Just reading in dr wilson’s page and find this


“For the best accuracy, I can only recommend using Analytical Research Labs. A poor second choice is Trace Elements, Inc. They do not wash the hair, either, but their graph is difficult to read, their products are not as good, and their corrective programs are terrible. ”


Is he right? Maybe arl is better than tei?

Man sure the hair mineral sups have benifitted some peopel but they sure don’t do themselves any favors with how they market this stuff. It just screams quackery.

I know right. I know a lot of people this stuff would actually help, but it's incredibly hard to recommend because when you start looking into it it's easier to find Wilson talking about putting styrofoam packing peanuts in your vagina to enhance your downward energy than it is to find a good source for how and why this stuff can be beneficial.

Of course he is not right. He earns his bread with writing these programs. Why would he praise his rivals?

I think the problem with the image/marketing of hairtests is not the method. It is because of the companies around it who built a cult-like mentality/religion around it. On paper and in practical use I think it is an interesting tool - just like urine testing, blood testing and other measurements.

Remember I posted the video where an MMA fighter (TJ Dillashaw) talked about his coach putting him on hairtests. It seems it is being used by professionals but they use it without using big words like Dr. Wilson. They use it as a measurement tool and treat it as such.

Not to sidetrack too much (and Tubzy has patiently already answered this one, but I got conflicting answers from the TEI folks...)

If I had, say, just finished an R-Andro run, but was tempted to drop CD's protocol for TEI, how long would it be sensible to wait before shaving my head, regrowing, then sending a sample off? Should I even wait, and just send it now? Also, as I'm on hydrogen water, should I stop that for an amount of time before sending a sample also?

Stop hydrogen water and wait at least 1 month. Use nothing in this 1 month. No supplements.

I try to complete a cycle every three months and use hair from the same spot everytime. I usually shave my hair and let it grow for the last month of the cycle and send it in. I have been using hair from the nape of my neck and sideburns.

Admiral had a mix of pubic and scalp and also switched between ARL and TEI like I did. I think our best bet it to follow @Goose12 log he has been on for 8 months or so straight through with scalp hair only
Man, if this is the case, that sucks. I can’t use head hair, and now I’m worried that 6mos of work is going to go down the tubes.
