Did you know that vitamin and mineral deficiencies, or an excess of heavy toxic metals can hinder your chances of a successful pregnancy? One of the simplest ways of discovering whether you’re deficient in some essential nutrients or are overloaded with heavy metals is to have a hair mineral analysis.

Hair cells are among the quickest growing cells in our bodies and ‘record’ all the good and bad stuff we’re exposed to - whether in our diets or from the environment. In a hair mineral analysis, a small sample of hair is laboratory-tested, and a picture emerges of the levels of minerals like calcium, magnesium, zinc, copper, selenium, manganese and chromium in your body. In addition, it measures heavy metals including mercury, aluminium, lead, cadmium and arsenic.

Once you know where you are, supplements and/or a simple course of homeopathic treatment can rectify any deficiencies, as well as cleaning your body of toxins. This will give you the best chance of getting pregnant.

So - if you’d like to find out more about having a hair mineral analysis done, contact us and we’ll be happy to advise you.
