About Supplements

Role of Health Supplements

Long before modern medicine and the advent of prescription drugs, herbs and natural remedies were used for health conditions of every kind throughout known history. Our collective ancestors have spent generations using and classifying a vast array of herbs and other ingredients from nature to help with health conditions. Applying modern research and techniques to these tried and true ingredients has resulted in what we know today as health supplements. Today’s health supplements are generally compounded to provide natural, first-line relief to a variety of conditions common to people the world over.

In addition to the health condition aspect of supplements, there is also the nutritional aspect. If you subscribe to the addage “you are what you eat,” then doesn’t it make sense to get the most beneficial and natural ingredients available? We think it does. A widespread belief among the scientific community is that it is difficult to obtain the optimum balance of nutrition through the meals typically associated with modern diets and eating habits. Current thinking holds that supplementation with dietary health supplements can help overcome dietary deficiencies and provide relief from a variety of temporary and/or chronic health conditions. We support that body of thought and strive to provide you with natural ingredients of the highest order toward improvement of your health.

“Vitamins, minerals and many vitamin-like substances . . . are among the body’s nutritional and biochemical building blocks. These nutrients take part in virtually every biochemical reaction.”
