PURPOSE OF THE CIMA SYSTEM
The two most important things a doctor needs to know about a patient's nutrition is:
1. What foods are right for my patient?
2. Is my patient able to digest, assimilate, metabolize, and remove toxins from their body?
So the purpose of the CIMA biochemical blood chemistry analysis is to assess the body biochemically, from a physiologic (functional) standpoint rather than a pathological standpoint. Rather than looking at the body from a pathological (diseased) state, let us look at the body from a state of function. After all, it would behoove our patients to find a health problem before the life-threatening stage.
Taking the laboratories pathological ranges and creating physiologic ranges or narrowing the ranges down allows us to find a health problem before the life-threatening stage. For example, the pathological ranges for T4 are between 4.5 ug/dl -12.0 ug/dl. What we do is to use a mean and median formula to establish the physiological range, which is now corrected to between 7.0 ug/dl- 9.5 ug/dl instead of the 4.5 to 12.
So anything below 7 or above 9.5 is now suspect of a thyroid condition. We not only use one test but clusters of tests, evaluated from a physiological standpoint to determine the offending organ(s) or gland(s).
T4 THYROID PATHOLOGICAL RANGE
4.5----------------------------------12
OUT OF RANGE IN RANGE OUT OF RANGE
T4 THYROID PHYSIOLOGICAL (FUNCTIONAL) RANGE
OUT OF RANGE 7.0 9.5 OUT OF RANGE
This procedure is followed for all the tests setting up a functional understanding of how the body is doing biochemically. Just the way an M.D. would use the test to determine what organ is diseased and then give a medication we use the test to not only determine the diseased organ but any organ or gland that is malfunctioning and instead of using medications which can harm we use neutraceuticals to repair and rebuild the organ or gland. Then a follow-up blood test determines progress. We do not guess we test.
Then, by using vitamins, minerals, tissue concentrates, herbs, homeopathic remedies, and enzymes, that gland or organ can be restored back to a healthy state. With a follow-up blood test (objective findings), you will determine if you have accomplished your desired goal.
"IF YOU ARE GOING TO ANALYZE THE CHEMICAL ASPECT OF THE HUMAN BODY, THEN USE ‘CHEMICALS’ FROM THE BODY TO DETERMINE ANY MALFUNCTIONS THAT MAY EXIST."
-DR. JAMES CIMA
The CIMA biochemical blood chemistry evaluation is also used to determine the dietary nutritional needs of your patient. It will help you determine the proper food that your patient must eat to be healthy. Whether your patient does well with fatty proteins, such as meat or dairy, or if they are better with carbohydrates, such as fruits, vegetables, and grains.
The Cima system will help you create the perfect nutritional foods for your patient thus restoring biochemical balance.
If this was not enough your blood test will reveal immune system function and tell you if you are toxic, inflamed, allergic, or have an infection going on in your body.
