SpectraCell's FIA™ is a clinically effective diagnostic tool
for the prevention and management of chronic disease conditions. There
is overwhelming evidence confirming that nutrient deficiencies have
been shown to suppress immune function contributing to chronic disease
process including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, arthritis and
Alzheimer's.

New
technology developed by SpectraCell laboratories measures the intracellular
function of selected vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and other
essential micronutrients within your white blood cells (lymphocytes).
Since lymphocytes carry an individual's nutritional status over
a period of time, the results obtained, uncover deficiencies that
standard serum tests may miss. If not corrected, such deficiencies
could impair your health by contributing to the development and/or
progression of chronic disease.
With
this simple blood test, the guesswork is taken out of potential
nutritional deficiencies that can often go undiagnosed with routine
testing.
There
is overwhelming evidence documenting that vitamin,mineral, antioxidant
and other essential micronutrient deficiencies supress the function
of the immune system. This contributes to degenerative processes
leading to disease such as arthritus, cancer, heart disease and
diabetes, to name a few. Most people may be deficient in these micronutrients
and not even know it. These deficiencies can contribute to disease
processes and keep you from feeling your best.
Because
each of us is metabolically and biochemically different, the micronutrient
requirements for one person are often different than the requirements
of another. Even if you eat a balanced diet, exercise and take a
multi-vitamin, you still may not be supplying your body what it
needs based on your genetic make-up.
Who
should have this test done? In an ideal world, everyone!
It is highly recommendid for anyone with a chronic illness, fibromyalgia,
those on medications, alchol consumers, recreational drugs, over-exercising,
sedentary habits, and smokers. Both males and females should be
tested prior to conceiving, plus pregnant and/or nursing mothers,
just to name a few.
Most
insurance companies cover this test. Blood is drawn at a draw site
then results will be sent to us within 2 weeks. With this simple
blood test, the guess work is taken out of potential nutritional
deficiencies that often go undiagnosed with routine testing.
