(ferritin and iron binding capacity indices are far more accurate.) I believe SpectraCell's methodology may be outmoded relative to Vibrant's methods which are newer and possibly more accurate (although I'm bothered by the fact that Vibrant's "normal" group has only a few hundred people (ages unspecified.))
A study in nearly 12,000 people from the Scottish GoDARTS cohort reported a twofold risk in developing general statin intolerance in participants homozygous for the T allele
Similarly, studies on oxidative stress in skin conditions support the idea that antioxidants could play a beneficial role in preserving cellular integrity (Bickers & Athar, 2006)
