    _____________________________________________
    Hair that has been dyed, bleached, permed, or otherwise chemically treated is vulnerable to elemental contamination Therefore, the hair must be grown out at least 1 inch for testing to be accurately performed. If applicable pubic hair can be used instead.

    Hair Elements analysis is important for measuring toxic metals that can impede development and normal brain functioning. Heavy metal representation can be difficult to determine because heavy metals will bind to soft tissue and are not water soluble. Hair is a soft tissue and therefore can give an accurate reflection of heavy metals in the body. Heavy Metals such as mercury may be 250 times higher in the hair than in the blood. Heavy metals can have profound affects on neurotransmission and immunity. When toxic metals are reduced, immune function and neurotransmission are greatly improved. This test will produce an accurate picture of the toxic representation of metals such as lead, arsenic, and mercury. It will also give information about other important elemental metals such as selenium, Lithium and other elements essential for normal growth and good health. This noninvasive screening test requires only .25 grams of hair.
