Zell-Screening (ZS) | The (R)Evolution of the Cell
A sufficient supply of nutrients and a low toxic load are essential conditions to promote a person's natural ability to auto-regulate, so that they remain or become healthy. Although it is estimated that 70% of all chronic diseases in humans are caused or complicated by heavy metals, this issue is often ignored in practice.
Determination of minerals, trace elements and heavy metals with Zell Screening (ZS)
Zell-Screening (ZS) detects the amount of minerals and trace elements in the tissue by means of spectrophotometry. This quantitative analysis measures the degree of absorption and the optical density of a chemical substance.
The basic principle is that each chemical component absorbs, emits or reflects light at a certain wavelength (electromagnetic radiation). According to the Beer-Lambert law, the more concentrated the sample, the more light it absorbs. This means that the intensity of radiation is attenuated as it passes through a medium containing an absorbent substance depending on the concentration and thickness of the substance.
Examples of wavelengths: Ca 422.7 nm, Mg 285.2 nm, Mn 279.5 nm, K 766.5 nm, Na 589.0 nm, Fe 248.0 nm, Cu 324.7 nm, Zn 213.9 nm
Results of Zell-Screening (ZS)
The "optical reading" of the absorbed light of a spectrophotometer generates a value. In combination with parameters such as blood group, weight, height, age and gender of the test person, a complex algorithmic formula is used to determine exactly and very individually whether the measured concentration (as a biomarker in the tissue) corresponds to the expected concentrations (reference values according to the parameters). The "traffic light principle" indicates whether the measured concentrations of minerals and trace elements were measured in the normal range (green), in the suboptimal range below or above the normal range (yellow), or as critically deficient or surplus (red).
The result correlates directly with the physiology of the test person. Since the measured values do not only correspond to the concentration, the individual parameters of the test person must be recorded exactly.
Hint: Determination of minerals and trace elements in the blood
The mineral content of blood serum or full blood count can be determined exactly. However, these values have only a low significance with regard to the mineral content of the cells on other tissue levels.
A low mineral level in the blood is only indicative of a generalized intracellular mineral deficiency in the case of a nutritionally deficient supply of other tissue structures. First of all, the corresponding depots are leached out before a deficiency in the blood becomes apparent.
However, a normal mineral level in the blood cells (erythrocytes) and in the serum does not mean that other cells in other tissue compartments are also sufficiently supplied with minerals, because the interior of these cells is often the place where the disease occurs, not the serum or the blood cells.
Implementation
The mineral content of blood serum or full blood count can be determined exactly. However, these values have only a low significance with regard to the mineral content of the cells on other tissue levels.
The measurement with Zell-Screening (ZS) takes place at three defined points on the palm of the hand. In this way, three tissue columns are measured. The hands are particularly well suited to achieving stable measurements, because in addition to an image of the concentrations of minerals and trace elements, the efficiency of heavy metal removal can also be precisely monitored.
Diagnostic advantages
- Mineral deficiency states and heavymetal loads can be measured attissue level and therapy resistancescan be successfully counteracted.
- The saturation of the minerals can be determined at the cellular level, which is decisive for a specific therapy recommendation. The ratio of mineral polarities also provides important basics for therapy optimization.
- The efficiency of the drainage can be monitored within a few weeks. Excessive demands, provoked by the detoxification itself, can be estimated very well.
- Nutrient recommendations can bedefined more specifically and the bioavailability of the nutrients administered can be observed. The impact of high-quality orthomolecular substances can usually be tested after 6 to 12 weeks.
- The measurement result is available within 30 seconds. This allows the therapist to make an immediate therapy decision. The therapist's database is stored in a high-security server center in Belgium and is available worldwide on any computer, provided a login and an Internet connection are available.
- The measurement is very stable and reproducible.
- Relationships between minerals, trace elements, heavy metals and the course of the disease can be better observed, as the measurement shows the concentrations that have been present for some time.
- The intracellular mineral analysis with Zell-Screening (ZS) shows the actual nutrient supply at cell level. Serum analysis, on the other hand, only reflects the oral uptake of nutrients during the past hours. Supplementation therapy is often terminated because the serum values are now alarmingly high, although the reality in the cell is quite different.
- Zell-Screening (ZS) leads to new physiological and pathophysiological insights into mineral tissue concentrations.
- Heavy metal analyses in the blood are just as unreliable for the reasonsmentioned, as heavy metals are mobilised out of the blood within hours. DMPS tests also do not adequately reflect metal concentrations at the tissue level, especially during excretion. provocation tests with DMSA/EDTA are comparable to Zell-Screening (ZS ) measurement.
- Before vital organs show a mineral deficiency, the concentrations inperipheral tissues are often already in a deficient state.
- Based on the numerous measurement results, conclusions can be drawn about various physiological parameters. The measured concentrations of minerals, trace elements and heavy metals therefore provide a picture of the extent to which the resilience of the various body systems can be impaired.
