    hi, I took a hiatus from studying the IRTP. I wanted to make sure that the information will continue to be accessible through login and all resources will remain on the portal. LMK and thanks.

  2. Phyllis Digilio says:

    just curious how long I will have access to all the info in the irstp program. Rather than downloading the info on my computer, I’d rather just access through your portal. Please lmk so I can best organize and thank you!!

  3. Lorri Smitley says:

    Good morning,
    I’m having problems getting some of the information. Specifically in Module 3 under the Core Contents in Nutrition when I try to open the file in the Sweet Spot program it tells me that I have the Wrong Membership Level in Unstoppable Health – https://www.unstoppablehealthcommunity.com/wrong-membership-level/?wlfrom=%2Fsweet-spot-solution%2Fm2%2F
    Thanks for your help!

    Hi, I am on the inemembers.com site trying to download the master health tracker. Once I make the copy, I go to click on Lab Results, US and it states invalid range so I can not access that file. Can you please re-attach the correct file so I can use this? I have included the screen shot to show what I mean. Thank you. Laurie

    Hi, I am in IRSPT, Module 1

    I am here: https://inemembers.wpengine.com/ine-home/modules/irspt/introduction/core-content/overview/

    I have tried several times, including both file upload pathways per instructions for certifications. However, the recorded audio files cannot be uploaded even after I zipped the files. Please advise on how these audio files can be submitted. I have sent emails and left phone messages but no return response back to me. Thank you

  12. Lea Jaffe says:

    Hello, I have submitted my answers to IRSPT Module 8 but they will not go through. Have they been received please or do I need to do the module exam again?

    I’ve logged in and out it has not unlocked the system (which is what I have had to do to advance to the next module in every case)

    The tick beside completion of module 4 & 6 is missing for some reason? however I have been able to proceed until this point.

    Please advise if I need to retake the module 8 exam or can module 9 be unlocked asap please.

    May I also have an update to the unstoppable health call invites as per email below. Many thanks, Lea

  13. Lea Jaffe says:

    Good afternoon,

    I completed the exam for module 4 – stress in IRSPT – passed at 90% however I retook it to attain 100% as noticed I had misread the questions and knew the answers. The system will not take my second attempt and appears stuck as will not open the next module. I would like to move onto module 5 please.

    I also stopped the monthly payment to belong to the vital kitchen when it finished after DMC (due to the webinars being very late in the evening for me in the UK) however I am participating in IRSPT and CAFE currently and thought that I would still have access to the monthly calls – I am not receiving an invite to the calls. Please can someone advise if this is not the case. Many thanks,

    I would like help with how to do the courses – I am confused…

  24. Daniela Kaufman says:

    Hi, the RISPT course does not show up on my membership dashboard. It has not in a long time. I thought it was removed because it was only available for a limited amount of time. Because of that misunderstanding I paid the extra money and registered for the current one. I still don’t see it.

    This is what shows up:

  25. Lisa Marie Lamb says:

    Hi there! Do you have a new web developer? Now there are more bugs cropping up on the INE Home page.
    Notably when I try to access Glucose Testing in the Sweet Spot in the left nav bar, I get told I don’t have access
    “https://www.unstoppablehealthcommunity.com/oops/?wlfrom=%2Fbody-balance%2Fstabilize%2Funit1%2Fglucose-testing%2F”
    But I had it open from before and was reviewing the videos while I waited for access for Module 2 for IRSPT…
    “https://www.unstoppablehealthcommunity.com/sweet-spot-2020/week-one/glucose-testing/”
    So its confusing…

  26. Rachel Bagley says:

    I am having the same issue and cant continue on to Mod 2. I have emailed help desk with no response. I tried logging in and out as well. THanks.

  27. Lisa Marie Lamb says:

    Hi there!
    As several members reported earlier today, I passed the Module 1 exam and yet, am unable to continue to Module 2. I have tried logging out and logging back in.

    May I please have access to continue the program? Module 2.

  28. Mary Gomez says:

    Hi, I have completed Module 2 of the IRSPT course, passed the test and received an email to proceed to Module 3. However, I can’t seem to move on to the next module. Please can you help? TIA

  29. Deb Daniels says:

    I have completed the first module from start to finish, to the test and passed, however, they system is not allowing me to move to the 2 module. What am I missing in order to move to the next module – thanks

  32. Joni Kerwin says:

    Hi! Did I miss my recording of the 2019 S.H.I.N.E. Conference. Sincerely hope not. Nothing appears under recordings. Thanks Joni Kerwin

    • Lynn Debuhr Johson says:

      Hi, Joni, The information will show up under the Events tab, and then SHINE. A note has been sent to the appropriate people to let them know you currently don’t have access.

      The other thing to consider is to purchase them, so you have them permanently. You will find that information in your SHINE 2019 area.

      The Livestream access to the SHINE Conference was to be for about a month, or until we had the permanent recordings available. At that time we would be removing access to the SHINE Livestream only. I hadn’t heard that was done yet, but I know it was very close, so that may be part of what is going on.

      Let us know if you have any further questions.

      Kindest regards,

  33. Linda Downey says:

    Hi I don’t see any scheduled calls for the Foundations course- is that accurate or am I missing something? thank you

    • Lynn Debuhr Johson says:

      Hi, Linda! First, welcome to the Functional Assessment Mastery Unit of the Nutritional Endocrinology Practitioner Training program. I think you will enjoy all you will learn.

      I believe your first Office Hours call is next Tuesday at 1:30pm CT.

      This is where you will find your schedule, as well as how to access the call: https://inemembers.wpengine.com/ine-home/schedule/

      You will also be receiving emails with call reminder information.

      I hope this helps!

  34. Debbie Hand says:

    Hi, there! Last night I could access the digital materials from the SHINE Conference but I tried to finish the downloads this morning and every time I click on the link for them, I get sent back to the beginning, my INE courses. I’m using Chrome on my PC and I have logged out and started over twice.

    Thank you!
    Debbie

    • Lynn Debuhr Johson says:

      Hi, Debbie! I logged in as you and saw that you had access to the SHINE videos and digital materials.

      We did have some issues the other day, but all seems to be working now.

      Let us know if it still isn’t opening up for you.

      Kindest regards,

      Lynn DeBuhr Johnson

  36. Debbie Reed says:

    Never mind. I wasn’t looking over to the left to access it. Duh!

  37. Debbie Reed says:

    How come it won’t let me access the test after I finish the module? I wanted to take the test after finishing Module 4 the other day, and there was no link to click on it. A day or so later, I brought up Module 4 again, and there the test was. I want to be able to take the test right after finishing the module, not days later. I just finished Module 5, and the same thing has happened again.Thank you.

  38. Debbie Reed says:

    I have done Module 4 and passed the exam. How come it won’t let me access Module 5? Thank you.

  39. Debbie Reed says:

    Am I supposed to have a different password to access the Sweet Spot materials? When I tried using my IRSPT password, it wouldn’t work. Thank you.

