What is a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis - MINERALOGRAM ? The tissue mineral analysis is a laboratory analysis made on a hair sample which measures the content of essential minerals for health and the main toxic minerals contained in our cells two to three months prior to the analysis. It gives an overall assessment of the person’s health and a projection on pathological tendencies. The sampled hair is obtained by cutting the first 2-3 centimetres of growth closest to the scalp at the occiput (the nape of the neck) or lateroparietal area (the temples) of the head. The mineralogram has become a reliable instrument for analysing the nutritional conditions of the body. By analysing the levels of important minerals like calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium, in particular the ratio of their values, it is now possible to calculate the speed of cellular oxidative processes. It allows you to calculate the levels of toxic minerals in the body deriving from the environment (such as food, air, water and exposure at work). This calculation allows Functional Point’s scientific staff to identify an effective and natural way of detoxifying the body.
