As the Systemic Functions become weaker, every cell in the body is adversely affected. When the cells and tissues are not monitored, controlled, fed and cleaned effectively by the Systemic Functions, tissues and organs begin to subfunction (they don't work normally). Chronic subfunctioning of tissues produces chronic health problems.

Since everyone's body is different it is impossible to predict which tissues will subfunction the most and which symptoms and illnesses will be produced. The body can break down in many ways, producing many combinations of symptoms.

The age old concept of the Three Systemic Functions provides a very clear and useful way of understanding how the body works. Let's take a closer look at each Systemic Function:

Blood Function
Neurological Function
Vitality Function
