Is it really possible that your organs can be starving slowly, and you’re completely unaware of it? The short answer is yes—and this may be due to a specific health issue! We know this through over 15 years of studies and research on the glycocalyx, the protective micro-thin gel lining of all our capillaries, making up 99% of the circulatory system (that’s 60,000 miles!). The integrity of the glycocalyx structure and function is extremely important because it is responsible for the continuous delivery of nutrients, hormones and oxygen and removal of waste products from all your tissues and organs.
The glycocalyx can become damaged over time due to poor nutrition, lack of exercise, stress, smoking, genetics, and other factors and become leaky. The wall of the vessel becomes vulnerable to attack from substances in the blood that cause scaring, plaque, clots, and calcification. This damage can obstruct the delivery of these vital nutrients and oxygen and compromise the removal of waste products and carbon dioxide from our organs. When this happens, conditions and diseases can silently begin.
Some early warning signs of glycocalyx dysfunction are high blood pressure, cold hands and feet, type 2 diabetes, neuropathy, memory loss, hearing loss, and hair thinning. Many peer-reviewed studies by researchers worldwide link the glycocalyx damage with multiple diseases and conditions such as heart disease, kidney disease, cancer metastasis, long-haul COVID-19 complications, dementia, and more.
What Is GlycoCheck?
It is now possible to measure and analyze your microvascular health, including the health of your Glycocalyx, with an FDA Class 1 Medical device called GlycoCheck and objectively report your Microvascular Health Score (lower scores are linked to heart disease, hypertension, dementia, kidney disease, stroke, and diabetes).
GlycoCheck is a noninvasive test that uses a video microscope camera that you will place and hold under your tongue to evaluate your microvascular system – down to the smallest capillaries – and reflect your entire body’s health. During this test, you will be able to watch the live movement of your red blood cells as they travel through your microvessels. After the test, which takes approximately 15 minutes, you will schedule to receive a follow-up consultation, a report of findings, a video, and information on next steps.
How Does GlycoCheck Work?
The GlycoCheck produces a single Microvascular Health Score that reveals the health of glycocalyx by measuring several critical parameters of the microvascular system:
- Capillary Density: Gives the capacity of your capillary network to get nutrients to organs and tissue cells. Higher numbers are better.
- Capillary Blood Volume (CBV) Recruitment Capacity: Shows the additional number of functional capillary blood vessels that can be engaged when flow increases. Higher is better.
- CBV Dynamic: Indicates the maximum functional capacity of the capillary network. Higher is better.
- Perfused Boundary Region (PBR) Flow Corrected: Gauges the level of damage to the EDX. A lower number indicates a healthier glycocalyx.
- Microvascular Health Score (MVHS): This is your overall score based on capillary density, recruitment capacity, and glycocalyx health. A higher score means better microvascular health.
How You Can Restore, Regenerate, and Protect Your Glycocalyx
No matter what your microvascular health score is, you can still improve the health of your vascular system! Clinically proven to repair the damage in your arteries, veins, and microcapillaries is a new anti-aging patented product called Endocalyx Pro.
Endocalyx Pro is made up of seven synergistic ingredients from three classes of compounds: polysaccharides (helps restore), amino sugars (helps regenerate), and antioxidants (helps protect). You can restore the health of your endothelial glycocalyx and capillary function with Endocalyx Pro and monitor your progress with GlycoCheck.
Lifestyle choices are just as important. Support the health of your glycocalyx with a healthy lifestyle, reduced stress, regular exercise, and an anti-inflammatory, Mediterranean-style diet.
The Benefits of a GlycoCheck Test
- Knowledge of your true vascular health for you may look and even feel healthy on the outside, but inside your microvascular system a completely different situation could be developing.
- Valuable information you can give your doctor that will be an asset for your overall care.
- Take action to repair and protect your microcirculation and change the health of your microvascular system, therefore your health.
- Protect yourself from premature health decline.
- Peace of mind.

GlycoCheck has been in research hospitals and universities internationally for the last 15 years and is now in the process of being released to healthcare practitioners. I am very blessed to have one of the first thirty GlycoCheck systems released in the U.S. (three in Florida). I am certified in GlycoCheck and was selected to be one of only sixty certified trainers in the U.S. I have been scanning the last ten months for local physicians who are using the results to better help their patients.
This could very much be a life-changing 15 minutes of your life or the life of someone you love. If you have any questions, please contact me at 239.821.1223, or call 239.262.3478 to schedule your appointment. Once you schedule, I will contact you to review the pre-scan instructions and answer any questions you might have. I am very excited to bring this breakthrough technology to our area.
