Understanding Risk Factors for Breast Cancer
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month! In a recent study, the Metametrix Estronex Profile was utilized to show the effectiveness of cruciferous vegetables and supplements in improving the 2/16 ratio and lowering risk of breast cancer. To learn more about the Estronex Profile and the mentioned study, click here for an audio visual presentation by Dr. Elizabeth Redmond.

Dr. Sherry Rogers discusses the Cardio/ION Profile
We welcome Dr. Sherry Rogers, author of The Cholesterol Hoax, to this episode of the Metametrix Institute Podcast. Dr. Rogers says that cholesterol is not in fact, the biggest cause of heart disease, nor is it predictive of heart disease. Over half the folks who die of a heart attack each year never had high cholesterol. But they did have other warnings that could have saved their lives had they been checked. Join us as she shares her insight on testing for cardio markers and cardiovascular health!

| The New Vitamin K Assay is Here! |
The Many Functions of Vitamin K
Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that functions as a cofactor in the production of blood coagulation factors (in the liver), osteocalcin (in bone), and matrix Gla-proteins (in cartilage and vessel walls), each resulting in the deposition of ionic calcium. The Vitamin K Assay measures a functional marker, undercarboxylated osteocalcin (ucOC). Very little vitamin K is stored in the body, therefore direct measurement is not ideal. High undercarboxylated osteocalcin indicates low vitamin K status.
