Health Screening
Bio-resonance tests can identify nutritional deficiencies/imbalances.
Vitamins and minerals, also known as micronutrients, are a critical component of good nutrition, because they help the body carry out some of its vital functions.
Vitamins B and C are water-soluble and are not stored in the body. They must be replaced each day. Water-soluble vitamins are most unstable when cooked or stored improperly.group vitamins are essential for bodily functions such as energy production and making red blood cells, where as vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that plays a critical role in proper functioning of the body's immune system. Deficiency in some B vitamins is very common, particularly in those with celiac disease. It's rare to be seriously deficient in vitamin C, although evidence suggests that many people may have low levels of vitamin C due to poor diet, or due to resistance to absorption (for instance, in smokers).
Magnesium is an essential mineral used for hundreds of biochemical reactions, making it crucial for health. Symptoms of poor magnesium intake can include muscle cramps, facial tics, poor sleep, tiredness and chronic pain.
Virtually all minerals are unaffected by heat although they can get easily washed away in the cooking water. If you throw away the water after steaming or boiling vegetables then you lose them.
Without enough of calcium, a child's bones and teeth don't grow strong and straight, and an adult's bones lose minerals and weaken. Calcium is a team player. To protect against deficiency, you also need adequate amounts of vitamin D, the nutrient that allows you to absorb the calcium you get from food or supplements.
Lacking sufficient iron, your body can't make the hemoglobin it requires to carry energy-sustaining oxygen to every tissue. The result is a condition called anemia, which leaves you tired and weak. Mild iron deficiency may also inhibit intellectual performance.
Essential fatty acids (EFA's - also known as Omega oils) have a ton of benefits on your body and its cells. They help with cellular development and the formation of healthy cell membranes, and they have actually been shown to block tumour formation in animals, as well as block the growth of human breast cancer cells.
Essential fatty acids assist in the development and function of the brain and nervous system, and they help regulate proper thyroid and adrenal activity. They play a role in thinning your blood, which can prevent blood clots that lead to heart attacks and stroke. They also possess natural anti-inflammatory qualities that can relieve symptoms of both arthritis and other autoimmune system diseases.
Essential fatty acids regulate blood pressure, immune responses and liver function, as well as help with blood clotting and breaking down cholesterol. They also help you look good, as a diet low in these fatty acids has been shown to create skin problems, including eczema, dandruff, split nails and brittle hair.
Not getting enough omega-3 fatty acids has the most astounding effects. Low levels have been linked to:
mood swings
memory loss
dementia
vision problems
hair and skin problems
Additionally, both Alzheimer’s patients and children diagnosed with ADHD have been shown to have lower than average levels of these essential fatty acids.
