Didn't do the hair analysis and never saw anyone, but when I was ttc ds1 and had been for a LONGGG time I read their book on pre-conceptual care and it was so interesting.It said that people who have been on the pill can have too much copper in their systems and this can be balanced out with zinc supplements.Started taking them and concieved within a couple of months.
It makes so much sense. Are you thinking of going down that route?

Like Alexsmum I read their literature and think it is very sound stuff if you are ttcing and not succeeding without obvious cause, but didn't go for the hair analysis because you mustn't be using any colourants. Ahem.

Only if you also stand her a colour treatment of her choice afterwards...or maybe Mrs Anteater needs no such enhancements, the lucky thing

Anteater-I sent off for the info some years back,but never got around to having analysis done.

However,what Alexsmum said about the copper in your system reminded me that I did concieve after starting acupuncture & taking seaweed tablets that had zinc in them.
Good luck

I read this thread on Wednesday and haven't had time to add my experiences till now. A friend introduced me to Foresight 15 years ago. After following their programme she and her husband conceived, and had, a healthy and gorgeous boy. This was after at least 12 miscarriages and endless 'normal' investigations. I thought I should give it a go as I was trying to conceive through ADI. My twin boys are now 14...I met the founder of Foresight when they were about 3 and she said the Foresight conception rate for twins was above the national average (fraternal twins obviously) though their literature doesn't mention any of that! It all seems so very logical. You and your partner need to be in the best possible health to conceive and carry a healthy baby. Hair analysis is a proven method of testing the body for heavy metals, vitamin deficencies - all sorts. Go for it. Good luck. My twins are fantastic. Like most of the 'alternative' health practitioners I have come across they can be a bit dogmatic but the results speak for themselves.
