Nutrient Deficiency Testing
Nutrient Status and Health Implications in Common Chronic Conditions
Overwhelming scientific evidence confirms that vitamin deficiencies are associated with disease processes and the overall condition of your health. Vitamin, mineral and antioxidant deficiencies have been shown to suppress immune function and contribute to chronic degenerative processes such as arthritis, cancer, Alzheimer’s, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. This body of research has been reaffirmed by the Journal of the American Medical Association (June 19, 2002-Vol 287, No 23).
Micronutrient Testing from SpectraCell Laboratories
The MicroNutrient Test measures how micronutrients are actually functioning within your white blood cells and measures the biochemical function of vitamins, minerals, amino acids and antioxidants. This test offers a unique way to scientifically assess the intracellular requirements of micronutrients that play an important role in your overall health and wellness. Your test results also provide you with targeted nutrient therapy recommendations for those vitamins and minerals found to be deficient. The MicroNutrient Test also provides a total antioxidant function test, which assesses the ability of your cells to resist damage caused by free radicals and other forms of oxidative stress.
Interpreting Test Results
SpectraCell provides easy-to-read test reports for you and your doctor. It included easy-to-understand supplement information that explains the role of each nutrient that is found deficient, deficiency symptoms, how to obtain that nutrient in food and supplementation.
