Cellular Micronutrient Assay with Redox & Antioxidant Protection Assay
Cellular Micronutrient Assay with Redox & Antioxidant Protection Assay
Cellular testing for nutrient sufficiency, antioxidant capacity, and specific protective antioxidants
Metabolism happens within cells. Cells need nutrients to be metabolically active.
The Cellular Micronutrient Assay (CMA) is your tool to assess and address insufficiencies in micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) as well as amino acids, and other nutrients within immune cells. This is a reflection of long-term nutrient status not just a “snapshot” as is seen in serum nutrient tests.
An overload and accumulation of free radicals (from pollution, toxins, medication, radiation, etc) in the body can result in oxidative damage which plays a major role in the development of chronic and degenerative illness. Antioxidants can help protect the cells from oxidative damage.
The Redox Assay measures the overall antioxidant function of your patients’ immune cells.
The Antioxidant Protection Assay (APA) identifies specific antioxidants that significantly improve your patients’ antioxidant capacity and protect their cells from oxidative damage.
When to test?
nutritional & health status optimization with a tailored food and supplement plan
skin symptoms
women's health: fertility. Pregnancy, lactation, perimenopause, menopause, and others
weight management and/or obesity
high performance and/or severe stress
sports nutrition
pre and post surgery
burnout, fatigue, depression, mood swings, and low vitality
chronic conditions and/or metabolic syndrome (increased blood pressure and blood sugar, excess body fat, abnormal cholesterol)
