Bio Energy Testing is the most innovative health and anti-aging mechanism that An Optimal You has ever seen.
It use Korr technology in combination with anti-aging computer algorithms to measure how efficiently energy is created by your body. Both adults and teenagers can benefit from these tests.
Every cell in your body contains thousands of structures called mitochondria, which take the sugars, fats and proteins that we eat and convert them into forms of chemical energy that the body uses to carry on living. They also turn oxygen into the energy molecule ATP by burning fat and sugar. When your mitochondria cannot optimally produce energy, your body will not function properly.
Decreased mitochondrial function causes almost every disease, especially obesity, and the very process of aging itself. Bio-Energy Testing not only determines your body’s energy production efficiency, it provides solutions to correct any issues you have with it.
What Is Aging?
Aging is the physical and mental deterioration of our bodies that occurs as we get older. Aging is the process of growing older, but there are two kinds of aging: chronological aging and biological aging.
We all have a chronological age. It’s the number of years we have been alive, incrementing every year by one, and it’s out of our control. However, that age is just a number. Biological age, on the other hand, is a number that might go up by more than one every year. Fortunately, we have the power to control and even reverse our biological age.
The speed at which our biological age increases is a result of our bodies’ energy production. Energy production is the center of “anti-aging”. Unfortunately, the common theory is that decreases in energy is caused by aging. But it is actually the complete opposite of this. By managing youthful energy creation as you grow older, you will be able to greatly slow down your body’s aging process.
Decreases in our energy is what causes of poor aging. Once we start to slow down in life and we stop doing the things that were keeping us active, we start to see the aging process take place.
What Causes Decreased Energy Production?
Every aspect of your body depends on its energy production. Low testosterone levels, thyroid issues, depression, and sleep deprivation all cause a decrease in the energy our bodies produce. Decreased energy can also be caused by our life styles. Too much caffeine, poor diets or skipping meals, and lack of exercise also effect our energy production. All of these evaluated for by one of our practitioners at An Optimal You.
A decrease in both fat metabolism and mitochondrial efficiency lead to a decrease in overall energy production. Biological aging and degenerative diseases can be slowed and even reversed by improving these two functions. Bio-Energy Testing can determine some of the reasons why you are not producing energy as well and let us know what you need to increase your energy production to optimal levels.
What is Bio-Energy Testing?
Bio-Energy Testing uses a pulmonary gas analyzer to measure oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production in real-time. A series of measurements are taken starting at rest and continuing into a progressively more difficult exercise program. The difficulty of the exercise is correlated with your current exercise capability.
The Bio-Energy Testing computer program then calculates:
- Resting mitochondrial efficiency
- Resting fat metabolism
- The heart rate range required to use up fat stores.
- Optimum carbohydrate intake.
- Optimum caloric intake.
- Lung function.
- Heart function.
- Overall strength.
- Optimum exercise levels.
How Does Bio-Energy Testing Work?
The Bio-Energy Testing analyzer measures oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production. The following items indicate how each part of production and consumption works. This helps determine the flow of operations throughout the human body.
- Oxygen consumption determines mitochondrial efficiency.
- Carbon dioxide production determines fat metabolism.
- Optimum carbohydrate intake is determined by the ratio of oxygen consumption to carbon dioxide production.
- Overall strength is determined by the amount of work you are capable of per unit of energy produced.
The Bio-Energy Testing analyzer sorts and analyses a huge amount of data and calculates your energy production both while resting and exercising.
Bio-Energy Testing algorithms present the results of these calculations in a way that can have an immediate clinical use. In addition, testing includes a pulmonary function test and body composition test. Your Biological Age is the age at which your body is effectively functioning. The Bio-Energy Testing computer determines your Biological Age by matching your energy dynamics with persons of various ages.
Who Should Be Tested?
The information gathered from Bio-Energy Testing can be used to help everyone. From older patients who wish to reverse the biologic age to physically fit patients who wish to optimize their athletic performance. Even teenagers can be tested.
Everyone in between needs to know this information to help lose weight and keep it off, increase muscle mass, and optimize energy production to age gracefully. This information should be known to everyone to increase their quality of life as well.
Bio-Energy Testing was first introduced to the healthcare profession in 2004, and since then new centers have been continuously opening up in both the United States and around the world. At An Optimal You, we pride ourselves on being the only Bio-Energy testing and healing center in the state of California. This testing will make a huge impact on your health and let you know what areas are being impacted by poor health decisions. Bio-Energy testing will bring to light the positive impacts you are making on your health as well. Give us a call today to schedule your appointment. Our team of practitioners are ready to help you take the next steps in bettering your future and keeping your youthful glow! Call us today.
