HTMA ( Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis)

HTMA ( Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis)

Hair analysis can assist in identifying mineral patterns which may be associated with stress, energy, digestion, blood sugar and carbohydrate imbalances, metabolism, hormones, infections, thyroid, and adrenal activity. Health deteriorates and symptoms increase as mineral ratios go more and more out of balance, so the HTMA can serve as a guide to balance minerals and restore health.

This simple, at-home functional test evaluates 8 toxic metals, 15 nutritional elements, 14 additional elements, and 7 significant mineral ratios, giving you a wealth of insights into your health.

    Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) is the quickest and most affordable way to determine if you have heavy metal toxicity and mineral deficiency - two of the primary drivers of disease today.

    Our 3-in-1 hair testing solution provides accurate health metrics in 3 crucial areas:

    • Key Minerals 

      Balanced levels are critical for over 700 bodily functions

    • Heavy Metals

      Higher levels can be toxic to your health

    •  Metabolism

       Understanding how your body converts what you eat and drink into energy

    Here’s what you’ll learn when you get a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) test: 

    Mineral Imbalances: HTMA tests can identify imbalances of essential minerals, such as calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, copper, iron, zinc, and selenium. This information can help you build nutritional strategies to address any deficiencies in your diet.

    Heavy Metal Toxicity: HTMA tests can detect toxic heavy metals, such as lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic, that can accumulate in your body over time and have negative health effects.

    Tailored Nutrition: With insights from HTMA, personalized nutrition plans can be crafted to address specific deficiencies and promote overall well-being.

    Overall Health: HTMA tests can also provide insights into other aspects of your health, such as your metabolic rate, energy levels, carbohydrate tolerance, stress level, immune system, and thyroid and adrenal glandular activity. This information can help correlate to many different health conditions and help assess the right dietary, detox, or lifestyle plan for you.

    The test is non-invasive, cost-effective, and provides a comprehensive snapshot of your overall health.

    A few stands of hair can hold the key to your health...

    HTMA is a functional lab test that uses a small amount of hair to evaluate the hair's mineral and heavy metal content.

    This information is so valuable because it gives us roughly 3-4 months' worth of cumulative data about what the body is being exposed to and eliminating. We test the hair because it is one of many places in which the body eliminates minerals and heavy metals.

    Your hair sample is collected at home and then sent to the lab for evaluation and analysis. Your result will include a full color report along with detailed explanation of the findings and lifestyle, nutrition, stress reduction, and supplementation recommendations based on your results.

    Getting a hair mineral analysis test is one of the best things you can do for your health. In fact, these hair tests are more accurate than blood or urine tests for your mineral deficiency, heavy metal toxicity, and metabolism. 

    Your hair sample can reveal a lot about your health. Hair test results include your levels of nutritional elements such as calcium, zinc, and magnesium as well as over 30 other markers. They’ll show your levels of heavy metals, and any extra elements inside your hair that reflect your body’s current state.

    How It Works

    We do this by testing a very small amount of your hair. Say no to painful blood draws. We can extract crucial data from your hair samples.  This method is not only easier and more affordable, it also gives you more accurate results than blood!

    Simply follow the instructions in our easy to use hair test kit:

    1. Collect Hair Sample: Collecting your hair sample will only take a few minutes. Scalp hair is the recommended source location. A single tablespoon of hair is enough to tell you all you need to know about your health. We provide a hair scale that helps you achieve the accurate amount needed.
    2. Send Sample: We provide you with instructions, the test requisition form, a hair scale, and shipping materials
    3. Receive Fast Test Results: Your results typically are processed within 2 weeks after our CLIA-Certified and Physician-Approved Lab receives the sample.

    Frequently Asked Questions

     Are hair analysis tests accurate? 

    Hair tissue mineral analysis is supported by an impressive body of literature in a variety of respected national and international scientific publications. Over the past 25 years, hair mineral testing has been extensive. Each year in the United States alone, federally licensed clinical laboratories perform over 150,000 hair mineral assays for health care professionals interested in an additional screening aid for a comprehensive patient evaluation. This does not take into consideration the thousands of subjects used in numerous continuing research studies conducted by private and government research agencies. 

     What minerals are in human hair? 

    Human hair contains many elements, including minerals and toxic metals

    • Calcium (Ca)
    • Magnesium (Mg)
    • Sodium (Na)
    • ​Potassium (K)
    • ​Zinc (Zn)
    • ​Phosphorus (P)
    • Iron (Fe)
    • Chromium (Cr)
    • ​Selenium (Se)
    • ​Boron (B)
    • ​Cobalt (Co)
    • ​Sulfur (S)

    Other important elements such as Vanadium can also be found. Your hair can show you the entire periodic table.

     What can my Hair Analysis reveal? 

    As you can tell from above, we can identify a lot! The test results will show your mineral deficiencies and imbalances. They’ll also show the presence of any potentially harmful levels of heavy metals in your system. The test can be a great wake-up call for the kinds of minerals and nutrients you should be consuming. You will receive insight into your metabolic activity, adrenal function, thyroid function, and parathyroid activity. 

     What About Heavy Metals? 

    While we’re exposed to countless toxins in the modern world, none are as damaging as heavy metals.There are over 30 toxic heavy metals that negatively affect your health. Here are 8 most common metals that most people have in their body...

    Mercury (Hg):  Someone with mercury amalgam fillings, sushi lovers and people that regularly eat fish in their diet... often have a lot of mercury.

    Arsenic (As): If you’ve eaten conventional chickens and eggs for any period in your life, you are going to have arsenic in your body

    Cadmium (Cd):  If you smoked cigarettes, were exposed to secondhand smoke or lived near an industrial area you will have cadmium toxicity.

    Thailium (Tl): 10x more toxic than mercury. Everyone is breathing it in the air from coal burning, smog and car exhaust.

    Aluminum (Al): Found in underarm deodorant, cosmetics, dental fillings, vaccines, the air we breathe and aluminum cans.

    Cesium (Cs): Nuclear fallout from Fukushima and other nuclear disasters and testing contributes to fatigue, muscle cramps, and cancers.

    Nickel (Ni): Found in fast and processed foods, partially hydrogenated oils, jewelry, braces and air pollution from cars and coal burning.

    Lead (Pb) :  Lead is ingested from lipstick, mascara and auto exhaust. It’s still in the soils from leaded gasoline (banned decades ago)

    What should I do with the results of my HTMA? 

    Your hair test can help you and your doctor find and use targeted supplementation in response to major deficiencies of VITAL minerals such as Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, Copper, Manganese, Germanium, Chromium, Potassium, Iron, Vanadium and others, and take action with our minerals or another brand whom you trust to take action and make changes.
