Why is micronutrient status important?
Virtually all metabolic processes that take place in the body require micronutrients. Vitamin, mineral, and antioxidant deficiencies can lead to degenerative processes such as arthritis, cancer, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Evaluating micronutrient status can identify inadequacies and uncover underlying causes of complex chronic conditions. Identifying deficiencies can slow aging and disease progression.
Consider micronutrient testing if you....
Suffer from
  • Chronic diseases like diabetes, cardiovascular conditions, and/or arthritis.
  • Skin problems.
  • Numbness/tingling in your hands or feet.
  • Weakened Immune system.
  • Digestive issues/disorders like celiac, wheat sensitivity, IBS, IBD, and SIBO.

Why should a micronutrient test be considered?
Scientific and clinical studies have demonstrated that micronutrient deficiencies can adversely affect health. These deficiencies can cause chronic disease and compromise your immune system.

WHY NOT SIMPLY TAKE ADDITIONAL MICRONUTRIENT SUPPLEMENTS?
Though it would seem obvious to boost the body’s nutrients with one of the many commercially available supplements, the human body is more complex than that. Plenty of evidence exists to show that micronutrient excess can also cause harm and long-term supplement intake can risk excessive levels. Certain nutrients perform best in the presence of other nutrients. For example, the body needs vitamin D to absorb calcium. Certain nutrients may perform counteractive functions. For example, beta-carotene and vitamin C enhance iron absorption, while calcium and polyphenols appear to reduce the absorption of iron. Also, numerous factors can affect proper nutrient absorption:

EXTRACELLULAR MICRONUTRIENTS
Micronutrients that are free floating in your blood and exist outside the cells, are called extracellular micronutrients. These  are a static measure of what is in your blood at any given time. These are dependent on your short-term intake of supplements or diet and give a direct assessment of your baseline micronutrient levels. Extracellular nutrient tests reflect a person’s diet over a relatively narrow time frame.

INTRACELLULAR MICRONUTRIENTS
Intracellular micronutrients are absorbed by your circulating white and red blood cells. Cellular micronutrient absorption is an important step in maintaining and promoting optimal functioning of all our cells. It is important to understand that, even though you may be consuming a healthy diet or supplements, your cellular intake levels of those nutrients may not be sufficient and may still provide risks for deficiencies and the disorders associated with them.
