Naturopathic Microscopy Live/Dry Blood Analysis - Oxidative Stress Test
Some of the features that can be observed from one drop of blood
Cellular Function
WHY IS BLOOD IMPORTANT? The blood is viewed as the "river of life". Blood carries oxygen, water and nutrients to every cell in the body as well as remove waste. Our organs such as the liver, kidneys , pancreas and systems, depend on red blood cells to function. Conditions that are observed have an effect on all the organs and tissues leading to malfunction and imbalance.
Cellular communication from inside and outside the cell is so important for our body's processes such as metabolism and detoxification.
If the structure , fluidity and flexibility of the red blood cells are anything but perfect the ability to deliver oxygen and nutrients is compromised leading to OXIDATIVE STRESS. Oxidative stress occurs from toxic overload, infections, allergens, stress and poor food choices. This results in damage and compromised energy at the cellular level as well as low energy production and a sense of feeling unwell.
Healthy cells live in a healthy environment called the "terrain". The state of the terrain is crucial for cellular integrity and a reflection of one's health. If an imbalance is present it affects oxygen, the environment and ones energy levels.
Live and Dry Blood Analysis
Naturopathic Microscopy - You look great on the outside—what about on the inside? Immunity is related to gut health as it is 80% of the immune system. Are you absorbing your proteins, fats and carbohydrates on a cellular level to receive energy? Do you have optimal digestion? Analyzing live blood helps us evaluate how your cells are responding in the bloodstream. Our bodies will work for us if we give it what it needs as stress (emotional or physical), poor diet, lifestyle, and lack of sleep can affect our digestion and metabolism as it relates to cellular stress. Long-term stress on the body is oxidative stress and the dry blood/oxidative stress test can reflect where those weaknesses are so we can address the findings.
The test is quick and painless as all you need is a drop of blood obtained from a finger poke with a sterile lancet. We then analyze the health of the cells under a specialized high magnification microscope. Various blood morphologies and abnormalities can be identified providing information on underlying imbalances. This is a tool that will help the individual understand his/her individual state of health on a much deeper level.
