Clark Engelbert | Mineral Balancing Q & A

Clark Engelbert is the founder and CEO of Nutritional Analytics, a health consulting company that specializes in using hair tissue mineral analysis to set up mineral balancing healing programs for the purpose of heavy metal detoxification.  Clark has a background in nutritional sciences and biochemistry. He studied both disciplines at the University of Arizona and Boise State University, respectively.  Clark received his training in hair tissue mineral analysis and mineral balancing through the certification program that Dr. Lawrence Wilson offered through Westbrook University in West Virginia in 2018. From 2018 to 2022 he worked directly with Dr. Lawrence Wilson analyzing thousands of hair tests.

Understanding the interactions between minerals and metals is essential for proper calcium metabolism and overall health. Balancing the oxidation rate is key to optimizing the utilization and partitioning of minerals in the body. Supplementing calcium and magnesium together is important to maintain the proper ratio between these minerals. Iodine supplementation should be done cautiously, considering individual needs and potential interactions with other elements. Selenium is crucial for detoxifying heavy metals, but its dosage should be carefully monitored to avoid imbalances. Retesting and understanding mineral interactions over time cycles is important for assessing progress and adjusting supplementation. Mineral balancing is a complex process that involves the interacti
