Vitamin diagnosis can now be diagnosed by a blood test called Intracellular Vitamin Analysis to know exactly what you need.

This differs from previous blood vitamin levels which reflect just the level of a particular vitamin at that moment in time. This blood test is an individually ordered vitamin levels or a full comprehensive profile of vitamins and micronutrients which reflect levels over a period of the previous 3-4 months. It is covered by most private insurances and medicare.

Who can have this test? Anyone: Those suffering with arthritis, cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, fatigued, stressed, and depressed, or during pregnancy, lactation, just to name a few.

Dr. Punger always has heard both extreme sides of the story regarding vitamin supplements: How "necessary" they are verses, are they just being flushed through our system and down the toilet. She's heard various things about the quality and bioavailability about store bought brands vs. organic vs. distributorship vitamins. She has personally questioned the value of consuming a giant bowl of fortified cereal like Total and "supplements" like Ovaltine, within a balanced diet vs. taking vitamins. This test seems to be be a logical way of knowing our baseline nutritional status and finding out if our interventions are working.

Detailed easy-to- read results are available in two weeks and repeat testing is offered in 3 months to assess if our diet or vitamins are sufficient.

We are one of the first offices on the Treasure Coast to offer this! It is available now. Spectracell, the company offering Intracellular Vitamin Analysis also offers vitamin products available through the office.
