Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) is a test that analyses a small sample of your hair to give insights into your body's mineral levels.

Your hair stores minerals, so by testing it, doctors can see if you have too much or too little of certain minerals like calcium, magnesium, zinc, and others. This info can help understand your overall health, identify imbalances, and guide adjustments in diet or supplements to improve your well-being.

HTMA can also detect heavy metals and toxins in the body.

Organic acids testing is a way to analyze urine to get insights into your body's metabolism and overall health. When your body breaks down food or performs other metabolic processes, it produces organic acids.

By measuring these acids in your urine, doctors can assess how well your body is functioning and identify any potential imbalances or deficiencies. This test can provide valuable information about nutrient absorption, energy production, detoxification pathways, and more. It's like a metabolic report card that helps pinpoint areas for improvement to support your overall well-being.

Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) occurs when there is an abnormal increase in the number or type of bacteria in the small intestine, which can lead to various digestive symptoms and nutrient malabsorption.

The SIBO breath test is a non-invasive diagnostic tool used to detect the presence of excessive bacteria in the small intestine.

The results of the breath test are interpreted based on the levels of hydrogen and methane gases detected in the breath samples.

Elevated levels of these gases at specific time points may indicate the presence of bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine.
