intro to functional lab testing!

wishing you had more energy? are you exhausted by 3 p.m. every day?

If you feel stressed, tired, anxious or overwhelmed it could be a sign your nervous system is strained. Minerals include electrolytes, which provide the energy you need to get through the day and buffer the effects of stress. The Mineral & Metals Test takes a comprehensive look at adrenal function; the body's stress support system, as well as toxic metal exposure. If mineral reserves are low, electrolytes are imbalanced or if you've been exposed to high levels of toxic metals, you won't be able to deal with stress effectively and may experience a range of health challenges. This is a great place to start to learn more about your health!

The Mineral & Metals Test will give you clear insight into possible adrenal dysfunction as well as help you discover early warning signs of heavy metal toxicity by analyzing a hair sample. Minerals are key for overall good health and are often overlooked. In fact, imbalances of essential minerals like sodium, magnesium and potassium can not only cause fatigue but could possibly be an indicator of more serious health issues over time. Toxins can't be avoided, and we are exposed to heavy metals in our daily environment. From the food you eat, air or water pollution, certain medicines, food containers with a harmful coating, personal care products we use on our skin and in our homes can all contain harmful chemicals and increase our toxic load. Arsenic, cadmium, lead and mercury are among four of the most common heavy metals that can cause health challenges. You will receive a private wellness call with me to discuss your current health and an explanation of your lab results. I will recommend a beginner plan for you to restore mineral imbalances and remove accumulated toxicities. From here, you'll be on the path to better manage stress, improve your energy levels, enjoy more restful sleep and a balanced mood.

are you suffering from …

  • High Stress

  • Low Energy and Fatigue

  • Poor Sleep

  • Headaches

  • Skin Rashes

  • Tingling or Numbness

Testing your essential mineral levels and potential toxic metal exposure can provide valuable insight into the underlying reasons why you feel overly stressed, anxious or overwhelmed, experience highs/lows in energy, skin rashes, headaches, poor sleep, mood disturbances or even learning difficulties in children. Taking a close look at calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium can help uncover the root causes of fatigue and poor stress management. In addition, assessing toxic heavy metal levels can identify if you have been exposed to high levels of mercury, cadmium, arsenic and aluminum that can cause a wide range of health related challenges. Hair testing reveals key information about your level of metabolic activity; unlike blood, hair is less susceptible to the homeostatic mechanisms that quickly affect trace element levels and long-term deviations of mineral retention or losses are more easily detected in hair. This Mineral & Metals Test will identify key mineral imbalances and assess your toxic metal exposure, providing pertinent information about metabolic rate, energy levels and stage of stress using a simple hair sample.
