WATCH ON YOUTUBE HERE. Have you ever looked at your HTMA results and thought:
"Okay... but what does any of this actually mean?"
If so, today's episode is for you.
I'm joined by women's health dietitian and HTMA expert Amanda Montalvo for a deep dive into one of our favorite parts of the Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis test: significant ratios.
Inside Nourished Fertility, HTMAs have completely transformed how we support women with period loss, fertility struggles, thyroid symptoms, and hormone imbalances. These tests allow us to see deeper than standard blood work and understand how stress, metabolism, nervous system function, thyroid health, and mineral status are impacting your fertility journey.
In this conversation, Amanda breaks down exactly what significant ratios are, why they matter, and how they help us understand what's happening behind symptoms like:
- Missing or irregular periods
- Fertility challenges
- Low energy and burnout
- Thyroid symptoms
- Blood sugar instability
- Anxiety and overwhelm
- Difficulty recovering from stress
We also discuss why hormone imbalances are often the last thing to show up in the body—and why minerals may be the missing piece you've been overlooking.
If you've completed an HTMA, are considering one, or simply want a better understanding of how minerals impact fertility, this episode is a must-listen.
