Editorial Reviews

Review

Dr. Wilson clearly demonstrates his extensive knowledge and clinical expertise. I highly recommend this text for all clinicians. -- Benjamin Sucher, D.O.

Dr. Wilson's book is easy to follow and is a very valuable book for anyone interested in trace minerals. -- Dr. Abram Ber, MD

Mineral analysis is a non-invasive screening test that can provide a great amount of information inexpensively and rapidly about how one's body is responding to stress.

The mineral test can be used to predict and help prevent over 30 common health conditions. One can also use the test to learn about the adequacy of one's diet, one's stage of stress and oxidation or metabolic type.

Mineral analysis can help take the guesswork out of recommending foods and nutritional supplements. The procedure has wide application for children, adults, pregnant women, those with illnesses and those wishing to prevent illness and to optimize health.

Nutritional Balancing and Hair Mineral Analysis is an excellent introduction to the subject for practitioners and for the general public as well. -- From the publisher

This is the best book avalable about hair mineral analysis. It is the greatest book about my work. -- Dr. Paul C. Eck, tissue mineral analysis pioneer

I had a hair analysis done by Dr. Wilson and I also purchased this book. After years of trying to figure out what was wrong with me and why I was so tired, I finally found light at the end of the tunnel. The book helped to explain everything that the analysis showed - it described my symptoms exactly. It was absolutely amazing. I recommend this book, and the services of Dr. Wilson to everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very well researched book
Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2009
This book is must read if you are interested in health or nutrition. It explains in detail the role of each mineral in the body and what can deficiency or overload of a mineral do to your body. It also explains how these minerals interact and how to interpret a hair sample mineral analysis. It touches on many diseases or condition that your body may have a tendency towards and explains some theory behind the interpretation. Finally it touches on some very well researched health issues that is not related to mineral analysis but is good to know and use to achieve better health.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting read

Explains how to use hair mineral testing to asess thyroid and adrenal function. Some of the information is also available on his website.

This is a novel approach that fitted my already diagnosed low thyroid and adrenal output diagnoses. The dietary appraches recommended also suit me just about perfectly. The book was spot-on in many ways, for me at least.

I didn't know whether to be pleased that most of my ratios put me in the most severe 'at huge and imminent risk for cardiac events and cancer' - as it is always good to get very severely abnormal and scary test results when you are in fact, very scarily ill and ridiculously severely disabled - or scared.

(I'm housebound and 99% bedbound, and very restricted with speech and tasks of daily living, and have severe cardiac insufficiency, etc. as part of Myalgic Encephalomyelitis, or M.E.)

But either way, I appreciated having the information and would recommend this book to others with severe or chronic illness. This is a really interesting read and the book is well designed and organised. If possible, read it together with the author's brilliant book on saunas and lots of the articles on his website.

In his must-read article 'Deep Healing Versus Symptom Removal' Dr Lawrence Wilson writes,

"Deep healing is quite different from symptom removal. Symptom removal is the type of doctoring offered by the medical profession and by most holistic doctors as well. Symptoms are the focus, by and large, and the goal is to make them go away. The problem is that symptoms often point to deeper imbalances that are not usually not addressed.

Deep healing is a much more profound process. It has to do with restoring the body to its former state of health. This means restoring its energy production system, its oxidation rate, its minerals ratios and much more. Symptom removal occurs as a "side effect" of these programs.

Healing therefore usually takes longer and involves lifestyle changes as well. It is more work for both the client and the practitioner. Lifestyle, in fact, is always central and this is a good way to tell if your doctor is focused on symptoms or on deeper healing. In the long run, however, it saves time and lots of money, and may save your life as well."

In his excellent article 'Deep Healing Versus Symptom Removal' Dr Lawrence Wilson explains that symptomatic approaches are so popular because:

"1. They appear simple. This means they are largely superficial and easily understood by doctors and patients alike. Balancing methods are much more difficult to comprehend and to practice, as well.

2. Doctors, drug companies and hospitals love them. This is sadly the case because the patients never really get well. They always come back with the next symptom or problem, so it is good for business. Even the socialized medical systems of Europe, Canada and elsewhere continue this stupid and costly methods of drug medicine. Most holistic physicians are still recommending symptomatic treatments, in my estimation. Many are still interested in having the patient come back many times. Many feel they simply cannot stay in business if they truly healed people. Therefore, no matter what they profess, they are less interested in deeper balancing methods that actually heal the patient at deep levels. However, overall they are much better than conventional medical doctors I have met.

3. Symptomatic approaches ask very little of the patient in most cases. The person is allowed to keep eating junk food, skip adequate rest and sleep and ignore the problems in their lives. "

If you only read one article of Dr Wilson's make it this one!
