I suffer from multiple health issues such as skin eruptions, joint pain, and others, and have been going from doctor to doctor only to find that none of them has been able to tell me exactly what’s wrong, much less come up with an effective treatment. Can you suggest a form of alterative therapy that might be beneficial?

I sympathize with your frustration in trying to find a solution for your multiple health issues. It’s estimated that anywhere from 45-60% of the general population struggles with an extraordinary range of symptoms whose causes can’t be really identified. Apparently you are one of them.

Most Americans consume processed foods and it is difficult to identify which of the many foods you regularly consume may be causing your symptoms, or the specific natural or artificial compounds contained in any of these foods. Many health conditions may be the result of food sensitivities and the lack of specific nutrients not found in your diet. The food Americans consume accounts for approximately 60% of all undiagnosed conditions according to Breneman’s book “Type of Food Allergy Testing” and according to Gaby’s article published in the Alternative Medicine Review.

Fortunately, Nutrition Response Testing is now available to patients to determine what specific stressor(s) affect your body. Once this is determined, elimination of the offending stressor(s) and the supplementation of specific nutrients seems to be beneficial in multitude health conditions.

I recommend that you find a chiropractor who is also trained in Nutrition Response Testing and begin your journey to better health.
