![]() Quantum Vitamins is happy to welcome Subaru Ironman Canada back to Whistler for another amazing event on July 27, 2014. Race day is fast approaching and this year, we have even more products to support you through your training. We now carry Hammer Nutrition, Salt Stick, Bonk Breakers, Amino Acids including MAP (Master Amino Pattern) and BCAA's, Vega, a plethora of electrolytes, and essential fatty acids. Come by and see what we have - if we don't have what you need, ask us to bring it in! Adrenal Support including Rhodiola Rhodiola rosea is a highly effective aid to athletes in many ways. It increases the production of creatine phosphate and ATP (high-energy molecules) at a cellular level. It also increases the rate at which oxygen is utilized in the muscles. These factors contribute to faster recovery times, while also creating ideal conditions for greater speed, strength, and endurance. Rhodiola rosea has been well studied for its effects on reducing fatigue and increasing stamina while maximizing peak physical performance. Rhoziva - Pure, Potent, Powerful Rhoziva™ is a proprietary herbal blend utilizing the powerful Rhodiola rosea root that has been proven to fight fatigue, promote mental focus and clarity, enhance memory, increase physical endurance during periods of physical exertion and support physical and mental stamina during times of increased stress. Rhodiola rosea protects against Glutathione depletion, helping maintain immune function by acting as a potent antioxidant. In addition to helping the body form red blood cells and maintain proper muscle function, Rhodiola rosea also improves the body’s ability to metabolize carbohydrates, fats, and proteins while helping maintain healthy skin.

![]() Viewing a fresh, natural blood sample (a sample not altered with any stains etc., needed for normal microscopic exams), under the technology of a dark field microscope, will reveal conditions of your blood not normally even considered during the diagnosis of a normal blood test performed in a doctor’s office or a lab. This technique allows inspection of cellular dynamics which as noted above normally escape analysis or diagnosis using orthodox medical tests. A dark field microscope is a microscope designed to permit diversion of light rays and illumination, from the side, so that details appear light against a dark background; as opposed to light passing straight through the specimen. If bright lights from the microscope pass directly through the specimen, the heat from the light source will kill the red blood cells faster. Also, by diverting the light rays, a greater amount of depth and detail can be viewed (almost like a three-dimensional view). Dark Field Microscopy thus allows a health professional to evaluate the shapes and other properties of individual blood cells, indicating nutritional conditions which can be adversely affecting a person's health. The advantage of this analysis over standard blood tests, which detect chemical changes in the blood, is the ability of dark field microscopy to detect nutritional disorders sooner, when the problem is in its infancy. By monitoring the blood's condition, a health professional can assist in "balancing" the blood by giving dietary and lifestyle recommendations which can enhance health. Live blood cell analysis can be useful in many ways for clients struggling with chronic diseases and feelings of malaise and fatigue. It can also be helpful in confirming to clients that they are on the right track to better health due to treatments and improved diets. To perform the live blood cell analysis, a small amount of the client’s blood is taken and immediately viewed under a special dark field microscope. To a highly trained analyst the blood’s condition can provide some valuable clues about the client’s general health and may suggest areas for further study and follow-up testing. However, live blood cell analysis is not a formal medical diagnostic test and should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis or prescribing treatments. Live blood cell analysis can provide some evidence of the following, among other conditions:
