Do you have a toxicity or deficiency? Explain any disorders associated with the deficiency or toxicity.<\/p>\n

If left untreated, what might be some of the more serious long term and detrimental effects this might have on your body?<\/p>\n
Which special populations (pregnant women, children, etc.) are most affected and why?<\/p>\n
