Still Exhausted? You May Have an Accessory Spleen

Don’t worry, you’re not an odd duck if you have this. Roughly 10-12% of the population have what’s called an accessory spleen, and yes, it can be restored to health.
An accessory spleen is tissue that grows outside the normal spleen, resulting in one or more extra spleens. You were either born with it or you developed it after a traumatic impact to the area under the lowest left rib, which is where the spleen is.
This extra tissue is benign, but it’s important to address your accessory spleen as it can contain the ‘spleen function’ that causes your symptoms. In fact, if you were born with an accessory spleen, you’re more likely to experience things like migraines, sciatic or low back pain, irregular blood pressure, foot pain, bowel regulation issues, and poor digestion (especially of wheat).
Weak spleens are very common among our clients, and we’re seeing more and more people with accessory spleens. Remember that when the spleen isn’t nourished with healthy foods and vitamins, it can’t properly clean the blood or produce white blood cells to fight infection.
The spleen also holds the energy of worry, anxiety, and excessive thinking. So if you notice a consistent dip in your mood and energy levels, a spleen deficiency may be the culprit.
The good news is, we can help! Through Nutrition Response Testing®, we can easily identify how to treat your accessory spleen while we support your main spleen.
It’s amazing how many things your spleen health affects. Once we detox and nourish your spleen with a personalized vitamin and supplement plan, you’ll feel happier, healthier, and better all around.
