HAIR MINERAL & HEAVY
METAL TOXICITY TEST
Lia
Mills, Naturopath always recommends a hair mineral & heavy
metal toxicity test to all prospect parents to rule
out mineral deficiencies and heavy metal toxicity.
What
is a Hair Mineral Analysis?
It
is a specialized test that measures the levels of trace
minerals found in a sample of hair.
The analysis
gives quantitative data that helps provide indications
to mineral deficiencies, imbalances, excesses of
several essential and toxic minerals.
Why should I test for Minerals?
Minerals are important to metabolic functions in all
phases of your life processes. They provide the building
blocks to life and are essential in the production
of hormones and the activity of enzymes.
Dr. Emanual Cheraskin states in his book, Diet
and Disease that "Minerals have interrelationships
with every other nutrient. Without optimum mineral
levels
within the body, the other nutrients are not effectively
utilized.
Why use hair for mineral assessment?
Unlike blood, hair is less susceptible to the homeostatic
mechanisms that quickly affect trace element levels.
In addition, long term imbalances of mineral retention
or losses are more easily detected in hair than blood.
