How to choose the best nutritional supplements
Quality. What are the ingredients? “Other” ingredients? Who and where are you getting them from? Are they 3rd party tested? Do not order online unless direct from the company.
Specificity. Are they right for me? Who recommended them and do they have professional training in nutritional supplements? What dosage is right for me? What herbs? Nutrients? Forms of nutrients? Is it compatible with my biochemistry, stage of life, nutritional needs? Does it interact with my medication?
Choosing the right dose, form, and supplement at the right time for the right person to be most clinically effective requires professional training. At Artemis Wellness Center we personalize our nutritional supplement recommendations for you after a comprehensive wellness visit or nutritional supplement consult. We also refine our treatment plans every 1-3 months for maximal benefit and cost- effectiveness of your nutritional supplement plan based on laboratory analyses (blood work) and your medical needs.
Toxicity. Supplements you find on the internet through a quiz, friend, neighbor or that are sitting on a shelf of a store that is not from an integrative practitioner may not be true to its label at best and may be contaminated with heavy metals, toxins and even expired medication. In June 2019, the Food and Drug Administration seized 300,000 dietary supplements because they had high levels of the toxic heavy metal, lead. Another study of a major pharmacy found that 7% of their supplements were not true to their supplement facts. The only way to be as sure that you are taking a product of the highest quality that has been 3rd party tests and tested for heavy metals, contaminants and that is true to label is to trust an expert, a Naturopathic physician or integrative physician trained in nutritional supplements.
Sustainable. For me as a physician, it is not enough that I have a great quality product, that it is right for my patient and free of toxins and true to label, I also use products that are as environmentally sustainable as possible.
Integrity. Who owns the company? Who are your supporting? Did you know that you may be funding hate crimes with your purchase as was found in the news with some supplement companies.
Integrity is very important to me in my practice as is the integrity of owners and manufacturers of the nutritional supplement companies I am using and recommending to my patients. In most cases, I have toured the manufacturing facilities for quality, toxicity and best supplements for therapeutic use. I also only use professional lines of supplements and herbal medicines for the most effective and highest quality personalized supplements for my patients.
