How complete a mineral levels analysis for your dog cat or horse:

To collect a sample, follow these instructions

This test looks at nutrient levels in the body which gives us an approximation of your pets “reservoir” levels in the body of key minerals.

What can these results tell us? We can assess your pet’s digestive health, immune system function, thyroid, adrenal glands, levels of calming minerals and more. Identifying mild deficiencies or excesses early helps us get your pet feeling great before any serious illnesses develop from chronic imbalances.

This test also screens for levels of toxic metals in the body.

Minerals are the "spark plugs" of life. They are involved in almost all enzyme reactions within the body. These enzyme reactions are what keep us radiant, alive and at optimal health. Without proper mineral levels, these enzyme reactions become inefficient and eventually more seriously impaired. 

Who should get mineral nutrient testing?

• Dogs, Cats and Horses at 3-6mo of age

• All animals on an annual basis

• Every 3-6 months for animals with identified deficiencies that we are treating

What are the chances that my pet has a nutritional deficiency?

Most pets have mild deficiency or excess in the tissue levels of some nutrients. Even in healthy pets, we see that most patients test with some abnormalities in their nutrient levels. Clients are reporting wonderful improvement in how their animal friends feel once we improve these levels.

In a retrospective study of 564 dogs with clinical signs presented for hair testing over a 12 year period, 94% where found to have changes consistent with inflammation and chronic stress.

Many animals are born with mild nutritional deficiencies due to the diet, stress level, inflammation level and other overall health factors of their mother. Kibble diets, vaccination, weaning, leaving the nest to go to a new home, surgery (spay/neuter) adds stress to the body and can amplify low level deficiencies. Identifying and correcting these as early as possible greatly improves the chance of an excellent outcome.

This test uses fur/hair to evaluate the body levels. This allows us to get a better idea of what is in the body tissues (without taking a biopsy sample). Blood levels of most minerals are kept within a normal range by pulling minerals out or pushing minerals into the body tissues.

A trace mineral hair test is an invaluable screening tool that determines which vitamins, minerals, herbs and diet changes will be most beneficial for your pet. We recommend all pets be tested on an annual basis to keep your pet feeling their best for many years to come.
