Rick Fischer C.H.H.C, h.T.M.A.P.

FOUNDER, INTEGRATIVE HEALTH COACHING

Rick Fischer is one of the world's foremost experts on the epidemic of copper toxicity, in addition to being a leading educator in the field of mineral-based health and nutrition, and a highly sought-after HTMA practitioner.  As one of the industry's most experienced experts, Rick has served as the personal HTMA mentor behind hundreds of today's practitioners. Equally important, his work has been instrumental in the increased adoption of HTMA, while his teachings have created a movement in the greater adoption of mineral-based health and nutrition in general.

 

Rick's thousands of hours of research and years of volunteer time led to the creation in 2014 of www.coppertoxic.com which, together with his numerous other education and support resources and advocacy work, has increased global awareness and has served as a primary educational resource for countless patients, practitioners and health writers who today are now speaking about and addressing copper toxicity.

 

In clinical practice, Rick has provided HTMA consultation to thousands of clients over the years, including to world champion athletes, UFC fighters, royalty, Hollywood directors, numerous medical professionals, and countless everyday individuals.

 

Rick's ground-breaking work in advancing mineral-based health education is showcased through the Mineral Mastery program.  This course, developed and taught by Rick, has served as the primary mineral-based health training received today by thousands of health professionals, with a ripple effect that now spans wide across the industries of HTMA and wellness.

 

Rick's work on copper toxicity, HTMA, Vitamin D, and mineral-based health is widely referenced by countless practitioners/writers in the field.  Rick is frequently hired to teach HTMA principals and mineral-based health concepts to various practitioners, including many Functional Diagnostic Nutritionists, Functional Medicine Doctors, Osteopaths, Naturopaths, and other HTMA Practitioners. 

"After witnessing the heartbreaking effects of copper toxicity in a loved one, I've since dedicated my life and work to being a voice for change; bringing increased support to the millions affected by the silent copper toxicity epidemic, improving industry standards and integrity within the field of HTMA, providing numerous support resources to empower the public with preventative health and connecting to the dots to existing symptoms and, most importantly, transforming the health & nutrition education systems by improving the training that practitioners receive in mineral-based health & nutrition." 

"Rick Fischer is an outstanding teacher of HTMA concepts and principles. He is also truly the expert on copper toxicity which has become more and more of an epidemic health issue with each passing decade. His work provides a solid foundation for advancing a person's understanding of the vital importance of minerals related to good health. 

 

Rick Fischer has made outstanding contributions to advancing the field of HTMA, minerals, and our understanding of the profound adverse effects of copper toxicity.

 

I don't know of any college, university, or medical research center that even comes close to the body of copper information that he has brought together. His research, work, and practical HTMA clinical experience is clearly doctoral level and even post-doctoral level in achievement excellence."  

 

~Dr. Malter, PhD, Clin.Psych. (retd.)

Pioneering expert on copper toxicity and the clinical application of HTMA in mental health


The HTMA industry is, unfortunately, not a regulated one.  This means that anyone can offer HTMA as a "professional" with very little training or experience. As a result, the field today is flooded with misinformation, outdated practices, and over-reliance on HTMA automation, all of it adding to confusion over the benefit of HTMA and whom to trust.  

 

As a leading HTMA industry expert and instructor, and beyond his wealth of experience in clinical practice, Rick is the global leader in copper toxicity and mineral-based health education.  He has personally mentored hundreds of today's practitioners, and is uniquely the only one able to provide all 6 of the core HTMA Advantages.   Rick is also:

  • Founder of www.coppertoxic.com, the world's leading website for copper toxicity awareness, education, and support..

  • Advanced Nutritional Educator and founder of the ground-breaking Mineral Mastery Nutrition Training Program  (www.mineralmastery.com).

  • Co-founder of the annual HTMA Virtual Summit - advancing excellence and leadership in upholding the integrity of authentic HTMA education.

  • Certified HTMA Practitioner in clinical practice bringing over a decade of experience across thousands of clients with a special focus on highly personalized wellness protocols

  • Head North American HTMA consultant for Europe-based research on copper toxicity and CFS.

  • Published Author of one of the seminal books on Copper Toxicity: The Complete Copper Toxicity Handbook

  • Co-Author of the soon-to-be-released (2025) book The Ultimate Guide to Overcoming Anxiety

  • Published Author of The Healing Workbook

  • Blood Chemistry training (Dr Harry O. Eidenier Jr)

Please note that Rick is not a medical doctor.  Rick provides natural health protocols (based on HTMA data) that aim to address mineral-based imbalances in the body.  

These often manifest as symptoms such as fatigue, digestive issues, depression, anxiety, hormone imbalance, insomnia, etc...conditions of which the root cause often remains a mystery to conventional practitioners. The goal here is to educate, improve awareness, and promote wellness through personalized guidance. Working with Rick does not create a "doctor-patient relationship".


Industry Leadership

LEADING EDUCATION & SUPPORT

FOR COPPER TOXICITY

 

Too many people have turned a blind eye to an epidemic that affects millions. It's time we elevate the conversation and raise awareness. The health, relationships, and lives of those we love are at stake. 
 
Rick's international work in this field is dedicated to supporting those affected by copper toxicity and increasing nutritional education and awareness. 
 
It's unconscionable that women still aren't receiving proper informed consent to certain birth control methods, including the copper IUD, and that many doctors still flat-out deny the idea of copper toxicity and the effects that continue to destroy so many lives (some examples).  

 

Rick's work is behind much of the awareness that exists today surrounding copper toxicity.

 

His launch of www.coppertoxic.com in late 2013 has enabled hundreds of thousands of people to receive information not readily available prior, with more practitioners now being trained to understand this epidemic and safe treatment approaches. As a result of Rick's work, online discussion groups are increasing, HTMA is becoming much more widely adopted, and support on a global scale continues to grow.

ADVANCING MINERAL-BASED

HEALTH & HTMA EDUCATION 

 

Despite the infinite connections between mineral imbalances and health conditions, standard medical care and nutrition protocols often ignore these vital links. 

 

From the role of magnesium in supporting cardiovascular health to the mental health effects of the copper/zinc imbalance to the various impacts of toxic metals, which can accumulate further when minerals are deficient, these connections are often not considered. 

 

This is why Mineral Mastery was created! 

 

As founder and instructor of the Mineral Mastery Study Program, Rick brings this education to help empower the general public and advance practitioner training. 

 

He is also co-founder of the HTMA Virtual Summit, an annual event bringing together leaders in the field of HTMA to provide education and maintain the integrity of authentic nutritional hair analysis. 

 

Rick's educational services have helped thousands of practitioners over the years gain a better understanding of not only HTMA, but also the improved ability to connect dots between mineral imbalances and some of the most common health conditions we see today.
