Hair Analysis Profile 2 Price Includes: Hair Analysis Testing Phone Consultation Personal Holistic Nutritional Program Profile 2: Lab Test and Complete Interpretation: This includes the entire mineral assay test that shows your mineral levels and ratios. You are provides with a chart that identifies the patient and graphically describes his/her tests. Plus a through interpretative work-up that lists trends, provides a detailed explanation of the results, and compares significant mineral ratios. Along with a phone consult and personal holistic nutritional program. Why Use Hair Mineral Testing to Design Nutrition Programs There are many ways to assess nutritional status including symptom questionnaires, iridology, kinesiology, diet sheets, computer analysis, blood tests, etc. Why use a controversial tool such as measuring tissue mineral levels in hair? Here are 12 reasons: A Window Into The Cells Nutritional physiology takes place at the cellular level, not within blood or any other location. What you eat is not as important as what is reaching your body cells. Tissue mineral analysis is unique in that it inexpensively provides information directly about cellular activity the main site of nutritional metabolism Detecting Toxic Minerals Toxic metals are a serious problem today, contributing to many metabolic disorders and distressing symptoms including fatigue, infections, high blood pressure, heart disease, cancer and diabetes. While routine blood tests cannot detect chronic heavy metal poisoning, tissue mineral analysis is one of the few methods approved by the Environmental Protection Agency for detecting toxic metals in the body. Understanding Emotions Biochemical imbalances can contribute to many mental and emotional conditions. We know of no other tool that even comes close to tissue mineral testing to predict, explain and suggest nutritional solutions for such common complaints as anxiety, depression, hyperactivity, phobias, insomnia, etc. Rebuilding The Body's Energy Mechanism Having an adequate energy level is essential for health. All body activities including healing depend upon adequate energy synthesis. Tissue mineral analysis can be used to assess the efficiency of the energy system of the body including the glycolysis and citric acid cycles and to recommend nutrients and foods that will assist inrebuilding the energy system. Determining Oxidation Types Dr George Watson discovered that some people burn food at a more rapid rate than normal, and some at a slower rate. Knowing a person's oxidation rate, as he called it, can help decide which nutrients would be most helpful to restore balance. Giving the wrong nutrients can make your health problems worse. Tissue mineral analysis can be utilized to determine an individual's oxidation rate with mathematical precision. Identifying Trends One of the most useful concepts in health care is to be able to identify trends before they occur, so that action can be taken to avoid them Twenty or more trends can be identified from a properly interpreted tissue mineral analysis. The ability to identify trends alone makes tissue mineral analysis an invaluable test. Exact Amounts of Supplements and Proportions of Foods One problem in designing nutrition programs is determining how much and which nutrients and foods to recommend. Because of its mathematical nature hair mineral analysis offers a way to determine supplement dosage and proportions of foods with greater accuracy. Assessing Organ, Gland and Tissue Function Levels and ratios of tissue minerals relate to the activity of specific organs and glands. By calculating ratios on a tissue mineral test the function of major glands and organs can be assessed, often long before abnormalities appear on x-rays and blood tests. Constructing a Picture of One's Body Chemistry Though not done by many who claim to understand hair analysis the correct interpretation of the hair test allows construction of a metabolic picture of the way your body is functioning and the way it is responding to stress. We know of no other simple test that allows for the construction of this metabolic blueprint. Monitoring Progress A Common problem in nutritional therapy is determining if a person is actually improving, especially if some symptoms persist or new symptoms arise. Repeat tissue mineral test and comparison with previous tests can often provide answers as to whether improvement is occurring, why some symptoms persist and what to expect in the future. Superiority Over Blood Tests Blood test will always be valuable to determine cholesterol, hemoglobin levels and many other parameters. However blood tests are incapable of providing the information provided by the hair analysis. There are several reasons why: Mineral levels in blood are ten times less than they are in the tissues, making measurement difficult. Also, blood levels are kept within very narrow limits by the body for various reasons, so that readings vary but little and less information can be gleaned. Blood tests are subject to daily fluctuation due to foods eaten the previous day, emotional states, etc. Hair analysis will not vary from day to day and provides a long term metabolic blueprint. Understanding this difference avoids much confusion and the long term reading can be used to definite advantage Accuracy and Reliability While some criticism of the accuracy of tissue mineral testing has been made procedures exist to make the test as accurate or more accurate than blood tests. No test is 100% accurate Tissue mineral analysis by atomic absorption is not new. It has been around for 30 years and is used in every industrial and university chemistry lab. New computer controlled instruments make excellent reliability possible Results of tissue tests can vary because instrumentation and handling procedures differ from lab to lab. This is a problem with some laboratories, however, not with the test. I only use one laboratory.
