TEI Profile 1, Trace Elements Inc.
The TEI Profile 1 is a 2-page graphical report that provides an economical means to monitor your current nutritional and toxic element status.. This analysis is best for nutritionist or individuals with an understanding of hair analysis. This analysis provides an easy means to monitor your dietary foods, supplements and detox programs.
Our TEI Profile 1 hair analysis includes:
- 2-page graphic results of 35 (Boron is $12.00 extra) nutritional and toxic elements
- Current metabolic rate
- Significant mineral ratios
- Toxic/Nutritional element ratios
Note: Tests are not available to New York residents. For accuracy, we prefer untreated scalp hair. Your lab results are sent to you by password-protected email.
Approximate Turnaround Time: 14-21 days.
Commonly tested elements:
Nutritional Elements: These elements have been well defined and are considered “essential” for many metabolic and biological functions. These elements include Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium, Potassium, Copper, Zinc, Phosphorus, Iron, Manganese, Chromium, Selenium, Cobalt, Molybdenum, Sulfur, and Boron (at additional charge).
Toxic Elements: These elements are also referred to as “heavy metals” and are well-known to interfere with biochemical and metabolic functions. These elements include Uranium, Arsenic, Beryllium, Mercury, Cadmium, Lead, Aluminum, and Antimony (at additional charge – call).
Significant Ratios: These are important nutrient ratios that studies show are required for normal biological functions and metabolic activity. These ratios include Calcium/Phosphorous, Sodium/Potassium, Calcium/Potassium, Zinc/Copper, Sodium/Magnesium, Calcium/Magnesium, Iron/Copper
Additional Elements: These elements are considered as “possibly” essential and are currently under further studies to better define their requirements and amounts needed. These elements include Germanium, Barium, Bismuth, Rubidium, Lithium, Nickel, Platinum, Thallium, Vanadium, Strontium, Tin, Titanium, Tungsten, and Zirconium.
Nutritional/Toxic Element Ratios: Research has shown that toxic minerals can also produce an antagonistic effect on various essential minerals eventually leading to disturbances in their metabolic utilization. These ratios include Calcium/Lead, Iron/Lead, Iron/Mercury, Selenium/Mercury, Zinc/Cadmium, Zinc/Mercury, Sulfur/Mercury, Sulfur/Cadmium, and Sulfur/Lead.
