HOW DEUTERIUM DESTROYS YOUR METABOLISM
WHAT DEUTERIUM MEANS TO YOUR HEALTH AND PERFORMANCE.
Think of your body as a reservoir. It simply holds what you give it and uses it as you need it.
Now, picture your body as having two sources of water – the water that you drink and the water that your mitochondria make from the food you eat. Different water sources have varying levels of deuterium content from its source. The water you drink that is in sodas, etc. have different, typically much higher, deuterium content as well.
As a consequence, the deuterium content in your blood and tissues is from the combination of the deuterium in the water you drink and the water made by your mitochondria from what you eat.
Now why is your deuterium level so important to your health?
The most important isotope we encounter through food and liquids is deuterium, the heavy isotope of hydrogen atoms, and hydrogen ions drive and spin our energy producing nanomotor, ATP synthase, by an incredible ~1500 hydrogen ions transferred per second. See how it works.
As heavy deuterium isotopes break this delicate protein in our cells, it may cause metabolite crowding, which sets the stage for population diseases, which may affect you.
Our 2H diagnostic allows us to see what deuterium level you have in your body. We can then suggest a medical food protocol, supplement and / or deuterium depleting water that will bring it down to a maximum target range, which is the level that the body has mechanisms in place to effectively control and deplete.
For general health and disease risk evaluations, take advantage of our 13Cignature 2Health Metabolic profiling and restoration efforts to improve your health by measuring your deuterium levels and determining your stable isotope based fingerprinting.
A measure of your metabolic health can be assessed by your deuterium level with far reaching potential benefits to your health.
If your body can’t deplete Deuterium on its own, we need to look deeper, and that’s the 13Cignature story.