    Debbie Reed

  40. Debbie Reed says:

    Is there some place I can go to see how far I’ve gotten in the course? I haven’t done anything in awhile, and I can’t remember if I have taken the quiz for the third module or not. Thanks.

    • Debbie Reed says:

      Hi, Debbie! It looks like you are in the Stress Module in your Insulin Resistance Practitioner Training Module.

      If you look at the left side of the module you are in on the other modules, you will see a check mark next to the pre-test and the exam. That is when the next module opens up.

      Let me know if you have any other questions about that.

      Kindest regards,

      Lynn DeBuhr Johnson

  41. Merri Harris says:

    Hello, I have not been able to download the ‘resources’ in Module 2

    https://inemembers.wpengine.com/ine-home/modules/irspt/assessment/done-for-you/

    Each time I try it tells me it is an error and that I haven’t been given access. Is there something else I need to do?

    Thanks.

    • Lynn DeBuhr Johnson says:

      Hi, Merri, I hope you have been able to get in and see you have access to the Module 2 Resources in the Insulin Resistance Practitioner Training program.

      I logged in as you and see you do have access.

      Please let us know if you have any other questions.

  43. Melissa Snow says:

    I have not been able to get Module 4 in IRSPT to open for me and I have already passed the exam for Module 3. Thank you!

    • Lynn DeBuhr Johnson says:

      Hi, Melissa, I went in as you and it doesn’t look like you’ve taken the exams for Modules 1 and 2. Once those are taken and passed, Module 4 should open, as you have, as you said, taken and passed the Module 3 exam.

      If you do this and the module still doesn’t open for you, please feel free to reach out and we’ll see about other ways we can get it open for you, and why this might be happening.

      Keep up the wonderful progress!

    Hi,

      Hi, Cindy, I’ll check on this for you. You should have access to it as an NEPT student.

      • Lynn DeBuhr Johnson says:

        Cindy, I thought I would check back and make sure that you saw you had access to these materials.

        Please let me know if you are still unable to see them.

  46. Tami Ju says:

    I’m wondering why my next module, module 4 in the insulin resistance training isn’t opening up for me.
    Thanks
    Tami

    • Lynn DeBuhr Johnson says:

      Hi, Tami,

      Thank you for your patience. I’m not sure what happened, because I have a clear memory of answering you, and now I’m not seeing it.

      Fingers crossed that this stays this time, and you see my response.

      The reason Module 4 hasn’t opened up for you is that the exam for Module 3 still needs to be taken. As soon as you take and pass that exam, Module 4 will open up for you.

      I hope this helps. Please let us know how else we can support you.

    Hello Laura

    I got the
    The Exceptional Practitioner eCourse

    – somehow I just cant find the download page … do you mind to resend it to me ???

    thanks a lot

  49. Sheryl Dresser says:

    I am not able to upload my audio recordings for IRSPT certification. It is in a file (zip), but it says “error” when I try to upload. Can someone explain how to do this please? Thank You!!!

    • Lynn DeBuhr Johnson says:

      Hi, Sheryl, I’m so sorry to hear that you are having an issue with uploading the zip file. I want to do all I can to help you receive your certification.

      You may need to upload each of the files individually that would be in your zip file.

      The other thought is to upload them into either a Dropbox folder or a Google Drive folder, and then include the link for that in the notes area.

      Let me know if any of these ideas might be helpful to you.

  50. Stacy Grissen says:

    I am still not able to access my journal. And my bonuses are not showing up on the site either. Can someone assist me with these issues, pls? Thanks so much.

    • Lynn DeBuhr Johnson says:

      Hi, Stacy, I was able to log in as you and see that you do have access to your Monthly Accountability Journal under your Support tab on your INE Members site: https://inemembers.wpengine.com/nept/journal/

      I am working on seeing what is going on with the bonuses to make sure you have access to them. Is there any particular bonus(es) that you are looking for? I can make sure to look for those specifically, too.

      • Lynn DeBuhr Johnson says:

        Stacy,

        I have checked up on and followed up with all the different bonuses you should have received for signing up full-pay for NEPT at SHINE.

        They have all responded that they have sent you emails with information.

        Your access to Dr. Tom O’Bryan’s Certified Gluten Practitioner course has been triggered, so you should have received an email about that.

        You were granted access to JJ Virgin’s You: The Brand, so should have received an email from them.

        Emails were sent to you from Laura Fine about her Exceptional Practitioner Membership Group.

        You will be receiving information soon about Toni St. Clair’s program, since that hasn’t started yet.

        I hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions about this.

      Hi, Michelle, I have logged in as you using the information we have in our records for you, and was able to see that you have access to both IRSPT and CMDS. Christina has emailed you with the login information we have.

      If you find that you are still not able to login, first try logging out and then back in again. If that does not work, try clearing your cookies and cache, as well as trying a new browser if that doesn’t work.

    I am a NEPT student and would like to get advice on how to deal with an increasingly frustrating experience viewing the posted MP4 files. The streaming is very intermittent and breaks up every 5-10secs for most files I have seen thus far (I am at Module 4). I tried to modify my usage experience by downloading the file onto my hard disk. I noticed the same intermittent stoppage for downloading.

    My home internet connection is on high speed (above 20 MBPS) and do not experience the same thing with FMCA and NTA which I am studying with as well. May I know what are my options as I cannot imagine myself going through the same hassle all the way to Module 36 with NEPT?

    Hi,
    I am in the Upper GI assessment area and the checklist mentions an assessment tool to download, but I do not see that. Also some of the other material talks about a questionnaire. Are they both referring to the functional digestive scorecard?
    Thank you
    Evelyn

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Evelyn,

      Thanks for writing and reaching out. We’ve been updating our pages to include these lovely new tracking features, so it’s great to have feedback and make sure things are clear.

      By “Upper GI Assessment” area, did you mean this page? “Part 3: Upper GI – Pathology and Assessment”
      https://inemembers.wpengine.com/ine-home/modules/digestion/core-content/upper-gi-pathology-and-assessment/

      I’m not seeing wording in the checklist at the top of that page that says to download an assessment “tool”.
      I do see “Downloaded assessments” in the checkbox area.

      If that’s the item you mean, it would relate to the “Assessments” section of the page (further down), so once you’ve downloaded the items under that heading, you could complete that “Downloaded assessments” box.

      And yes, in relation to this question: Also some of the other material talks about a questionnaire. Are they both referring to the functional digestive scorecard?

      I believe Dr. Ritamarie uses the word “questionnaire” interchangeably with “assessment” or possibly “evaluation” and they would all refer to the scorecard.

      I hope this helps to clarify things for you. If you were referring to a different page, just let me know and send along the URL of the page for which you need help.
      Thanks and best wishes!

      When you login, you should be able to access the main CMDS page from any of these locations (see screenshot sent via e-mail).

      I logged into your account to make sure I could go to the right pages.

      I connected with Lynn, and she confirmed that she’d mentioned on the recent NEPT Orientation call that the registrations for NEPT students with the Bloodchemsoftware.com occurs once a month and she had just submitted the new names this week. Lynn said she mentioned on the call that it takes about two weeks to process on the Bloodchemsoftware.com side, so your access won’t be in place just yet.

