Understanding Your Results

Why This Process Matters
The body is designed to move toward balance when the right conditions are in place.
RBTI (Reams Biological Theory of Ionization) was developed as a way to measure how well the body is using energy, minerals, and nutrients — and to guide supportive changes over time. Dr. Carey Reams often emphasized that the goal was not to “fix” the body, but to remove interference and restore proper function so the body could do what it was designed to do.

This is why RBTI is not a one-time test.

It is a continuum — a way of observing how the body responds as support is applied, burdens are reduced, and systems begin to recalibrate. When recommendations are followed and patterns are tracked over time, the body often shows measurable improvement in efficiency, resilience, and overall function.
This report represents a starting point — a snapshot of where your body is today — and a guide for how we move forward thoughtfully, layer by layer.

What This Assessment Is (and Isn’t)

Your body is constantly communicating what it needs. RBTI (Reams Biological Theory of Ionization) and bioenergetic scanning help us evaluate how your body is functioning right now so we can make informed, supportive changes.

This report is not a medical diagnosis and does not replace your physician’s care.

Instead, it offers a functional interpretation — we look at patterns, trends, and early stress signals that help explain why you feel the way you do and what your body needs first.
Think of it like a dashboard in your car:
the goal is to course-correct early, before a small imbalance becomes a larger breakdown.

What RBTI Measures

Using small urine and saliva samples, RBTI helps us evaluate:
  • Energy Efficiency — how effectively your body converts food into usable energy
  • Mineral Balance — hydration, electrolytes, tissue repair, and resilience
  • Digestive Strength — how well nutrients are broken down and absorbed
  • Organ & System Stress — especially liver, kidneys, pancreas, and gut
  • Detox Load & Detox Capacity
  • Nervous System Stress Patterns
RBTI also helps us estimate where patterns may be headed over the next 6–12 months if no changes are made. This is why it is a directional tool, not a diagnostic one.

How We Prioritize What to Focus On

Your body can only rebalance in the order it chooses — not all at once.
For this phase, we prioritize:
  1. Your primary symptoms (what’s impacting daily life most)
  2. The biggest system stressors contributing to those symptoms
  3. The first steps most likely to improve efficiency, digestion, minerals, or stress response
As we re-test, we build on progress and address deeper layers with greater precision.

What Bioenergetic Scanning Shows

Your body is electrical — organs, hormones, and emotional centers carry measurable energetic patterns. Bioenergetic scanning helps us identify:
  • Areas of energetic stress or overload
  • Systems asking for support (not diagnosis)
  • Connections between emotional stress and physiology
  • Environmental influences affecting resilience
A stressed signal does not equal disease.
It indicates a system that may benefit from targeted support.

Collaborative Care & Medical Oversight

This report reflects functional assessment and interpretation, focusing on patterns and system support rather than diagnosing diseases. While I am not a medical doctor, your care is provided within a collaborative framework that includes medical oversight when appropriate. I work alongside Dr. Matt Davis; whose orthopedic and optimization practice provides an added clinical perspective when needed.

This integrative approach helps ensure your care is:
  • Thoughtful
  • Grounded
  • Aligned medically and functionally
  • Focused on long-term balance rather than quick fixes

Our Goal

Together, our goal is to help your body respond the way it was designed to by:
  • Providing the right inputs (food, minerals, hydration, nervous system support)
  • Reducing burdens that slow progress
  • Supporting the systems that need help first
  • Measuring change over time so we stay on the right path
This is a process, not a single event.
One layer at a time.
One adjustment at a time.
One measurable step forward at a time.



Key findings and Follow up 

Top Patterns Identified

Pattern 1:
Chronic inflammatory and histamine activation pattern (MCAS + mold + gut permeability influence)
Pattern 2:
Adrenal and cortisol dysregulation with nervous system depletion
Pattern 3:
Post-gallbladder digestive and hormone metabolism strain

How These May Connect to Symptoms

These patterns help explain why you have been experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, anxiety, histamine flares, digestive discomfort, sleep disruption, and hormonal instability.
• Elevated histamine and mast cell activity can drive itching, flushing, anxiety, and nervous system hypersensitivity.
• Adrenal dysregulation contributes to cortisol spikes, sleep disruption, and “wired but tired” or deep exhaustion phases.
• Gallbladder removal affects bile flow, which influences digestion, fat absorption, hormone recycling, and detoxification capacity.
• Mold and fungal biomarkers increase immune load, impacting energy, inflammation, and histamine reactions.

Together, these systems create a terrain where the body feels inflamed, reactive, and energy-depleted — even when progress is being made.

Primary Focus for This Phase

This phase of care is centered on stabilization rather than aggressive detoxification.

Primary goals include:
• Calming mast cell and histamine reactivity
• Supporting adrenal recovery and cortisol rhythm
• Improving digestion and bile utilization post-surgery
• Maintaining gentle detox drainage without overload
• Strengthening gut lining and immune tolerance
This foundation allows the body to feel safe enough to continue healing and eventually release inflammation weight naturally.

Retest & Follow-Up Plan

Recommended Retest Timing

Next urine test:
4–6 weeks
Next scan:
4 weeks
(This allows enough time to see measurable terrain shifts without over-testing during nervous system recovery.)

