 FAQs

  • Hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA) is an analytical test which measures the mineral content of the hair. It is easy, painless, and can be done at the comfort of your home. The HTMA sample requires roughly 1 tsp of hair and must be cut as close to the scalp as possible. You then cut the hair sample so that it is only 1.5’’ long.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) concluded that using human hair testing may be more appropriate than blood and urine samples for evaluating trace minerals.
