SpectraCell Micronutrient Testing

Nutrition Balance offers SpectraCell micronutrient testing in West Hartford Center, interpreted one-on-one by Romely Ritoli, R.D., CD-N. The 31-nutrient panel evaluates how well your body utilizes vitamins, minerals, amino and fatty acids, antioxidants and metabolites, so nutrient repletion can be targeted to your own biochemistry through dietitian-guided counseling.

The SpectraCell test is the testing of functional deficiencies of nutrients at the root of cellular dysfunction. In order to harness the power of the body's healing mechanisms, nutrient deficiencies must be corrected based on your biochemistry.

What does the SpectraCell panel measure?

The Micronutrient Test (MNT) is a scientifically-based nutrient evaluation that measures how well the body utilizes 31 specific micronutrients, including antioxidants, amino/fatty acids, metabolites, minerals and vitamins, while specifying the body's need for these micronutrients that allow the body to produce enzymes and hormones as well as other necessities essential for proper health. SpectraCell's Micronutrient Test is an assessment that delves into the functional performance of micronutrients.

This test offers innovative solutions to address cellular nutrition to target repletion and provide a personalized approach to understand you as a whole person.