What We Expect to See

Improvements in:
• Urea reduction (lower detox burden)
• Albumin stabilization (gut lining repair)
• Histamine and inflammatory markers
• Cortisol rhythm and adrenal response

Shifts in:
• Hormone metabolism patterns
• Mold and mycotoxin load
• Emotional and nervous system biomarkers
• Digestive efficiency post-gallbladder removal

If Numbers Change

Changes in numbers are good things. 
They help us understand how your body is responding so we can adjust support intelligently.
Healing is dynamic — numbers may rise temporarily as the body clears inflammation, mobilizes toxins, or recalibrates hormones.
Each retest provides a roadmap, not a grade.

Food Recommendations

DAILY MACRO TARGETS AND MEAL PLAN

Your macros are balanced to stabilize blood sugar, protect muscle, and support hormone and detox pathways so your body feels safe enough to release weight. 

DAILY MACRO TARGETS Calories: 1,750–1,850 kcal/day 
Protein: 120–135 g/day 
Carbohydrates: 130–150 g/day 
Fats: 65–75 g/day 

Why we are using this plan: Protein protects muscle and metabolism Moderate carbs reduce insulin resistance (not spike it) Adequate fats support hormones and bile flow Calories are high enough to prevent metabolic shutdown 

MEAL STRUCTURE (NON-NEGOTIABLE) 
3 meals per day
No snacking 
No naked carbs (see below what naked carbs means) 
Eat every 4–5 hours 

This pattern directly lowers sugar output and ureas 
What “Naked Carbs” Means: Naked carbs are carbohydrates eaten by themselves, without enough protein, fat, or fiber to slow digestion. When carbs are eaten alone, they: 
  • Spike blood sugar quickly
  • Trigger more insulin 
  • Increase fat storage 
  • Worsen insulin resistance 
  • Increase cravings and energy crashes 
For you, naked carbs directly worsen: 
  • your elevated RBTI sugar (5) 
  • Hormonal imbalance 
  • Weight retention 
  • Inflammation 
Dressed Carbs (What We Want Instead): 
  • A dressed carb is paired with protein + fat + fiber. 
  • This: Slows sugar absorption 
  • Reduces insulin spikes 
  • Improves hormone balance 
  • Supports fat loss 
Examples: Apple with nut butter 
Sweet potato with chicken and olive oil 
Rice with beef and vegetables 
Oatmeal with protein powder and nuts 
Berries with Greek yogurt 
__________________________________________ 

MEAL PLAN: BREAKFAST (30–40 g protein) 
Choose ONE daily: 
  • 2–3 eggs cooked in ghee sautéed spinach or zucchini ½ avocado 
  • Protein smoothie 1 scoop clean protein (20–25 g) ½ cup berries 1 tbsp flax or chia 
  • Water or almond milk 
  • Leftover dinner protein 4–5 oz meat vegetables 
Breakfast is mandatory even if not hungry. 

LUNCH (35–45 g protein) 
Choose ONE daily:
  • Grilled chicken bowl 5–6 oz chicken roasted broccoli or greens ½ cup quinoa or sweet potato olive oil 
  • Salmon salad 5 oz salmon mixed greens olive oil + lemon 
  • Beef & veggie plate 5 oz grass-fed beef roasted vegetables small starch portion 
DINNER (35–45 g protein) 
Choose ONE daily: 
  • Fish + vegetables 5–6 oz fish roasted zucchini, carrots, or squash 
  • Turkey or chicken vegetables optional ¼–½ cup starch 
  • Beef or lamb cooked greens drizzle olive oil 
CARB GUIDELINES (VERY IMPORTANT)
  • Carbs only with meals Never alone Prefer: Sweet potatoes Squash Quinoa Berries 
  • Avoid: Bread Pasta Sugar Liquid carbs 
HYDRATION (FAT LOSS DEPENDS ON THIS) 
  • 80–100 oz water/day
  • Add ½–¾ tsp mineral salt daily 
  • Herbal teas count only if mineralized 
AVOID (FIRST 6 WEEKS) 
  • Goody powders 
  • Alcohol 
  • Artificial sweeteners 
  • Processed snacks 
These block hormone clearance and fat loss.


Lifestyle Recommendations

Nutrition and Hydration 
A structured, whole-food meal plan emphasizing adequate protein at each meal, balanced carbohydrates, and healthy fats to stabilize blood sugar and support hormone balance. 
  • Focus on mineral-rich hydration (80–100 oz daily with added sea salt), cooked vegetables for gut support, and liver-supportive foods to enhance detoxification (see meal and food plan section for complete details) Supplement Support (Phase One) Initial focus on mineral repletion, gentle liver and gallbladder support, gut lining support, and anti-inflammatory nutrients. Supplements will be introduced gradually to avoid overwhelming detox pathways. 
  • Advanced Support Options: Based on your hydration status, detox burden, and metabolic patterns, additional supportive therapies such as IV nutrient therapy and peptide-based metabolic support may be beneficial in future phases. These therapies are designed to enhance cellular hydration, nutrient utilization, metabolic signaling, and tissue repair when layered appropriately with nutrition and lifestyle foundations. 
  • Lifestyle & Emotional Support Continue regular movement with the addition of light resistance training 2–3 times per week to build lean muscle and improve insulin sensitivity. 
  • Prioritize consistent sleep timing, stress reduction strategies, and avoidance of inflammatory over-the-counter pain medications when possible.



Supplements

Supplement Recommendations

Collagen: Choose one of the following: 

Garden of Life - Grass Fed Collagen
Vital Proteins - Widely used clinically 

Remain the same on all other supplements.
Doing IV therapy and Red Light are always good options for you as well
