The optimum personalized plan of Nutrition Response Testing
For more than three months (as of this writing), I’ve been seeing Dr. Michele Munnich of Absolutely Divine Wellness in Viera-Rockledge, FL as a Nutrition Response Testing client to find the diet and supplements appropriate for me–and it’s working. I’m achieving results!
Personalized medicine
About twenty years ago, I’d read that the best emerging medicine would be customized to each person, and that’s exactly what Nutrition Response Testing is–personalized.
One of the main components of Nutrition Response Testing is muscle testing, which involves using the client’s own body, typically an arm, to act as a feedback loop in order for the doctor to assess your strength or weakness to a particular substance. One by one substances are tested against your body in a way that both you can see and feel, and your doctor can visibly see, what’s good for you.
Muscle testing is not new to me. I’ve had previous chiropractors and naturopaths use it to determine what items I needed to detox from my body or what homeopathic remedies to take, so I was elated to find that Dr. Michele Munnich uses it in conjunction with other “hard science” monitors to analyze your specific situation and put you on a plan to correct any imbalances and encourage your body’s ability to self correct.

So far, I’ve detoxed from heavy metals such as aluminum and arsenic. Such heavy metals can be ingested from eating contaminated fish/seafood, or even some plants. I’ve learned that Brussels sprouts uptake arsenic and I’ve had to reduce my consumption of them.
Moreover, during the process of testing, Dr. Michele found issues that I had not known I’d had. While writing my new book, I researched these issues and found that when a person is toxic, with a heavy metal toxicity in the body, it can cause the electrical impulses that normally flow, to become disrupted. The heart, endocrine system, and other body systems, glands, organs, and cellular communication can all be put at risk when the body’s electrical system is not working at its optimum.
I went in with only a couple of issues, but I’ve found that just by going in to Dr. Michele’s office weekly and chatting about my food log and having her adjust my supplements (because your body’s needs will change week to week), that this has made me more accountable with my diet and helped me easily release nearly 20 pounds! At first, I’d kind of grumbled about having to go every week, as it’s a bit of a drive for me, but I now see the importance of checking the body’s responses, and soon, I’ll only be going in every two weeks–eventually, it will only be monthly visits.
For me, adhering to a specific diet or way of eating took more than the 21 days you hear people talk about for establishing a habit. I need the longer period of time to integrate and actualize new ways–and I write about the Mind-Body-Spirit-Soul of that in my new book, Take It Upon Yourself to Live a Wholly Vibrant Life. I also include more in the book about my work with Dr. Michele, and all I’ve done in the last 13 years that’s brought me to this point in time in regard to diet. Yes, there are so many to choose from!
As for what makes the Nutrition Response Testing optimum personalized plan? Each week, Dr. Michele actually tests my body with each Standard Process supplement (individually or as a group), along with any other supplement I bring in, to see if my body needs it, and if so, how much. As I wrote in my book, there’s much we can do for ourselves on our own, as we know our own body better than any doctor. However, when it comes to ascertaining proper dosages, it’s advantageous to visit with someone who can check you with muscle testing.
UPDATE: I have nearly completed my one year of Nutrition Response Testing and though my weight has fluctuated (due also to the emotions during the time of my father’s death), I am very happy to have released 20 pounds and several inches from my body. As well, the issues I went to Dr. Michele about have cleared.
