NUTRIENT SUPPLEMENT QUESTIONNAIRE (NSQ)
VERY VERY IMPORTANT OPEN PDF ICON, PRINT AND COMPLETE NSQ QUESTIONNAIRE BEFORE READING THIS EVALUATION WEBPAGE. OTHERWISE, EVALUATION MAY INFLUENCE YOUR ANSWERS!
MILD SYMPTOMS TOTAL SCORE = 5 POINTS OR LESS
If your total score is 5 points or less, it is not necessary, at this time, to change your current practices, unless you are on drugs (prescribed or frequently taking over-the-counter drugs to manage your symptoms). A score of 5 points or less does not apply here if your symptoms are being suppressed by drugs.
Not Currently Taking Food Supplements or Drugs? If you are not supplementing your diet with vitamins, minerals or other food supplements, you do not need to start. Be sure to read below regarding Re-Evaluations Every Three Months.
Currently Taking Food Supplements or Drugs? If you are currently taking food supplements and not on any drugs (over-the-counter or prescribed), then a score of 5 points or less indicates that you should continue doing what you are doing. However, if you are, also, currently on drugs, then follow the instructions for total scores of 15 to 30 points or 30 points or higher. Why? Because drugs deplete the body of vitamins and minerals, cause toxicity, suppress symptoms so obviously, your current scores cannot reflect your true scores when on drugs. If not on any drugs (over-the-counter or prescribed), rechecking every three months will monitor when you do need to begin supplementing your diet. We live in a toxic world, and toxic substances (chemicals, metals, dyes, food colorings, synthetic clothing, etc.) deplete the body of nutrients, which require periodic (twice yearly) full body internal detoxification to cleanse these substances from cells and tissue. Also, unless you are eating a variety of organic foods, the foods you are eating are nutrient-deficient and in time, your body will begin to show signs/symptoms of nutrient deficiencies and supplementation will be necessary, in both of these cases.
Be sure to read the section on this web page titled, Wellness and Disease Prevention, as it also applies to your total scores.
Re-Evaluation Every Three Months Because of factors
outside of your control, such as air pollution outside your home
(assuming you have home air purifiers), as well as factors you have not
yet improved, such as Stressors, Toxicity, poor scores on your Dietary Evaluation
Overview (DEO), etc., whether you are or are not currently taking food supplements, you should complete the Nutrient Supplement
Questionnaire at least every three months to monitor your total
scores and follow the instructions in
the sections of this web page, depending upon which applies to
your total score at that time.
If a Nutrient Supplement Re-Evaluation in the future
indicate a score over 5 points, then you must immediately improve your
score (returning to 5 points or less) by following the instructions in
the other sections of this web page, depending upon which applies to
your total score at that time, as part of your overall health maintenance routine.
MODERATE SYMPTOMS TOTAL SCORE = 6 to 15 POINTS
If your total score is 6 to 15 points, this indicates you are currently experiencing symptoms of nutrient deficiencies, however, depending upon which symptoms comprised this score, you may be able to reduce this score, i.e., improve the adverse affects of these deficiencies, simply, by contact Dr. Smith for the the following:
complete a 30-day Full Body Cleanse or Detoxification Program. Dr. Smith's therapeutic Full Body Detoxification Program cleanse the liver, gall bladder, bile duct, stomach, kidneys, bladder, lymphatics, small and large intestines. Over-the-counter cleanses, generally, focus on detoxifying the large intestines only, which is also called the colon or bowels. If the other areas listed above are not cleansed with the large intestines, their waste will settle downward and the intestines will need to be detoxified, again, and much sooner than would be normal.
Repeat this Full Body Cleanse every Spring and Fall to maintain optimal scores (i.e., 5 points or less). Over time, the adverse affects of Stressors and Toxicity will cause nutrient deficiencies and toxicity at a cellular and tissue level, eventually, leading to biochemical imbalances that adversely affect organ/gland function, which then causes diseases. For more information, read the web pages titled, "Stress Opinionnaire," and "Toxicity Questionnaire."
email a request for a copy of our Maintenance Supplement Program, so you may order "whole food" vitamins and minerals, as needed, to take daily to bring your total score to 5 or less. Supplements sold to the public are either synthetic or isolated vitamins, not whole food supplements. Also, the human digestive system was not designed to digest and metabolic mega-dosages of isolated vitamins, such as 1000 mg. of Ascorbic Acid (which is only the outer coating of the whole food Vitamin C Complex)
Be sure to read the section on this web page titled, Wellness and Disease Prevention, as it also applies to your total scores.
