If I eat a healthy diet do I need supplements?

Unfortunately with food processing, mineral-depleted soils and anti-nutrients such as pesticides, growth hormones and antibiotics, the nutritional value of our foods is slowly declining. Combine this with stress, toxins, exercise, sun, alcohol and air pollution, our nutrient demand increases. Nutritional supplements are a necessary component to any nutrition program.

Nutritional supplements have a wide variety of applications. They are not just vitamins and minerals but also nutraceuticals, phytochemicals, omega 3 & 6 fats, botanicals and amino acids. Supplements augment a solid nutrition and lifestyle program and help to expedite your health goal. They can be used to improve your general health or used therapeutically to mitigate symptoms of a medical condition.

Aren’t supplements all the same?

Just as over the counter medications do not have the same potency as prescription medication, supplements vary significantly in quality and efficacy. The supplements we recommend have a high potency and produce results. They are not processed with fillers and are in a form that is absorbable by the body. While this adds to the cost of the product, if you are taking sub standard supplements, the benefit you will get is likely to be minimal and thus a waste of money.
