Benefits of Hair Testing for Anti Aging

Hair testing for minerals and heavy metals offers several benefits, including:

  1. Non-invasive: Hair testing is a non-invasive method of assessing mineral and heavy metal levels in the body. It involves collecting a small sample of hair, which can be easily obtained from the scalp or other areas of the body.

  2. Long-term exposure assessment: Hair provides a record of mineral and heavy metal exposure over an extended period. Since hair grows at a relatively slow and consistent rate, a strand of hair can provide information about exposure to minerals and heavy metals over several months.

  3. Comprehensive analysis: Hair testing can provide a comprehensive analysis of mineral and heavy metal levels. It allows for the assessment of a wide range of elements, including essential minerals like zinc, iron, and magnesium, as well as toxic metals like lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic.

  4. Early detection of imbalances or toxicity: Hair testing can help detect imbalances or excessive levels of minerals and heavy metals before symptoms manifest. This early detection can enable proactive measures to address potential deficiencies or reduce exposure to toxic elements.

  5. Monitoring treatment progress: For individuals undergoing treatments for mineral deficiencies or heavy metal detoxification, hair testing can be used to monitor the effectiveness of interventions over time. By periodically testing the hair, changes in mineral and heavy metal levels can be tracked to assess treatment progress.

  6. Individualized nutritional guidance: Hair testing results can provide valuable insights into an individual's nutritional status and help tailor personalized dietary and supplement recommendations. Identifying mineral imbalances or deficiencies can guide interventions to optimize nutritional health.

  7. Occupational and environmental exposure assessment: Hair testing is valuable in assessing occupational or environmental exposure to heavy metals. It can be used to identify potential sources of contamination and evaluate the effectiveness of workplace safety measures or environmental remediation efforts.

  8. Research and epidemiological studies: Hair testing data can be used in research and epidemiological studies to investigate associations between mineral/heavy metal levels and various health conditions. This information can contribute to a better understanding of the impact of these elements on human health.

How Heavy Metal Chelation Can Help Your Health!

DMPS Chelation Therapy Benefits

DMPS (2,3-dimercapto-1-propanesulfonic acid) is a chelating agent that is used in chelation therapy to remove heavy metals from the body. It is similar to another chelating agent called DMSA (2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid). Here are some potential benefits of DMPS chelation therapy:

Heavy metal detoxification: DMPS is primarily used to remove toxic heavy metals, such as mercury, lead, arsenic, and cadmium, from the body. These metals can accumulate in tissues over time and may cause various health issues. DMPS binds to these metals and facilitates their excretion through urine.

Treatment of heavy metal toxicity: DMPS chelation therapy is often used as a treatment for heavy metal poisoning or toxicity. It can be effective in cases where acute or chronic exposure to heavy metals has occurred, such as in cases of occupational exposure or accidental ingestion.

Neurological benefits: Some research suggests that DMPS chelation therapy may have benefits for certain neurological conditions associated with heavy metal toxicity. For example, it has been studied as a potential treatment for mercury toxicity and its neurological effects, including cognitive impairment and neurodevelopmental disorders.

Cardiovascular health: Chelation therapy, including DMPS, has been explored as a potential treatment for cardiovascular diseases, particularly atherosclerosis. Some studies have suggested that chelation therapy may help remove heavy metals from blood vessels, reduce inflammation, and improve blood flow, potentially leading to cardiovascular benefits.

Antioxidant effects: DMPS has been found to possess antioxidant properties, which may help reduce oxidative stress in the body. Oxidative stress can contribute to various health problems, including cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative disorders, and aging. By reducing oxidative stress, DMPS may have potential benefits for overall health.



Fibroids

ute

Fibroids are actually not fibrous at all but actually growths of smooth muscle and connective tissue. They're usually found on the walls of the uterus. They are not cancerous and usually harmless. They generally occur more in the African or Caribbean descent.

What are symptoms associated with fibroids?

Many don't have symptoms at all and they are found on a routine exam or ultrasound.

However when they do have symptoms, it can cause:

·      Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding, bleeding in between periods. as a result anemia can develop. Important note: if you need to change your pads more than once per hour, please see a health specialist.

·      Pain during intercourse

·      Swelling and or pain in the lower abdomen can occur as well as frequent urge to urinate, back pain.

·      Constipation can happen as well.


Root causes

·      Estrogen dominance which basically is an imbalance of estrogen vs. Progesterone, this can be caused from many factors including-- environmental estrogens or xenoestrogens which is rampant in our environment. Chemicals herbicides pesticides Etc., are the Usual Suspects in this arena

·      Obesity

·      Hypothyroid

·      Peri-menopause

·      Diet

·      Hereditary and age and race

·      High blood pressure

·      Early menstruation

·      Oral contraceptives what other birth control methods

Testing

Blood, urine, heavy metal testing, stool testing, are common ways to determine the root causes of fibroids.

Treatment options

Testing is critical to finding the root causes, there are many treatment options including

Changing diet, avoiding certain foods, detoxification, homeopathy, PEMF (Pulsed electromagnetic Fields) acupressure all factor in to reaching your health goals with fibroids. Finding the right tailored program for you is ideal for reaching your goals.

The Next Big Thing in Kids Supplements

If you have kids, you know how tough it can be for some kids to swallow supplements. You know that they should be having their vegetables, vitamins and minerals.  Getting it down is another story. For certain kids, its very easy but for other kids it's like pulling teeth.

If your kids are healthy, does it matter the name of the disease?  In our age of Attention deficit, Autism, Allergies, Asthma, Exzema & Learning disorders, our sanity as a family can be greatly compromised. Here is a more natural way to help your kids with these conditions.

With all the above conditions,  the key is doing the appropriate testing and especially spending time with the family to get a full history.  This helps laser in on potential causes of the problem.  The bottom line is that "drug free" solutions don't mean a "hill of beans" if they can't swallow the solution. Here is a great site to give you hints on getting it into their bodies.
