Hair Analysis tests look at the mineral composition of the body, as well as being indicative of energy, metabolism, detoxification ability, thyroid and adrenal levels. It can even be indicative of a future cardio or high blood pressure issues. Minerals have an effect on every process in our body, and each mineral affects the levels of every other mineral. Because of this, it is important to keep these in optimal balance if we want our bodies to be at their best performance levels. Hair is the second most metabolically active tissue in the body, and gives us reliable results as to what is going on in the body.
The most common reason people want to get a hair analysis done is to help support symptoms of fatigue and brain fog. These symptoms can lead to more serious conditions like ADD/ ADHD or chronic fatigue syndrome. When toxic metals build up in the brain, they will start attempting to replace other minerals in their day to day processes, which then severely slows and limits these processes. Human brains are not naturally filled with these metals, but because of environmental sources (an example being tap water, or metals used as preservatives in vaccines) they are much more common than they should be. hair analysis test
Another main reason people may need a hair analysis test done is if they are in pain. If metals are building up in the tissues, the important minerals that reduce pain like calcium, magnesium and zinc which supports tissue healing may not be able to do the job they are supposed to do.
Hair analysis also looks at the “good” minerals like calcium, magnesium, lithium, sodium, iodine, potassium, iron, copper, manganese and zinc. These minerals are used in every enzyme reaction in the body, and if they are out of balance these processes can either happen too slowly or too quickly which sets the body out of balance. The most common reason for deficiencies in these good minerals is diet. Years of junk food, processed food, food additives, color dyes, pesticides and overall toxins in our society. Stress which leads to adrenal fatigue can also lead to minerals being depleted which reduces the body’s ability to detox which increases toxicity from metals.
The third largest use for hair analysis is to identify a possible thyroid or adrenal imbalance. Some people might ask “why not just use a blood test?” A blood test can identify if you have a thyroid or adrenal condition, but a hair analysis can identify if you will be getting a thyroid or adrenal condition in your near future. The benefit of a hair analysis is that it looks at the stored levels, rather than the levels currently being used. For example if sodium and potassium are very low the person may be experiencing sluggish adrenal and/or thyroid fatigue. If sodium and potassium are high, the person may be experiencing hyper or fast adrenal and/or thyroid function which might not show up in the blood.
As you can see, there are many reasons a hair analysis may benefit you. It is highly beneficial in telling a story of YOUR health and wellness.
