Nutrition Response Testing (NRT) (Available to All Ages)
Nutrition Response Testing is a safe, natural and non-invasive system of analyzing the body to determine the underlying causes of ill health. When these causes are found and corrected through natural, nutritional means, the body can repair itself and maintain more optimum health.
What is the Nutrition Response Testing Process?
In Nutrition Response Testing we do not diagnose or treat disease. There are two parts to our process:
1. The analysis (the assessment of your body’s current health status)
2. The personalized health improvement program (using designed clinical nutrition).
The Analysis: The analysis is done through testing the body’s nervous system. Nutrition Response Testing analyzes different areas on the surface of the body that relate to the state of health and to the flow of energy in every organ and function of the body. This information is derived from the part of the nervous system whose job it is to regulate the functions of the organs. Interestingly, since the human anatomy has not changed significantly in thousands of years, the utilization of these organs/areas have become extremely useful in Nutrition Response Testing because they are so accurate! Each area that gives a response 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 these organs / areas, 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.
What to Expect: Dr.Rich will sit down with you and talk about your health concerns, health history and current symptoms. Once Dr. Rich has a personalized record of your health history, concerns and symptoms he will proceed to the Nutritional Response Testing.
In the NRT procedure, Dr. Rich will contact organs/areas with his own hand and with the other hand, he will test the muscle of your extended arm. If the reflex to an organ/ area being contacted is “active or weak” 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.
Personalized Health Improvement Program: After discovering the “weak or active” organs/areas in the body, the next step is to test specific high quality nutritional supplements against those “weak or active” areas to find which ones will bring the reflexes back to strength. When Dr. Rich has found the correct nutritional supplements, as indicated by this procedure, he will recommend a personalized nutritional supplement schedule. These recommendations will be the right combination of nutrition at the right time to help correct the underlying deficiencies or imbalances that caused the organs/ areas to be “weak or active” in the first place. By following the program as precisely as possible, you are well on your way to restoring normal function and improving your health. It is that simple! We use “Designed Clinical Nutrition: to correct the cause of the problem, so that the body can regain the ability to correct itself.
Designed Clinical Nutrition: is exactly that: Designed (especially prepared based on a specific plan) Clinical (pertaining to the results in clinical use or actual practice of large numbers of patients over many years) Nutrition (real food, designed by nature to enable the body to repair itself and grow healthfully). We use concentrated whole food in a tablet, capsule or powder prepared using a unique manufacturing process that preserves all of the active enzymes and vital components that make it work like nature intended. These real food supplements have been designed to match the needs of the body. Designed Clinical Nutrition is not “over the counter” vitamins which are pharmaceutically engineered chemical fractions of vitamin structures reproduced in a laboratory. Which means they are not whole foods, “over the counter” vitamins are not “genuine replacement parts” as they lack many of the essential elements normally present in whole foods.
Summary
A NRT analysis can be performed on each follow up visit, thereby revealing the next layers of dysfunction so these can also be addressed and supported. In this way, each patient gets completely individualized care in the correct sequence for his or her body. Very much like opening a combination lock, you must use the right numbers in the right sequence and in the right direction at the right time - then the lock opens easily.
Therefore, you don’t “shot-gun” your diet or supplements, which can waste your time and money. Instead, following the correct sequence as revealed through Nutritional Response Testing, even the most complicated cases can be handled effectively and efficiently with less time and money spent.
Is it Possible To Restore Your Health?
Many people we see have eaten themselves into their current state of ill-health, been exposed to toxic chemicals or metals, or overwhelmed by stress, to one degree or another. The deficiencies or imbalances lead to a breakdown in resistance, or immunity, and a loss of ability to cope with environmental stresses. So, yes, the good news is that it is possible to reverse the process! What could be more natural? What could be more correct? Each cell, tissue, and organ in your body is in the process of replacing itself every day, month, and year. The health of each organ is dependent on making the correct nutrients available to upgrade or to maintain the health of the body at a cellular level. Designed Clinical Nutrition provides the right basic materials. Nutritional Response Testing tells you when and what to use to bring about the desired result. With this understanding of what we do, can you see how we might be able to help you do something effective to get yourself well? And once that is achieved, do you see how you might be able to use this approach to stay well? Now you have the complete 1-2-3 package.
You now know: 1. What we do. 2. How and why we do it. 3. What you need to do to have the potential of restoring your health and staying healthy.

Summary
- Through a thorough Health History and Analysis of your body’s organs/areas, we help you to determine the exact nutrients you need to supplement your diet, in order to bring about balance and better health.
- We make these highly concentrated therapeutic formulations available to you in tablets, capsules, or in powdered form to “supplement” your current diet. That is why they are called “food supplements.”
- Depending on your individual situation, we might also require that you make some specific changes in your diet & eating habits, and in your routines, in order to bring about the best possible results.
