What is Cellular Nutrition?
Dietary requirements of minerals and their levels are nearly impossible to establish using routine blood tests. Most electrolytes (calcium, magnesium, potassium...) are subject to close homeostatic regulation regardless of dietary intake, while the accuracy of their measurements is compromised by collection, transport, hemolysis, storage, mineral ratios, or processing used. Similar errors are encountered when trying to establish nutritional requirements through serum or plasma panels for zinc, manganese, phosphorus, chromium, selenium, copper, and most other trace elements.

While an antioxidant-rich diet may provide adequate cellular nutrition for the average, healthy individual - it would be inadequate for those suffering from nutrition related chronic diseases, which require the use of more sophisticated resources that are capable of measuring and optimizing an individual's cellular nutrition status.

Fact: Despite being water-soluble, Vitamin B6 can cause permanent, irreversible nerve damage when used improperly, while an excessive intake or overdose of Vitamin C has the potential of eventually causing zinc, copper, or calcium deficiencies in prone individuals... Read More
