From a small sample of hair, one can learn about their metabolic rate, immune system function, glandular activity, mineral toxicity levels and more. Like the organs, hair absorbs minerals and trace metals. While blood and urine tests provide only a "snapshot" of the body's current mineral exposure, hair analysis provides a record of exposure over time. The cells that lie deep inside individual strands of hair are a perfectly preserved record of metabolic processes that have been going on for about the past three months. When we analyze the contents of these cells, we are able to determine what the cells had enough of nutrient-wise, or what they were lacking, or if toxicities were present. Results typically take up to two (2) weeks at which time results and recommendations will be sent to you.
