Vitamin and Mineral Supplementation
- Vitamin and Mineral SupplementationÂ
While recent years have seen an entire industry emerge around the commercial preparation and sale of vitamin and mineral supplements, many of the products available through retailers and private distributors are of little value if used improperly. They can, in fact, cause substantial damage to patients' bodies and are often more expensive than they need to be. Some are not even absorbed by the body in the form in which they are sold and can only be delivered by injection.Â
The most recent research into the medical use of vitamin and mineral supplements points to the issue of biochemical diversity. In simple language, this means that what is a useful and helpful dosage of a given vitamin or mineral supplement for you, may be quite harmful to another patient, even if he or she has the same health condition, or set of symptoms. Safe, effective treatment with vitamin and/or mineral supplementation therefore requires a comprehensive diagnosis, which takes into account your unique biochemistry.Â
If vitamins or minerals are needed to treat your health condition, Â the staff at The Natural Path will recommend the dosage and type of supplement that is right for you. If an injection is required, a qualified health practitioner will perform it on our premises.
The Natural Path does not receive compensation from the manufacturer or distributor of any line of vitamin or mineral products.Â
