What Can I Expect From Nutritional Counseling?

Dr. Jere & Dr. Philip studied with some of the top nutritionists and uses advanced techniques to put together the best diet for your needs.

During your first visit, Dr. Jere & Dr. Philip will ask about your diet and reasons for seeking nutritional counseling. After reviewing your medical history, he’ll ask about your lifestyle to get an idea of your physical activity levels and sleep patterns.

Muscle testing is included as part of your initial nutritional consultation. This process identifies weak muscles caused by harmful foods or substances and nutritional deficiencies.

During muscle testing, Dr. Jere & Dr. Philip applies pressure to areas of the body to test your strength. When muscles resist pressure, they’re labeled “strong” or “locked.” If the result is “weak” or “unlocked” muscles there might be an underlying issue.
