We are alive because of complex biological reactions that convert the food we eat into energy, restores tissues such as skin and muscle, and protects us via the immune system. This is called our metabolism and these reactions require essential nutrients (vitamins, minerals, amino acids) that we must get from our food, hence the term ‘essential’. If you aren’t getting these nutrients, either because you aren’t eating or you aren’t assimilating the right food, then these systems will not function optimally and symptoms like the following may appear:
- Inability to lose weight
- Digestive system issues
- Hormonal problems (infertility, PMS, early menopause, PCOS)
- Skin issues
- Brain/Mood issues (Depression, Anxiety, Brain Fog)
- Lack of energy
- Lack of vitality
- Sleep abnormalities
- Chemical Sensitivities
You may have a specific reason like genetics or be in a compensatory physical state that makes you have a higher requirement for a specific nutrient than the average person. Compensatory states are often due to a combination of lifestyle factors, the presence of disease, environmental reasons, a compromised GI tract, or a drug effect. Left uncorrected over months then years not only decreases the quality of your life but has the potential to set you on the path to disease.
The Organix® Comprehensive nutritional test profile provides vital information from a single urine specimen that you can collect in your own home. This nutritional test is valuable for determining
- Vitamin and mineral deficiencies
- Amino acid insufficiencies
- Oxidative damage and antioxidant need
- Liver detoxification capacity
- Functional B-complex vitamin need
- Neurotransmitter turnover
- How well your body is producing energy (mitochondrial energy production)
- Bacterial and yeast overgrowth
By correcting problems uncovered by the test results, we not only have the ability to resolve the chronic health conditions listed above and improve our body’s ability to heal and stay well but we have the opportunity to truly maximize our physical health and vitality.
