Food allergy
A small amount of hair is taken for this test, which is then sent to New Zealand for analysis. It is not only excellent way of identifying masked (hidden) allergens, but has the advantage of also being very child friendly when it comes to taking the test sample.
Masked allergens are often foods, but may also include other subtances such as washing powders, chemicals or fumes. Masked allergens don't evoke an anaphylactic response, but are implicated in many health issues - physical, mental and emotional - and can hold us back from enjoying the best possible level of wellbeing or healing.
Toxic Metal and Nutritional Elements Testing –
This proven test, which assays the mineral composition of the hair, is an effective way of identifying the long-term effects of diet, environment, stress and toxic metal exposure.
For women planning a pregnancy, it is crucial that their nutritional mineral profile is healthy and that they don’t have worrying levels of any toxic metals. For example, mercury, which has a detrimental effect upon our central nervous systems, is known to pass through the placental barrier to the developing baby.
Jennifer also recommends this test for those who have lived for some time in polluted environments, and where standard medical tests fail to identify any usual cause for health problems.
Depending upon the results, treatment involves nutritional and supplemental regimes to rectify any problems.
