Vibrant Wellness:
Micronutrient Testing
Vibrant America
Vitamin, mineral, and antioxidant deficiencies have been shown to suppress the functions of the immune system, leaving us more susceptible to chronic diseases like arthritis, cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease.
The Micronutrient Test is a comprehensive nutritional analysis of the body's intracellular and extracellular functions, as well as the fatty acid profile. It also measures vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other essential micronutrients within your white blood cells.
Vibrant’s patented technology and reporting allow for high-sensitivity quantitative detection of intracellular micronutrients.
Vibrant provides both Extracellular and Intracellular testing to provide a thorough understanding of your short- and long-term nutritional status and requirements.
High-accuracy, high-precision testing is enabled by automation and advanced testing methodologies.
Clinically relevant RBC Folate, Omega fatty acids, and Magnesium are measured.
WBC levels are normalized to the total WBC count.
BUT I EAT A BALANCED DIET, EXERCISE, AND TAKE A MULTIVITAMIN...
Many people lead healthy lifestyles, yet some individuals still have deficiencies. Why?
Biochemical Individuality
Because each of us is metabolically and biochemically unique, the micronutrient requirements for one person may be quite different than the requirements of another.
Absorption
Although you may eat a balanced diet, if you do not absorb vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and/or other essential micronutrients properly, you can have deficiencies.
Chronic Illness
Health conditions such as arthritis, cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, fatigue, and multiple sclerosis, to name a few, can be affected directly or indirectly by micronutrient deficiencies.
Aging
Our micronutrient requirements at age 30 are quite different from our requirements at age 40, 50, and beyond. Absorption difficulties, especially of Vitamin B12, quite commonly occur as we age.
Lifestyle
Excessive physical activity, prescription drugs, smoking, alcohol, and sedentary habits all impact micronutrient demands.
