All hair testing laboratories in America are licensed and supposedly
checked by the government.
However, we check the accuracy of the hair tests that we receive from a
number of labs and most hair mineral testing is inaccurate. This is a serious problem because
development programs require accurate hair mineral tests.
Faulty inspections.
Perhaps the way the national government inspects the laboratories makes
it possible for them to pass the inspection and still do inferior lab work, and
this may be intentional. Another
possibility is that the licensing agency, called CLIA in the USA, is corrupt.
Reasons
for inaccuracy. One reason for inaccurate testing is
that most laboratories wash the hair at the laboratory before testing the
hair. This washes out some of the
minerals in the hair in an erratic manner.
The laboratories claim they need to wash the hair because the hair is dirty.
However, we find it just ruins the test and that most hair samples are
not dirty.
Some labs wash the hair with just water, while others use detergents, chelators or solvents. As a result, the numbers that the labs report
often vary somewhat from lab to lab.
We believe this is planned in order to discredit hair mineral testing. This test reveals so much about toxic
metals and nutrient mineral deficiencies – much more than any blood
tests, in our experience – that the Rogues who
control both the medical and naturopathic professions do not want this type of
testing.
Some labs also appear to do sloppy laboratory work.
CONSEQUENCES OF INACCURATE TESTING
Besides making people question the accuracy of hair testing and making
it easy for naysayers to publish articles disparaging hair mineral testing, other
consequences of inaccurate testing are:
- False positive results. These
alarm and frighten people. Such
results may also lead to unnecessary medical interventions such as chelation therapy, which we find to be harmful.
- False negative results. These
give people false confidence. They
say, ÒMy test was normalÓ, when really it was not.
In fact, this could have lethal consequences. For example, a properly performed hair
test can reveal an impending heart attack or stroke if a person has a Step-Up Pattern. This is a great benefit of this test.
An inaccurate hair mineral test may not reveal this or other serious
illness patterns such as cancer indicators. (One cannot diagnose cancer from a hair test, but the test has
markers that are associated with the presence of cancer.)
- Healing and development programs
based upon the mineral test results are less effective, may not work at all, or
could even make health worse. This causes some people to discredit
development science, which depends upon accurate hair mineral testing.
- A waste of time and money. The
test itself is a waste of money.
Consulting doctors, buying supplements and following programs based on
bad testing then wastes more time and money.
WHAT TO DO ABOUT THIS PROBLEM
At this time, we can only recommend Analytical Research Labs for hair
mineral testing. Their accuracy is
significantly better than that of any other laboratory that we have found
anywhere in the world. We suggest
avoiding any practitioner who uses a different hair testing
laboratory.
Among those who use Analytical Research Labs, we only suggest practitioners
listed at this page. Others are usually copycats who set up the
healing programs incorrectly. A
few of our newer Helpers are not yet listed on this page and you can send us an
email and we will let you know if a Helper is approved.
