Your pet's hair is classified as a soft tissue of the body. Hair analysis is a soft tissue mineral biopsy. A biopsy is an analysis of a body tissue, in this case to detect mineral levels. Hair analysis provides a reading of the mineral deposition in the cells and interstitial spaces of the hair over a 2-3 month period. Hair analysis is used as a screening test.
Your cat or dogs hair makes an excellent biopsy material because:
Sampling is simple and non-invasive.
Hair is a stable biopsy material. It needs no special handling and remains viable for years.
Mineral levels in the hair about 10 times that of blood, making them easy to detect in the hair.
Advancements in technology have considered hair mineral analysis: cost effective, accurate, reliable.
Your pet's hair can help identify nutritional and biochemical imbalances:
Hair provides a unique cellular reading of the mineral levels.
The cells, not the blood or urine, are the major site of metabolic activity.
Hair analysis is one of the few ways to detect toxic metals.
Toxic metals concentrate in the soft tissues, not in the blood or urine.
Heavy metal toxicity is an important, but less known problem that is often ignored in medicine.
Hair analysis can show the amount of inflammatory stress that the pets’s body is experiencing.
Hair analysis can provide an assessment of your pets’s stage of inflammation, stress and oxidation rate.
Hair analysis is an indicator of glandular activity, liver/digestion indications, sugar and carbohydrate intolerance.
Hair analysis can indicate conditions such as anxiety, mood swings, and nervousness.
Hair analysis can provide energetic analysis of your pets’s body. Energy is important to the body when healing itself.
Hair analysis takes the guesswork out of recommending supplements.
Hair analysis helps monitor progress of your pet.
Changes in body chemistry for any reason are reflected on the hair test.

My dog suffered from kidney disfunction and was on several medications. She was quite lethargic due to the side effects of the prescriptions. We started her on the Canine Renal and Whole Body support along with a whole diet and the tests have come back showing a clean bill of health. The vets were pleasantly surprised!
