On Tuesday September 14, IHN hosted a 1 hour webinar with Lisa Pitel-Killah. She asked, "Do you use hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA) in practice?" When analyzing HTMA you may think that if minerals are "within range" this is ideal; but there is more to the interpretation than just that! Lisa shares groundbreaking insights into the analysis and epidemic of Copper Toxicity that will change the way you interpret results and take your clinical recommendations to the next level.
