What exactly is DESIGNED CLINICAL NUTRITION? 

First of all, Designed Clinical Nutrition is not ‘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). Please ask about our audiotape: "The Whole Truth About Vitamins," for an entertaining, in-depth explanation of this aspect of vitamins and other nutritional supplements. 

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. So, if we were looking for a food high in Vitamin A., carrots might be one of our choices. 

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 - not from chemicals re-engineered in a laboratory to look like one little part of the Vitamin A Complex that has erroneously been labeled as "Vitamin A." 

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". If they are not derived from whole foods, they often make you even more deficient and nutritionally out-of-balance. They do not contain all of the co-factors found in nature that make the vitamins work. 

So-called "scientific research," done with these poor quality substitutes, repeatedly "proves" that vitamins don’t do much good for anyone! Can you imagine who pays for these "researches"? 

"Designed Clinical Nutrition" is exactly that: designed (especially prepared based on a specific plan) Clinical (pertaining to the results gotten in clinical use or actual practice on huge numbers of patients over many years) nutrition (real food, designed by nature to enable the body to repair itself and grow healthfully). 

It is whole food in a tablet, capsule or powder, concentrated in a vacuum, cold-process system that preserve all of the active enzymes and vital components that make it work as the Creator 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 were found on your individual Nutrition Response Testing analysis. These are nutrients you are simply not getting, or not assimilation, in your current diet. 

These deficiencies may be due to your past personal eating habits and routines, but it is for sure due, in some large extent, to the lack or quality in the foods commercially available in grocery stores or restaurants today.