      Lynn noted that as soon as your access is set up, you will receive a confirmation e-mail from the Bloodchemsoftware.com team.

      One thing to note: If you change your password on the INEmembers.com site, the password you had when you registered will still be the one used to access the Bloodchemsoftware.com software.

Under the Fat Resources, 4 of them return a ‘Page Not Found’ (Omega 3 fats, chia crisps, Dr Ritamarie’s Parmesan cheese, and Gluten Free Raw and Living Foods Recipe). The same thing happened when I clicked on those links from the Advanced Topics/References page (https://inemembers.wpengine.com/ine-home/modules/macronutrients/advanced-references/

    Also on the Progress Checklist, in the Water Resources section, many of the links I tried aren’t active although they look like hyperlinks. Sorry I didn’t have time to try all the links in that document.

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Valerie!

      Thanks for writing and alerting me to the outdated links! We appreciate being able to update these.

      Due to the nature of the internet, many resources and internet pages come and go. I’ve removed any of the links for pages that are no longer available. I also updated the links for the pages that were intended to go to Dr. Ritamarie’s blog. It appeared some of the resources were actually missing from the Progress Checklist so I’ve added anything that was missed and checked to make sure all the items have working hyperlinks (if there was a link associated).

      You may need to refresh the link to the Macronutrients Progress Checklist a few times for it to update (or even clear your browser cache).

    Hi, I just completed the Assessment test in ISRPT (twice). Both times, in question 9, the circle below the one I selected (second answer-dairy raises insulin but not BS) became my selected answer which I knew was wrong. I was using Firefox. Also, the first time, I missed 2 answers because I didn’t realize that I needed to scroll down to see all answers. I knew they were wrong, too. Maybe add a note on instructions that some questions require scrolling down??? No need to contact me, just wanted to report. Thanks.

      I see there are a couple issues affecting the VIP chat box. I’m not seeing Dr. Ritamarie as an available recipient and, as you stated, I’m also unable to attach a file. It says “file does not exist” which is strange.

      I have sent an e-mail to Jimmy who will reach out to the developer of that VIP chat feature. My guess is that it needs to be reconfigured to work with our new membership platform here on INEmembers. Once Jimmy connects, with the developer, it may take several days or a week to get those developments back.

    PS. I did change my password for the IRSPT training from the one I originally chose, but I did this at least 3 weeks ago, so I am not sure if this explains the difficulty in getting into the post test section?

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Kay,

      Thanks for writing, and sorry to hear of your difficulty! Though I’m not familiar with the Exam Professor as Lynn usually looks after that area, she is away for the Spring Into Vitality conference, so I’m going to muddle through a little for the sake of timeliness. As you wrote in your second e-mail, I’m guessing that when you changed your password for the INE members website, the password for Exam Professor did not change with it. Though I’m not that familiar with it, I do know Exam Professor is a 3rd party software. So I checked your file and managed to figure out where to log in to the admin panel for Exam Professor. I think I found the right spot to change the password to the same one as your current INE Members password.

      Can you check to see now if it will log you in? As soon as the team returns, I’ll follow up with them to see what instructions should be provided about password changes on INE affecting Exam Professor.

      Hope this gets you going until Lynn can return to confirm and check things. I’ve cc’d her this message so that she’s aware.

    Thanks and best regards,

      Hi Dorte,

      Sorry to hear this and I will reach out to Lynn on your behalf (I’m cc’ing her here and will also reach out to her on Skype). It’s a manual process to register all IRSPT members into the Exam Professor program. Once you’re registered, you should be able to login there, but it’s sounding to me like you haven’t been registered yet. I see you signed up for IRSPT on May 17th, so this process should have already been done. Sorry for the delay. Lynn has been travelling with Dr. Ritamarie the past while and perhaps she missed this step?

      I’ll try to connect with her and follow up again for you within a day or so.
      Thanks and best wishes!

    The “Pre-test” for the IRSPT program doesn’t exist. The page has NO link to a test, only a link to the answers. Please send me the link to the test within the next 24 hours or I will be asking for a refund for this program. If the pre-test is an issue, what else won’t work? This is the link I was using based upon navigating from the home page of the IRSPT program…https://inemembers.wpengine.com/ine-home/modules/irspt/introduction/pre-test/

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Catherine,

      Thanks for reaching out, and we’re very sorry for the difficulty.

      With the intention of improving our services, we arranged to move to bigger and faster servers on the weekend; however, much to our dismay the server company did not start the process until late Monday. It’s a 2-day process, and it appears that tail-end of the move has affected not only the IRSPT pre-test but all our assessments in all programs.

      This is a high priority concern for us, and I can see from our Team correspondence this morning that this difficulty was discovered last night and has already been submitted as urgent to our technical team.

      So you went to the right page, and normally there would be an assessment there. I do apologize for the unexpected difficulty. I will write to you again as soon as we hear back from Jimmy, our technical contractor.

      To assist you as best I can for now, I’ve edited the Word document to remove the answers, so you can proceed (I’ll attach by e-mail). If you’d like to complete the Word doc (or indicate and type the answers to me in a reply e-mail), once Jimmy has our assessments back, I’ll have a team member input your responses for you in the electronic version. I’ve included a PDF copy in case you are a Mac user or don’t have access to MS Word.

      This was definitely an unexpected and unintentional disruption to our service and intentions. I hope we can provide a positive experience moving forward.

      Best wishes,

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Yoon,

      Thanks for writing and sorry for the delay in opening your IRSPT final exam. Typically, Coach Lynn (I’ve cc’d her above) opens it within a few days of a new member registering. She is currently travelling with Dr. Ritamarie at a conference, so perhaps there is a longer than usual delay. I’m sure she will have the area open for you soon (typically, it takes members a few weeks before they are ready for the final exam).

      If the need is urgent, I can try to get a message through to her on the road.

      Lynn, can you acknowledge when this e-mail is received and the exam professor area opened for this member?
      Thank you!

  122. Jennifer Kramer says:

    Lynn was going to talk to you about opening vibrant living the thyroid modules. I am currently enrolled in NEPT program and I know they usually don’t open vibrant living for 60 days, however, she said I could access it to use my current clients

    She said that the client resources located in the vibrant living would be good to read and use with my clients. I tried this morning and I could not access any of the vibrant living programs.

    Thank you,
    Jennifer Kramer

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Jennifer,

      Thanks for reaching out! I checked with Lynn this morning and I guess she had accidentally not hit “submit” on her request to notify me of this task, so your e-mail was the first I’d heard. I have now added the permissions for you to access both the Thyroid Revive and Thrive and the B4 Be Gone program (which includes a sleep module) on the VLM website. The same credentials you use on INE will work on VLM.

      Login here:
      http://www.VibrantLivingMembers.com

      If you’re currently logged in, you will need to logout and log back in for the changes to take effect.

      Enjoy and best wishes,

    I have lost access to the NEPT and IRSPT modules on the INE website. On the Vibrant Living I do not have access to the B4 Be Gone Blood Sugar Balancing modules but I have other access such as recording and recipes.

