Description

Individualized Optimal Nutrition (ION): Overview

This combination of assays – the most comprehensive nutritional testing program available – measures over 100 components of your patient’s biochemistry. Many doctors use the ION profile to determine the underlying biochemical status of their most difficult patients.

The ION™ Report
Metametrix provides copies of all laboratory reports plus a bound report booklet for the patient. Graphs and explainations guide the patient to understand problem areas, and individualized supplementation recommendations show them what to do to improve. Standard test reports are sent to the doctor with a booklet to guide interpretation of the results.

The ION™ Profile is Helpful in Cases of:
Heart Disease – Deficiencies of magnesium, taurine, carnitine, fatty acids and other important substances commonly accompany heart disease. Re-supplying depleted nutrients greatly aids in prevention and recovery.

Obesity – Many obese persons have multiple nutritional deficiencies. Dietary improvement and nutritional supplementation based on ION test results help many achieve more active metabolism. In the process, they are able to eliminate excess fat and fluid.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome – This enigmatic disorder frequently involves mitochondrial inefficiencies (deficits in cellular energy production) that can be revealed by comparing the organic acids, amino acids and minerals test results.

Cancer – Malnutrition/cachexia is usually an exacerbating factor. Overall nutritional testing helps determine the degree of supplementation needed.

Immune Disorders – Deficiencies in a wide variety of nutrients, from amino acids to fatty acids to zinc, are seen in immune dysfunction.

Developmental Delay, Autism, Down’s Syndrome – Increasing numbers of children are experiencing dramatic improvements in development and achievement due to supplementation based on ION test results.

Mental/Emotional Disorders – The biochemical imbalances underlying these conditions can be elucidated by testing for organic acids, amino acids, minerals and fatty acids.

Learning & Behavioral Disorders – As might be expected, neurotransmitter precursors and their metabolites are often deranged in disorders such as ADHD. Organic and amino acids need to be assessed.

Multiple Chemical Sensitivities – In such conditions, functional nutrient levels are affected, including many of those involved in cellular respiration. ION can determine where imbalances occur.

There Are Three ION Panels to Choose From
1. The ION™ Profile includes:

Functional Deficiency Markers for Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12 and Folic Acid
Vitamins A, E, B-Carotene and Coenzyme Q10- (serum)
Essential Elements- (RBC/Whole Blood)
Amino Acids - (fasting plasma)
Fatty Acids - (plasma)
Organic Acids - (overnight urine)
Lipid Peroxides (TBARS) - (serum)
Homocysteine- (serum)

2. ION Pediatric Panel
Includes all of the above plus the addition of 20 amino acids which may be instrumental in properly assessing those with ADHD, Autism and other developmental disorders.

3. Cardio/ION™ Profile
Go beyond conventional serum lipid markers. Identify critical CVD risk factors, including:

• Fibrinogen
• C-Reactive Protein
• Homocysteine
• Lipoprotein(a)
• AA/EPA Ratio
• Testosterone
• CoQ10
• Insulin
• RBC Magnesium
• LDL/HDL Ratio

The Cardio/ION Profile can also guide your treatment of many other conditions, including:
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Cancer
• Obesity
• Immune Disorders
• Mental/Emotional Disorders
• Learning and Behavior Disorders
• Multiple Chemical Sensitivities
• Inflammatory Conditions
