Nutrition Programs
Balanced function of the organ system is critical if you want to have
maximum strength and endurance. Most commonly it is wear and tear, stress,
injury or a nutritional deficiency that cause an organ to fall out of
functional balance with the rest of the body.
Your organs are a complex system of blood, glands, kidneys, lungs, liver,
gall bladder, spleen, pancreas, heart, stomach, intestines, skin and the
brain and nervous system that control the interaction between them.
When symptoms arise doctors in general treat the symptom thus by elimination
of symptoms, the patient is "cured". However, often there can be a
functional imbalance that is the underlying cause of the symptom. Dr. Mark
uses a form of Applied Kinesiology known as Contact Reflex Analysis (CRA).
This form of examination tests the functional reflexes of the organ system.
When imbalances arise CRA can be used to pin point the imbalance and
possibly the cause. Using another form of Applied Kinesiology known as
Nutritional Response Testing (NRT) the proper nutritional supplement can be
found that will help correct the imbalance.
Dr. Mark draws upon supplements from three of the most respected supplement
companies in the world. The supplements used are made from the highest
quality organic whole food sources available. The objective of this type of
supplementation is to actually increase the amount of nutritional intake in
your daily diet. Taking vitamins is not necessarily supplementation. What
you typically buy over-the-counter is synthetic in nature or not derived
from whole foods. Dr. Mark can demonstrate the difference that whole foods
sources can make in your overall well being.
Healing this way is induced by your body's reaction to higher quantities of
nutrients. Much like giving fertilizer to a plant, this method induces
healing and growth with nutrition verses suppressing a symptom with a drug.
NRT allows nutritional balance to be restored that is specific to your
biochemistry and needs. The more accurate one can be the better the results
will be. The use of Applied Kinesiology allows for accurate tuning of your
body.
Much like a mechanic tunes an engine Dr. Mark can tune your body. Most nutrition programs are short term (2-6 months), include recommendations for long-term maintenance, and include fundamental dietary guidelines.
