Hair analysis for health

Most ill health starts with the simple combination of the effects of our diet, environment and lifestyle on a body that is not designed to cope with the demands put on it.

Our diets are usually depleted of nutrients and bring us into contact with intolerant foods and chemicals, these promote poor gut function and over acidity. The lack of substantial nutrition weakens our immune system and slows down the body’s natural processes allowing persistent illness. Each individual is different and there is usually a specific set of factors that combine and cause problems in each unique case.

Hair testing is a tried and tested natural health protocol. Our hair stores information relating to the body’s chemistry and energy, this information is held in the form of energy patterns. The energy patterns of the many natural substances make up and affect the body and its processes are stored in the root of your hair. Hair testing is less intrusive than taking blood, easier to transport and sample. Hair analysis can help identify and provide you with a lasting solution to your condition.

The hair test will highlight the following problems:

Food intolerance

Intolerance is the continued low level reaction to something usually food. Intolerances draw on the body’s resources leaving it less able to cope with other irritants. Skin conditions, breathing problems, irritable bowel, and pain are often associated symptoms of intolerance to a food type or types. If left unchecked, food intolerances can develop into full blown allergies that can lead to very negative consequences.

Nutritional Deficiencies

Most people are under the impression that, malnutrition is often only associated with starvation, but this is not the case. Malnutrition is not the acute lack of calories but the massive depletion of micronutrients or minerals essential for all our metabolic functions to occur. Our diets generally contain more calories than we need with our more sedentary lifestyles and far too few nutrients that we need to cope with the increased stress levels the body is under.

Pathogens and toxins

Pathogenic and toxic influences such as bacteria, fungus, parasites, toxic metals, chemicals, radiation virus and post virus put the immune system under stress and block its natural processes from working properly. Our lifestyles make us vulnerable daily to pathogens and toxins, from parasites that are prevalent in dairy products to toxic metals in our cookware.
