You know how the Hulk had a genetic mutation that made him turn crazy (and green)? Maybe that’s not so far-fetched! Corn seed is genetically modified to withstand bugs and disease. This is great for industry, but it’s potentially not so great for our insides. Your genes are the fuse box of your body. If you flip the wrong switch, you may have a disease turn on. Genetic modification may mess with our wiring, and nobody knows what could happen. These altered foods save manufacturers money because they are cheap, so they don’t want to look at the potential risks. We must protect ourselves, so read labels.
An important point to make is that sugar and corn sugar (also called “corn syrup”) are not the same thing. Fructose coming from corn is metabolized differently than regular sugar and triggers the buildup of triglycerides (which is fat in the blood). High triglycerides can lead to heart disease, which, according to the American Heart Association, kills one of us every minute in the United States. On top of that, high-fructose corn syrup apparently doesn’t trigger hormones that should tell the body it is full. So, we just keep eating and eating and eating….
What’s also alarming, is that corn syrup and cornstarch, unless they are labeled as organic, are from genetically modified corn and are present in virtually all processed foods. These ingredients are in the dairy case, baked goods, the frozen foods section, canned and boxed foods. 
You know what’s coming, don’t you? Yep, get rid of it, especially if you are trying to handle a health issue. Once your body is on a maintenance program, and functioning at its optimum level, a few indiscretions will be tolerable, but it does not take much when a body is off balance to create a bad effect. Plus, regular consumption of corn products that are genetically modified irritates the intestinal wall and eventually creates digestion issues.

It is very precise and scientific. However, if I were to analyze you using Nutrition Response Testing before it was explained to you, you might find it strange, or simply not believable – only because it is probably very different from anything you may have experienced before.


Quite frankly, if you want to get healthy and stay healthy, it is important that you understand what Nutrition Response Testing is, and what our recommendations are based on.


Otherwise, you are less likely to follow through and actually do what you need to do to get well. To put it simply, if you don't follow through, you won't get well. And if you are not going to get well, why do it in the first place?


The results we have been having with Nutrition Response Testing are often in the 90% and better range. The only reason we are here is to help you get well. That is why I want to make sure you get the correct understanding of what Nutrition Response Testing is right from the start.


Let's get started

In medical practice there are two key parts: the diagnosis (identifying and/or naming the “disease” or syndrome) and the treatment (drugs, surgery, etc.).


In Nutrition Response Testing we do not diagnose or treat disease - but we also have two parts: the analysis and the personalized health improvement program (using designed clinical nutrition).


Simply put, first we do an analysis, and then we design a natural health improvement program to help you handle what we find in our analysis of your body and condition.


First the Analysis

The analysis is done through testing the body's own neurological reflexes and acupuncture points. The neurological reflexes are derived from the part of the nervous system whose job is to regulate the functions of each and every organ. The acupuncture points are selected from the ancient Chinese system of acupuncture, which is thousands of years old.


Nutrition Response Testing is a study of how the different points on the surface of the body relate to the state of health and to the flow of energy in each and every organ and function of the body.


Interestingly, since the human anatomy has not changed significantly in thousands of years, the utilization of these reflexes and specific points have become extremely useful in our practice because they are so accurate!


Think about it

Each Nutrition Response Testing reflex represents a specific organ, tissue, or function, and indicates the effect that energy, or the lack of energy, is having on the body. By testing the Nutrition Response Testing reflexes, we have a system of monitoring your body at each visit that has proven to be extremely accurate clinically, and that helps us identify exactly what the body needs and how well we are meeting that need.


Doesn't this sound like something you would want for yourself in order to predict, with certainty, what is needed and wanted by the body to get you to the next stage of improved health?


How do we access the Nutrition Response Testing™ reflexes in order to get this information?


If I were to hook you up to an electro-cardiograph machine and take a reading, that would make perfect sense to you, right?


What is actually happening during this procedure? Electrical energy from the heart is running over the wires. This electrical energy makes the electrocardiograph record the energy pattern in the form of a graph or chart. I could then study this graph and tell you what it all means.


Here is what we do with Nutrition Response Testing. Instead of connecting electrodes to the specific points being tested, the Nutrition Response Testing doctor contacts these points with his/her own hand. With his other hand, he/she will test the muscle of your extended arm. If the reflex being contacted is active, the nervous system will respond by reducing energy to the extended arm, and the arm will weaken and drop. This drop signifies underlying stress or dysfunction, which can be affecting your health.
