increasingly important tool in the diagnosis of chronic illness. The
Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis of the hair can provide the healthcare
provider with important insight into treatment strategies for
conditions ranging from depression and behavior disorders to
cardiovascular and neurological illnesses. |
