Patti & Michael on Nutrient Testing

We know nutrition is important. But with all of the confusion around different diet camps out there, (Mediterranean, paleo, vegetarian, keto) many of us don’t know where to start. How do we know if we’re getting proper nutrition to keep us healthy? Are you keeping up with how your body uses nutrients due to exercise, growth, or wound healing? Is a nutrient insufficiency causing your depression or fatigue? Are you setting yourself up for cellular stresses and potentially chronic disease? Food diaries can help but sometimes they fall short.  Here’s where testing can help. Today we discuss the power of Genova’s Metabolomix+.