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Gloria,

      Sorry for the difficulty and I am including Scott here. On Feb. 22nd, it appears that many what we call “PAYF” tags were applied to your permissions. These tags, which restrict access to programs, are usually set when a payment has failed, thus, I will include Scott here and send him a note on Skype to look into your account and connect with you to ensure all is well.

      Once the PAYF tags are removed, your permissions should be restored.

      Hopefully he can resolve this with you soon.
      Thanks for reaching out!

    Hi,
    All of the drop down menus on my main tabs appear, except for “Module Indexes”. If I click on the tab it tells me to select from the drop down menu which isn’t appearing. Also, I previously had access to the CMDS program in my membership dashboards but now it is saying that I need to upgrade my membership to receive access (I’m in the NEPT mastery program). Thanks so much!

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Kate,

      Thanks for reaching out, and I do apologize. This is an ongoing problem that we’re aware of. The current membership permission software we use, imember 360, seems to randomly crash for unknown reasons for select people. When it does, it affects your menus and permissions. The imember 360 people were unable to diagnose or offer support, so we haven’t been able to fix the issue.

      With that in mind, Dr. Ritamarie has taken steps to purchase an entirely new membership software package from a different company, but the migration is complex and will take several weeks to implement. Until that time, we’ll do our best to correct the mistake for anyone when it occurs.

      I’ve run the correction tool and logged in as you to confirm that your menus and permissions have returned.
      Again, we apologize for the disruption and do let me know if this happens again.

      Best wishes,

      Hi Diane,

      I notice this e-mail address is not one in our file system. Is this the same e-mail that you usually use to login? If you are trying to access that page from a non-registered e-mail, you won’t have permission.

      If I search our file database with your name, I see a different registered e-mail: diane@letchworthsisters.com
      It is that account under which all of your permissions will be stored. If you login and still have difficulty using diane@letchworthsisters.com account do let me know and I will investigate further.

    Hi. I purchased the IRSPT. It shows on my membership dashboard. I get an error when I click to access the modules. It says “The Page You Are Looking For is Not Found.” Please let me know what I need to do.
    Thanks!

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Julia,

      Thanks so much for reaching out and you have my sincere apology for the issue. Since January, following a major update in their software, we have a known issue with our membership permission 3rd party plugin software, imember360. It seems to randomly stop talking to our database, and no one can identify what triggers the failure. Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to get resolution from them on this issue, so we are now negotiating with a new membership permission platform company.

      In the meantime, we have a temporary fix for when this occurs, and I’ve run that fix. I’ve logged in as you to verify the return and access for your IRSPT modules. I apologize for the inconvenience, and please know we are taking steps to solve this in a long-term fashion with a new company.

      Don’t hesitate to let me know if it happens again… I will give you my personal Skype ID: terry_stacey@hotmail.com / Raininggently (Brandon, MB, Canada) should this happen again during business hours so I can immediately run the fix for you. Hopefully that won’t be needed!

      I hope you enjoy your new program, and thanks again for writing.

    Hi,
    I am in NEPT and cannot access other modules like PAFT, IRSPT, and CMDS.

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Toni,

      Our sincere apologies… it is the same issue with imember360 we’ve been having since early January. Disappointingly, despite an ongoing open ticket with them, they have not been able to provide any solutions. At best, we rolled back to a previous version to try and minimize this issue, but it appears to still be happening. In light of this, we are currently negotiating with a new membership protection provider. They are still negotiating the arrangement, and I believe the implementation process is a minimum of 3 weeks upon agreement, so the solution is definitely not as quick as I’d love to offer you.

      I have run the utility that corrects the issue when it occurs and confirmed your permissions are back. I’m also going to give you my Skype ID: terry_stacey@hotmail.com (Raininggently) so that if I’m online during business hours you can reach out, and I can correct immediately for you.

      I am sorry this continues and we do hope to move forward to a more reliable platform ASAP. On a positive note, it sounds like the new system being considered is far superior and will provide its own helpful tracking system for students to know which units they have watched and progressed through. It sounds really exciting (assuming it works as promised). But we are being careful and asking a lot of questions to ensure we’re making the best move forward.

      Thanks for reaching out again Toni, and I hope we can correct this for you soon.

    Hi I am having difficulty. I can get from the login to the inemembers.com/nept/index/m1/ and when I try to get into the modules it sends me to inemembers.com/protected-content/. Cant get into any of the modules. HELP…..

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Drena,

      Thanks for reaching out, and I can only offer my sincere ongoing apologies. We have a known permission issue on our side of things that is causing intermittent access failures. I’ve made this known as a high priority issue for our tech team. A recent update that the 3rd party membership protection software we use is no longer working as before with our custom website.

      I did check your account this morning to confirm your access was restored. If we cannot get a permanent fix to this issue in the next day or so, we will look at switching membership software to ensure we can return reliable stability to the site.

      Again, you have my apologies for the inconvenience. Thankfully, our actual content is available on a separate server, so if you need a video, I can send you the direct video link, slides and transcript if this happens again (but I will work diligently with our team to prevent this from happening).

      Thanks so much for your patience,

    I’m in the Mastery tier of NEPT and I’m trying to get access to the modules. There is no drop-down menu, and, I received a error message indicating I’m not in the NEPT program. Above is the link to the URL page that appears to be “broken”.

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Toni,

      Thanks for writing and I’m so sorry for the disruption. We have a known issue on our hands with intermittent failures between the 3rd party plugin program that is supposed to control member permissions, iMember360, and our client database. I’ve been pursuing this issue with our team, and we are still searching for a permanent solution. The failures seem to be random and hard to pinpoint, making it difficult to identify all the variables that lead to the outage. I’ve sent another high priority message to Ben with your message.

      It’s easy to correct when it happens, and you should now have your access back. I’ve logged in as you to confirm and I now see all your NEPT menus restored. If it should happen again, the longest the outage should last is 1 hour, at which point a self-caching tool is supposed to kick in and correct the problem automatically. But outages of any kind are unacceptable, and it is my goal to pursue this with the advanced technical people until there is a fix.

      Thanks for alerting me and for your patience while we work this out!

    Hi,

    I’ve been trying to take the post-test for NEPT Foundations Module 1 for over a week now, but have been unable to access the exam. When I login to the exam platform I get a screen that has a header that says “available exams” and then underneath it says “there are no exams available”. Above the login toggle, there was also one that said registration so I filled out all my information on the registration screen but it continues to give me the “no exams available” response when I login. I use a Mac and Safari browser, however I saw it was noted that there are sometimes issues with using the exam platform on Safari so I have tried to access the exam area from Firefox, Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer on other computers (each browser on both PC and Mac) but I get the same response each time. Help! Thank you in advance 🙂

      I Thanks for writing! At the moment, it appears you have all the modules you should have access to. I logged in as you and I successfully see the CMDS program, which includes the Digestion index (see attached screenshot sent by email).

