Our Purpose

Taking personalized medicine mainstream. 
 

We believe that every patient is biochemically unique, and as medicine progresses in the pursuit of health and wellness, the need for individualized care is becoming increasingly important. SpectraCell is disrupting the healthcare model by advocating a personalized approach to medicine as the standard of care. We do this by providing access to precision diagnostics designed to empower patients and practitioners to work together to address the underlying causes of disease and promote a healthier future.

Our Story

In 1993, SpectraCell was founded with the vision of pioneering a new paradigm in medical practice, one of truly personalized healthcare. The company commenced operations to commercialize a unique, proprietary blood test that measures functional intracellular deficiencies of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants which reflect an individual’s metabolic processes and immune status. Our understanding of the importance of biochemical individuality and the role of subclinical deficiencies in chronic disease has been the driving force behind our unique and innovative solutions.

In 2006, we expanded our specialized offerings to include the Lipoprotein Particle Profile, using patented ultracentrifugation technology. This test provides the most advanced assessment of cardiovascular risk. Through our dedication to research and development, we've continued to expand our offerigs in the areas of metabolic function, inflammation, hormone balance, and genetic predisposition.

Today, we're a growing team of scientists, practitioners, and thought leaders all driven by the shared vision of accelerating precision medicine and pioneering the future of healthcare.

  • “SpectraCell Micronutrient Test is a unique, scientifically-based nutrient evaluation of specific deficiencies that allows for targeted treatment. The detection of micronutrient deficiencies using this test offers a functional and biochemically unique approach to the prevention and treatment of many diseases in which the root cause originated with nutritional deficiency and subsequent downstream of cellular dysfunction and illness.”

  • "As an interventional cardiologist and electrophysiologist dedicated to the advancement of cardiovascular health, I have come to appreciate the need for individualizing our approach to patient care. I have relied heavily upon SpectraCell's Micronutrient Test for the better part of the last decade. It gives me the ability to treat patients on a targeted and individualized level, thus eliminating the guesswork."
