Intracellular Diagnostics



AVAILABLE TO YOU          
FOR THE FIRST TIME . . . . .





Intracellular Diagnostics

The world's only office-based test of intracellular mineral levels . . . . .


At last . . . . .the health professional can perform an office test to evaluate crucial mineral status
INSIDE THE CELLS of the body.


Intracellular Diagnostics

Intracellular Diagnostics

Covers the Spectrum of Major Intracellular Minerals and Electrolytes.


Now for the first time, the world's only office-based test, Intracellular Diagnostics, Inc., offers you tissue evaluations for cellular status of:

Intracellular Diagnostics

--made possible through Computerized Electron Microscopy . . .


Intracellular Diagnostics
  1. Your solution to the continuing problem of measuring dynamic intracellular mineral levels.
  2. World's first reference test for tissue mineral levels.
  3. A new procedure using rapidly metabolizing sublingual (buccal) cells in the oral cavity to reflect very fast tissue changes of vital minerals.
  4. A reliable method allowing you, the practitioner, to monitor and screen cellular mineral balance objectively and repeatedly as you follow your patient's metabolic physical status.

    Note: Blood and urine levels of minerals and ions do not necessarily reflect what is happening
             in the working cellular tissues. Recent studies of the buccal cell smear used by
             Intracellular Diagnostics, Inc. indicate high correlations between altered mineral levels
             and pathophysiological conditions in the following body systems:

    Intracellular Diagnostics
             Functions of the organelles, membranes, and the cardiac muscle relate to intracellular
             changes which could contribute to coronary artery disease, arrhythmias, and
             plaque deposition.

Intracellular Diagnostics
  1. A sublingual smear is easily obtained in a few minutes by the health professional, by briskly scraping the mucous membranes on the floor of the mouth close to the frenulum.
  2. The cell samples are deposited and fixed on specially prepared slides and sent to Intracellular Diagnostics.
  3. Results are rapidly returned and the mineral status of the individual is evaluated.

    Note: Mineral imbalances have been documented as contributing to the following conditions:

Intracellular Diagnostics
  1. Offers you the first and only office based reference test for screening and identifying mineral depleted or imbalanced patients with pathophysiologic complaints.
  2. Reflects and correlates with current total body mineral status.
  3. Eligible for insurance coverage as a tissue electrolyte reference test. (VISA and MC accepted).
  4. Available to all health professionals at a low cost.
  5. Easily performed by health care assistants via handy kits.
  6. Features mail-delivered specimens for fast turn-around, rapid results of individualized patient information.
  7. Uses scanning electron microscopy method (SEM) with high tech, computer-based elemental X-ray analysis. (EXA).
  8. Offers professional assistance through a Clinical information service.

Intracellular Diagnostics
  1. They are safe, easy to obtain and use as a smear on specially prepared slides.
  2. They have a high cytoplasm to nucleus structure facilitating mineral analysis.
  3. They offer a rapid renewing homogenous cell population which reflects current total body intracellular mineral status.

Intracellular Diagnostics
  1. The cell sample is viewed by a scanning electron microscope.
  2. The specimen is bombarded by high-energy electrons or X-Rays.
  3. Energy is released by wavelengths which are distinct and unique to each mineral element.
  4. From this process, the computer calculates a "spectral fingerprint" for each patient that identifies the mineral levels and ratios within the cell.
  5. Results are mailed back to the health professional with an advisory risk factor status for each mineral.
