SCREENING DESCRIPTION

Heart disease and diabetes are our number one health problem, yet the medical system is so overwhelmed with sick people, it doesn't have time to help people learn how to stay well or get well if they have one of these problems.  Traditional medical testing only finds the problem well after it has been established and medication do not fix the underlying problem, they on change numbers on the tests.  The system I use gives a score of cardiometabolic health, including blood sugar metabolism, arterial stiffness, hardening of the arteries, inflammation in the small nerve fibers, blood pressure regulation and signs of chronic stress.  The test is non-invasive, meaning no blood is drawn.  The test uses a foot plate, blood pressure cuff and a finger probe (pulse oximeter) to measure response to stimulation of the nerves and sweat glands in the feet, blood pressure, pulse rate and regularity, as well as amplitude of the pulse at baseline and under two conditions of stress and one of relaxation in order to get an accurate measure of the health of the cardiovascular system.  The foot plate response is for the earliest signs of blood sugar issues, well before such problems show up in the blood.
