FAQ's

The truth is...  I don't know. Every body is unique, with its own set of issues. Every body heals in its own time.  Symptoms typically diminish within a few weeks to months,  but true healing takes time. 

Generally I advise my patients to expect to commit to a minimum of one year, and to be prepared to invest 2-3 years. We should always be working to attain and maintain an improved state of health.  It truly is an ongoing life long endeavor.

The majority of patients have eaten themselves into their current state of ill-health, to one degree or another. The deficiencies or imbalances lead to a breakdown in resistance, or immunity, and a loss of the ability to cope with environmental stresses (food, immune, chemical or otherwise). The good news is that it is possible to reverse the process. 

The timing of the process is largely dependent upon several factors: your current lifestyle, the toxicity of your body, your willingness to follow a wellness program and modify your eating habits. It is also largely dependent on your level of commitment, mental attitude, mental fortitude and belief system. Ultimately, how long it takes  for your body to heal is dependent on you and how hard you are willing to work to obtain good health and natural wellness.

​

Favorable results are attainable in all cases provided that you follow through on the recommendations as closely as possible, show up for your appointments, and stay with your customized Program long enough to achieve maximum correction of the underlying issues. 

The results we see are typically in the 90% or better range.

This is an important question. Your investment is dependent upon your level of health and wellness, where you are on that level at the time of your initial visit, and how quickly your body will respond to the proper protocols of natural healing. 

Healing takes time. It is not linear. Think of healing like peeling an onion. As we heal one layer a new layer appears. The body will prioritize and tell us what it needs to  handle first. It will tell us where the fire is so to speak. Once we heal one thing, it will show us another and another. This is the healing process. 

Generally it takes 3 months or so to get your body out of crisis mode, another 6-9  months to stabilize and 1-3 years to truly reverse chronic health issues. You did not get sick yesterday. It happened gradually over time. Healing will also happen gradually over time with proper support and nutrition. The right mindset will make all the difference on your healing journey. Expect to be in this for the long haul. And remember... this is an investment, and return on this investment is YOUR LIFE. 

The average cost of supplementation is about a coffee a day, whether it a tall black coffee or a venti Frappuccino. 

• You are patient and compliant. If you are not patient, or compliant, this is not the program for you.

In Nutrition Response Testing, we DO NOT diagnose, or treat disease. We DO NOT chase symptoms and numbers. We are NOT practicing medicine.

We DO identify areas of stress in the body and support those areas back to health with whole food nutrition.

All disease is the result of two things: toxicity & nutrient deficiency. We address those areas and handle any barriers to healing we identify with the appropriate organic whole food nutrients. Each program is unique as each body is unique. We will design a customized Nutrition Program for your body's specific needs. 

The body will tell us EXACTLY what it needs.  It's really quite fascinating and also proven to be extremely clinically accurate.

If that's the case that's wonderful! But know  and understand that symptoms are the LAST thing to show up. Symptoms can take 20-40 years to manifest. But honestly, in todays toxic world we see younger and younger patients with symptoms manifesting much sooner.

By the time you're experiencing symptoms, your organs/glands/tissues are already 70% depleted.  That's pretty significant. The good news is that with proper targeted nutritional support we can repair and rebuild these damaged areas. We can bring new life to your body quite literally. We can build a brand new, healthy, stronger and younger body cell by cell over time.

Since most of the products are organic whole food products they are as safe as eating your meals. There are a few stressors that we will postpone addressing during pregnancy and lactation to avoid stirring them up in your system to avoid stressing your baby. In general, having a nutritional program is extremely beneficial to help support your body through the significant changes in every stage of pregnancy and postpartum and the new challenges that come along with motherhood.

Only if you truly want to get well. We have all heard the phrase, "You are what you eat". This is true as each and every cell in our body is made from the food we eat. We can choose to eat foods that produces vibrant healthy cells, or we can choose to do the opposite.  That's the difference between sickness and wellness.

Our cells are constantly dying and regenerating. In fact we have a brand new body every 7 years.  We have control over how heathy our body's can be. The quality and vibrancy of these new cells is determined by the quality and vibrancy of what we eat.

Food for thought!

Yes and No.  Please do consume whole, clean,  organic foods in their original God given state. 

The problem in this day and age is that our topsoil is largely depleted of nutrients and  not sufficient to produce food with the quality and amount of  nutrition that our bodies require.

You'd have to eat 66 cups of spinach to get the nutrients of just one cup of spinach from 100 years ago.

Hence the  growing epidemic of disease, obesity and toxicity in this country.

Our whole food nutrients are derived from plants grown organically on private farms, in soil free of 

pesticides – NO CHEMICALS are ever used. Ph.D.’s check the soil before the seeds are sown, to insure the fertility of the soil – even the weeding is done by hand.

The machinery involved in the processing of these products is made of glass and stainless steel only.

The temperature used in processing harvested plants is never raised above the point of 90 degrees Fahrenheit, so that the active ingredients are not cooked; they remain active and alive, and have a very long shelf life.

Your vitality and energy is derived from live food. Our nutritional products make it easy to insure your'e getting exactly what your body needs. The goal being a vibrant healthy body, free of illness and dis-ease.

Organic whole food supplements are not pharmaceuticals.  They're food. There are no side effects.

Truly the best 'health insurance' is to have good health!

Some health insurance providers may cover alternative health therapies, however at the present time we don't know of any that cover nutrition services.
