WHO WE ARE
DR. AMY VOWLES
DR. AMY'S HEALTH STORY
Hi, I'm Amy Vowles, and I am delighted to be offering Nutrition and Functional Wellness services to the Des Moines Metro area. Because of the healing I have found through Nutrition Response Testing I feel healthier than I have in my life, but it wasn't always this way.
​
I spent over a year of my life battling mystery illnesses that doctors just couldn't explain. The minute I would get one health issue under control, another would follow. It seemed like no one could help me.
​
Then Nutrition Response Testing helped me get my life back. In a very short period of time, health issues I feared I would never get rid of began to disappear. I had energy again, and most importantly, I felt like I could live my life again!
​
Now I have the honor of being able to help other people regain their health as I have mine, through Nutrition Response Testing.

KELSEY DOPHEIDE
KELSEY'S HEALTH STORY
I am Kelsey Dopheide, and I am thrilled to have the opportunity to help patients improve their health as I have mine. This practice is very personal to me, because it saved my health!
I began my journey with Nutrition Response testing first as a patient. I have dealt with chronic health issues my whole life. It seemed like the minute I would get one health issue under control, another was arising. My health was deteriorating fast, leaving me with an autoimmune disease, but no answers.
I didn’t know what my future would look like and I knew I wanted to find a real solution. One that would really get to the root of my problems, and not just cover up the symptoms. The doctors I saw said there was no cure for my condition, just medications with a list of side effects longer than my arm. That answer wasn’t good enough for me!
I did my own research and found Nutrition Response Testing. I finally found the answers to getting my health back. I feel great, and the symptoms have gone away. I can proudly say I live a life free of medication.
After finding the solution to my health issues, I want to be able to help so many find their second chance and healthy living with Nutrition Response Testing! I spent so much time feeling alone in my healthcare with no answers, I don’t want others to feel that way. I want to be an ally on your health journey and that is what drives me to better myself as a practitioner every day.

TESTIMONIALS
What Patients are Saying
"Before Nutrition Response Testing I was having hot flashes, night sweats and I wasn't sleeping. Now, the hot flashes are gone, the night sweats are gone, I'm falling asleep faster and I'm staying asleep!"
Heather W.
"I reached out to Amy because I was having ongoing and incredibly painful acid reflux. Amy quickly and professionally identified my issue and gave me a complete (and reasonably priced) regimen of natural supplements to get my gut back in order. After only two weeks I started to notice a difference!"
Danny B.
"My daughter has suffered from eczema for over 14 years. Just a few weeks after visiting Amy and implementing the diet changes and specific supplements, she began to see improvement. After 4 months, the eczema is gone. You can’t even see where it was!"
