About GetTested's Hair Mineral Analysis
Hair Mineral Analysis is an advanced screening method providing deep insights into your body's mineral balance and exposure to heavy metals. Firstly, this test measures levels of essential minerals and trace minerals. It also identifies potentially harmful heavy metals and toxic substances in the body. Trace minerals are essential for the body in small amounts but can be toxic in larger doses. Even in small amounts, heavy metals and other toxic substances can be harmful and require careful monitoring.
By analyzing a small piece of hair, or nails for those lacking sufficient hair, the test offers a non-invasive method to assess your nutritional status and toxic exposures. For those without head hair, using other body hair is also acceptable.
Benefits of Hair Mineral Analysis
- Non-Invasive and Simple: Requires only a small amount of hair or nails, making it a painless and straightforward process.
- Long-Term Exposure Indicator: Hair and nails store information about your body's chemical balance over months, offering a more comprehensive view than blood tests that reflect the current state.
- ISO-Certified Lab: Analyses are performed at an accredited and ISO-certified laboratory, ensuring the highest standard of precision and reliability in the results.

We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in the UK. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.
