Designed Clinical Nutrition
Aren’t all vitamins and supplements the same?
Absolutely Not! Designed Clinical Nutrition is not like your everyday ‘over-the-counter’ vitamins. Over-the-counter vitamins are pharmaceutically engineered chemical fractions of vitamin structures reproduced in a laboratory. They are not “whole food” and the body does not actually recognize these as anything even vaguely beneficial (to put it mildly). Because they are not made from whole foods, over-the-counter vitamins lack the essential synergistic elements normally present in WHOLE foods.
An example of a whole food could be carrots. Carrots are high in Vitamin A Complex. A “complex” is something made up of many different parts that work together. Synthetic vitamin A does not contain the whole “Vitamin A Complex” found in nature. They synthesize the one component, beta-carotene and call that Vitamin A. The same is true with Ascorbic Acid which is only one tiny fraction of Vitamin C.

If one actually were deficient in any of the components of Vitamin A Complex, one would be wise to seek out a supplement that was made from whole foods that were rich in this complex – such as carrots – not from chemicals re-engineered in a laboratory to look like one minuscule fragment of the Vitamin A Complex that has erroneously been labeled as “Vitamin A.”
What exactly is DESIGNED CLINICAL NUTRITION?
Designed Clinical Nutrition is exactly that:
Designed : Especially prepared and based on a specific plan. Clinical: Pertaining to the results gotten in clinical use (In this case- actual practice on 10s of thousands of patients over many years) Nutrition: Real Food, designed by nature, to enable the body to nourish and repair itself and grow healthfully.
It is whole foods in a tablet, capsule or powder that are concentrated in a vacuum, cold-process system that preserves all of the active enzymes and vital components that make it work as Mother Nature intended. These real food supplements have been designed to match the needs of the body, as determined by the positive response shown when tested against the active Nutrition Response Testing reflexes that are found on your individual Nutrition Response Testing analysis. These are nutrients you are simply not getting, or not assimilating, in your current diet.
These deficiencies may be due to your past personal eating habits but it is for sure due, in some large extent, to the lack of quality in the foods commercially available in grocery stores or restaurants today.
What about “Natural” Vitamins?
Vitamins that are being used all over today generally only need to have a small percentage of their actual content derived from natural sources to be labeled “natural”. The fact is if your vitamins are not derived from whole foods they often make you even more deficient and nutritionally “out-of-balance.” They can create other health problems because they do not contain all of the co-factors found in nature that make the vitamins work.
Inherently flawed scientific studies done with these fractionated, synthetic vitamins repeatedly “prove” that vitamins don’t do much good for anyone! That is completely true when you are talking about these pharmaceutically-produced chemical compounds. With whole food, live vitamins or supplements its an entirely different story.
SUMMARY
1. Through an analysis of your body’s reflexes, we help you to determine the exact nutrients you need to supplement your diet, in order to bring about balance and better health.
2. We make these highly concentrated therapeutic formulations available to you in tablets, capsules or in powdered form to “supplement” your current diet. That’s why they are called “food supplements.”
3. Since the supplements are meant to supplement and restore nutrients your body hasn’t been getting through your normal diet and eating habits. The supplements and Designed Clinical Nutrition program are only one part of your full Natural Health Improvement Program. Depending on your individual situation, we will also require that you make some specific changes in your diet, eating and exercise habits so you can fully restore your health and maintain it for life.
How are these whole food supplements produced?
One example of a Designed Clinical Nutrition supplement that we use is called Catalyn. This product is produced by starting with a wide variety of carefully chosen organically grown vegetables, taking the water and fiber out using a vacuum, low heat process – without heating or cooking the vegetables, and then utilizing the concentrated food to make a bottle of Standard Process brand Catalyn Tablets.
The key to this whole procedure is the way it is done, using the Standard Process method devised by Dr. Royal Lee.
1. Standard Process’ nutrients are derived from plants grown on their own farms, in soil free of pesticides – and no chemicals are ever used. The PhDs check the soil before the seeds are sown, to make sure of the fertility of the soil – even the weeding is done by hand.
2. The machinery involved in the processing of these products is made of glass and stainless steel only.
3. 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. They have a very long shelf life without preservatives of any kind.
Your vitality, health and energy are derived from live food. Most foods today are dead – or are not really foods at all – they’re highly processed pseudo-foods like boxed cereals, canned vegetables, soda pop, “convenient” food, etc.
Anyone can easily see the difference between these dead, devitalized, pseudo-foods with synthetic or isolated vitamins and nourishing, live real food supplemented with whole-food based Designed Clinical Nutrition.
There is a great deal of technology and know-how behind what we do. Having been designed through decades of clinical use on tens of thousands of patients, and on patients from many different types of health care practitioners, you can be assured that Nutrition Response Testing is capable of evaluating and solving your health concerns.
A complete Nutrition Response Testing™ analysis can be done on each patient on each subsequent visit, thereby revealing the next layers of dysfunction so these can also be addressed and corrected. In this way, each patient gets a completely individualized handling, 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 falls open.
By following the correct sequence as revealed through Nutrition Response Testing, you don’t “shot-gun” your diet or supplements. With a correctly done Nutrition Response Testing analysis, we can determine the correct food supplements for you – designed to give your body the best possible chance of getting well and staying that way.
It is possible to reverse disease and achieve true health. Many people we see in our practice 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 (chemical, microscopic, or otherwise).
The good news is that with Nutrition Response Testing and Designed Clinical Nutrition, it can be possible to reverse the process and achieve Total Health Restoration. Schedule an appointment today to see if you are a Nutrition Response Testing case!
