What truly makes this test unique is that it measures the functional level and capability of micronutrients present within white blood cells, where metabolism takes place and where micronutrients do their job—thus taking a person’s biochemical individuality into account. Unlike static serum measurements, which only assess the concentration of nutrients present outside of the cell and only provide a glimpse of your health.

Why is nutrient status important?

Cut out the guesswork of knowing which supplements that you need to take and which ones you don’t. With this analysis we can determine the results so that you don’t waste money on vitamins and minerals that your body may not need. This test allows us to be specific with our supplement recommendations.

Virtually all metabolic and developmental processes that take place in the body require micronutrients, and strong evidence suggests that subtle vitamin, mineral, and antioxidant deficiencies can contribute to degenerative processes such as arthritis, cancer, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes.

Evaluating micronutrient status can therefore be the first step in identifying metabolic inadequacies while shedding light on the possible underlying causes of complex chronic conditions.
