You have a balanced Carbo-Oxidative Type. This means your cells oxidize food at a normal rate. This rate can be influenced by foods and nutrients: the wrong ones can create an imbalance, the right ones can maintain balance. Whether you are dominant in the autonomic nervous system or carbo-oxidative system will influence our nutrient selection for you. If your Metabolic Diet Type is ‘Balanced’, the nutrient list will not be provided, as it can result in confusion.
There is no one universal diet for all people. Discovering the diet type and nutrients best suited for you can be a difficult process, but on the basis of your answers only (no special lab work) The Analyst can calculate if you are in a state of imbalance. Specific recommendations can then be made, keeping in mind the therapeutic use of these nutrients for other conditions you may have.
