As the body begins to balance its chemistry, it will get well in the reverse order of the way it became ill. This is called retracing. As chemical patterns retrace, prior illnesses may briefly repeat themselves. Emotions from past experiences are released during the retracing process. Retracing episodes are not side effects. They are metabolic corrections necessary for complete healing. Toxic metals released by the tissues, can cause a wide variety of reactions, such as emotional outbursts, skin rashes, headaches, and fatigue.
The time it takes to balance one’s body chemistry depends on the degree of imbalance that exists, genetics, and how well the person follows a good program. It could take anywhere from several months to several years.
HAIR ANALYSIS FOR NUTRITIONAL PHYSIOLOGY
Since Nutritional physiology takes place at the cellular level (i.e. not within blood or urine), a hair tissue analysis provides the best information about cellular activity. It is also the least invasive and most cost-effective method of long-term tissue analysis.
What the body cells are assimilating is of great importance. Heavy metal toxicity, chronic deficiencies, thyroid and adrenal function, as well as the various stages of stress and metabolic imbalances can also be determined with hair analysis. Blood tests are valuable to determine cholesterol, haemoglobin levels, and other parameters. However, along with kinesiology and electro diagnosis, they can fluctuate from hour to hour. They are also incapable of providing the same information as hair analysis.
Hair analysis, which has been around for over 43 years, provides a long-term metabolic blueprint and is used in every industrial and university chemistry lab. It is one of the few methods approved by the Environmental Protection Agency for detecting toxic metals in the body.
Computer-controlled instruments make excellent hair analysis reliability possible. Some labs and procedures are better than others. Analytical Research Lab, a pioneer in this industry, is one of the most respected and experienced leaders in this field. They use the most advanced and sophisticated instrumentation available (Perkin Elmer Elmer 9000 ICP Mass Spectrometer) which is extremely accurate. ARL is also one of only two labs that does not wash the hair at the laboratory. Washing the hair has been shown to wash out the water- soluble elements. A hair mineral analysis can be obtained through a nutritionist or health practitioner who works with a lab.
