Can hair mineral analysis help me?
If you have a disease or illness that has not responded to conventional treatment, you may wish to explore other possibilities and HMA is an excellent place to start. If you are suffering from ‘unexplained’ problems such as headaches, backaches, weakness or tremors, HMA may help you to get to the bottom of it.
If you can answer ‘yes’ to five or more of these questions HMA may provide information which, if acted upon, could benefit your health.
- Do you live in a city or by a busy road?
- Do you spend more than two hours a week in traffic?
- Do you buy foods exposed to exhaust fumes (i.e. on display at a road-side stall)?
- Do you exercise or walk by busy roads?
- Do you live or work in a smoky atmosphere?
- Do you exercise or walk by busy roads?
- Do you smoke more than 5 cigarettes a day?
- Do you usually drink unfiltered tap-water?
- Do you have two or more amalgam dental fillings?
- Do you suffer from exposure to pollutants in your job (e.g. printing) or hobby (gardening)?
- Do you spend a lot of time in front of a TV or VDU?
- Do you generally eat non-organic produce?
- Do you drink more than 1 unit of alcohol a day? (1 glass of wine, 1 pint of beer or 1 shot of spirits)?
- Or you may just be feeling under par without knowing why.
Are just toxic minerals examined?
No – the HMA will examine the status of the essential minerals such as calcium, magnesium, zinc, chromium and a whole host of others. Modern food processing methods strip nutrients from food.
Did you know that a massive 98% of chromium is stripped from flour in the refining process. Not heard of chromium?
It is an essential part of the ‘Glucose Tolerance Factor’ which controls blood sugar, stimulates burning of food for energy, controls blood cholesterol levels, reduces blood fat levels and suppresses hunger symptoms.
Do you have any reason to suspect that your body may be in short supply? Modern farming methods have also depleted the mineral content of soil and addition of some fertilizers can make minerals unavailable to plants.
If sodium (in table salt), calcium (in dairy products) and phosphorous (in fizzy drinks) are present in excess in your diet, these can upset the natural mineral ratios. Is fluoride in your water supply depressing your calcium absorption?
The graphs in an HMA will reveal information you never dreamed possible.
