If you’ve been on the struggle bus with hair loss/shedding, you NEED to check your minerals!

Most women I see with hair loss have been told the same things: try biotin, it’s just stress, and your labs look normal.

But hair follicles are metabolically demanding. When minerals are depleted this shows up in hair health.

The minerals most commonly driving hair loss that almost never get tested (but we can test for them on the HTMA):
→ Magnesium
→ Copper
→ Zinc
→ Selenium
→ Potassium
→ Iron

And when thyroid conversion is impaired, your hair is shedding regardless of what your TSH says.

Chronic constipation isn’t a miralax deficiency. It’s a mineral imbalance!

I know because I dealt with chronic constipation for YEARS. Quite literally since I was a child. Nothing improved it until I did my very first HTMA test and addressed my minerals.

Here are some of the main findings with my constipated clients 👉🏼

Here’s what I find on the HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) of almost every postpartum woman who is struggling:

Elevated copper flooding the postpartum brain, directly disrupting domaine and norepinephrine metabolism. This is NOT a serotonin problem, this is a copper problem. Most women are prescribed an SSRI only for it to make their symptoms worse… this is why.

The calcium shell — a mineral pattern where high calcium walls off the emotions and creates numbness, disconnection, dissociation, and an inability to feel joy even when you know you should.

Low potassium which means thyroid hormone cannot activate at the cellular level. Functionally low thyroid can mean low serotonin production, low dopamine sensitivity, and a nervous system with no minerals left to function optimally.

Gut dysbiosis, because birth, antibiotics, stress, sleep deprivation, and blue light wreck the microbiome. Plus, your gut produces 90% of your serotonin.

Do I believe in the postpartum mental health crisis? Absolutely. But we have to recognize it for what it really is: a mineral and neurological crisis with a mental health presentation.

The HTMA test is a simple at-home hair sample. No needles, no lab visit. It is the first lab I run on all of my postpartum clients before anything else.

How are all of my oldest daughters doing?! 🙋🏼‍♀️

I see a common pattern in my clients who had a difficult childhood, who had to grow up fast, take on everyone else's emotions, and never got a chance to truly be themselves. I know because l was also her.

This isn't just a personality trait. This is a reflection of what years of chronic stress has done to not just your nervous system but your hormones!

The DUTCH test is one of my favorite functional labs to run on clients with the symptoms above. Because it finally explains what years of chronic stress did to your body, adaption, and how to actually start a plan that works for you, no guessing.
