Hair mineral analysis testing analyses a small sample of hair to determine the levels of various minerals and trace elements in the body.

Additional Information

This test is based on the principle that the levels of these elements in hair can provide information about their levels in other tissues and organs of the body. Hair testing provides information about the levels of these elements in the body over a period of time, typically several months. It can be used to monitor the effectiveness of treatments aimed at correcting nutrient deficiencies or reducing heavy metal toxicity over time. Hair mineral analysis testing can provide information about the levels of various minerals and trace elements in the body, as well as toxic elements. This information can be used to identify deficiencies or excesses of these elements, as well as potential exposure to toxic elements.

Iron (µg/dL)
Iron (Fe) is essential for hemoglobin production and oxygen transport. Low levels can lead to anemia, while high levels may indicate iron overload disorders.
Manganese (NA)
NA
Selenium (NA)
NA
Zinc (µg/dL)
Zinc is a trace element crucial for immune function, wound healing, and DNA synthesis. Low levels can lead to impaired immunity and delayed wound healing.
Calcium (mg/dL)
Calcium (Ca) is a mineral vital for bone health, muscle function, and nerve signaling. Abnormal levels can suggest bone, kidney, or parathyroid issues.
Magnesium (mmol/L)
Magnesium and calcium work together closely to maintain strong bones, and magnesium deficiency has been associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis.
