Nutritional Products Need to Include:
1. Meaningful amounts of each ingredient! (Many formulas have ridiculously
low amounts of some ingredients just so they can have a long ingredient list.
2. Nutrients that interact with each other in a complex. (For example, it is
important to take the whole vitamin C and E complexes to receive the full
benefits they offer.)
3. What nutrients can be taken safely in higher amounts (than traditional al-
locations)? If so, is there value in doing so?
There have been many scientific studies in recent years supporting the value
of much higher amounts of some supplements.
In many cases, the body will simply eliminate any surplus. If so, we prefer to
supply the body with extra amounts and let it decide how much it wants to
keep.
4. How common is the nutrient found in a normal diet? Some nutrients need
more supplementation than others.
Also, the absorption and use of different forms of a supplement by the body
varies. If so, we prefer to use the forms the body can better absorb and use.
We also recommend and use the best laboratories who have NSF, cGMP, ISO
9001 and ISO 17025 certifications. This insures a high-quality product!
It is also amazing how many nutritional companies (as well as some pharma-
ceutical drugs) do not account for weight in their recommended daily serv-
ings.
After all, does the body of a 100-pound person need the same amount of nu-
trition as a 250-pound person? Of course not! We try to stay sensitive to this
where it applies.
Most of all, we wish you the best of health and life!
