Mineral Check (Poor Digestion, Illness, Headaches)

Special Info

There are no special diet restrictions for the MineralCheck health screen. However, MineralCheck cannot be performed on hair that has been permed, dyed or bleached in the past two months. Also, shampoos with dyes, colorings or special chemicals must be discontinued for three days prior to cutting hair sample. We recommend using Johnson & Johnson baby shampoo three days before collecting sample. Your hair must be dry when collecting the sample.

Care should be used in the evaluation of MineralCheck elemental analysis results. Hair treatments or other external contaminants may affect reported levels of an element. The laboratory washing procedure will remove those elements which are soluble, but some treatments make a permanent bond to the hair and cannot be removed. These contaminants may increase some element levels.

If the hair is short, stainless steel thinning shears may be used.

MINERALS AND TOXINS EFFECT YOU IN MANY WAYS

Minerals and toxins are found everywhere in your life. From the food you eat to the air you breathe to the water you drink, these elements play a major role in nearly every facet of your life. And because we're all different from one another, each of us has our own individual sensitivities to different minerals and toxins. Having proper levels of these minerals and toxins is vital for your overall health and well-being. MineralCheck by BodyBalance assesses your body's levels of the following 11 minerals and 9 toxins:

MINERALS: Calcium, Chromium, Cobalt, Copper, Iodine, Magnesium, Manganese, Selenium, Strontium, Sulfur, Zinc

TOXINS: Aluminum, Antimony, Arsenic, Bismuth, Cadmium, Lead, Mercury, Nickel, Tin

SOME THINGS YOU OUGHT TO KNOW ABOUT SPECIFIC MINERALS AND TOXINS...

Calcium, besides being an important factor in bone development and maintenance, is also vital to heart and muscle function, and nerve conductivity. Calcium can be found in dark green leafy vegetables, dairy products, and canned salmon and sardines.

Zinc is influential in sexual function, immune system, hair loss, tissue aging and digestive function. Dietary sources of zinc include: meats, nuts, seeds, leafy and root vegetables, and crustaceans.

Magnesium tends to affect cardiovascular function, high blood pressure, and areas of mental health--depression, anxiety, decreased learning ability, and poor memory. Magnesium is found in oatmeal, buckwheat, chocolate, whole grains, and dark green leafy vegetables.

Lead attaches to blood and is often deposited in bones, the brain, adrenal and thyroid glands, and the liver. The most common toxin, lead can be found in water, paint, cigarettes, cosmetics, some pesticides, and foods such as meats, garden fruits, and grains.

Nickel can also be found in beans, nuts, grains, and many fruits and vegetables. Nickel is contained in car exhaust, cigarette smoke, and industrial waste and can cause nausea and headaches, as well as increasing the risk of lung, nasal, and laryngeal cancers.

Excessive exposure to mercury can cause headaches, excitability, poor mental concentration, fatigue, and insomnia. Mercury can be found in dental fillings, shellfish, large fish, paints, tattoo dyes, ceramics, and electrical relays.

These are just a few descriptions of how minerals and toxins can affect your health and the way that you live. Making sure your body has the proper levels of minerals and low, harmless levels of toxins can really make a difference in your health. MineralCheck can help you make that difference.

WHAT WE CAN DO...

MineralCheck is a safe, easy-to-use, and reliable health screen that uses a small hair sample to measure your mineral and toxin levels. Hair samples show the long-term accumulation of minerals and toxins in your system. Hair develops out of your bloodstream where minerals and toxins are found. This non-invasive and inexpensive health screen provides you with the accuracy of a laboratory analysis without leaving the comfort of your own home. When you order your health screen, we'll send you a complete kit. You collect the required hair sample and send it back to us in the prepaid return mailer provided. Within 7-10 working days of receiving your sample, we'll send your results to you.

WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOURSELF...

With minerals and toxins all around us, the effect that they can have on our bodies is truly limitless. Monitoring our body's accumulations of minerals and toxins is vital to optimal health. With the information you'll receive from your MineralCheck health screen, you'll know how your mineral and toxin levels compare with safe, normal levels and what those levels mean for you and your health. If your results show that your levels are not properly balanced, you can then work with your health care provider to develop a safe and productive plan for getting your levels to their proper balance. The goal of MineralCheck is to provide you with valuable information you can use to get the proper balance of minerals and toxins in your body for optimal health, information that puts you in control.
