Hair Analysis
Why Do A Hair Analysis Test?
Hair is the second most metabolically active tissue in the body. The hair tissue is affected by the blood, perspiration, environment, genetics, hormones and enzymes. The hair represents what is occurring inside the cells and the sub-molecular figures of the body.
A blood test shows what is happening outside the cell and the waste material being discarded. The hair gives a reading of what is being stored in the body. For example, if mercury is high in the hair, a higher concentration of it would also be found in organs like the kidney and liver.
A hair analysis gives a more complete picture of a person’s health history. Our hair analysis test can show heavy metal toxicity, mineral deficiencies, nutritional deficiencies and some vitamin deficiencies which have occurred over a long period of time.
For instance, magnesium is a “calming” mineral, so if it is low in your tissues, you may have muscle twitches or anxiety. Our hair analysis test will also show if there is an elevated mineral toxicity. This means that your minerals are getting stuck in the connective tissues of your body, instead of being utilized by your body. For instance if the “calming” mineral magnesium is elevated is your tissues it can also cause twitches or anxiety instead of relaxation.
The key is that your minerals needs to be in “balance” with each other so they can nourish your body properly as they are supposed to do. All minerals should be functioning optimally in your body so you can function at your optimal level.
Hair Analysis and Heavy Metal Toxicity
This hair test for toxins can show if toxic heavy metals have accumulated in the body. Some of the metals which cause toxicity are mercury, chlorine, iron, aluminum, arsenic, copper, lead, cadmium and nickel. Surprisingly, heavy metal toxicity isn’t uncommon. It can also lead to a variety of debilitating symptoms. Toxic metals tend to cause havoc to the nervous system.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency concluded in a 1980 report that “human hair can be used effectively for the biological monitoring of the highest priority toxic metals - lead, cadmium, mercury and arsenic,” and “For toxic exposure… (testing) hair appears to be superior to (testing) blood and urine.”.”
A hair analysis is a powerful tool for parents that are searching for alternative treatments for ADHD, Attention Deficit or Hyperactivity.
If you are searching for fibromyalgia relief, our hair analysis can show you if your symptoms may be caused by heavy metal toxicity or mineral deficiencies.
If you are searching for answers to how to feel better, or just wanting to know what nutrients your body is low in or which metals your body is high in, our hair analysis test is a great place to start!
