HTMA (the Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis):

A great test that is performed at home, all you have to do is cut a sample of your hair at the base of your head. Through this test, we can get a picture of how effectively different bodily systems are functioning, what the levels are of many of your different minerals in your body and also whether you have too much exposure to various dangerous heavy metals.

With this information, we can tailor your diet and supplement protocols to make sure you have sufficient intake of key minerals and also to help you detox any undesirable heavy metals. Mineral balancing is key to your nutrient status, proper bodily function of all systems, and even in signaling satiety and limiting cravings. In the example below, we can see that this client has numerous mineral imbalances (they should all fall within the blue shaded area). She also has too much Aluminum and Mercury in her system. In addition, many of her mineral ratios are out of balance, implicating possible dysfunction in various body systems.
