WOULD A NUTRIENT PROFILE SCREENING BE USEFUL FOR YOU?
 
Nutrients are essential to your health and well-being. 
They are the building blocks for every cell, nerve and organ. 
Imbalances in nutrients can contribute to a range of illnesses.
 
Imbalances can contribute to problems in the following areas: hormonal health, sleep, mood, food digestion, skin health, bone formation, energy production and antioxidant function/cell health, anaemia to name a few.
​
Most of the nutrients that the body requires are essential, meaning that your body cannot make them and you need to get them from your diet.
​
WHAT CAN CAUSE A NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY?
 
Processed foods and modern agricultural practices have depleted many nutrients from our food. So even when we eat a mostly whole food diet, we can still end up being depleted of essential nutrients such as Vitamin C or Selenium.
 
Living in today's modern world has delivered the body an array of new challenges:
Increased stress
Nutritionally-low convenience foods 
A chemical-laden environment
​
Certain dis-eases and conditions make it difficult to eat or absorb enough nutrients for our bodies to function optimally:
Crohn's disease, Ulcerative colitis, Diverticulitis, Coeliac disease
Autoimmune conditions
Disordered eating - Anorexia nervosa and bulimia
​​
The nutritional status of an individual depends on a number of factors, the main ones being diet, digestive efficiency and nutrient absorption. This test fully assesses your nutritional status as well as how well you digest your food.

The test report will provide you with a full nutrient profile, including information on its food and environmental sources, deficiency signs and toxicity symptoms.
