Micronutrient Assistance

Meaning

Micronutrient Assistance is the clinical practice of strategically supplementing or modifying dietary intake to correct existing deficiencies or optimize suboptimal levels of essential vitamins, trace minerals, and other non-caloric co-factors. This intervention is designed to ensure that all enzymatic and cellular processes, especially those integral to the endocrine system, function with maximum biological efficiency. It moves beyond basic nutritional sufficiency toward functional optimization.
