Vascular Display Grades Rise with Breast Dilation and Inflammation

Vascular Display Grades are an exclusive aspect of Preventive Thermography, distinguishing our services from those of basic thermographers.

Your interpretive report features grayscale images illustrating the vascular dilation in the breasts along with a Vascular Display Grade that rises with breast inflammation.

An unexpectedly high Vascular Display Grade suggests the necessity for testing related to metabolic and detoxification concerns that may elevate risk. Factors commonly contributing to a higher Vascular Display Grade include a diet rich in processed foods or low in fiber, chronic stress, suboptimal liver function, insufficient sleep, lack of physical activity, and the MTHFR gene mutation, which impacts approximately 40 percent of women.

For those with an elevated Vascular Display Grade, consulting a functional hormone health provider for appropriate testing, such as DUTCH, along with professional advice that may encompass nutraceutical support, can be beneficial.

Moreover, chronic conditions like pain, stress, hormonal imbalances, allergies, illnesses, low-grade infections, and sensitivities to certain foods or chemicals can further influence the function of the nervous and immune or lymphatic systems, leading to mottling.

When the vascular display grade reaches levels 3 or 4, it is crucial to take all these factors into account.

Grade 1 is often observed in postmenopausal women, whereas Grade 2 typically appears during the period from puberty to menopause.

Grades 3 and 4 are regarded as elevated but can be considered normal during times of lactation, pregnancy, and nursing.

Given the various factors that may lead to heightened blood flow to the breasts or increased lymphatic inflammation, it is crucial for clients to consult a functional health provider to connect thermal findings with their specific circumstances before determining an appropriate course of action.

NOTE: Preventive Thermography does not treat or diagnose. While clients may be imaged at Preventive Thermography with the images analyzed/interpreted by its interpretive service provider, any treatment and/or diagnoses obtained by the client are through his/her health provider(s).
