Why test for nutrient deficiencies?

While maintaining a balanced diet and taking multivitamins are great ways to be healthier, they’re not enough to achieve optimal nutritional balance. You are NOT what you eat, you are what you ABSORB and we're finding more and more people with GI challenges (IBS, leaky gut, Crohn's, gluten intolerance etc.) that aren't absorbing the key nutrients needed for optimal health. 

With our nutrient deficiency test, we can accurately and objectively assess what your body needs, and what your diet is failing to provide. Everybody has different nutritional needs and we encourage patients not to guess with their health.

Deficiency testing identifies these "shortages" so we can work to compensate for them, either by making changes in your diet or by taking nutritional supplements.

Our nutrient deficiency testing looks at 50 different vitamins & nutrients. By testing for nutrient deficiencies we can help you design a personalized plan for maintaining your overall health and increasing your level of wellness or finding an underlying root cause that's causing a health challenge.

How does it work?

Micro nutrient testing involves analyzing a sample of your blood to determine the levels of various vitamins, minerals, and other essential nutrients in your body. This can help identify any deficiencies or imbalances that may be impacting your overall health and well-being. After the blood is drawn, it typically takes about 14 days to receive the results. During a consultation with a healthcare provider, such as Dr. Fars, you will review the results in detail and discuss any necessary steps to address any deficiencies or imbalances identified. This personalized approach can help optimize your nutritional status and improve your overall health outcomes.
