SUPPLEMENTS


There is no doubt now, that we are unable to get all the nutrition that we need from our food. There is also much more demand on the body because of our toxic environment and the stress and business of today’s modern life. We recommend 5 basic supplements as an ongoing maintenance. Some people may require extra(s) supplements for their own specific needs. All Vitamins and Supplements are not created equal. We recommend that the Supplements are made by a company that produces in Pharmaceutical grade. That means that the ingredients are only the ones listed on the label and are present in a concentration of at least 98% of the label amount and it is totally bio-available to be absorbed. Also, you need to have a product that is clean – that is free of additives, fillers, gluten, dairy, etc., and has had independent quality control analysis. You want to be sure that what you are paying for you are getting and nothing extra as an additive/filler.


Once people are on a maintenance program, they can take weekends off the multivitamins and melatonin, if on it.   We suggest:


 



  • Probiotics ( also known a Natural Bacteria, Acidophilus, Bifidobacteria)

  • Multi-vitamin with adequate anti-oxidants 

  • Calcium / Magnesium / with Vitamin D3

  • Extra Vitamin  D3

  • Omega 3 Essential Fatty Acids (EPA & DHA) – Our products exceed International Fish Oil Standards

  • Greens  –  for example chlorella, spirulina, etc.

 


We have products in stock and available by special order from the following suppliers: Seroyal, Metagenics, AOR and Boiron. Please note that all of our products that we have available fit the above criteria – however, you are under no obligation to purchase them from us.


 



Vitamin D


 


Some of the therapeutic Benefits of Vitamin D:



  •     Cardiovascular Disease

  •     Hypertension

  •     Diabetes

  •     Osteoarthritis

  •     MS

  •     Depression

  •     Epilepsy

  •     Migraine Headaches

  •     Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

  •     Musculoskeletal Pain

  •     Autoimmune Conditions

  •     Inflammatory Conditions

  •     Cancer Prevention & Treatment

  •     Fibromyalgia?

NOTE:


 It is important that when you supplement with Vitamin D – it is Vitamin D3.


There are Vitamin D receptors in nearly every organ system of the body. It is believed that Vitamin D acts both as a Vitamin and a Hormone. We are finding that most people need at least 2000 IU of Vitamin D3 as a supplement daily – even in the summer months. If you have any of the above conditions, it may be necessary to increase that amount as the cells are using it up in greater quantities. Vitamin D can be monitored easily by the following blood test – 25 (OH) Vitamin D. It is our belief that the best numerical value for Vitamin D is in the top 20% of the present laboratory normal range.


 



HMF PROBIOTIC INFORMATION


 HMF means human Microflora. These are available through Seroyal and Metagenics. Most Probiotic sources are from cattle or sheep. Human Microflora implant better in humans than the cattle or sheep sources. Independent quality control is important to ensure that the product purchased has therapeutic value when purchased. Our products have independent quality control.


Probiotics have been shown to do the following things. Improve the initial immune response, help with detoxification, improve bowel motility, help with assimilation of our food, help with absorption of Calcium and Magnesium, decrease food sensitivity reactions, manufacture vitamins, improve the barrier function of the bowel which decreases the potential of infections from pathogenic microorganisms, to name a few.


Unless enteric coated, all Probiotics should be taken at meal time. If they are taken on an empty stomach they are destroyed by the stomach acid.


If someone is on antibiotics, they should take the probiotics anyway. Research has proven that this is most effective and it also decreases the development of Antibiotic resistance. Once the Antibiotic is finished, high potency probiotics should be used – for example, using the Seroyal products, REPLETE first, followed up by one month of the INTENSIVE. When people  are taking the Replete and the Intensive, they don=t need to take the other HMF. Once the Intensive is completed, they go back onto the HMF they were on before.


Occasionally, people cannot take the HMF because it contains FOS (a prebiotic) and produces too much gas. If it persists, in this case, we use Intensive because it has no FOS in it. They may have to take it every other day at the beginning and then to daily as tolerated.


 


The following are products available from Seroyal.


HMF FORTE: This is the most commonly used and the one we usually start with. It is usually recommended as 1 twice daily at meals. Example - breakfast and supper. If people have trouble remembering the second one, we sometimes have them take it 2 once a day at a meal.


HMF SUPER POWDER: Is the same potency as the HMF FORTE. It is used when people can=t take capsules or for older children. 1/4 teaspoon is equivalent to 1 capsule.


HMF NATOGEN: This is used for babies up to one year of age. Dosage is one scoop daily.


HMF POWDER: This is what the child goes onto after the Natogen - from 1 year on. They start off with 1/8 teaspoon twice a day. This can be increased to 1/4 teaspoon to 2 teaspoon twice a day when they get older. This product has a lot more FOS than the SUPER POWDER or the HMF FORTE.


HMF INTENSIVE: This is a higher potency than the HMF Forte. Also, it does not contain any FOS so is suitable for those that have persistent gas and bloating from the FOS containing HMF.


HMF REPLETE: This is the most potent HMF. We rarely start with it. It is used after antibiotics, food poisoning, colitis or any severe GI upset. It is used for one to two weeks and then followed up by the INTENSIVE.


HMF NEUROGEN: This is used with certain Neurological disorders - such as Autism.
