There is overwhelming evidence confirming that 50% of those taking vitamin supplements will remain deficient. Vitamin deficiencies are associated with the disease process and the overall condition of your health.  Vitamin, mineral and antioxidant deficiencies have been shown to suppress the function of the immune system which can contribute to degenerative processes such as arthritis, cancer, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease, and diabetes, to name a few.




Yet you, like many other people, may be deficient in some minerals, vitamins, antioxidants and/or other essential micronutrients and not even know it.  These deficiencies can contribute to the disease process and keep you from performing at your best.

Currently available analysis, using your own cells, (resting lymphocytes) measures levels of selected vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other essential micronutrients.  An analysis of the function of these cells can reveal a persons functional nutritional status more precisely than conventional serum testing.  The results obtained can uncover deficiencies that standard serum tests may miss.  If not corrected, such deficiencies could impair your health by contributing to the development or progression of chronic disease.

Nutrient status is a vital foundation of health.  Each micronutrient plays an individual and indispensable role in promoting optimal functioning of our cells.  By identifying and correcting functional micronutrient deficiencies, you are taking an important step toward long-term maintenance of optimal health.

Many of you may think you are maintaining a healthy lifestyle by eating a balanced diet, exercising and taking multi-vitamins.  Yet, despite all of this, you may have certain deficiencies or even lack essential nutrients.  Some identifiable reasons for this are:

Chronic Illness
Health conditions such as arthritis, cancer, cardiovascular disease, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease or even fatigue, can directly or indirectly be affected by micronutrient deficiencies.

Biochemical Individuality
Each of us is metabolically and biochemically unique, therefore, the micronutrient requirements for one person may be quite different than the requirements for another.

Absorption
Although you may eat a well-balanced diet, if you do not absorb essential micronutrients, vitamins, minerals and/or other antioxidants properly, you may have deficiencies.

Lifestyle
Excessive physical activity, prescription drugs, smoking, alcohol and even sedentary habits all impact on micronutrient demands.

Aging
Our micronutrient requirements at age 30 are quite different from our requirements at age 40, 50 and beyond.

With the information obtained from this test, specific deficiencies that may be negatively influencing your health may be corrected.
