How will Hair Mineral Analysis Testing help you?

Analysing your mineral levels is the first step. Once you know your individual needs, a personal Mineral check programme of supplements exactly designed to suit you can help your body function better and improve your health.

Why use hair?
Hair is ideal for mineral testing. Unlike blood, it can be sampled easily and it is simple to transport. When it reaches the skin's surface, the hair's outer layers harden and locking a blueprint of the nutritional metabolic activity during the past 1-2months. A properly obtained sample indicates your body's mineral levels and your accumulation of toxic metals. You can detect what the levels are right now and see how the levels have changed during the last month or two. A blood test cannot do this.

Should I have a retest - and if so, when?
If you have observed the recommendations, then we suggest a retest no earlier than 60 days. This will allow enough time for your body's mineral balance to be affected. Improvements in imbalances will vary from person to person and are dependent on many factors. These tests can be taken on their own but highly recommend you have a Naturopathic Nutritional program alongside.
