Supplements

By pesticide use, herbicide use and harvesting unripe crops on depleted agricultural soil our diet today contains much less nutrients than in the past. This puts us at risk in having deficiencies of certain substances and this can manifest itself in many physical and psychological symptoms. Fortunately, this is possible to manage, control and prevent by using the right supplements.

Important nutrients

The body uses nutrients to function properly and this reduces the risk of disease. Supplements are available at a drug store or health food store. It is advisable not to choose the cheapest variety. The best quality is often a bit more expensive, but often better. Herbal formulas are only useful based on the body's ability to absorb these well. Therefore, it is often necessary to first rebalance and optimize the intestinal lining and gut flora.

Importance of quality nutrients

Botanical medicine is focused on the administering of optimal concentrations of nutrients, always on a natural basis. Nutrients that we use are vitamins, minerals, amino acids, essential fatty acids, flavonoids and other plant extracts. The body uses these plant chemicals as building blocks for the maintenance of optimal health to prevent and reduce the risk of disease.
