What is Switching? And How it's Keeping You Stuck in a Cycle of Frustration!

Switching refers to when your body goes in the opposite direction from what is expected—essentially, when the nervous system is in a state of confusion. This confusion can affect normal bodily functions, leading to symptoms and problems that feel out of control.

A classic sign of switching is when a person on the correct nutritional program feels worse instead of better or experiences a rollercoaster effect—feeling better one day, worse the next, then better again. This fluctuation is a sign that the body’s natural healing processes are not working as they should.

How Switching Affects You:

When your body is switched, it can make it feel like your health journey is a constant up-and-down battle. You may start a new nutritional program with hope and excitement, only to find that your symptoms get worse, or you experience a cycle of feeling better and then worse and then better and so. This can be incredibly frustrating, especially when you’re doing everything you can to improve your health, and it may leave you wondering why your body isn’t responding as expected.

Why Does Switching Happen?

Switching is often caused by one or more of the following stressors: food sensitivities, chemical or heavy metal toxicities, immune stress, and nutritional deficiencies. These stressors can cause confusion within your nervous system, disrupting normal bodily functions and preventing the healing process from moving forward.

Case Story: "Sarah’s" Journey

Sarah came to us feeling frustrated after following a nutritional program but experiencing a constant rollercoaster effect. Some days she felt fantastic—more energy, less bloating, and better digestion. But then, the next day, her symptoms would come back with full force, leaving her exhausted and confused.

Through NRT (Nutrition Response Testing™), we identified that Sarah's body was switched due to sensitivities to certain foods and a hidden immune stress that wasn’t being addressed. When we cleared these stressors and adjusted her nutritional plan, Sarah’s body began to stabilise. The rollercoastering stopped, and she began feeling consistently better as her body was able to heal and adapt properly.
