Cellular Health Assessment

What Is Cellular Health? 

In layman’s terms, cellular health is the assessment of how well our cells are functioning as a whole. As we become older, our cells become more fragile and do not work as well as they used to.  This breakdown in our cells is what causes aging, and this process can leave us feeling fatigued or like we’re not quite at our best.

 When cells begin to breakdown, numerous things happen simultaneously:

 Our metabolism slows down: Our cells function in order to help regulate metabolism, including keeping our glucose and cholesterol at healthy levels. As we age, our cellular response to nutrients can weaken, which might affect our body weight, glucose levels, and lipid (fat) metabolism in turn.

 Our immune system becomes imbalanced: Cell function deteriorates and cell signaling becomes abnormal as our cells age. Mixed signaling at the cellular level can cause problems in our immune system and affect our overall health.

 Our cells (including our red blood cells) become weaker: Our cells, also end up losing some of their functions. As a result, we can be at risk for anemia, which can make us feel tired and weak.

 Waste buildup occurs and starts multiplying in our cells: Our cells begin to lose their ability to efficiently remove waste from inside the walls of the cell.  The buildup of cellular waste creates the opportunity for cells to further function abnormally, which can lead to problems like liver diseases.

There are a few vital areas that you need to keep in mind for improving the health of your cells.

These are:

1. Micronutrient Deficiency
2. Inability to Deliver Oxygen Throughout The Body
3. Glucose or Fatty Acid Availability
4. Organelle (Mitochondria) Dysfunction
5. Redox Imbalances
6. Excess Exposure to Environmental Pollutants
7. Immune System Dysregulation
8. Infection​
9. Hydration Balance
10. Acid-Base Balance
11. Cell-To-Cell Communication
12. Purpose​
