live blood analysis

The cells in your blood are like a fish in the water of a goldfish bowl. The health of the fish is dependent upon the state of the water. Clean up the dirty water and the sick fish gets better!

The pictures above show a sample of blood taken from the same person. The image on the left shows healthy red blood cells, the sample on the right was taken 5 minutes after drinking coffee. The blood here appears to resemble stacked coins, this is in response to the fast dehydrating effect of the coffee on the blood and the body. One of the consequences of red cells stuck together is that oxygen does not circulate as efficiently, eventually resulting in possible fatigue.

Blood is ….

the ‘river of life’ flowing through you; with some cells carrying oxygen, water and nutrients to all of your body’s organs and tissues and others cleansing the blood of unwanted organisms. Over time, imbalances in your blood will affect your organs and tissues leading to malfunction and eventually illness. If our cells can’t carry oxygen and nutrients well, or fight infection, then this may lead to symptoms of lowered energy, fatigue, a general sense of feeling unwell or more serious problems.

‘The cell is immortal; it is merely the fluid in which it floats that degenerates. Renew this fluid at intervals, give the cells what they require for nutrition and as far as we know, the pulsation of life may go on forever’

Dr Alexis Carrel Pioneer of Vascular Surgery

Nutritional Microscopy ….

(also known as Live Blood Microscopy/Live Blood Analysis) is a tool that allows you to view your own blood. The Nutritional Microscopy (NM) procedure involves taking a tiny drop of blood from the fingertip. This is a painless procedure. The blood sample is then magnified up to 1000 times under a microscope and a camera displays the image on a monitor.

What does it show? ….

The purpose of Nutritional Microscopy is to visually identify potential problems. The blood is the lifestream of the body and has an enormous amount of information about what is happening at a cellular level. For example the size and shape of the red blood cells can relate to nutritional deficiencies. If the cells are too large you may be low in vitamin B12, if the cell wall is misshapen, you may be low in essential fatty acids. The great benefit of Nutritional Microscopy is that you can see the cells in the blood while they are alive and active and then learn about how you can improve the quality of your blood.

How would it help me? ….

Remember the fish in the dirty water? If the fish are your cells, and you want to keep your cells happy, then ensuring the ‘water’ surrounding them is clean is of vital importance to good health. Based upon observations, specific protocols to cleanse and rejuvenate your blood may be recommended. This could include herbs, natural supplements and detoxification protocols as well as simple lifestyle and dietary suggestions.

It must be noted that Nutritional Microscopy cannot diagnose illness nor is a substitute for medical advice.

Appointments should preferably be made in the morning after a period of fasting overnight.
