- Title
Hair Analysis.
- Abstract
The article focuses on hair analysis. Among orothodox health practitioners, hair analysis has a poor reputation. Physicians have problems with hair analysis interpretation. Hair mineral content can be affected by exposure to various substances such as shampoos, bleaches, and hair dyes. The level of certain minerals can be affected by the color, diameter, and rate of growth of an individual's hair, the season of the year, the geographic location, and the age and gender of the individual. Most commercial hair analysis laboratories have not validated their analytical techniques by checking them against standard reference materials.