Re-Evaluation Every Three Months Because of factors
outside of your control, such as air pollution outside your home
(assuming you have home air purifiers), as well as factors you have not
yet improved, such as Stressors, Toxicity, poor scores on your Dietary Evaluation
Overview (DEO), etc., you should complete the Nutrient Supplement
Questionnaire at least every three months to monitor your total
scores and follow the instructions in
the sections of this web page, depending upon which applies to
your total score at that time.
Special Note: If you have followed the above instructions and your Nutrient Supplement Re-Evaluation has improved, but have not improved to the score of 5 or less, follow the instructions for the score for 15 to 30 points.Why?
Because either the symptoms you are experiencing are not listed on the Nutrient Supplement Questionnaire or
the areas of the body experiencing "clinical" level deficiencies, which can only be corrected through therapeutic, whole food supplements, are at a stage where their symptoms are few, mild or infrequent, so your scores are not yet representing the current state of your deficiencies.
Remember, Symptoms are not a reliable source for determine your vitamin needs or severity of your health challenges. For example, some people have few symptoms just before they are diagnosed with cancer.
Early Detection is not Preventive Health Care
Early Detection is diagnosing a disease sooner, than later.
Preventive health care is correcting your nutrient deficiencies before they progress to the disease state, in the first place.
If you missed this opportunity, preventive health care is also restoring health before the disease reaches the point of no return, where it is too late to do so.
NUTRIENT SUPPLEMENT EVALUATION \
INSTRUCTIONS
With your total score, located the section on this web page that applies to your score. It is, also, important to read the Wellness and Disease Prevention section as this applies to all scores.
Wellness and Disease Prevention
If you are interested in wellness and disease
prevention, you will contact Dr. Smith to order a clinical nutrition
analysis of your nutritional biochemistry to correct the vitamin
deficiencies, no matter what your score is, even if zero or less than 5 points. Why?
First, because being symptom free or having a few
symptoms does not mean you are healthy and, thus, obtaining a clinical nutrition
analysis of your biochemistry, gives you the opportunity to improve
your deficiencies and biochemical imbalances before they cause
dysfunctions in organs, glands or body systems. Thereby, preventing the
progression of these dysfunctions to diseases in the organs, glands or
body systems experiencing long-term deficiencies and toxicity.
Secondly, the Nutrient Supplement Questionnaire does not list very symptom of nutrient deficiencies.
It provides an overview of some of the most frequent symptoms, not all,
symptoms of nutrient deficiencies, which is sufficient to determine if your symptoms have
progressed to the state that warrant clinical nutrition testing of
your biochemistry (blood, urine, saliva, or hair, etc.), at this time, to determine your specific vitamins or other nutrient supplements requirements.
AT RISK SYMPTOMS TOTAL SCORE = 31 OR MORE POINTS
If your total score is 31 or more points, you are currently at risk of developing one or more disease or you have already been diagnosed. In other words, your long-term clinical and sub-clinical vitamin deficiencies are so severe that they will soon, if they have not already, progressed to the disease stage in the areas of the body experiencing these deficiencies. You must take action at once to restore your health, before it is too late for your body to heal itself. Even if you think it is too late, it may not be. However, to not take action, now, to improve your nutrient deficiencies, biochemical imbalances and organ, gland and body system dysfunctions, in time, it will be too late.
It is important to read the Nutrition Education web pages that are provided for subscribers to understand why it may not be too late. One key point being that when you are informed that their is no cure for your disease, remember this may simply mean that drugs and surgery cannot help you.
