KEY TAKEAWAYS

Take a quantitative approach, it’s better to test to know what you need
Hair can be tested for mineral deficiency, heavy metal toxicity, thyroid, adrenal and hormones
Certain ratios give insight into your testosterone and oestrogen balance
By the time a deficiency shows up in the blood, it could have been seen years earlier in the hair
Having knowledge sooner could make a difference in taking action 
The most important aspects of the building blocks of hormones are elemental minerals
Detoxing without knowing what toxic elements you need to detox is not a sophisticated approach
When you have a mineral deficiency you accumulate toxic metals more quickly
If your adrenals don’t have the nutrients they need you won’t be able to mobilise the toxins enough to remove them
Supplementing with zinc all the time can mean the individual becomes very analytical, zinc and iron are very masculine elements
Copper is a creative element and can lead to you starting projects and not completing them
All the elements work together and it’s the balance and relationship with each other

 
BEST MOMENTS
‘Most of us don’t speak the language of the body really well’
‘If you are having anything in your body that you don’t like we can help with that’
‘This process is really powerful over time, to move and match the speed of the body to get nutrients in and detox’  
‘Everything is elemental’
