                Hair Mineral Analysis Test    £95

                Picture
                A Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) simply stated, is a screening test that measures the mineral content of your hair. However, a hair tissue mineral analysis is much more than a test for minerals. Providing a mineral blueprint of one’s biochemistry, a hair tissue mineral analysis can provide pertinent information about your metabolic rate, energy levels, sugar and carbohydrate tolerance, toxic metals, stage of stress, immune system and glandular activity.

                A hair tissue mineral analysis is a screening test for the level of 20 minerals and toxic metals in a sample of hair. It is a tissue mineral biopsy that is non-invasive, relatively inexpensive and extremely accurate using the Perkin Elmer Elan 9000 ICP Mass Spectrometer to assess mineral levels in parts per million or parts per billion. The same technology is used for soil testing and testing of rock samples to detect mineral levels.

                Test results are printed on an easy-to-read
                 graph and includes a 15-20 page report with information related to your metabolic rate, energy levels, sugar and carbohydrate tolerance, immune system, autonomic balance, glandular activity and metabolic trends, a personal dietary supplement program, basic diet recommendations and other information that can be inferred from the test results.

                This is widely used for preconceptual care and subfertility issues and is imperative before embarking on a plan.
