KAHU provides guided Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) for dogs and cats, not a stand-alone test. An HTMA report is data, not a treatment plan. Mineral levels must be interpreted together with ratios, metabolic patterns, symptoms, diet, medications, and health history. Acting on isolated high or low values can lead to inappropriate supplementation and move an animal farther from balance.

Yukie Hirose provides personalized interpretation and clinical nutrition guidance using the Life Extension Method developed by Dr. Ava Frick, DVM, combined with her own Cartographic Mineral Interpretation™ — a methodology she originated that deciphers minerals and other nutrients in conjunction with organ functions/metabolic processes, the body’s adaptive intelligence, together as one map of the whole individual. Yukie translates laboratory findings into an individualized, monitored wellness plan for each dog or cat.
