Despite the overabundance of calories in the standard American diet, nutrient deficiencies remain surprisingly common. One study from 2017 reported that 31% of the US population was at risk for at least one nutrient deficiency. Dietary supplements can help fill this gap. Dietary supplements can provide clinically studied nutrients to help maintain wellness. Our bodies require vitamins and supplements to function properly, but with busy lives, readily accessible processed foods and little time for exercise, getting enough essential nutrients is difficult. Our products are formulated to provide optimum benefits.
Scrupulous dietary supplement companies maintain supply chains that adhere to Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) as set forth in 21 CFR Part 111 of the Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act. Make sure the supplement company you choose can confirm their supply chain is GMP compliant. Also, companies that stand by their products should happily provide a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) for any product upon request. The CoA provides information related to each product batch’s adherence to finished-product specifications.
Health and nutrition goals can vary a lot from person to person. Finding supplements that align with your goals can be challenging. That’s why we offer comprehensive Supplement Guides to help simplify supplementation. We also offer—as a free service—phone consultations with knowledgeable Wellness Specialists, to help guide you, because every body is different. They can be reached at 1-800-226-2370. Another great way to help determine which supplements might benefit you is by having your blood tested to see if you have biomarkers of any particular concerns that supplements and lifestyle changes might help address.
