Body chemistry evaluation is a process in which a series of biomarkers are analyzed via a blood sample. It is a diagnostic tool to interpret the body’s state of function. When our blood chemistry is in balance, biomarkers reside within the optimum levels and we are healthy. When biomarkers reside outside optimum levels though, the body is in a state of poor health, and we are exposed to health issues.

Blood chemistry allows us to identify and then correct deficiencies. It allows us to prescribe appropriate diets, supplements and medications, as well as informing lifestyle recommendations. But most importantly, blood chemistry allows us to create real measurable outcomes with respect to your health.

No two people are chemically the same - we’re all different. There is NO one-size-fits-all formula. Your ideal carbohydrate, protein and fat intake actually depends on your genetics, your lifestyle, and factors such as your exposure to toxins, and any recent or current health challenges.

It is for these reasons that Nutrition Diagnostics programmes revolve around body chemistry analysis. In fact, Nutrition Diagnostics has over 30 years of experience in analyzing body chemistry, and moving markers to optimum levels - thus restoring balance and health.

The body becomes toxic from a number of sources. Air pollution, dental amalgam fillings, hidden or otherwise obvious dental infection, ‘sick’ air conditioning in commercial buildings, EMF's, man- made chemicals in our food, water, prescription drugs, synthetic fabrics, plastics and pesticides to list a few.

Those toxins gradually build up in our system over time and contribute to poor health, malnutrition, chronic inflammation, and the potential to damage the nervous system and immune system.

In many cases, you can’t ‘put your finger’ on what is making you feel lethargic, unwell and less than mentally sharp. Toxicity affects you at a deep cellular level.

Most methods for detoxing that you see are the product of marketing hype, not science. Tea detoxing, juice fasting and coffee enemas all have one thing in common - they deprive the body of nutrients. The body requires an uptake in nutrients to detox - especially from heavy metals such as mercury.

Nutrition diagnostics follows science-based methods for detoxing - all of which are informed by analysis of blood chemistry markers. Our detox programmes are tailored to you based on your body chemistry and have been clinically proven to deliver real, tangible results over the past 30 years.

Mercury is the third most toxic substance in the world. While removing mercury amalgams or removing mercury from your diet will cut off the supply, it does nothing to remove the mercury stored in your liver, kidney, bones or brain. Only detoxification will correct this. Removing mercury from the body is a difficult process. It’s not a disease that can be cured with pills, herbs or supplements. It can only be done through balancing blood chemistry and supplying the body with the necessary materials to bind something to the mercury and excrete it.

Over 30 years of experience, Nutrition Diagnostics have developed sound methodologies for safely excreting mercury from the body and detoxifying.

It might surprise you to learn that being overweight, most especially severely overweight, was relatively rare until the 20th century. The incidence began to increase dramatically in the early 80s.

What is even more disturbing is that this phenomenon has occurred despite supposedly increasing knowledge, awareness and education about obesity, nutrition and exercise. And despite the fact that overall calorie intake has gone DOWN by twenty percent over the past ten years, and exercise clubs have mushroomed. More people are cutting calories now than ever before in our history, yet more of them are becoming overweight.

Something is clearly wrong with the ‘popular wisdom’ that promises weight loss, but produces an endless cycle of weight loss and gain, disappointment and despair. ‘Diets’, at least as we have been influenced to perceive them, are not the answer.

Our bodies are ‘genetically programmed’ to make us gain weight and keep it on. Ten thousand years ago, our forebears had to have that ability. In times of famine, stored fat meant survival. And while our diet has changed dramatically since, our genes have changed little. To correctly manage our weight, we need to take into account our individual ‘chemistry’, and tailor our diet accordingly, avoiding foods more geared to taste and convenience than nutrition.

If you’re trying to simply lose weight, you’re chasing the wrong objective. By focusing on weight loss, we often inadvertently reset our metabolic rate, develop poor iron or protein status and experience a drop in white blood cell count - all of which indicate state of poor health.

Instead, Nutrition Diagnostics subscribes to the idea of ‘changing body composition’ - losing fat whilst increasing muscle mass as opposed to simply ‘weight’. At Nutrition Diagnostics, fat loss programmes are tailored specifically to you based on your blood chemistry.

Health and nutrition coaching is the primary vehicle through which Nutrition Diagnostics balances the body chemistry and restores the health of patients. Our highly trained health coaches and nutritionists are experts in analyzing and interpreting body chemistry and correcting imbalances through a combination of diet and exercise.

Nutrition, at its core, is very simple. It comes down to giving the body what it needs - supporting its intended design instead of dictating to it. As for what your body needs - only your body chemistry will know. Only after analyzing your body chemistry will our health coaches advise on nutrition, as it provides us with a clear picture of what deficiencies and imbalances you’re affected by.

Nutrition Diagnostics will take your body chemistry and create a personalized strategy to nutrition. You will learn what specific foods, vitamins and minerals to give your body and when that needs to happen — no more guess work. This programme will be completely unique to you. It is this personalized, scientific approach to high level health that makes Nutrition Diagnostics different and why our patients and clients have such high rates of success.
