SPORTS MEDICINE
CELLULAR ENERGY PROFILE
Our staff medical doctor or Naturopathic Physician assess 13 organic acids in the first morning spot urine. Included in this laboratory study is the evaluation of cellular energy metabolism related to muscle recovery, energy related performance markers, lactic acid clearance and other athletic specific health concerns. Understanding each persons individual cellular and mitochondrial energy metabolites is the cornerstone for developing individual nutritional programs for serious athletes.
ELEMENTAL ANALYSIS
Our staff medical doctor or Naturopathic Physician evaluates levels of both toxic elements and essential nutritional elements. Why use this test? It is one of the most accurate tests available for measuring both toxic and nutrient minerals. Expert sports physicians use this test to determine 3 major areas of importance to athletes; nutritional status, exposure to toxic metals and physical-neurological functions, which directly relate to physical performance. The results from this test can also determine many possible associated disease risks
AMINO ACID ANALYSIS
Our staff medical doctor or Naturopathic Physician quantifies amino acids excretion levels and their metabolites, and evaluates essential and non-essential amino acid nutrient status in the body. This test indicates functional deficiencies of a number of mineral cofactors that are essential to optimal performance. This test identifies suspected inadequate protein utiliza tion and other metabolic disorders including neurological dysfunctions that affect both muscular and struc tural issues related to athletic performance. Why use this test? It allows the physician to scientifically formulate a specific amino acid supplementation for the athlete to assure that amino-acid deficits common to high endurance sports are met.