When your score is 30 points, or higher, professional guidance from a Naturopathic Doctor and/or Clinical Nutritionist, like Dr. Smith, is not an option, it is a necessity. Trying to help yourself by taking over-the-counter or mail order vitamins, may give you some temporary relief, just like massage, chiropractics, acupuncture, medicine, or other therapies, however, healing at a cellular and tissue level can only be obtained through a clinical nutrition analysis of your biochemistry and following a therapeutic, whole food supplement and dietary program designed personally for you, based upon your own test results.
Because toxicity is a huge factor in disease, starting with a 30-day Full Body Cleanse or Detoxification Program, though equivalent to a three-month program taking therapeutic, whole food supplements, may or may not be the best place to start. This will be determined by your test results. When your score is 30 or more, your body may not be able to handle starting with a full body cleanse.
Be sure to read the section on this web page titled, Wellness and Disease Prevention, as it also applies to your total scores.
Re-Evaluation Every Three Months If for any reason, you choose to postpone taking action right now to obtain a clinical nutrition analysis of your biochemistry, and because of factors
outside of your control, such as air pollution outside your home
(assuming you have home air purifiers), as well as factors you have not
yet improved, such as Stressors, Toxicity, poor scores on your Dietary Evaluation
Overview (DEO), etc., you should complete the Nutrient Supplement
Questionnaire at least every three months, to monitor your total
scores and follow the instructions in
the sections of this web page, depending upon which applies to
your total score, as soon as possible. Delaying is not advisable because a score of 30 or more indicates you are already at risk.
The Nutrient Supplement Questionnaire is not necessary, however, when you have ordered a clinical nutrition analysis of your biochemistry, as all factors affecting your health will be addressed and monitored in order of priority.
SEVERE SYMPTOMS TOTAL SCORE = 16 to 30 POINTS
If your total score is 16 to 30 points, this indicates you are currently suffering from both "clinical" and "sub-clinical" deficiencies. Therefore, it is important for you to contact Dr. Smith for the the following:
a therapeutic, whole food supplement program is required to correct "clinical" and "sub-clinical" deficiencies. Clinical and sub-clinical deficiencies are cellular level deficiencies, which adversely affect the balance of your biochemistry and cause organ and gland dysfunctions,. If not corrected will, then, lead to disease. If you have already been diagnosed with one or more diseases, you are already there, and this step is even more urgent.
clinical and sub-clinical deficiencies cannot be corrected by diet changes alone, taking maintenance whole food supplements, or taking supplements sold to the public. They require clinically-formulated, whole food, therapeutic supplements available only through nutritional health care practitioners, like Dr. Smith, which are dispensed based upon a clinical nutrition analysis of your biochemistry, i.e., the laboratory tests of your blood, urine, saliva, hair, etc. Tests ordered are selected based upon the areas of the body producing the symptoms, which comprised the total points on your Nutrient Supplement Questionnaire.
starting with a 30-day Full Body Cleanse or Detoxification Program is equivalent to a three-month program taking therapeutic, whole food supplements, therefore, an excellent place to start. Ideally, repeating this cleanse every Spring and Fall will assist you in maintaining optimal scores (i.e., 5 points or less), once attained.
Be sure to read the section on this web page titled, Wellness and Disease Prevention, as it also applies to your total scores.
Re-Evaluation Every Three Months Because of factors
outside of your control, such as air pollution outside your home
(assuming you have home air purifiers), as well as factors you have not
yet improved, such as Stressors, Toxicity, poor scores on your Dietary Evaluation
Overview (DEO), etc., you should complete the Nutrient Supplement
Questionnaire at least every three months to monitor your total
scores and follow the instructions in
the sections of this web page, depending upon which applies to
your total score at that time.
This is not necessary, however, when you have ordered a clinical nutrition analysis of your biochemistry, as all factors affecting your health will be addressed and monitored in order of priority.

You may have noticed Google is now placing a padlock icon to the left of some website addresses as an attempt to designate "secure" vs. "unsecure" website. They are particularly interested in adding padlocks to website to assure the public that websites with shopping carts are secure for financial transactions, and not so much as a way to say the website is free of malware.
Our website does not have a shopping cart because it is what is termed an "information only" website. So our website has no need for a padlock. Regardless of the reason, they are unable to add the padlock to our secure website because it is an older web design from the 1990's. Therefore, no matter what warnings they may give you, rest assured that this website is secure.
