Biology:Nutrient testing

From HandWiki

Nutrient testing in humans is a test that looks for deficiencies in a person body's amino acids, vitamins, antioxidants, minerals, and gives information about the immune response.[1] Samples can be collected through blood or urine testing, and can provide detailed information about amino acid imbalances or potential excess.[2] Nutrient testing is aimed at identifying nutrient deficiencies that could be contributing to multiple health conditions.[3]

Benefits

If a patient is experiencing unresolved or undiagnosed symptoms, nutrient testing can provide a closer look at underlying deficiencies.[4] Nutrient testing is aimed at guiding patients and health providers in choosing the right vitamin for the right reason, as well as the adequate dose.[5]
