Vitamins & Supplements

"The Doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patient in the care of the (human) frame, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease."
- Thomas A. Edison

An illness is usually the outcome of multi-faceted conditions in the body over a period of time. Nearly all people with an illness exhibit many of the following conditions:

• Chronic infections- viral, bacterial, fungal, parasites or any combination of them all
• Hormonal Imbalance/Dysfunction- involving the pituitary gland, thyroid, adrenals, ovarian or testicular or any combination of them all
• Allergies- either to environmental irritants (trees, grasses, ragweed, house dust, molds, animal dander), medications or the foods we unsuspectingly eat daily
• Nutritional Deficiencies- due to inadequate knowledge or preparation of the foods or supplements we ingest daily
• Heavy Metal Toxicity- which may include mercury, lead, arsenic, nickel, cadmium or any combination of them all

The best treatment for each and/or all the above is a holistic approach.

A holistic approach is one that uses a combination of safe, natural therapies, with or without drugs, to treat the underlying cause of the illness, as well as to support the body's immune system as it recovers from the disease.

Injured tissues heal with nutrients, not with drugs.

We need to provide the body with the necessary raw materials, i.e., vitamins, minerals, herbs and natural hormones, in order to begin the healing process. Nutritional deficiencies are very common in people suffering from chronic illness and unfortunately are becoming increasingly common in healthy people as well.

The most common deficiencies are:

• B vitamins, especially B6, B12, and Folic Acid

• Essential fatty acids: Omega-3 and Omega-6

• Selenium

• Magnesium

• Vitamin D

• Vitamin C

• Coenzyme Q-10

How to diagnose nutrient deficiency?

By performing Functional Intracellular Analysis™ (FIA™), a test for assessing the function of specific vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and other essential micronutrients within an individual's white blood cells (lymphocytes).

FIA™ is the industry's gold standard for evaluating nutritional status. Unlike traditional serum, hair, and urine tests, it provides a complete picture of an individual's functional intracellular nutritional status.

FIA™ was developed at the University of Texas, as a diagnostic blood test for helping clinicians assess the intracellular function of essential micronutrients.

This detailed nutritional information enables clinicians to develop specific appropriate individual treatments for patients.

SpectraCell Laboratories, Inc., located in Houston, TX has become the premier provider of tests for identifying subclinical nutritional deficiencies.
