How Intracellular Testing Works 1. A sublingual smear is easily obtained by the healthcare professional, by briskly scraping the mucous membranes on the floor of the mouth to the side of the frenulu m. 2. Results are rapidly returned with evaluation of the patient's current mineral status. The cell sample is viewed by an analytical scanning electron microscope. The specimen is bombarded by high energy electrons or X-Rays.
Energy is released by wavelengths which are distinct and unique to each mineral element.
Results are mailed back to the health professional with an advisory risk factor status for each mineral. They have a high cytoplasm to nucleus structure facilitating mineral analysis. They offer a rapid renewing, homogeneous cell population which reflects current total body intracellular mineral status. They are safe, easy to obtain and use as a smear on specially prepared slides. A reproducible and reliable method allowing the practitioner to monitor and screen cellular mineral balance objectively and repeatedly to follow the patient's metabolic physical status.