      I do understand from looking at your file that you are a new NEPT member. Our team did take a break for the holidays, and we are just getting back into the swing today. We should be opening up the first NEPT module for all the new NEPT 2016 members this week. I have a meeting with Scott and Ritamarie today at 3:30 pm to finalize the process they wish to follow. Once we do, we’ll send you an e-mail notifying you when the module has opened.

      It’s always important to make sure you are logged into the members’ site before trying to click links from emails… sometimes people think their access isn’t working; however, it just may be that they have clicked something while not being logged in. Let me know if you have any other questions or it seems that even when you login from your end, the CMDS program is not showing.

    Hi,

    The page I have an issue with is https://inemembers.wpengine.com/protected-content/
    A few weeks ago I enrolled into the CMDS: Clinical Mastery of the Digesting System and never had any problem however today I can’t log into it. It appears on my dashboard on the right side of my screen but when I try to access the module section I’m redirected to a page that says that I have to upgrade my membership.

    Let me know if I have to do something on my side.

    Thanks a lot and have a lovely day.

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Christine,

      Thanks for writing. I checked your file… everything looks to be in order for your CMDS program permissions (i.e. you have all the appropriate tags). I logged in as you, and I was able to go to the CMDS dashboard, and I was able to access the CMDS module index page and click around to various videos in the core content. I’ll attach some screenshots of what I can access/see if I login with your username and password (I know, it’s like taking your car to the mechanic… it always behaves once you ask someone to look at it).

      My only guess (an issue I have experienced a couple times in the past myself) is that perhaps the website had a general “hiccup” (for lack of a better term) and just logged everyone out… one second you’re on a page and the next you click and it shows in the right-hand sidebar that you’re not actually logged in anymore. And if you’re not logged in, then every page is outside your membership area and you’ll get that message.

      The trouble with knowing for sure is that the link you gave below is just the link to the protected members page — that link will be the same any time you try to access any page outside of your membership area. The goal would be for me to know exactly what link you were trying to click on BEFORE you click it. If you’re on a PC, and depending on the browser the wording may be different, but if you right-click the link that you want to click and select “Copy Link Location” and send me that URL, maybe I can dig deeper.

      For example, the link to the CMDS module page is https://inemembers.wpengine.com/cmds/modules/
      If you’re logged in, you should be able to click that link. If you’re not logged in, it will give you the “permission error” page.

      Do you want to give it another try and see if it was just a login “hiccup” or if it’s still giving you grief, perhaps you can do the “copy link location” to send me the URL that triggers the permission page error?
      Hope I can help!

      Hi Laura,

      Sorry to hear you’ve been having issues. Lynn just asked me for the link to that video, so I presume you’ve been speaking with her (I’ll include her here so she knows I’ve also followed up with you). I checked your file and I don’t see any bounce reports or flags that would prevent you from getting e-mails. On our side it appears that the messages are being sent.

      Since you’ve already added all the contacts to your safelist, is it possible that you have set up a rule of some kind?

      If you’ve ever used the “sweep” function in Hotmail, I’ve found in my personal account that it sometimes then prevents approved contact messages from getting to my inbox, but I do still find them in my junk mail.

      So….what I’ve done is create another new little video… it takes you through some of the other places to check to make sure there are no rules that might be getting in the way and other places to safelist our address.

    The dropdown menus are not dropping down so the modules or resources can be selected. I will try again tomorrow but wanted to let you know in case the site is experiencing a glitch.

    Thanks.

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Morning Deborah,

      This likes it may have to be something I send to Jimmy.

      Do you use a PC or a Mac? And which browser do you use? Do you know how to take a screenshot of what it does for you that you could attach for me to send to Jimmy? I’ll need him to investigate further as the problem isn’t happening for me on my end.

      This may be one of those quirky things that affects a particular user… but hopefully once I know the above, we can dig a little deeper!

      Thanks!

    Hi, Stacey:

    I’ve just completed Module 1 of the NEPT program (including the pre-test). The notice still appears at the tope of the Exam post-test area that Exam Professor is unavailable, but with no date regarding when the notice was posted. I can log into Exam Professor, and a list of exams is presented. However, I’m not sure whether any of these relate to the NEPT Module 1 exam or not – none of them state exactly “NEPT Module 1”. For now, should I just continue to wait a little longer ’til you give the a-ok that this Module’s exam is available?

    Thank you!

    Helen Sandwick

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Heidi,

      Lynn just gave me the go ahead today, so I just removed the notice this afternoon about Exam Professor. Though I can’t myself login to Exam Professor, I’m guessing the tests are no labelled with “NEPT Module 1” names. All our modules are “INE” modules and the test should likely match up with the exact name of the module — so it’s likely something like: “Overview of Nutritional Endocrinology and Hormone Relationships” (or a shortened version of that).

      If you have any questions about Exam Professor or the questions on the exams, Lynn is the best person to write to directly: CoachLynn@DrRitamarie.com

      Thanks and best wishes!

    Hi.
    I was able to do 2 tests since Exam Professor got back online June 18. I tried another test today. I could bring up the test instructions page. It said “Resume Exam”, but I could not get the test to load. (Same problem as before June 18.)
    Is Exam Professor still having problems? Thanks.

    Loyce Bushey

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Loyce,

      Yes, I’m afraid as far as we know, there are still issues with Exam Professor, so our warning and statement on the Exam login page is not to try any further tests until we hear otherwise and remove that warning.

      Best wishes!

  146. Heidi Schafer says:

    I just completed IRSPT test for module 1 with no problems, but as I proceeded to module 2, exam questions would not display. Also, wondering if there are 3 tests to take within module 1 based on post test comments, “1 of 3 tests have been completed”… something like that was stated upon completing module 1, but there were no additional module 1 links to select. Please let me know, thank you.

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Heidi,

      I’m very sorry for the difficulty… in the last half hour, I have just added a note to the INE exam login page that there appear to be technical issues throughout with the exams and not to take any more until further notice. It seems there are a wide range of errors. I have marked this as high priority for our team. I will ask that Dr. Ritamarie send a notification to all members once the issues have been resolved.

      We apologize for the ongoing issues!

  147. Amy Lundberg says:

    I went to take the post test of the first module, “overview” and there was not a link available to take the test. It said something in the black box about the “professor being out” or something like that. Any recommendations? Not in a hurry I have plenty to move forward on but thought I would ask. please direct…I read that the company has had difficulty and I can just wait longer if need be or if another option please advise.

    • Lynn DeBuhr Johnson says:

      Hi, Amy,

      I logged in as you and saw that the exams you are able to take were available. I also went to the 1st module – Introduction – and that also showed that it was available to take. From there, I clicked on the test itself, which brought me to the screen with the instructions for the test. This indicates to me you should be able to take your tests.

      If you find that you are still not able to take the test, please feel free to e-mail me at coachlynn@drritamarie.com.

      Hi Mari,

      The service that hosts the tests, Exam Professor, has really been giving us trouble lately. I will follow up again with Mary (who oversees the test technical issues) and Dr. Ritamarie. I’ve been sending several messages to them about the difficulties. Sorry for the disruption!

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Good morning Loyce,

      Our apologies for the difficulties!

