Better Negative Effect on Cardiovascular Health Worse Most of the nutritional and metabolic measurements included in the Cardio/ION profile are associated to some degree with your cardiovascular health. However, those shown on the previous page of this report are ones that most strongly and specifically affect your cardiovascular health. Some factors are favorable for cardiac health when they are high, while others should be low. The chart above helps you to see where the most significant abnormalities are; the longest bars on the chart show the most abnormal results on a scale of increasing negative effects on cardiovascular health. The "Cardiovascular Index" chart below shows your test results with all of the factors summarized as a single index. Depending on your results, some steps that your doctor may want you to take to improve your cardiovascular health are shown in the tables of recommendations at the end of these pages. It is important that you follow your doctor's instructions to achieve the lowest index. Cardiovascular Index = All Factors Favorable All Factors Unfavorable These guidelines are intended as a starting point for the clinician who requested the test and are based only on the laboratory results included in this report. Final recommendations should be implemented by the clinician with consideration of medical history and current clinical observations. These tests are not intended for the diagnosis of specific disorders. Page 2

The test reflects vitamin D from all sources (diet, supplements, and sun exposure). A 2011 Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline suggested vitamin D deficiency be defined as < 20 ng/ml, insuffuciency as ng/ml, and sufficiency as ng/ml.¹ The Vitamin D Council has proposed ng/ml as optimal, and 100 ng/ml as an upper limit.² 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3 is from sun exposure, vitamin D-rich foods, or vitamin D3 supplements. 25-Hydroxyvitamin D2 is only from fortified foods or supplements. 1.

14 ION Analyte Pattern Analysis A multi-analyte report can provide greater insight about health risks and special nutrient needs. Patterns of abnormalities can reinforce the degree of significance indicated by a single measurement. Analytes from the various profiles in the ION report are combined below into categories associated with clinical/metabolic conditions. The categories included cover the most common areas of concern relevant to these profiles. Above each thermometer are listed the analytes used to calculate the degree of significance. An H or L appears when the patient result is in the fifth quintile (80%) of the population. An additional X next to an analyte indicates that the patient result is outside the 95% reference interval for that analyte. The thermometer advances to the right as the number and severity of relevant abnormalities increases. The longer the filled bar, the greater the degree of significance or likelihood that a health threat may exist in that category. The preceeding laboratory reports provide the detail upon which these thermometers are based.

18 Supplement Recommendation Summary With knowledge of a patient's full medical history and concerns, the ION Profile laboratory results may be used to help create an individually optimized nutritional support program. Based strictly on the results from this test, the summary table below shows estimates of nutrient doses that may help to normalize nutrient-dependent metabolic functions. Customized Vitamin and Mineral Formulation Nutrients listed in this section are normally contained in a multi-vitamin preparation. "Base" amounts may be used to ensure health even when no abnormalities are found. Customized preparations of the multi-vitamin/mineral formula shown below may be produced by compounding pharmacies. Base Daily Amounts Units Added Vitamin A B-Carotene 2500 IU 5500 IU Vitamin C 250 mg 500 mg Vitamin D 400 IU Vitamin E (Mixed Tocopherols) 100 IU 200 IU Vitamin K* Thiamin (B1) 100 mcg 5 mg Riboflavin (B2) 5 mg 10 mg Niacin (B3) 25 mg Pyridoxine (B6) 15 mg 50 mg Folic Acid (or 5-Methyl-THF) 400 mcg 500 mcg Vitamin B12 50 mcg 800 mcg Biotin 100 mcg 600 mcg Pantothenic Acid (B5) Calcium Citrate Iodine* 25 mg 500 mg 75 mcg Magnesium 250 mg 200 mg Zinc 15 mg Selenium 100 mcg 50 mcg Copper 1 mg 2 mg Manganese* Chromium Molybdenum* Boron* 5 mg 200 mcg 25 mcg 1 mg * Nutrients with an asterisk are not modified based on the ION test results.

19 Other Items Indicated for Individual Supplementation Various conditionally essential nutrients and other potentially beneficial interventions appear in this section only if relevant abnormalities are present. These ingredients are not included in the customized vitamin formula on the previous page. Amino acids listed on this page result from functional markers of individual amino acid insufficiency and do not reflect amino acids measured in plasma.

20 Ordering Physician: Customized Free-Form Amino Acids The table below shows a customized amino acid formula based on the results of your laboratory profile. The formula is optimized by adding amounts shown in the Grams Added column according to the relative positions of results found. Directions: Adults mix 1 and 1/2 measuring teaspoon (5g) in juice or water 2 times daily between meals as a dietary supplement, or as directed by a health care provider. Children under 12 years old: 3/4 teaspoon 1-2 times daily between meals. Children under 5 years old: Use 1/4 teaspoon, 1-3 times daily; adjust for body weight. Grams Added % of Formula Active mg/day L-Arginine HCl (80% active) L-Histidine HCl (74% active) L-Isoleucine L-Leucine ,133 L-Lysine HCl (80% active) L-Methionine L-Phenylalanine ,266 Taurine L-Threonine L-Tryptophan L-Valine Pyridoxal-5-phosphate Alpha-ketoglutaric acid Total grams added 9 Base Formula amount 291 Total Weight 300 L-5-Hydroxytryptophan This formula is intended to optimize essential and conditionally essential amino acid intake. Other non-essential amino acids can be produced in human tissues. Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (an active form of vitamin B6) and alpha-ketoglutaric acid are key factors needed for the body's utilization of amino acids. The formula may be ordered as a powder that dissolves easily in beverages or may be added to foods such as applesauce. Other forms of supplemental dietary protein or amino acids may need to be restricted while using your customized formula. If enhanced energy levels prevent sleep, avoid bedtime use. This formula is provided as a starting point that may guide decisions about medical treatment based on the test results. It is derived only from the laboratory results included in this report. Final recommendations should be based on consideration of the patient's medical history and current clinical condition. In addition to the above customized amino acid formula, this patient may benefit from further use of single amino acids, as evidenced by profiles other than plasma amino acids. See the category, "Other Indicated Nutrients" on your Supplement Recommendation Summary Page. Page 19
