The first mineralograms , already in use in America in the 70s, used  mass spectrometry technology , a technique in vogue in mineralogy of the time, also for the analysis of lunar rocks and metal analysis for the hulls of shuttles and aircraft military. It was then used as a technology also in medicine for the analysis of minerals from human hair or animal hair.

The hair, in fact, behaves like a sort of rock, layering all the toxins, minerals and metals that we expel during life. Thanks to a technology that can measure the coherence of metals in the hulls of a military aircraft, it is also possible to measure the stratification of minerals and metals in the human hair.

Today there are still laboratories that analyze the stratification process using these old technologies, but a  third generation  of BioTests has been developed for years that uses other methods for analyzing the  mineralogram .

The old mineralogram indicates a dose of metals and minerals contained  in the hair, where the body is expelling these elements. However, we must deduce what quantity is contained in the body, but no mineralogram says exactly this.

Understanding, through the old analysis of minerals, which toxic metals should be eliminated (because they are too high in the body) and which human minerals should be integrated (because they are too low), is not possible based on the analysis of the hair with the old technique, since the hair it only reports information relating to the expulsion of metals . So knowing that I have arsenic in my hair in an amount of 5 mg, does not give me information about the concentration of arsenic inside the body; I may have another 20 mg, or zero because I’ve already eliminated all traces from my body.

The  third generation of  Daphne BioMetaTests, on the other hand, analyzes human tissue taking into consideration its biofrequency, a concept recently used in  functional medicine , which is the basis of the new integrated techniques of  naturopathy and holistic  medicine  . Knowing if a metal “resonates” at a certain percentage in the body gives us a better indication of its presence or in any case of its damage inside the organs, compared to knowing what concentration it is present in the hair.
To give a practical example, it is as if we wanted to determine how much waste a factory has inside, analyzing only the contents of the external bins at the end of the day. Sure I can get an idea, but if the bins are full, maybe there won’t be any more waste in the factory. So if the hair is rich in mercury, perhaps the body will have expelled all the mercury it had before; if there is no cadmium in the hair, this does not mean that the rest of the body is free from cadmium. In short, the old mineralogram technology is very fascinating, but in the end it measures, in a scientifically flawless way, a portion of tissue from which we can hardly  deduce the true amount of metals or minerals in our body .

The new third generation technology patented by Daphne laboratories, while measuring biofrequency and not milligrams, would prove to be closer to reality also for the development of a  wellness protocol  for the elimination of toxic metals  and the correct  integration of the necessary minerals .
