Why HTMA is the Key to Better Health
Unlike blood tests that only show short-term fluctuations, HTMA provides a long-term record of mineral levels and toxin accumulation. This allows for a more accurate and holistic assessment of your metabolic health to support energy levels, hormone balance, detoxification, and more.
🔬 HTMA can detect imbalances linked to:
-
Chronic fatigue & brain fog
-
Anxiety, depression & mood swings
-
Hormonal imbalances, thyroid dysfunction & infertility
-
Heavy metal toxicity & detox challenges
-
Digestive issues & gut health concerns
-
Insomnia & stress-related disorders
-
Weight loss resistance & metabolic issues
HTMA helps uncover hidden imbalances that standard blood tests may miss, guiding personalized nutrition, detoxification, and supplementation strategies for long-term wellness.

What is Tested
What Does an Analytical Research Labs (ARL) HTMA Test For?
Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) through Analytical Research Labs (ARL) is a powerful tool for identifying mineral imbalances and toxic heavy metal exposure that may impact energy, metabolism, digestion, immune function, and overall well-being. Using a small hair sample, ARL’s HTMA provides a highly accurate, in-depth analysis of your body’s biochemistry, helping you take targeted steps toward better health, balanced minerals, and optimized nutrition.
Nutritional & Toxic Elements Tested
-
Essential Minerals: Calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, iron, copper, manganese, zinc, phosphorus, chromium, selenium – crucial for energy production, stress resilience, and metabolic health.
-
Toxic Heavy Metals: Lead, mercury, arsenic, aluminum, cadmium, nickel – linked to fatigue, brain fog, immune suppression, and hormonal imbalances.
-
Additional Trace Elements: Lithium, cobalt, molybdenum, boron – support enzyme function, neurotransmitter balance, and cellular health.
Metabolic & Health Insights from HTMA
HTMA reveals more than just mineral levels—it provides deep insights into how your body functions at a cellular level:
-
Stage of Stress: Identifies whether your body is in a healthy, high-energy state or experiencing burnout and depletion.
-
Metabolic Type & Oxidation Rate: Determines if you are a fast or slow oxidizer, influencing energy levels and dietary needs.
-
Adrenal & Thyroid Function: Assesses stress response, hormone balance, and overall energy production.
-
Sugar & Carbohydrate Tolerance: Helps pinpoint blood sugar imbalances and metabolic efficiency.
-
Protein Synthesis & Digestion: Indicates how well your body breaks down and utilizes proteins for muscle repair, enzyme production, and immune support.
-
Nervous System Balance: Shows whether you are in a fight-or-flight (sympathetic) or relaxed (parasympathetic) state.
-
Immune System Activity: Reflects mineral imbalances that may weaken immune defenses or contribute to chronic inflammation.
-
Liver & Kidney Stress: Reveals detoxification efficiency and organ function.
-
Cellular Permeability & Inflammation: Highlights cell membrane function and inflammatory response.
-
Heavy Metal Detox Status: Assesses whether your body is effectively eliminating toxic metals or struggling with retention.
Personalized Nutrition & Supplement Plan
Your HTMA results include a customized nutrition and supplement plan designed to rebalance minerals, support detoxification, and improve overall health.
Key Mineral Ratios & Their Impact
HTMA goes beyond individual mineral levels to analyze critical mineral ratios that influence essential body functions:
-
Calcium/Magnesium (Ca/Mg) – Regulates blood sugar balance, muscle function, and emotional well-being.
-
Sodium/Potassium (Na/K) – A key marker of adrenal health, stress resilience, and inflammation control.
-
Calcium/Potassium (Ca/K) – Strongly linked to thyroid function, metabolic rate, and energy levels.
-
Sodium/Magnesium (Na/Mg) – Reflects adrenal efficiency and metabolic function.
-
Zinc/Copper (Zn/Cu) – Essential for immune response, mood stability, and hormone regulation.
-
Calcium/Phosphorus (Ca/P) – Indicates whether your nervous system is overactive (stress mode) or balanced (recovery mode).
Gain Deeper Health Insights with HTMA
With just a simple hair sample, HTMA provides a detailed analysis of your body’s mineral blueprint, helping you take proactive steps toward better energy, metabolism, and long-term wellness.
FAQ
What is a HTMA Test?
An HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) test measures mineral content and toxic metal exposure through a hair sample. Unlike blood and urine tests, which reflect recent or short-term nutrient and toxin levels, HTMA offers insights into longer-term mineral storage and metabolic trends, providing a unique view into chronic imbalances and exposure. The analysis can highlight deficiencies, excesses, and trends in metabolic health.
How long does it take to get results?
Typically, results are available within 7-10 days after the sample is received by the lab.
Where to Send Hair Samples for HTMA Testing?
After receiving the necessary guidelines and lab forms via email, you should send your hair sample directly to the following address:
ARL Laboratories, Inc.
2225 W. Alice Avenue
P.O. Box 37964
Phoenix, AZ 85021
USA
How Much Hair Is Needed for HTMA Testing?
To perform an HTMA test, you need about 1 to 1.5 inches of hair cut closest to the scalp, as that hair provides the most recent and relevant mineral activity for accurate testing. You will need to collect a sample that weighs approximately 125 milligrams, which is roughly a tablespoon of hair. To avoid bald spots when taking hair samples for HTMA testing, collect samples from multiple areas of the head.
Can I still do an HTMA test if my hair is colored, bleached, or permed?
Yes, you can still do an HTMA test if your hair is colored, bleached, or permed. However, it’s recommended to wait at least 4 weeks after any chemical treatment before collecting your sample to ensure accurate results. You can sample newly grown hair near the scalp for testing.
David Galland –
Receiving my hair tissue mineral analysis report was eye-opening. It offered clear insights into my mineral levels and their impact on my health, along with personalized recommendations for improvement. The report was detailed yet easy to understand, and it provided actionable steps that I’m already implementing. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to better understand and improve their health.
Iswarya (verified owner) –
The hair mineral test analysis and expert analysis shared lots of insights into how badly my body was imbalanced nutritionally. I now know which vitamins I lack and other minerals that I need to supplement!
Kenneth (verified owner) –
As an engineer, I believe it’s important to use accurate lab results for feedback when choosing one’s diet, exercise, and lifestyle. The hair tissue mineral analysis offers that feedback and seems to do so at a level of resolution that is difficult to attain through serum analyses, especially when used alone. I’m so thankful these services are available at a reasonable price point and at such a level of convenience!
