WHAT IS HAIR TISSUE MINERAL ANALYSIS?
Hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA), is an analytical test which measures the mineral and toxic elements of the hair. A person’s mineral content can give us good insight on what is going on inside the body. It can tell us someone's metabolic rate, nervous system health, vitality, thyroid health, adrenal health, hormonal health, blood sugar stability, cardiovascular health and overall immune system health. The toxic element measurement can give us an idea of which toxins the body is struggling with most.
WHAT CAN HTMA HELP WITH?
You name it- HTMA can usually help heal it. The body is so interconnected that minerals literally have an impact on every aspect of our body. Most issues are caused by a mineral deficiency, abundance, or toxic overload. Balancing minerals is the key to healing. Here are some of the most popular reasons people turn to HTMA.
· Thyroid & Adrenal Health
· Digestion & Gut Healing
· Chronic Pain or Fatigue
· Hormone Balancing
· Insomnia
· Stress
· Anxiety
· Behavioral issues
· Learning disabilities
· Detoxification support
· Weight Loss
WHAT CAUSES A MINERAL IMBALANCE?
Stress
Physical or emotional stress can deplete minerals at a rapid rate as well as reduce the body's capability of absorbing and utilizing nutrients.
Inherited Mineral Patterns
Deficiencies and excesses of minerals can be inherited from our parents. We can also pass on our toxic load to our unborn children. I personally have learned this first hand when discovering my children's mineral patterns closely resembled mine.
Medications
Prescription and over the counter medications can deplete the body of stored nutrients, decrease the body's ability to absorb nutrients, and increase the body's toxic load. Some examples of these are diuretics, antacids, NSAIDS, aspirin and oral contraceptives.
Nutritional Supplements
Taking the wrong supplements or incorrect amounts can really disrupt the mineral balance in your body. Many isolated supplements can affect other minerals and cause an excess and/or deficiency causing a person to become even more imbalanced. I learned this the hard way when jumping on both the Vitamin D and Magnesium craze.
Environmental Toxins
In today's world the average person comes into contact with over 500 toxic chemicals per day. All these toxins become a burden to our bodies and overload our livers so much they are unable to function as they should. Just a couple of examples are: Cigarette smoke (cadmium), hair dyes (lead), hydrogenated oils (nickel), deodorant (aluminum), lead based cosmetics, copper and aluminum cookware, dental amalgams. These and many other toxins can have major effects on our minerals and metabolic function.
