Nutrition Response Testing: Can It Really Solve Your Health Issues?

"The content below is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition."

Do you have a health condition or concern that is holding you back from living your life to the fullest? Maybe you’ve been diagnosed and prescribed medications to help alleviate symptoms, yet somehow you just don’t feel 100%.

Many people struggle daily with health conditions that are directly related to a weakened or compromised organ, but they never find out.

Instead, doctors turn to pharmaceuticals to cover up the issue so that their patients can return to “normal life”.

But this doesn’t solve the underlying issue and can worsen the condition over time.

So, how can you get to the root of your health problems and get yourself on the path to recovery?

Nutrition Response Testing is how.

This article will share everything you need to know about Nutrition Response Testing (NRT), and how it can help you overcome your ongoing health concerns and restore your quality of life.

Simply put, a nutrition response is how your body reacts to what you are feeding it.

No two bodies are alike, so what your partner, parents, or children eat, may not be what works well for your health and wellness.

Nutrition Response Testing is based on a proven theory that your body can tell you exactly what’s wrong with it by exhibiting a variety of symptoms. Your symptoms are like a map to the root of the problem, and through Nutrition Response Testing and nutritional therapy, your health-related ailments can be eliminated — permanently.

Developed by Dr. Freddy Ulan, DC , the test is a non-invasive process of analyzing the body to pinpoint the underlying causes of your ill health.

Wouldn’t it be amazing if you could ditch the daily medications and get back to feeling like yourself?

A Nutrition Response Test is a non-invasive and painless discovery meeting for your organs.

The test determines which organs aren’t functioning properly by monitoring the strength of specific reflexes while in contact with them.

Your reflex strength is directly connected to the health of the corresponding organ in your body, and the cause of your symptoms.

If your organs become weakened by nutrient deficiencies, food sensitivities, or toxic substances, your neurologic reflex will reflect that.

The practitioner will lightly press on the different acupuncture points (reflex locations) that are related to specific organs or glands, while also checking a muscle group.

The Nutrition Response Test will single out the exact stressor inside the body by observing your reflex strength when the possible stressor is held in your hand.

Possible stressors include:

• Toxic metals
• Everyday chemicals
• Parabens
• Food sensitivities
• Bacteria
• Fungi
• Viruses
• Parasites
• Mold

Your body’s responses provide the insight needed for the doctor to recommend a specific and individualized nutrition and supplement program to help return you to your optimal health.

It’s not uncommon to have doubts about something like this. We are raised to believe that medications are our best chance to restore our health issues.

So, is Nutrition Response Testing accurate? Absolutely.

NRT is a highly scientific and clinically proven method of determining the underlying cause of many health conditions, including:

• Hormonal imbalances
• Digestive Issues
• Thyroid problems
• Candida
• Weight problems
• And more

Patients who adhere to their individualized nutrition programs usually begin to notice positive changes within just 4-6 weeks.

As the population continues to age, the possibility of developing long-term health conditions such as heart disease , diabetes , or kidney disease increases.

In particular, people who eat many processed foods and pay little attention to their diets are at a much higher risk of developing health issues earlier on in life.

Imagine if someone could tell you exactly what you’re missing, or even what you’re getting too much of in your diet? And what you should be eating for your genes, specifically.

Nutrition Response Testing gives practitioners a very detailed account of where deficiencies lie by getting to the very root of your health condition.

Your practitioner will consider factors, such as:

• Genetics
• Microbiome
• Lifestyle
• Dietary habits
• Physical activity
• Symptoms

What we eat should be as individualized as we are for optimal health. And we’re not talking about a “diet” that you need to follow to remain healthy.

Individualized nutrition focuses on nutrition , food , and supplements based on the sole needs of each patient. Dietary needs change over time, as we age, and with healing.

With an individualized whole food and supplementation plan specific to your needs, you’ll be on your way to a healthier, more energetic you.

Your body has a way of knowing when something is wrong and will send us signals by producing symptoms. Sometimes these symptoms may seem completely unrelated, and can range in severity, but may all be part of a larger issue.

Some symptoms you shouldn’t ignore include:

• Sudden, unexplained weight loss
• Persistent bloating or inflammation
• Bladder or bowel changes
• Nagging cough
• Unexplained bleeding
• Heartburn or acid reflux
• Skin discoloration
• Headaches
• Nausea or vomiting
• Changes in appetite
• Fatigue or weakness
• Unexplained rashes or skin conditions
• Joint pain or swelling
• Swollen glands

Any symptoms that were not previously present should be addressed as soon as possible, especially if they persist.

