition, it will also measure the levels of essential minerals in the body, such as calcium, magnesium, zinc, etc as well as important mineral ratios which help keep the body in balance.
Too little or too much of any of these essential minerals can have an adverse effect on the human body and its ability to recover.
Hair analysis testing is worth doing because a surprising number of people with health conditions actually turn out to have a heavy metal problem or mineral imbalance.
Minerals are like the spark plugs to the body. Minerals play an important role in bodily functions, similar to how spark plugs ignite the combustion process in an engine.
Minerals are essential for various processes like enzyme function, hormone production, and nerve impulse transmission, making them crucial for overall health and well-being. Just as a car needs the right type and amount of fuel and spark plug for optimal performance, the body requires a balanced intake of minerals for efficient functioning.
A faulty spark plug can cause engine misfires and reduced power, while mineral deficiencies can lead to various health problems and impaired bodily functions.
If you live within 30 minutes of Little Elm, I can drive to you to cut your hair sample and send to the lab. If you live farther, I will send you paperwork along with instructions on how to cut your hair to send to the lab located in Addison. Results usually come within 7 to 10 days after the lab receives your hair sample. I will send by email and then we can schedule a zoom call to go over your results and talk about suggested dietary changes based on your results. I prefer to suggest foods to stay away from or eat more of rather than supplements.
A hair test is much different than a blood test. A blood test is like a picture of your life at that moment, but a hair test is like a video of your life the past 6 weeks. No fasting needed for a HTMA.
