#1)
Part One - Hair Analysis and the New Nutrition
  Presented By Dr. Paul C. Eck and Dr. Lawrence Wilson

There is no doubt that nutrition and its relationship to the maintenance of health is getting
more attention than ever before in history. Facts and figures contained within Dr. Eck's
research provide the answers to the major questions asked by doctors and patients alike
and his methods and techniques have revolutionized the use of vitamin and mineral
supplementation for correcting metabolic disturbances. His studies have revealed how the
utilization of Hair Analysis can determine oxidation types through trace mineral patterns and
how, based upon these patterns, physiological and even emotional imbalances can be
corrected with proper diet and nutritional supplementation. These cassette tapes were
produced from the first of a two-part seminar series which was presented by the Eck

Toxic metal poisoning is one of the major causes of ill health today. The accumulation of
toxic metals contributes greatly to the causation of literally hundreds of diseases including
birth defects, learning disorders, immune system diseases, infections, mental illness,
diabetes, arthritis, heart disease and many other metabolic dysfunctions. This cassette tape
set, was presented by the Eck Institute in May, 1986, which explored, in detail, this
fascinating and important topic. It utilizes case histories to illustrate how heavy metals are
accumulated, how they affect our individual health and our society and how they can be
eliminated so as to restore optimum health.

  Presented By Dr. Paul C. Eck and Dr. Lawrence Wilson

Nutritional programs that rebuild and balance body chemistry offer a scientific way to
prevent major illness and achieve high-level health. This cassette tape set was presented by
the Eck Institute in May 1987 and shows how to take advantage of the latest biochemical
and nutritional research to achieve and maintain physical, mental, and emotional health. Dr.
Eck discusses how research derived from tissue mineral analysis can reveal disease trends
or tendencies and help guide the correction of problems such as; acute and chronic stress,
glucose intolerance, abnormal cellular, adrenal and thyroid gland activity and biochemically
oriented behavior disorders and learning disabilities. This tape program demonstrates how
inappropriate lifestyle and dietary patterns can cause imbalances and inefficiencies in
biochemical energy production, which can cause problems like excessively slow or fast
metabolic rates and how you can use tissue mineral analysis to correct these patterns and
improve your own and your clients' health.

Nutritional Approaches to Children's Illnesses and Immune System
Disorders

  Presented By Dr. Paul C. Eck and Dr. Lawrence Wilson

A serious concern today is the increase in hyperactive behavior, learning disorders, delayed
development, minimal brain dysfunction and other children's problems that have profound
effects upon a child's development. Fortunately, hair analysis research provides insights into
the causes and correction of these highly prevalent conditions. Another alarming trend is the
increase in immune system disorders including AIDS, candida albicans (yeast) infections,
chronic Epstein-Barr virus syndrome and other chronic infections. Causes and correction of
disorders of the immune system was also the topic of discussion at the 1988 Eck Institute
Seminar. Hair Analysis research has yielded important insights to enhance the success of

were presented to provide consultants with a full understanding of why these products are
recommended.

Cases of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Chronic Epstein-Barr Virus Syndrome and Burnout
are reviewed, along with tips regarding diet, special supplements, lifestyle and other
considerations to enhance the effectiveness of nutrition programs against these common
conditions.
