HAIR TISSUE MINERAL ANALYSIS (HTMA)

(16 Minerals; 36 Mineral Ratios)

Heavy Metals
 (5 Metals; 14 Metal Ratios)


 

MOST FREQUENT SYMPTOMS AND HEALTH CHALLENGES THAT RESULT FROM ABNORMAL HAIR TISSUE MINERAL VALUES

Document
 
Introduction:  Minerals are the messengers of the human body.  Zinc, for example, is required for the proper function of over 69 enzymes in the human body, and Male hormone function, especially, relies on zinc sufficiency.  The TMA tests for deficiencies and excesses in all essential minerals, calcium, sodium, magnesium, potassium, selenium, chromium, zinc, iron, phosphorus, etc.

Minerals balance affects:
  • Blood Sugar Balance,
  • Cardio-Vascular System,
  • Vitality
  • Anti-Aging,
  • Thyroid Function
  • Adrenal Function,
  • Mineral Metabolism, 
  • Oxidation - fast or slow; oxidation provides insights into the function of the metabolism.
  • Protein, identifies protein deficiency, protein metabolism and protein usage, i.e., whether the cells can even use the protein once it is transported to the cells.
  • Anabolic, which means the body has the ability to regenerate cells, heal tissue, and repair itself.
  • Catabolism,, which means cellular degeneration, the body is breaking down, exiting the world.
  • and the TMA also identifies Toxic and Heavy Metals, such as Mercury, Aluminum, Arsenic, Lead, etc. 
Again, because minerals are required to transport hormones, insulin and other substances from their organs/glands to the cells, a comprehensive clinical nutrition analysis of your biochemistry requires a Tissue Mineral Hair Analysis along with any other test, whether it is saliva, urine, stool, or blood..

Mineral Deficiencies also perpetuates Eating Disorders, like anorexia and bulimia.


 
MINERALS ARE REQUIRED
TO TRANSPORT HORMONES

TO THE CELLS

Therefore, a comprehensive clinical nutrition analysis of Hormone Function and/or Bone health requires a Tissue Mineral (Hair) Analysis, PLUS, the Saliva Hormone or the Bone Resorption Urine Tests, respectively.


HORMONE IMBALANCE MAY BE CAUSED FROM:
  • A dysfunctional gland not producing sufficient Adrenal, Thyroid, Female or Male Hormones,
  • Mineral Deficiencies or Excesses,
  • Dysfunction in Metabolism,
  • Toxicity or Trauma
  • or a Combination of any one or more of the above.

Therefore, blood chemistry hormone tests alone is insufficient to evaluate the thyroid, female/male or any hormone.  Now read "A Typical Occurrence Today Regarding "Thyroid Dysfunction" to the right, which applies to any hormone.

 
A TYPICAL OCCURRENCE TODAY REGARDING....

THYROID DYSFUNCTION
(HYPO OR HYPER-THYROID)


Anyone taking, for example, thyroid hormone drug therapy, based on abnormal medical thyroid hormone blood chemistry values alone, may cause damage to their thyroid, when the true cause of hypo- or hyper-thyroid hormone imbalance in the blood is Mineral deficiencies or excesses. 

In other words, the thyroid glands are functioning normally and producing thyroid hormones, but the minerals are not transporting them to the cells, so the hormones are sent to the blood, which will then transport the hormones to the liver, so the liver can change the unused hormones to a water-soluble substance that can then be eliminated from the body.

This metabolic process occurs whether it is hormones are from glands of the thyroid, adrenals, female/male, etc., or the other endocrine substances, such as insulin from the pancreas.  Thus, even in the case of diabetes, the blood sugar imbalance may not be from a lack of insulin production from the pancreas, but the lack of the minerals to transport the insulin.  Therefore,  a Tissue Mineral Hair Analysis is required for mineral evaluation along with any other cellular test (saliva, urine or stool) and blood testing. 

    
This applies to all hormones (thyroids, adrenals, male/female, pituitary, hypothalmus, thymus...)

Calcium (Homeostasis is 40

On the HTMA (Page 1) the Calcium Value of 313 in the Previous Text Box  was successfully reduce to 155 in just 3 months, which is the first retesting of the initial HTMA to determine how much progress a client's body can make in a 3-month period.  Since the goal is a Value of 40 for Homeostasis, with an acceptable Value in the Range of 28-79 ,  the next retest is now calculated  four months, considering that the pace of reduction has moved approximately 40 points per month. 

Excess Calcium (Value over 79) is observed in 99% of all new clients.  The primary cause is the daily intake of synthetic and/or isolated Calcium or extreme ongoing stress.  .  This elevation is an example of what can happen when people take vitamins and minerals without first being tested.   Decreasing a value of 313 to 155 in 3-months also demonstrates how effective Dr. Smith's therapeutic whole food supplement program is for "detoxifying" excessive minerals.  Because all minerals are affected by all other minerals, when an a extreme elevation in any minerals is reduced, it will have a chain reaction throughout all mineral levels.  This is seen by the decrease in almost all of the other Essential Minerals.   However, when this is observed in the clinical nutrition analysis of the hair tests,  and there is a reduction os,  above that the initial Calcium test was 313 (Refer to box under the
