Using a Hair Test to Determine Your Nutritional Needs

Many people poo-poo the idea of using a hair test to determine nutritional supplementation. They say it's only really good for determining toxic metals in your body.

If you haven't studied hair analysis extensively, you might think the same way. But a hair analysis, done properly in a qualified lab can provide you with a wealth of information about your metabolism, your immune system, your level of stress, your energy level, how well you tolerate carbohydrates and your potential for developing numerous different diseases long before they actually occur. It may surprise you that the nutrients found in your hair can even give information about your tendency to be shy or outgoing, or if you tend to be moody, depressed or anxious.

You can even learn what foods you should eat and what supplements you should take from your hair test.

Learn more about why a hair test is one of the best ways to dertermine your body's most important nutritional needs.

The "Everyone Needs Calcium" Myth

You've probably seen the ads saying that calcium is good for your bones and teeth. It's claimed to prevent osteoporosis. From what you read, see and hear in the media, it makes you think that everyone needs calcium.

However, did you know that if you're a slow oxidizer, i.e. your body releases energy too slowly, calcium is going to slow you down even more. It will slow down your thyroid gland and you will feel more tired.

Are you tired all the time? Are you low on energy? Are you taking vitamin and mineral supplements, but they don't seem to give you the energy you want? Have you tried many different supplements, but none seem to give you the energy you want?

If so, your body chemnistry is out of balance. Taking nutrients that your body doesn't need can cause an even greater imbalance. It's not true that if you take supplements that your body doesn't need, it will just eliminate them. Find out why here...

The Myth That One Size Fits All

Have you ever wondered why you didn't feel any different when you took a nutritional product a friend raved about? Why did they feel so great after using it and why didn't you notice anything? Or maybe you took a product for a while and felt good, but later you noticed it didn't do anything for you.

The truth of the matter is that there is NO one nutritional product that is right for everyone. If anyone ever tells you that everyone needs to take their product, turn and run away!

Everyone is a unique individual with unique nutritional needs. You need to feed your body what it needs. Over time, your body's needs will change. So if you find a product that makes you feel great, don't be surprised if someday you don't feel so good with that same product.

How do you find out what your body needs without trying every product on the market?
