Applied Kinesiology is a simple, safe, and noninvasive test that is capable of ascertaining just about any cause of illness. It is, however, known to suffer, in the majority, from several main drawbacks:
1. Technical – application of force leading to many false positive and false negative readings. This happens as the result of a practitioner applying extra force if he believes that the tested item is the culprit.
Another significant factor is fatigue on the part of the patient. Considering the fact that many people who are being tested are in a weakened state, physically or mentally, and also, children, this becomes a very serious limitation.
One of the studies performed has demonstrated altered findings of the testing when force was applied. (Leisman, Gerald, Zenhausern, Robert, Electromyographic Effects of Fatigue and Task Repetition on the Validity of Estimates of Strong and Weak Muscles in Applied Kinesiological Muscle-Testing Procedures, Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1995, 80, 963-977).
This concerns any variety of Applied Kinesiology that uses application of force.

2. Diagnostic – most of the practitioners limit the value of their findings by missing the true causes of illness.
3. Therapeutic – ineffective means are applied (i.e. nutritional supplements, herbs, complex homeopathics, oral chelators, stimulation of the acupuncture points, etc.).
