7-Subclinical B-vitamin deficiency anemia – If your bone marrow lacks sufficient B6, folate and B12, to make adequate new red blood cells, your circulating RBCs get bigger to compensate. This is the best way to identify deficiencies of these essential B vitamins, the effect of which also constantly strains your heart and deprives cells throughout your body of sufficient oxygen.
8-Vascular inflammation – Have you had an ESR (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) test? This measures blood viscosity, which is increased by inflammation from many types of illness and stress.
9-Vitamin D deficiency – Your immune system can never function at its peak without sufficient vitamin D. Many other systems, organs and tissues throughout your body become impaired if you lack healthy levels (50 to 90 ng/ml).
10-Hydrochloric acid deficiency – A very common cause of low protein, B12, iron, calcium, magnesium, and other minerals, as well as intestinal infections. Normal production in the stomach is compromised by nutrient deficiencies and stress.
11-Coenzyme Q10 deficiency – Essential for every cell in your body, especially the kidneys, heart, and all your muscles, CoQ10 is made by your liver, but natural production peaks around age 25 then steadily declines.
12-Side effects of medications – All statins (cholesterol lowering drugs like Lipitor/Atorvastatin and Zocor/Simvastatin) directly block the production of CoQ10 in the liver. Very few people really need to take statins––if they’re willing to eat better food and take safe, effective cholesterol-lowering supplements. Antihistamines, Muscle relaxants, Antidepressants (Trazadone, Lexapro, Paxil, Prozac, Cymbalta, Effexor, Elavil), Beta blockers (Metoprolol, Propranolol) Opioids (hydrocodone, oxycodone, codeine, Tramadol) and Benzodiazepines (used to treat anxiety and seizure disorders––Lorazepam/Ativan, Diazepam/Valium, Alprazolam/Xanax, Clonazepam/Klonopin all frequently cause fatigue and drowsiness. Many people need these medications; but safe, effective, natural alternatives are often available.

1-Iron deficiency anemia - Subclinical iron deficiency anemia – Have you had a ferritin test? If the iron ‘storage tank’ in your body is running on empty, you have functional anemia, which puts a constant strain on your heart, and may be depriving cells throughout your body of adequate oxygen.
2-Pre-diabetes – Have you had an A1c test? Anything above 5.6 is a potential problem.
3-Low protein – Many people who eat plenty of good protein are surprised to learn the protein level in their blood is insufficient for optimal healing and repair (<7.00).
4-Dehydration – Most adults really need to drink two quarts, and maybe even a gallon of water daily to flush out toxins and keep their brain, joints, kidneys and cardiovascular system functioning properly.
5-Subclinical hypothyroidism – You may not need a prescription for Levothyroxine yet, but the thyroid is the furnace of the endocrine system––it keeps everything else cooking at the proper speed and temperature. A slight deficiency has profound long-term effects.
6-Chronic subclinical infections – Too many bad bacteria in your gut, gums or sinuses may be constantly depleting your immune system.

Any woman who has a heavy menstrual cycle who is not supplementing iron will very likely have functional anemia.
Functional anemia means a slight deficiency in the nutrients required for your bone marrow to make adequate red blood cells. Iron is the most important nutrient your bone marrow needs to make adequate red blood cells, but B12, folate, and vitamin B six are also often important, and I find deficiency in these All the time.
A slight anemia puts a constant mild strain on your heart. I’m going to say that again— a slight anemia puts a constant mild strain on your heart.
It can raise your blood pressure, it can increase your risk of a stroke, and it will almost always contribute to fatigue, tiredness, lack of energy, and delayed healing of any part of your body. If you make it more difficult for any part of your body to get all of the oxygen it needs all day long and all night long, healing and repairing of that tissue will be delayed— whether it’s your liver, kidneys, your muscles, tendons, and ligaments, your skin, and especially your joints and nerves, which are the slowest healing tissues in your body.

The quality and quantity of the food you eat, and the level of physical activity you incorporate into your daily life, are almost always the most important things anyone can do to enhance their health and prevent and reverse chronic diseases. Like heart disease and diabetes. Your can dramatically reduce your risk of most of the things people end up sick and debilitated with as they get older, because most disease conditions are caused by things like stress, identifiable nutrient deficiencies, lousy food, lack of exercise and general neglect.