      I know coach Mary mentioned at our Monday staff meeting that the exam professor website had done an upgrade and were experiencing technical troubles, so other people were having the same difficulty. She was watching the situation and following up with them to make sure the fixes happened.

      Unfortunately this morning, it seems our own site is down so I can’t access anything. I’ve notified Mary and Lynn to see if they can look into the exam professor issue and I have notified our tech resource people to address our own site issue this morning. Hope to hear from them soon.

  152. Kelly Busby says:

    I attempted to login, and was able to, but then it says I am not allowed access to those recordings, even though I clicked from my email that says I am allowed access. Is it just not up and available yet? Thanks!

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Kelly,

      I’m so sorry… that is my mistake. There was a permission checkbox ticked that shouldn’t have been — a really random one… I must have caught it with my mouse unintentionally yesterday and not realized. I’ve corrected this, so if you try again, it should work. A logout and login may be required.

      Hi Margi,

      I’d love to help if I can. I sent you a reply on May 14th about what we’d need to help you out further since the issue is particular to your computer and not with our system. I’ll copy that message for you below, but essentially I need an image screenshot that I can give to our tech guy, Jimmy (instructions in the May 14th message).

      Even then, I’m not sure if he’ll have suggestions because it’s only happening on your computer, but I will definitely ask for you if I can show him what’s happening.

      Thanks and best wishes!

      Hi Margi,

      Yup, I logged in as you. I tried logging in as you using Internet Explorer (I have all the browsers on my computer) and everything still seems to be showing for me. I’ll send the screenshots (of me logged in as you and what I see) as attachments. There are two: one that shows which calls you can access on the INE schedule page (and if you click the links, it will take you to the lists for each of upcoming calls) and the second is the calendar grid.

      I was able to click the links on the calendar logged in as you and get the little pop-ups with the event details.

      So, we have a tech mystery: I’m not sure why the calendar grid isn’t working for you.

      The next step would be to send this forward to our tech guy Jimmy, but to do so, I’d need to be able to give him more details or show him the error.

      Do you know how to take a screenshot on your computer? Seeing what you see would be very helpful for Jimmy to investigate and troubleshoot what might be happening on your computer.

      Most keyboards have a “print screen” button somewhere along the top towards the right hand side. If you can take a screenshot, save it in a folder, and then attach it to a reply e-mail, then I can pass it on to Jimmy.

      Hope we can figure this out for you!

  163. Margi Hannegan says:

    Hi Stacey! Thanks for your response. My calendar is blank with nothing showing as scheduled, last month, this month or even next month. I use PC with internet explorer. I did not see your screenshot. I will try to log in with firefox but not sure that would make a difference as everything seems to be working. The calendar was an issue in the beginning. Do you see events on the calendar while logging in with my name?

  164. Margi Hannegan says:

    Correction ~ it does show next week’s call.

  165. Margi Hannegan says:

    The calendar site doesn’t allow me to see what is going on this month. It only highlights today’s date. It shows the future months only. When Lynn was going over the website with me a couple months ago, she noticed this as well. Thanks for any help you can give me. I know there’s a call tonight but can’t find it on the website.

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Margi,

      Thanks for writing. I checked your file and tried logging into the INE members website using your profile. Everything appears to be on the schedule page that you should have access to.

      I see the quick links to all the call types (if you click each link, it takes you to the call with upcoming dates/times).
      I see the calendar of all upcoming events (across all programs with Dr. Ritamarie)

      See screenshot below.

      I use a PC with Firefox to interact with our site. Do you have a PC or a Mac? What browser do you use?

      So far I’m not seeing anything that indicates your calls aren’t showing, but I know technology can be flukey.

      I’ll wait for your reply on the computer/browser. If you use a Mac, I’ll pass this on to Mary as she is our Mac expert; otherwise, I’ll try logging in again using the same browser as you and see what happens.

      Is there any more you can tell me about what you see when you go to the schedule page?

      To my knowledge, the IRSPT final test has not yet been completed. It’s not actually linked to anywhere from the IRSPT pages (that I know of).

      I know Dr. Ritamarie has made arrangements with another practitioner to complete the finals for IRSPT, but I haven’t heard anything yet on the progress.

      Can you right click and do “save link as” to show me which link you’re trying to click or give me the page URL where you are when you see or try to click something for the final test?

      Thanks!

    Thank you for help with this!!! I can get into 12 and have done some work there so I will spend my scheduled day of study there until I hear back from you. Have a heat day!!

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Janet!

      I’m so sorry for the late replay! ONE time ages ago I accidently moved a tech message to the wrong folder and now my Outlook is chronically doing it. I’ve tried all sorts of ways to make it “forget” and apply correct rules! Apparently, I still don’t have my own issue fixed… (argh!) BUT, more importantly… to YOU. 🙂

      While there are links to other modules, those modules have not yet been released to NEPT 2015 members. Dr. Ritamarie gave NEPT 2015 members access to module 12 because the IRSPT program was live when registrations were open, so it was nice for NEPT 2015 members to have that live access.

      There is a module release schedule for NEPT 2015 members here: http://s3.amazonaws.com/drritamarie/materials/INE/NEPT-2015-ModuleCalendar.pdf

      If you’re able to talk to Dr. Ritamarie on the next NEPT call or in some other fashion, you could always ask her if you could have early access to other modules (it’s easy to grant you access to any modules that are in place — I just need permission from the powers that be).

      Hope this helps and wishing you a great weekend!

      I’m guessing if you’re talking about a “first” post-test you are a new NEPT 2015 participant talking about trying to access the “Overview of Nutritional Endocrinology and Hormone Relationships” post-test from the first NEPT module?

      Just checked the page: https://inemembers.wpengine.com/ine-home/resources/tests-exams-login/

      Ah! No wonder you can’t access — the login box has completely disappeared from the page — very strange. I checked the page and there have been no edits/changes to it in over 9 months. Mysterious — perhaps something has changed within the test tool program that Dr. Ritamarie uses and no one realized. Sorry for the confusion, but I will need to get a copy of some computer code to restore the login access panel.

      I will have this updated as soon as I hear back.

    I currently do not have access to the October SHINE materials. When I click the link on my dashboard (after logging out and back in), I see only the promo ad and a link to purchase. I DO have access to all the January SHINE materials, which I also attended in person. I have been completely “checked out” from the program since about mid-July, so I did not register for the Livestream Webcast and may have missed any other registration requirements that came via email or through a regular call. I’m hoping to get caught up reading all the NEPT email updates within a few days.

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Good morning Heather!

      Thanks for checking in to ask about your SHINE access.

      I checked your file and everything appears to be correct. In order to have access to the SHINE October event, you would either have had to attend the October conference in person (you were sent e-mails with your free ticket links) or you would have had to register for the webcast (even for free ticket-holders, there was a fee to cover the technology costs for the webscast). All the free and webcast offers are now closed, but you can pre-order the videos for SHINE October 2014. http://www.SHINEConferenceVideos.com

      Anyone who attended the October event in person only has access to the digital materials; they still need to purchase the videos. All those who paid and registered for the webcast are receiving both the materials and the videos.

