Analyzing TWO HTMA Tests LIVE w/ Kim Heintz, FDN-P
Thursday Jan 12, 2023
Thursday Jan 12, 2023
Despite the fact that the HTMA test is one of the older tests on the market, in recent times, it seems to only be getting more and more popular! Its relatively cheap cost mixed with its ability to provide unique insights into one's health has made it a go-to for many functional practitioners.
In today's episode of The Health Detective Podcast, we are interviewing Kim Heintz, FDN-P, and learning about how she utilizes this test in her practice. In addition, we are also going over TWO different test results from her actual clients. This is a HIGHLY educational episode, so it might be one that you want to listen to when you have a notebook handy.
The interview was conducted in such a way that audio-only listeners can still benefit from it, but if you have the time, you can also sit down and watch the interview on our YouTube page. There, you are able to follow along with Kim and Detective Ev as they go through the test results and look at each and every marker.
