What is involved in actually getting the process of the Hauser Diet Typing? First of all, you need to be a patient of Caring Medical and Dr. Hauser. So, you would call our office and make an appointment with Dr. Hauser for a new patient consultation. Some people might say that I don’t want to do that and I just want to do DietTyping. The benefit of actually coming to natural medicine specialists is that he is going to look at your overall health in addition to figuring out what diet you need. I don’t know about you, but I would want to know is there anything else I need to be doing? Are there any certain lab tests that I need as I am aging? Are my hormones the right level? And what I need to do to stay in the most optimal health.
He is going to give you a full nutritional consultation as well as a natural medicine consultation. After you do that, he will give you the recommended test that he thinks you should need and obviously that would be diet typing. You come into the office fasting, so you have not eaten any food since the night before. You can drink water but not eat any food. You would go over to our lab and our lab technician will be waiting for you and she will draw your blood. It is going to be some tubes of blood and then the glucose tolerance portion of test will involve some finger stick blood sugar tests. During that time you will be talking with her about how you feel with food and any kind of problems you have with eating, digestion, any of those types of things. She has some detailed questions that she will be asking you to help us put it all together and come up with your Diet Type. That whole process takes about ninety minutes after that is finished you are allowed to go off and have some lunch because you have not eaten anything for a good number of hours. Then we will be putting your test results together, it usually takes a couple days to get all the lab results back and then we will put it together and come up with your Hauser Diet Type.
Now there are five different Hauser Diet Types the Lion, the Otter, the Bear, the Monkey, and the Giraffe. Those range in the amount of protein, carbohydrates, and fat. Where the Lion is the highest protein diet and the Giraffe is the highest carbohydrate containing diet, the Bear is the middle of the road diet and the other two are in between. We will come up with what your results are, put together a nice packet for you including a DVD on some tips to help you follow the diet, as well as give you a copy of the “Hauser Diet Book” which can provide you with a lot of recipe ideas and a lot more information. After you have that whole process done you will come back to the office and review all the test results with Dr. Hauser and we will get you started on the road feeling better on the right Hauser Diet.
