Precision Nutrition
With Precision Nutrition, we use your DNA to target ideal
nutritional supplementation to access the power of your
genes and guide you to your healthiest, most optimal you. By
accessing the marks on your genes that turn them on or o! ,
we are able to understand the nutrition you need to a! ect your
metabolism, performance and health.
Sandhill Healing Center has answers to help patients
bypass their genetic destiny through personalized nutrition.
Methylation is a process that takes place in the body throughout
the day. "Methyl" refers to one carbon molecule attached
to three hydrogen molecules and these atoms is essential in
building and repairing DNA, clearing toxins and helping with
nutrient absorption.
Individual genetic makeup helps determine how, and if,
compounds and elements are methylated properly. Small
genetic variation, known as Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms
(SNPS) can impact the methylation pathways and potentially
contribute to negative long-term health consequences.
With the introduction of our new application, developed
in collaboration with Nathan Morris, M.D., and Pure
Encapsulations Nutritional Pharmacologist Kelly Heim, Ph.D.,
Sandhill Healing Center has the ability to test, translate and
target important SNPS then tailor a supplement regiment for
clients based on those genetic insights.
" is practice of precision nutrition based on a person's
unique genetic makeup has been sought a# er by scientists and
clinicians since the human genome was $ rst analyzed. We now
can $ nd which gene variations exist for each client and make
rational, individualized supplement decision with con$ dence.
Acupuncture
From a modern scienti$ c perspective, stimulation of
acupuncture meridian points causes the release of nervous
system chemicals in our brain, spinal cord and muscles that
help restore the body's ability to heal naturally.
" ese chemicals provide tremendous health bene$ ts,
whether it's in% uencing your body to heal more quickly, or
simply altering how you may be experiencing your pain.
Acupuncture and Chinese medicine are safe, e! ective and
drug-free therapies that can help address a wide variety of
common ailments and problems.
