Why We Do Nutritional Work
How many times have you heard the old saying, “You are what you eat?” I’ve heard it plenty of times myself, but wait a minute – isn’t it more accurate to say that you are what you absorb from what you eat? In other words – you are what your body can get out of the foods you eat and the things you drink. And guess what – everybody is different. You and I may eat the same exact thing, but I can guarantee that we will absorb it differently. If that wasn’t true then how is it that some people can eat anything and not gain weight while others just look at food and the weight seems to pile on? We all have differing absorption of nutrients, that’s why!
Symptom Survey
So here is what we do at Klatt Chiropractic Wellness Center: we use some time tested methods to establish what your baseline is. First we use a Symptom Survey which is a questionnaire that has been used for decades to correlate symptoms with many of the organs and glands of your body.
While one single symptom doesn’t provide us with much information, a pattern of symptoms can uncover many underlying health imbalances. That is the purpose of using the Symptom Survey. With this information we can build an individualized program to support your primary concerns and health goals.
Nutrition Response Testing
The Nutritional Examination we use is a series of non-invasive tests that quickly and accurately provide information vital to the assessment of your overall health.
The results from your nutritional consultation, combines with the results from your Nutritional Exam and Symptom Survey give the doctor a thorough understanding of your overall health.
Some of these tests include:
- Is your body in a healing state?
- How well you digest and process foods
- How your body handles blood sugar
- How your body processes essential and dietary fats
-
Key essential mineral evaluations
- Calcium
- Iodine
- Potassium
- Zinc
The Next Step
After your Nutrition Response Testing is completed and your Symptom Survey is finished, we go to work correlating all of the information we’ve gathered about you so we can design a program of health and wellness that is specific to your individualized needs. Doesn’t that make a lot more sense than going down to the local store for a bottle of vitamins that your body may or may not need? We think so!
P.S. Please ask us to show how your nutritional program can possibly be free to you!
