Have you heard about mineral testing your hair? HTMA, hair tissue mineral analysis, is a functional assessment to provide meaningful information on metabolic, hormone, and nervous system regulation. In this episode, Ali interviews guest dietitian and owner of Trace Elements, Kaely McDevitt to learn more about this lab and the role of mineral imbalance on whole body health.

Kaely digs into the impact of minerals in metabolic, hormone, and neurological health. She discusses how and why minerals get depleted and root cause approaches for repletion. We discuss our favorite mineral infusions, food-as-medicine, and supplement sources.
