Key Takeaways
- Take a quantitative approach, it’s better to test to know what you need
- Hair can be tested for mineral deficiency, heavy metal toxicity, thyroid, adrenal and hormones
- Certain ratios give insight into your testosterone and oestrogen balance
- By the time a deficiency shows up in the blood, it could have been seen years earlier in the hair
- Having knowledge sooner could make a difference in taking action
- The most important aspects of the building blocks of hormones are elemental minerals
- Detoxing without knowing what toxic elements you need to detox is not a sophisticated approach
- When you have a mineral deficiency you accumulate toxic metals more quickly
- If your adrenals don’t have the nutrients they need you won’t be able to mobilise the toxins enough to remove them
- Supplementing with zinc all the time can mean the individual becomes very analytical, zinc and iron are very masculine elements
- Copper is a creative element and can lead to you starting projects and not completing them
- All the elements work together and it’s the balance and relationship with each other
