My natropath has recommended I have a hair analysis report done. What you do is cut off a 4cm piece of hair at the back of your head near your neck (about 10 - 20 strands depending on how thick or fine it is) and he sends it in for testing... you have to wait for hair dye to grow out (about 6-8 weeks).

I was shown a report done recently for another client (name hidden). It was amazing! Very detailed. It showed that he had copper toxicity (too much of it in his system) along with several other things.... plus a few deficiencies. All minerals are detected. The patient used it to show his GP who i think was reluctant to test him for hypothyroidism (slow metabolism..... the patient was finding it hard to lose weight). The report stated all the diseases the person could be suffering from if the levels continued unchanged.

So i was wondering if anyone has had this done? Was it helpful and how much did it cost? I was quoted $140.
