Back to Natural Health Dr. Robert Selig designs 100% natural therapeutic regimens customized around a patient's specific biochemistry.

Dr. Robert Selig, DC - Functional Medicine Practitioner and hair tissue mineral analysis expert - offers customized care plan packages to address chronic health issues affecting most of the population like mineral deficiency, fatigue, and copper toxicity. Blood tests do not provide enough information to properly address chronic health problems because they do not accurately measure deficiencies and toxicities at the root of all illness which is why we test our patients using serial hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMAs). Our mission is to identify, address, and manage chronic health problems in our patients using

Using HTMA helps us get to the root of chronic health problems in order to properly identify needs and address any deficiencies or toxicities. HTMA has been discovered to be the only test available that can accurately measure what is happening inside the cells, not just the blood. To properly address any issues, we give our patients the best nutritional medicine from around the world, and in conjunction, we employ time-tested natural healing methods to improve the efficiency and speed of the recovery process. Our approach has proven to significantly improve wellness, health, and vitality in adult and child patients without the use of expensive drugs and invasive medical procedures. Our goal is to help patients age gracefully and naturally—and avoiding unnecessary dangerous surgeries and future hospital visits. Dr. Selig explains to patients the CRITICAL importance of improving the inner gut terrain, following detoxification protocols, and enhancing the neuro-endocrine function by removing toxic metals in order to see improvement in overall mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. Patients receive invaluable natural health information to follow for the rest of their lives, and our most successful patients learn from Dr. Selig to create new natural healing habits tailored to their own lifestyle.

A hair tissue mineral analysis stands as the most revealing test available to understand human biochemistry.

It provides precise data on individual mineral levels, critical mineral ratios, and the burden of toxic metals.

The most fascinating and clinically actionable aspect it reveals are the distinct mineral patterns governing metabolism.

These patterns tell us if the body is stuck in a sympathetic dominant state, a high-alert metabolic posture.

When you are locked in sympathetic dominance, true detoxification becomes physiologically difficult and inefficient.

The primary therapeutic goal must be to support a shift into the parasympathetic state, where repair and elimination naturally occur.

We achieve this by using targeted nutrients to modulate key ratios, such as lowering elevated calcium to raise potassium.

This is why hair analysis is indispensable, as it allows us to construct a program that addresses the patient's unique strengths, weaknesses, toxic burdens, and dysfunctional mineral patterns simultaneously.

ATP is the universal biological currency that drives every process in the body.

Every nutrient you consume, whether protein, fat, or carbohydrate, is ultimately broken down to produce this essential energy molecule.

The carbohydrate pathway begins with glucose, which undergoes a series of transformations to become ATP.

This metabolic conversion requires approximately twenty-two distinct biochemical steps.

Twelve of those critical steps have an absolute requirement for the mineral magnesium.

Magnesium is not merely a participant in the creation of ATP.

The ATP molecule itself must have a magnesium ion bound to it to become biologically active.

Without this magnesium bond, the universal currency of energy remains inert and useless to the cell.

This reveals magnesium not as a simple supplement, but as the essential cofactor that activates the very fuel of life.

There exists a gene known as P53, the most researched gene in all of oncology.

Its nickname is the guardian of the genome, the apoptosis gene, and the definitive anti-cancer gene.

For this crucial gene to function, it must possess a structural element called a zinc finger.

The zinc finger allows the P53 protein to fold into its necessary three-dimensional shape, enabling it to read DNA and decide the fate of a cell.

This function includes initiating programmed cell death, repairing genetic damage, or regulating the cell cycle to prevent malignancy.

Without adequate zinc, you lose the integrity of that zinc finger, and the guardian of the genome is rendered powerless.

This mechanism was elucidated through research at the University of New Mexico in collaboration with the Navajo Nation.

Scientists sought to understand why Native American populations exhibited such high rates of cancer and other severe diseases.

The historical context provided the clue, as significant uranium mining for weapons occurred on their lands in the mid-20th century.

The mining process unearthed and mobilized a burden of toxic metals including arsenic, lead, and mercury into the environment.

Research confirmed these toxic metals directly displace the essential zinc from the P53 protein's zinc finger.

This displacement silences the body's primary anti-cancer defense system, resulting in the tragically high cancer incidence observed.

The case provides a profound model of how environmental toxicity creates disease by sabotaging our most fundamental mineral-dependent genetic safeguards.

Healing does not require perfection, but it does demand consistency, because biology only responds to repeated signals applied over time.

Detoxification works when the body is given the same clear instructions day after day, even when life interrupts and ex*****on is not flawless.

This is why consistency, not intensity, becomes the true catalyst that converts effort into measurable biological change.

Through hair tissue mineral analysis, we can objectively observe this process unfolding as toxic metals are gradually mobilized from deep tissue storage.

With enough time and consistency, mercury begins to release, followed by the significant and often delayed dump of lead from the body.

Lead is a uniquely stubborn metal that embeds itself in bone and connective tissue, where it can remain for decades if the mineral system is not properly supported.

This long residence mirrors the Saturn principle, a force associated with structure, time, and limitation, rather than speed or immediate resolution.

Saturn is not inherently destructive, but when its metallic imprint accumulates unchecked, it expresses itself as stagnation, aging, and systemic slowdown.

True healing respects this principle by working patiently, intelligently, and consistently to restore mineral order and safely release what no longer belongs.

The healing journey is therefore not a chase for flawlessness, but a disciplined return to structure, rhythm, and biological integrity.

The Simpsons aired a skit that stands as a modern prophecy, depicting a world where zinc has vanished.

In that scenario, the battery goes dead, the telephone goes silent, and the gun fails to fire.

These three symbols translate with precise accuracy into human physiology when zinc becomes deficient.

The dead battery mirrors the lost spark of life, evidenced by a fifty percent decline in s***m count over five decades.

The silent telephone signifies the breakdown in cellular communication, as zinc is required to activate neurological pathways and hormonal signaling.

The useless gun depicts a disarmed immune system, where a lack of zinc paralyzes the white blood cells meant for defense.

Zinc acts as the guardian of every bodily fluid, protecting the cerebrospinal, synovial, and seminal waters that sustain function.

This cartoon was not merely comedy but a diagnostic warning of a coming biological collapse.

We are now living inside the reality it foretold.

Silver has always represented the lunar current, the feminine intelligence that governs rhythm, receptivity, and regeneration within the human system.

When the silver cord is severed symbolically and biologically, the body loses its natural dialogue with balance, intuition, and emotional coherence.

This severance mirrors a broader historical pattern where feminine energy is intentionally cut away to sustain a dominant, solar, patriarchal control structure.

Gold without silver creates polarity without harmony, and the nervous system reflects this imbalance as chronic stress, inflammation, and emotional dysregulation.

The birthing process reveals this fracture immediately when the umbilical cord is cut prematurely, removing stem cells and biological intelligence meant to complete early immune programming.

Silver nitrate placed in the eyes further reinforces this energetic interruption at the very threshold of life.

Synthetic oxytocin then replaces the moon governed bonding chemistry with a forced signal that bypasses natural emotional imprinting.

The pineal and posterior pituitary operate under lunar governance, and interference here disrupts love, trust, and nervous system regulation at the root.

This is not random intervention but a sophisticated energetic dismantling that separates humanity from its stabilizing feminine current.

Restoration begins when gold and silver return to rightful balance within the body and within collective consciousness.
