OligoScan: The revolutionary method to directly Detect Intracellular Vitamins, Minerals and Toxic Metals.
This is a Non-Invasive Cutting-Edge Test Done in Our Office.
“You can trace every sickness, every disease, and every ailment to a mineral deficiency,”
Dr. Linus Pauling, Stanford University; winner of two Nobel Prizes
Who is this for:
- 99% of the American people are deficient in minerals, and a marked deficiency in any of these important minerals may result in disease.
- Our physical well-being is more directly dependent upon the minerals we take into our systems than upon calories or vitamins, or upon precise proportions of starch, protein or carbohydrates we consume.
- Chronic low energy, aches, pains, recurrent colds, moodiness and sleep disturbance are common signs of unwellness and yet doctors often find normal blood tests.
- That’s because, while they are useful, blood tests are measuring vitamins and minerals in the blood, and not testing what is being utilized in the cells.
- Elderly Americans are especially vulnerable to mineral deficiencies.
- One study showed that 85% of nursing home residents are malnourished and depleted in key minerals and vitamins.
What This Test Does:
- A revolutionary new diagnostic tool for quickly assessing essential minerals and toxic heavy metals, such as mercury, lead and aluminum.
- A quick and precise analysis of the trace elements and heavy metals in the tissues of the body.
Where is the Oligoscan performed:
- The Oligoscan is performed directly in the office with a portable spectrophotometer device approved by OligoScan.
- The collected data from the patient is sent to the secure central Oligoscan server within a few clicks.
- Within minutes, you get the results.
What does this measure:
- Measures the minerals in the tissues of the body and provides immediate results.
- There is no wait for expensive blood or urine tests that may take weeks to come back.
- The test allows you to know the most efficient supplementation that would maximize the nutritional benefits for mind and body.
- In case of heavy metal toxicity, you can use detoxification techniques, supplements and/or lifestyle changes.
- Efficient mobilization is easily discernible with the Oligoscan.
How the Oligoscan works:
- The OligoScan technology utilizes spectrophotometry to measure the levels of trace elements and heavy metals exist within tissue, calibrated specifically for a specific area of the body.
- Every Mineral & Metal reflects light differently based on Its Elemental properties as seen in the Periodic Table of elements.
- The Oligoscan utilizes UV Visible light to measure the amount of specific elements in the fascia tissue (palm of hand) with Algorithmic formulations & Statistical (Gaussian) Methods over the human reference range. (10 yr development)
- This is a quantitative analytical methodology, which consists of measuring the absorbance level or the optical density of a specific chemical or mineral substance.
- The basic principle is that every type of compound, regardless if it is chemical or mineral based, absorbs, emits or reflects light (electromagnetic radiation) over a certain specific range of wavelengths.
- The more the sample is concentrated, the more it absorbs the light within the limits of proportionality expressed in the Beer-Lambert Law.
How It Compares
Blood – Represents what is currently in circulation at that moment. The “Transportation System”of nutrients
Hair Mineral Analysis Test – Represents what the patient has excreted in the past 3 months, via epithelial tissue (hair)
Urine (Provocation) test – Shows to what extent the body can excrete metals
Oligoscan – Shows the intra-cellular uptake of the minerals, namely through the tissue (including muscle & small capillaries), at a depth of 4mm through the skin What has been bio-accumulated, via the blood, into the intra-cellular tissue.
