b
When attempting to find the proper nutrition to support an organ or gland, it is best to test the muscle (s) _______ with that organ or gland
Associated
If there are numerous nutritional substances that will cause a weak muscle to test strong, use the product that dramatically ___________
Relieves NL tenderness
If a holding challenge forces an organ further into lesion, when will a non-associated indicator muscle weaken
During the holding challenge, but not after
If a holding challenge forces an organ further into lesion, when will an associated muscle weaken
During the holding challenge and for some time after the challenge is removed
Normal axillary temperature, when taken first thing in the morning before arising is
36.5-36.8deg Celsius
In males it is generally adequate to record basal temperature for ____________
In females of child-bearing age, basal temperature should be taken for ____________
One week
One menstrual cycle
The thyroid is
a) inhibited by oestrogen
c) stimulated by oestrogen
a
The thyroid and adrenals share a precursor. What is it
Tyrosine
The thymus has an alarm point that is not a classical one, but has been determined clinically in Applied Kinesiology. Where is it
CV18, three sun above the tip of the zyphoid
How do we diagnose whether the thymus or adrenals are primary
Therapy localise the sartorius NL for infraspinatus and vice versa
What is the best position to diagnose for lymphatic congestion
20deg retrograde position
In this position, how do we determine that lymphatic congestion is causing the indicator weakness
Have the patient raise arms above the head
What effect does this (13 above) have
The weakened indicator muscle immediately becomes strong
What muscle is involved in retrograde lymphatic technique
Pectoralis minor
What is the test position for right lymphatic duct technique
Patient flexes right arm to 90deg and flexes the neck until chin approximates chest
What auscultation abnormality is associated with a congested liver
Loud second heart sound over the tricuspid valve region
If you suspect that a patient has a congested or sluggish liver, what precautionary test would you apply before prescribing B vitamin supplementation
Test if the vitamin B supplement weakens the pectoralis major sternal
Vitamin B & G differ in that one group is nerve stimulating and the other is nerve relaxing. Which is which
B are nerve stimulating
G are nerve relaxing
