Facts About Your Health
Minerals in the body are involved in almost all enzyme reactions, metabolic activity and detoxification cycles. They are vital for the effective absorption and proper function of nutrients and vitamins. Our bodies cannot utilize vitamins and other nutrients without the correct balance of minerals. Proper mineral balance is essential to avoid chronic fatigue, weight gain/loss, headaches, depression and osteoporosis.
Hair Mineral Analysis
Hair Mineral Analysis is a screening test to measure the levels of up to 60 essential minerals and toxic metals. As hair grows it forms a permanent record of the body’s nutritional deficiencies or excesses. High levels of toxic metals inhibit the body’e ability to process and assimilate specific nutritional elements that are essential to good health and have a proven link to many types of diseases.
