Despite being a niche topic of interest in the realm of naturopathy, there is much knowledge to be learned from even just a single strand of hair such as a person’s metabolic rate, current stage of stress, immune system health, and adrenal & thyroid glandular activity. Testing hair samples can also dig up accurate information on carbohydrate tolerance, energy levels, and tendencies for over 30 illnesses even years before they start manifesting and more.
