The Eleven
Fundamental Balancing Mechanisms in the Body
What Determines Your Unique Metabolic Tendencies?
Most of the time, and usually outside of our everyday awareness, we are
working to find our balance – be it spiritual, mental, emotional, structural,
biochemical or environmental. This process of continual balancing is called
homeostasis. At a physiological level, this balancing act involves numerous
processes that are constantly adjusting to keep us on track and healthy. There
are eleven crucial elements to this balancing process. Each of these fundamental
homeostatic control mechanisms play an important part in your overall health and
metabolic balance:
-
Your Autonomic Nervous System (master regulator of metabolism,
neuro-endocrine/hormonal balance) – Sympathetic / Parasympathetic
-
Your Carbo-Oxidative System (conversion of nutrients to energy via
intermediary carbohydrate metabolism, involving Glycolysis, Citric Acid (Krebs)
Cycle, Beta Oxidation) – Fast Oxidation / Slow Oxidation
-
Your Steroidal Hormone Balance (health of your adrenals and the
hormones they produce) – Stage 1, Stage 2 or Stage 3 Adrenal Fatigue
-
Your Neurotransmitter Balance (the status of your brain chemistry
affecting mood, concentration & energy) – High or Low Levels of Serotonin,
Dopamine, Epinephrine, Norepinephrine, GABA, Histamine, Glutamate
-
Your Lipo-Oxidative Processes (involving fatty acids/sterols balance,
cell membrane permeability, aerobic/anaerobic metabolism) – Catabolic / Anabolic
-
Electrolyte/Fluid Balance (crucial for optimal nerve conduction as well
as organ function) – Electrolyte Excess / Electrolyte Deficiency
-
Acid/Alkaline Balance (6 potential acid/alkaline imbalances) [Metabolic
Acidosis, Metabolic Alkalosis, Respiratory Acidosis, Respiratory Alkalosis,
Potassium Excess Acidosis, Potassium Depletion Alkalosis], resulting from 7
causal factors [autonomic, carbo-oxidative, lipo-oxidative, electrolyte/fluid
balance, respiratory function, endocrine efficiencies (kidney, adrenal, ovary,
teste, thyroid, posterior pituitary, parathyroid), chronic dietary imbalance
with respect to acid/alkaline pH of foods] – Acid / Alkaline
-
Prostaglandin Balance (important mediators of smooth muscle function as
well as inflammatory and immune processes in the body - found in virtually every
tissue of the body) – Series 1 + Series 3 Prostaglandins / Series 2
Prostaglandins
-
Your Endocrine System (Your Endocrine Type based on your dominant energy
gland) – Pituitary / Thyroid / Adrenal / Gonad
-
Your ABO Blood Type – Type O / Type A / Type B / Type AB
-
Constitutional Elements (constitutional qualities of foods, supplements
and herbs interacting with the constitutional qualities of your body)
Obviously, this is a lot of information to coordinate and understand. That's
why the science of Metabolic Typing® is such a breakthrough. By using advanced,
computerized technology we can determine not only which of these variables are
involved in your unique situation, but also recommend the ideal foods that you
will use most efficiently based on these variables.
And since your unique situation may require very specific fine-tuning, we
work with you every step of the way to insure that you get all the necessary
information to make the best personal use of this approach.
Health is wealth and quality of life is everything. That's the idea behind
this comprehensive, life-changing approach to your health. Call today at (775)
