Aaron,
        The professional that interpreted my tissue mineral analysis was Dr. David L.
Watts, author of TRACE ELEMENTS AND OTHER ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS subtitled
Clinical Application of Tissue Mineral Analysis.  From his book cover:
        "Dr. Watts has been involved in clinical nutrition for 20 years.  Over the
past 18 years his research has focused on the study of tissue mineral patterns
found in human hair.  Having reviewed over 200,000 tissue mineral profiles, he
has identified interrelationships between minerals, vitamins, and the neuro-
endoctrine system.  He has further classified vitamins, minerals, herbs,
foods, water, and drugs into specific categories according to their metabolic
effects.  His research has led to the development and recognition of
individual tissue mineral patterns associated with various disease trends,
metabolic types, and even emotional characteristics.
        Dr. Watts has written over 50 scientific publications and is invited to
lecture internationally.  He provides nutritional evaluations and
consultations to health care professionals worldwide, while serving as
Director of Research for Trace Elements, Inc., a federally licensed clinical
laboratory."