High blood pressure has no symptoms. If you want to be proactive, it’s very important to periodically check your blood pressure. Especially if you’re over 50, and or you have any significant stress in your life. When identified early enough, high blood pressure can often be controlled without drugs. If you find that your blood pressure is beyond your control, then taking medication for this can be very important.
Privacy - the benefits of getting testing done that no one else has to know about.
Sodium potassium ratio - more important than total sodium intake. If you get enough potassium, it offset the amount of sodium you consume. The best place to get potassium is from food, not from a supplement.
The latest blood pressure guidelines from the European Society of Cardiology. High blood pressure = 140/90. Normal = 120/70. New category: ELEVATED blood pressure = 120-129/70-90. New treatment recommendations: Use lifestyle modifications only 3 months—relaxation techniques, better sleep, exercise and potassium from food. Avoid overtreating older patient’s blood pressure with medication, and any patients who get dizzy or lightheaded when standing quickly—a classic sign that you’re taking too much or the wrong kind of blood pressure medication.
Lower your own blood pressure by getting 75 minutes per week of intense exercise, or 150 minutes per week of moderate intensity exercise.

Gut microbes can affect your nervous system through the gut-brain axis — the network of nerves, neurons and neurotransmitters that runs through your GI tract. Certain bacteria actually produce or stimulate the production of neurotransmitters (like serotonin) that send chemical signals to your brain.
Gut microbes secrete hormones that regulate aspects of your metabolism, including blood sugar, hunger and satiety.
Just like a garden, your gut microbiome is affected by the nutrients and pollutants it’s exposed to.
Your gut microbiome requires a variety of plant fibers to thrive. Different organisms prefer different whole foods. In turn, they produce short-chain fatty acids and other byproducts that nourish your gut and lower the pH inside, which favors the more beneficial microbes.
On the other hand, a diet high in sugar and saturated fats tends to favor the less helpful types of microorganisms. Processed foods not only lack fiber and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) but also tend to come with many additives and preservatives, which can be harmful to your microbiome.
Chemicals that may poison your microbiome include environmental toxins like alcohol, tobacco smoke and pollutants. Additionally, pesticides like antibiotics can wipe out the good bacteria along with the bad. Other medications, like acid blockers, can affect your microbiome by changing the pH inside.
The movement of food and waste through your GI tract helps to distribute different microbes into different places along the way. If it’s too fast, they don’t have time to settle or to do their jobs before clearing out. But if it’s too slow, they can overeat and overgrow, spreading beyond their territory.

Bacteria in your gut help break down certain complex carbohydrates and dietary fibers that you can’t break down on your own. They produce short-chain fatty acids — an important nutrient — as byproducts. They also provide the enzymes necessary to synthesize certain vitamins, including B1, B9, B12 and K.
Beneficial microbes in your gut help to train your immune system to tell them apart from the unhelpful, pathogenic types. Your gut is your largest immune system organ, containing up to 80% of your body’s immune cells. These cells help to clear out the many pathogens that pass through it every day.
Short-chain fatty acids, the byproducts of helpful gut bacteria, help maintain your gut barrier, keeping the bacteria and bacterial toxins inside from escaping into your bloodstream. They also have anti-inflammatory properties for your gut.

Who should test adrenal function with a saliva cortisol test?
Cortisol receptors are present and almost every tissue in the body and affect nearly every organ system. Cortisol affects your nervous system your immune system, your cardiovascular system your respiratory system your reproductive system and your muscular skeletal system - your muscles, tendons, ligaments and bones.
Appropriate amounts of cortisol help balance blood sugar, control weight, keep your bones strong and your immune system healthy. Cortisol helps with good sleep, and mood. It affects protein synthesis, influences your testosterone/estrogen ratio your DHEA/insulin ratio and your pituitary and thyroid glands.
CAUSES of EXCESS CORTISOL
Stress, depression, oral contraceptives, infections, poor sleep, inflammation, hypoglycemia, pain, and exposure to toxins.
CAUSES of LOW CORTISOL
Nutrient deficiencies, stress, Dysbiosis (too many bad bacteria not enough good bacteria in the gut), chronic inflammation, chronic pain, toxic exposure, over exercising, hypoglycemia, poor sleep, depression, and severe allergies.
EXCESS CORTISOL results in compromised immune function, confusion, shaking us between meals, impaired memory, low energy, night sweats, binge eating, increased blood pressure, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, high blood sugar, increase risk of osteoporosis, increase insulin resistance and risk of diabetes. Increased infections, thin skin, fatigue, irritability, sugar cravings,, muscle weakness, weight gain, sleep disturbances, impaired thyroid function—especially conversion of T4 to the active form T3, increase risk of leaky gut syndrome.
ABNORMAL CORTISOL levels are associated with menopause, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, depression, impotence, anorexia nervosa, diabetes, memory loss, irritable bowel syndrome, exacerbation of multiple sclerosis, panic disorders, premenstrual syndrome, fertility, sleep disorders, osteoporosis, heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis, breast cancer, and Alzheimer’s.