      The videos are currently at the video editor’s for processing, and we’re hoping to have them soon.

      I hope that helps clarify your access. Let me know if you have any other questions, and I’ll be happy to help.

    I just want to leave a shoutout of technical GRATITUDE! Because of my current life circumstances, I have become VERY BEHIND with this entire program, and I am just now beginning to resume the studies I barely began in early summer. I am downloading MANY files, and I SO appreciate your well-organized naming protocol. This detail-oriented nut really appreciates that attention to detail. I have participated in so many audio summits and classes that I have witnessed all manner of disasters related to inconsistent or ill-planned file naming. Having everything so well-organized will really help me in my effort to get caught up with the rest of the group. THANK YOU!

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Well thank you very much Heather!

      I don’t always manage to make things consistent, but I do strive for it. 🙂 Happy to hear the shout out and wishing you happy catching-up!

    Hi Stacey,
    I think I am supposed to have access to this page
    https://inemembers.wpengine.com/protected-content/ which has the IRSPT workshop on it, but I get and Access Denied message.
    Thanks!

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Myra!

      Yes, I checked your contact record and you should be able to access the page. Very strange.

      Your contact record shows that you were given the correct access tag on October 27th

      I double checked the index page and the workshop page and they are both showing that the permission is set to the “All Editions” tag.

      Hmmm…

      Myra, have you logged out and logged back in since October 27th? That’s the only thing I can think of that would keep you from accessing. Each time your membership is upgraded to a membership level, it requires a logout and login.

      I’ll also ask Scott to investigate as he can login as you.

  185. Glenn Oehlke says:

    Hello, Stacey. I took the Module 3 post test (macronutrients) and passed with a score of 80, but on my profile it shows that my exam has not been completed. Will you please pass this on to Ritamarie. Thanks! Glenn

  186. Glenn Oehlke says:

    Hello, Stacey. I have my paper hand written on paper, but I am in need of some assistance with the technical issues ( format, creating PDF, etc. ). Do you know where I could find some help? Thanks. Glenn

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Glenn,

      Do you mean what are the format requirements or do you mean how to create those features in your Word processor?

      If the former, there’s a set of guidelines in this document: http://drritamarie.s3.amazonaws.com/materials/INE/INE-Assignment-NutrientAndHerbGrabBag.pdf

      If the latter, then that I’m afraid would be a wee bit beyond my scope of work to help you with and the answers would depend on whatever word processing software you use. Often you’ll find great tutorials online just by Googling the word processing software you’re using as a keyword along with the format feature you want to know about. I’d also encourage you to reach out on the practitioner Facebook group or send an e-mail to a NEPT “classmate” and see if you can find help that way.

      I will forward this e-mail to NEPT@DrRitamarie.com in case someone on our Team also has a suggestion for you.

      Best wishes!

      No problem at all Glenn — that’s why I’m here! Glad you found everything. I’m sure a note will go out when Dr. Ritamarie completes the first video on the page. Cheers! 🙂

        Hello, Stacey. I don’t know if you can help me with this, but I’m not sure how to navigate the nutrient spreadsheet and haven’t been assigned a nutrient or herb. Thanks! Glenn

        • Stacey Terry says:

          Hi Glenn,

          I’m afraid I myself don’t have the link to that (I believe all users must be invited to use and view) as Dr. Ritamarie posted it and my understanding is that Coach Lynn is managing it: CoachLynn@DrRitamarie.com

          I do know that Lynn has sent Dr. Ritamarie a couple reminders that folks are asking about being assigned a nutrient or herb; however, Dr. Ritamarie is away for professional development. I’ve marked that request as high priority for her hoping she’ll see it if she checks in.

          But I’ll notify Lynn to reach out to you about navigating the spreadsheet.

          Cheers!
          Stacey

          • Lynn DeBuhr Johnson says:

            Hi, Glenn,

            I also left you a post on Facebook, so hopefully you’ll see an answer between these two.

            Yes, I’ve been trying to determine how to get this out to you as soon as possible.

            When you do get your nutrient and herb, you type your name next to your nutrient and your herb next to your name. On the bottom of the Google Doc, there are two tabs – one is for the nutrient, the other for the herb. When you first bring up the document, it will probably be on the nutrient. When you are finished putting that information in, click on the herb tab, and that will bring up that sheet. Type in your herb and your are done. 🙂

    Hello, Stacey. I have been able to play and save the intro and water sections to my desktop, but the section on fat will not play. I get “stream not found”. I have not been able to save it to my desktop. It says that it could not be downloaded. Thanks. Glenn

    Hi there, I am unable to find the vip chat area and I have looked pretty hard. I pretty much exclusively use safari. Is this the problem or is it just not on my page. I would hate to switch browsers. Please let me know what is going on just in case mine is not up for some reason. Thanks for your time!
    Steph

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Steph,

      This is a brand new protected page, as of today, for NEPA members who use the VIP chat, so not sure if you’ve had a chance to see it yet. It includes a little tutorial at the bottom.
      https://inemembers.wpengine.com/nept/bulletin-board/2014-2015/nepa/

      At the bottom of that page I’ve just added a screenshot of where the VIP chat *should* be. Let’s confirm first together that this area is missing when you’re logged into the INE member site.

      If you can confirm that, then I will pass this forward to Jimmy to see if there are any alternatives for Safari users. Hopefully there’s a solution or tweak we can suggest for you.

        Hi Stacey,

        the screen shot is really helpful because at least I know what I am looking for. It is unfortunately still not there. Hopefully it’s not a browser problem but it’s just not on my site? Hopefully it’s a fairly quick fix and not too inconvenient. I appreciate you looking into this, thank you!

        • Stacey Terry says:

          Hi Steph!

          I just heard back from our tech guy. He updated a file on our end, so hopefully things should work for you now. Sometimes changes require users to refresh, logout and log back in, and/or clear the cache. I’m not certain if any of these are needed, but it all helps with the troubleshooting if things still don’t work. Hopefully, it just works! 🙂

          Let me know! I will be off for the weekend, but I’ll revisit on Monday.

    Hello, Stacey. I am unable to download and save the water mp3 audio, or the fats mp4 video from the macronutrients module.

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Glenn! Thanks for the note. 🙂 Indeed for the water audio I’d missed updating the link when I updated the file name, so thanks for the catch!

      For the fats mp4, is it possible you were trying to download the first video (i.e. “Fats and Health”)? It’s not available from Dr. Ritamarie just yet. I had a little purple note at the top above the video, but I’ve just now added one above the download links as well to make that more clear. I just built a space for the video so people would know it was still coming.

      I checked the other fats video on the page and it seems to play and download okay.

    Why are modules 1 and 2 no longer on my ine member site? Thanks. Glenn

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Glenn,

      Very strange… they *should* still be there? Everything appears okay for me, and I checked your file; you still have all the needed membership tags.

