What Is OxyCheck?
OxyCheck is a diagnostic test designed to assess oxidative stress levels in the body. Oxidative stress is a condition that can lead to cellular damage as a result of an imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants. This imbalance can contribute to various pathological processes.

 

How Does OxyCheck Work?
The test measures an oxidative stress index calculated from 9 biomarkers known to indicate oxidative stress. These biomarkers help assess micronutrient levels, enzyme function and the presence of harmful molecules such as oxidized LDL.

 

Expected Results from OxyCheck
OxyCheck can detect nutritional imbalances (for example, in trace elements), enzymatic dysfunction (such as in the glutathione cycle) and elevated levels of harmful molecules. This analysis provides personalized health insights and guides the development of effective treatment plans.

 

Who Is OxyCheck Suitable For?
OxyCheck is suitable for anyone who wants to monitor their health, whether or not they have specific symptoms. It is particularly useful for people experiencing recurrent infections, chronic inflammation, skin problems, aging, chronic fatigue or unexplained stress. These symptoms may be linked to oxidative stress and can be managed with appropriate intervention.
