So if you have your report, you will want to turn to that page and have it in front of you while we do this video.  There is a LOT of information on just this one page, so you will probably want to refer to our detailed blog post on this same subject, which will clearly outline each section and what it means. The page we’re reviewing today looks like this, and it’s usually page 5 in your report. and it will highlight areas of concern in different colors and give you a score at the end of the row with a total at the bottom.  We will discuss what those scores mean as we review this page.

At the beginning of 2023, we shared that the first tip of each month we would go into more detail about each page of the hair analysis to help those of you that have your report be able to understand it better.  The beauty of hair analysis is that it can catch potential health problems early, sometimes even before you have signs or symptoms of an issue. You can learn exactly ‘what’s going on in there,’ then figure out what to do. A hair analysis report generates 36 pages of amazing information for you about your health! This week, we’re talking about System Support Energetic Indicators, usually on page 4 in your report. If you have your report, you will want to turn to that page and have it in front of you while we do this video.  The page we’re reviewing today looks like this.  It has a circle with 1-4 systems in green, which are areas of concern.  There is a lot of information on just this one page, so you will probably want to refer to our detailed blog post on this same subject, which will clearly outline each section and what it means.

We often get asked why we started doing hair analysis at More Than Healthy.  As I’ve spent the last few years coaching individuals on how to overcome their health challenges, there’s been one area that can take the longest for us to solve: it was becoming difficult to recommend the right vitamins and minerals when there aren’t always symptoms that tell you what’s going on in there, And most blood work isn’t thorough enough to tell me what their body is deficient in.

We’ve been working hard on improving David's health for six years.  Removing sugar, gluten, and dairy was challenging, and we were seeing great results.  He had bloodwork done at least twice a year and watched all his numbers continue to improve.  But he still had a leaky gut.  It wasn’t until he did a hair analysis that we discovered he had a parasite.  We don’t know where he picked it up, but the epigenetics showed it was there.  Now, so many things make more sense.  He still lacked some vitamins and minerals even though he was eating the foods and taking supplements. Until he got rid of the parasite, his body couldn't assimilate all the vitamins and minerals from my food.  No doctor or bloodwork in six years ever told him that.  None ever looked for it, but we need to look for it in today's environment. We’re getting parasites from water and foods we digest.  Most times, our bodies can handle it, but when it can’t, we need some help.
