Reference Ranges

Reference Ranges tell you if your results are Low, Normal, or High.

Low = Supplementation is recommended to improve your levels 

Normal = You current nutrition does not need any additional supplementation

High = You should not take supplements and you should talk with your healthcare professional.

Standard Reference Ranges
“Normal” values are based on the US population. The majority of the US population is not healthy.

Promix Reference Ranges

Optimizing your vitamin D levels can improve your sex drive, reduce hair loss, reduce anxiety, and strengthen your immune system.*