If you experience chest pain, tingling, shortness of breath, or severe abdominal pain, you should seek immediate medical attention.

Using Nutrition Response Testing , the doctor will test your body’s neurological reflexes, which act as the nervous system’s method of communicating how your body systems and organs are functioning.

Your nervous system regulates all of the body’s functions for all the organs, and any weakness or malfunctioning of the organ will cause the nervous system’s reflexes to react.

By using Nutrition Response Testing we are able to detect any challenges to the body caused by food intolerances, toxicity, or even a compromised immune system.

Once the root of your health issue is corrected through nutrition and supplements, the once weak muscle response changes. Many common health issues can be identified and alleviated using Nutrition Response Testing and a follow-up individualized nutrition and supplement plan.

One of the most common issues women between the ages of 35-60 face are changing hormones, and they can strike at any moment.

Hormonal imbalances are not exclusive to pregnancy, PMS, or menopause.

Symptoms to look for include:

• Acne
• Anxiety
• Decreased sex drive (both men and women)
• Difficulty concentrating
• Difficulty sleeping
• Fatigue
• Food cravings
• Hair loss or unusual hair growth
• Hormone-altering birth control
• Hot flashes
• Irregular menstruation cycles
• Irritability/mood swings
• Lack of motivation
• Night sweats
• Vaginal dryness
• Weight gain

If you’ve experienced any of these symptoms, it’s a good idea to schedule a Nutrition Response Testing assessment.

If you’ve experienced symptoms like acid reflux, stomach pain, or constipation, digestive issues are likely the cause.

Many patients are unaware their symptoms are directly connected to digestive health issues. Nutrition Response Testing can reveal this and ultimately reverse it.

Health conditions related to digestive issues include:

• Barrett’s Esophagus: advanced complications of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and acid reflux
• Diverticulitis: affects your colon and results in frequent fever and/or abdominal pain
• Celiac Disease: a disease that results from eating gluten when you’re gluten-sensitive
• Constipation: infrequent, painful bowel movements
• Crohn’s Disease: symptoms include rectal bleeding, fever, diarrhea, and stomach pain
• Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD): a recurring burning sensation in the chest
• Gastritis: vomiting, heartburn, and nausea caused my stomach inflammation
• Gallbladder Problems: includes gallstones, bile duct stones, inflammation, and more
• Hyperthyroidism: bodily function issues caused by an overactive thyroid
• Hypothyroidism: failure to produce thyroxine; leads to chronic and long-term issues
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS): frequent stomach pain without reasonable cause
• Lactose Intolerance: symptoms result from an inability to digest sugars found in milk
• Ulcerative Colitis: sores in the lining of the large intestine that affect the immune system

This is just a brief list of symptoms resulting from digestive health issues.

Without knowing it, menopause symptoms can affect the way you approach your everyday activities. And not all women go through the transition naturally.

Sometimes, menopause is induced by medical procedures — like removal of the ovaries or uterus or even some traditional cancer treatments. When approached correctly, induced menopause may be reversed.

By taking a holistic approach to personal care with Nutrition Response Testing , many women experience relief or elimination of their symptoms altogether — and all without the need for medication.

This technique also allows us to get to the root cause of your menopause experience.

Common symptoms include:

• Difficulty concentrating
• Difficulty sleeping
• Fatigue
• Hair loss
• Hot flashes
• Increased anxiety
• Irregular periods
• Irritability
• Mood swings
• Night sweats
• Pain during sexual intercourse
• Weight gain

This is just a brief list of symptoms resulting from menopause. Please contact Dr. Donna Sergi below for more information or to schedule a complimentary consultation.

Now that we’ve answered your question, “ Does Nutrition Response Testing really work? ” — let’s take a closer look at how it can help you.

It is entirely possible to be experiencing a health-related issue and not even know it. Some symptoms are mild or only occur occasionally, which can trick us into thinking everything is okay.

But, does Nutrition Response Testing work only if you have symptoms? No.

Regardless if you have symptoms, the test will always indicate any underlying condition that can be improved through nutrition and/or supplementation.