      I haven’t done anything to either of those modules other than I renamed one internal page in each. Is it possible that in the right-hand sidebar under “Your Membership Dashboards” you closed the little triangular green “carrot” beside “NEPT”? If it’s closed, the modules will hide. If it’s open, then modules will show. Just click on it to either open or collapse all the items under it. Any green arrows in the sidebar indicate there are sub-items under than can be visible or hidden.

      If you’re on the NEPT module index page, can you get to the modules from there? i.e. this page? https://inemembers.wpengine.com/nept/index/m1/

      If sending me screenshots would be helpful, you can e-mail me directly at Stacey@DrRitamarie.com

      Let me know if the sidebar idea is the solution. If not, I’ll dig deeper! 🙂

    Steph and I have received several messages to a chat link, but we don’t think it’s working. Also the link to Bill Baren doesn’t work either.

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Hi Jane,

      I know I’ve seen some e-mails going back and forth between Dr. Ritamarie and our super tech, Ben concerning the VIP chat function. I’m not sure on its status, but I know Ritamarie has been sending out some test messages.

      Regarding the link to Bill Baren, I’ve forwarded your message to Abby to check.

      Thanks for checking in and we’ll pass on any updates — Dr. Ritamarie is away today, so hopefully you’ll hear back tomorrow.

      Best wishes,

    • Stacey Terry says:

      Morning Jane… Abby sent me what she knew about the e-mail. Dr. Ritamarie will know the details about the bonus program, but I can’t see anything wrong with the link. All I notice is that the e-mail says this:

      “Here’s the link to the website for it, so you know what you’re getting. Look for an email from Bill Baren’s assistant with details about how to get started.”
      https://masterofenrollment.com/enroll.php

      The “so you know what you’re getting” tells me that the link should just direct you to an information page. The link correctly takes me to a page where I can read about Bill’s program.

      The actual bonus itself is coming some other way… the e-mail says:
      “Look for an email from Bill Baren’s assistant with details about how to get started.”

      I don’t know the particulars of who or what e-mail you should look for, but I’ve submitted that question to Dr. Ritamarie. I know I keep my e-mail set to exclusive to control spam, so anything new would automatically go to junk mail. But it would be helpful to have a keyword or name to look for. I hope to get those details for you.

      Hi Glenn,

      Sorry to hear she has not replied, but I have been forwarding the messages to Dr. Ritamarie… I will go back and forward them to her again marked high priority. Sorry for the delay! I will chat with her about the possibility of a page dedicated to content/test questions as it’s not an area I can assist with, so I’m an “extra” step in the process.

  195. Glenn Oehlke says:

    Hello, Ritamarie. Is the bacterial cell membrane the same thing as the inner membrane of the mitochondria?

  196. Glenn Oehlke says:

    Hello, Ritamarie. Question #22 on Module 2 post test: Which nutrient is need to convert Acetyl CoA to Citric Acid? Choices are: Vit. B1, Vit. B12, Vit C, Vit. B5
    When viewing the diagram of the Citric Acid Cycle it appears that Cysteine and Iron are required ????

  197. Jane Guyette says:

    Glenn has adressed this question already, but I still don’t know the correct answer from the response. One of the questions on the test, “Which hormone does NOT have a major role in digestion?” I think the answer “Leptin” is incorrect. What is the correct answer?

    • adminine says:

      i edited the test question so that Leptin is correct. Leptin controls appetite, not digestion.

      perhaps it’s a “trick” question.

      all of the others listed have a role in digestion.

      but if the question is still too tricky, i can change it again.

      the point is for this to be a learning experience, not to trick you!!

      thanks

  198. Jane Guyette says:

    Module 1, Part 2
    Slide “Organ Specific Hormone Family”
    ADH – I understand that ADH is produced in the hypothalamus and stored/released in the Posterior Lobe of the Pituitary. Is that correct? Or is it considered “produced” in both glands?

  199. Jane Guyette says:

    Part 2 – Slide “Reproductive Hormone Family”
    Thyroid – What hormones specifically are involved in egg maturation. Both T3 & T4?

  200. Glenn Oehlke says:

    Sleep Hormone table says GH produced in post. pit. Glenn

  201. Jane Guyette says:

    Questions: Part 2 of Module 1

    On the slides “Metabolic Rate Hormone Family” & “Blood Sugar Balancing Hormones”. Insulin is produced by…. Islet cells on one slide and Beta Cells on another. I understand that they are Beta Cells, Islets of Langerhans. Just a consistency issue.

    Somatostatin – I thought from Part 1 that somatostatin is produced in the Hypothalamus, but in Part 2, slide, “Blood Sugar Balancing Hormones”, it says produced in stomach, intestine and pancreas. Should this be “released” in stomach, intestine & pancreas?

    • adminine says:

      Jane, thanks for all your feedback.

      Those family tables were complicated to create and it seems like there were some transposition errors that we didn’t catch. So sorry. We are assigning someone to go through all of them and fix them then create a handout packet with the charts in them.

      So sorry for the inconvenience

      Ritamarie

  202. Jane Guyette says:

    There is discrepency between the Part 1 and Part 2 videos. In part 1 it says prolactin is produced in the anterior lobe of the pituitary. In part 2, in the slide labeled “Reproductive Hormone Family” it says it’s produced in the posterior lobe of the pituitary.

      • Glenn Oehlke says:

        Question concerning location of hormone receptors on cells. I chose both on every cell and on the membrane and within the cytoplasm. Was graded as only on the membrane and in cytoplasm.

        Question asking which hormone was least likely to affect digestion. I chose parathyroid. Was graded as leptin. Thanks! Glenn

        • adminine says:

          Glenn… good questions:

          1- parathyroid effects the rate of calcium absorption in the GI tract. leptin effects appetite but not digestion

          2- hormone receptors: I think that mary was thinking that not Every cell has hormone receptors but that makes it a trick question rather than one that truly tests understanding.

          I will change that question but leave the digestion one as is. thanks again.

          by the way there is a pretty good chart here: i havent checked it out for accuracy but I do intend to create a similar chrt of all the hormones in one place for reference.

          http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_human_hormones

          • Glenn Oehlke says:

            Do you think that parathyroid should be part of the appetite and digestion hormone family?

    Question #s: 10) Where is cortisol produced?
    A, Pancreas
    B. Medulla of Kidney
    C. Cortex of Kidney
    D. Hypothalamus
    Correct answer is Cortex of Adrenals

    15. Which of the following hormones are produced by the hypothalamus
    and pituitary?
    A. Oxytocin
    B. Somatostatin
    C. Vasopresssin (ADH)or
    D. Thyroid Stimulating Hormone
    E. A and C
    It’s my understanding that Oxytocin and ADH are produced in
    the hypothalamus and then stored in and released from the
    posterior pituitary, but the two hormones are not produced by both
    glands.

    22) All of the following are secreted by hypothalamus except:
    A. TSH
    B. ACTH
    C. GnRH
    D. TRH
    Both A & B are correct, because both are produced by the pituitary and
    not the hypothalamus.

    Thanks! Glenn Oehlke

      Awesome Glenn—shows you are really learning this stuff well.

      I proofed them late at night so i guess i was careles.
