Abstract:

Analysis of a bioelement profile or its components (trace element status analysis) may provide essential information on metabolism of the human organism and help to correct a complex of metabolic disturbances. At the same time, there are not strict limits of �??norm�?� for element content in the human organism in general and biosamples in particular. Therefore, when analyzing element status of the human being one cannot use only categories like �??increased�?� or �??decreased�?�. It is strongly recommended to estimate the stages of bioelement imbalances. Such stages should be estimated using the exact population living in the current territory etc. In particular, the first and second stages of imbalances may be indicative of unbalanced nutrition and ecology, and desadaptation, respectively. These types of imbalances require only dietary management whereas drug treatment may result in adverse health effects. The third stage of bioelement imbalance may be associated with �??predisease�?� and reduction of functional reserves of the organism. Depending on the presence of complaints the correction of bioelement status of the organism may be performed using dietary supplements (in the absence of complaints) or through prescription of medicines (presence of non-specific complaints). The fourth stage of bioelement dysbalanceis characterized by disease manifestation and requires only pharmacotherapy. Therefore, such personalized approach helps to increase the efficiency of treatment and avoid possible side-effects of medications. We have successfully used this approach for 25 in health management of sportsmen, persons of extreme and dangerous professions, and clinical medicine (chlid neurology, endocrinology, etc.).
