Today there is a lot of focus and concern about health, obesity and fitness.  Aicube recently sat down with a staff member from the ANY LAB TEST NOW® franchise.  Currently there are 133 ANY LAB TEST NOW franchises – all in the “business” of helping people like you take control of their health.

AICUBE:  First off, thank you for a few minutes out of your busy schedule to talk about health.

ANY LAB TEST NOW FRANCHISE:  Absolutely.

AICUBE:  In your opinion and with what you witness at your local ANY LAB TEST NOW franchise, what is one major problem people face in their attempt to be healthy?

ANY LAB TEST NOW FRANCHISE:  As we listen to our customers, what we frequently hear is that they are concerned about nutrient deficiencies.

AICUBE:  Nutrient deficiencies, in what context?

ANY LAB TEST NOW FRANCHISE:  In the context of lacking Vitamin D, B12, or other antioxidant oriented vitamins.  At our ANY LAB TEST NOW franchise, we hear our customers mention this concern frequently.

AICUBE:  And from those deficiencies, health implications are derived?

ANY LAB TEST NOW FRANCHISE:  You bet.  A person can eat healthy, be physically healthy, and so on but if they lack B12, Vitamin D and antioxidants, they’re going to have potential health risks.

AICUBE:  Using B12 as an example, could you describe to our readers some of those health risks?

ANY LAB TEST NOW FRANCHISE:  Well, the studies on B12 can sometimes give different answers.  In some cases, they indicate that B12 deficiencies actually reduce the possibility of losing weight.  So you can quickly see the frustration for someone working out everyday with the goal losing weight, yet they lack B12. B12 deficiencies may also cause fatigue, loss of appetite, potentially pale skin and trouble concentrating.

AICUBE:  And you mentioned antioxidants?

ANY LAB TEST NOW FRANCHISE:  Yes, the implications from lacking antioxidants may include some cancers, coronary artery disease, or potentially macular degeneration.

AICUBE:  Wow.

ANY LAB TEST NOW FRANCHISE:  Again, those impacts are potential.

AICUBE:  Where do we get such antioxidants?

ANY LAB TEST NOW FRANCHISE:  Antioxidants are Vitamins E, A, C and beta-carotene, and could be found in some foods, red wine, or fruit.

AICUBE:  So, an ANY LAB TEST NOW franchise can help determine these B12 and antioxidant levels?

ANY LAB TEST NOW FRANCHISE:  Yes, the professionals at a local ANY LAB TEST NOW franchise offer testing to determine such deficiencies.

AICUBE:  Well, from what I was seeing in a video, it’s a pretty easy process to go through at the ANY LAB TEST NOW franchise.

ANY LAB TEST NOW FRANCHISE:  It is easy when you don’t even need an appointment or insurance to get the results that your doctor will need to make a quick diagnosis.

AICUBE:  And a potentially vital diagnosis as well…  Special thanks to ANY LAB TEST NOW and the local franchise for loaning you to us today for a few moments.

ANY LAB TEST NOW FRANCHISE:  Thanks for having me!
