4 Types of Supplements
You can never out supplement a bad diet.
Let food be thy medicine has got to be one of the most powerful statements outside of the bible. That being said, we know it can be hard to obtain all the necessary nutrients in our daily lives, especially with the quality of food we find in the grocery stores.
Let our products help SUPPLEMENT your diet and lifestyle. With that being said, let’s talk about the 4 different types of supplements.
The inexpensive brands at big chain stores (Walmart, VitaminWorld, Costco, etc.) that have nothing “Natural” in them and are generally loaded with synthetic isolates.
Supplements a medical doctor can prescribe, which means they had to put in something synthetic so they can patent the “active ingredient”. A natural supplement will not be patentable since it can grow anywhere. Think corn vs GMO corn.
Supplements you can buy at a Health food store: Where they have a good, better, best option. Generally increasing the price dramatically between each level.
Supplements that can only be purchased and sold by health care providers, but do not require a prescription as they are not patentable. That's what you will see in our office.
