Minerals are crucial for various bodily functions, including bone health, muscle function, nerve transmission and immune support. The test helps identify deficiencies or imbalances that may affect overall health and wellness.
Potassium: Essential for nerve function, muscle contraction and maintaining fluid balance. Low or high levels can affect heart rhythm and muscle function.
Magnesium: Important for muscle and nerve function, energy production, and bone health. Deficiency can lead to muscle cramps, fatigue and heart irregularities.
Calcium: Crucial for strong bones, muscle function and nerve signaling. Low levels can cause bone weakness, while high levels may indicate kidney problems or hormonal imbalances.
Zinc: Supports immune function, wound healing and cell growth. Deficiency can cause immune weakness, skin issues and hair loss.
Copper: Plays a role in iron metabolism, immune function and nerve health. Imbalances can lead to anemia or neurological issues.
Selenium: Acts as an antioxidant and supports immune function and thyroid health. Low levels are associated with an increased risk of certain diseases.
Chromium: Helps regulate blood sugar levels and plays a role in metabolism. Deficiency can affect insulin sensitivity and lead to blood sugar imbalances.
