I’ve been seeing a lot of Hidden Hyper Organs lately in my nutritional counseling practice. So I wanted to provide an explanation  of this phenomenon.

Hidden Hyper Organs are a non-medical phenomenon that we observe within the realm of Nutrition Response Testing. Typically the person comes in with a relatively easy-to-handle health concern…or at least it looks that way on the surface. They may have fatigue from the beginning (or it can develop later). They might have digestive issues. Or maybe some hormonal-type issues (like hot flashes). Often there’s a sense of anxiety or the feeling they want to jump out of their own skin. These people are often highly functional…they have learned to just keep going in spite of their bothersome symptoms.

There is no clear indicator right away that a person has a Hidden Hyper Organ. What happens is that they respond only marginally if at all to the appropriate standard Nutrition Response Testing program. Visit after visit it will appear that there is layer after layer of issues to clear away and the person will just not progress. This is a frustrating situation for both the patient and also for the practitioner! We are used to hitting the nail on the head quickly and then just monitoring people as they continue to improve. Lack of improvement is sometimes a clear indicator that there is some hidden situation that we need to uncover.

I recently have seen some dramatic Hidden Hyper Organ cases. One gentleman recently was suffering from the symptoms of panic attacks. In spite of my best efforts he was not improving. His symptoms were actually getting worse. He was having trouble sleeping and his breathing was becoming labored. Finally around visit 7 I checked him for Hidden Hyper Organs and I found his brain was completely exhausted! His brain was testing fine on the surface, but when placed under stress his “brain energy” was just on overload! Like the organ was saying “I got nothing” and was running on fumes. After I handled that situation with the appropriate nutritional support, the next visit he was calm. He was fine! The panic had left him. Now he is just getting better. Those are amazing results!

I have a theory that people with a Hidden Hyper Organ situation are on their way to a crash. It’s like we’re heading off the person developing a severe condition or disease. Many of these people have had several lab tests that have all come back normal. I always say “Thank God they didn’t find anything. That gives us time to fix this before they do find something.” Here is a list of severe chronic diseases you could be diagnosed with. Believe me, you want to solve your health problems before they turn in to one of these.
