You have a moderately positive Carbo-Oxidative Type. This means your cells are overly reliant on glycolysis and beta-oxidation should be increased. This imbalance can be influenced by food and nutrient selection. The wrong ones can make symptoms worse, the right ones can bring about a better balance. Whether you are dominant in the autonomic nervous system or carbo-oxidative system will influence our food and nutrient selections for you.
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 reasonably calculate if you are in a state of imbalance. Specific recommendations can then be made, keeping in mind the therapeutic use of those same nutrients for other conditions you may have also.
