In our previous episode, we delved into the realm of glucosamine and chondroitin, exploring their potential to enhance joint health in both humans and dogs. What we uncovered was a landscape of scanty evidence concerning their therapeutic advantages, with glucosamine emerging as particularly dubious.

Our spotlight now turns to collagen, as we examine the veracity behind its proclaimed health benefits. Is collagen truly the panacea it’s touted to be?

In this episode, I talk about Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) and how you can use it as a screening tool to gain a deeper insight into your dog’s health status and what might be driving any health problems.

HTMA is a non-invasive test that measures the levels of beneficial nutrients and toxic metals found in the hair. It can detect an excess or deficiency of nutrient minerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium and zinc. It can also identify over exposure to toxic metals such as arsenic, aluminium, mercury and lead. HTMA provides valuable information on existing health conditions. For example, minerals status can provide you with insight into the production of hormones, enzyme activity, energy production, digestive health, stress levels and much more. Further, it helps with early detection and prevention of conditions, as mineral imbalances are often seen before symptoms occur.

So tune-in to learn all about what HTMA is and how it might benefit your dog.
