Nutritional Balance
Most of us understand that proper nutrition is the foundation of good health. As we age, our nutritional status declines and correcting this can slow the aging process and reverse many of its unhealthy aspects. Nutrition can be broken down into macro-nutrition (calories, carbohydrates [fiber, starch, sugar], fat, protein, and water) as well as micro-nutrition (amino acids, co-enzymes, co-factors, fatty acids, minerals, and vitamins).
Dr. Varveris improves both aspects of your nutritional status by designing an individualized diet plan as well as a personalized supplement program. The diet plan will be based on what specific food types are most compatible with your physiology, while the supplement program will be based on detailed analysis of your cellular micronutrients. Similar to healthy low levels of oxidation and good hormonal balance, proper nutrition is crucial to maintaining appropriate lean muscle mass, as well as healthy skin tone and texture in the years and decades to come.
Elite Iodine
Our Elite Iodine is a high potency iodine supplement, supplying both iodine and iodide. As a result of decreased iodine status due to the typical Western diet, optimal thyroxine is not always produced, thus potentially affecting normal thyroid function.* The use of oral iodine/iodide can aid in circumventing this issue. Although approximately 80% of the dietary intake of iodine is sequestered by the thyroid gland, other tissues concentrate iodine as well. These tissues include the salivary glands, the gastric mucosa, the choroid plexus, the mammary glands and the ovaries. Published information suggests iodine/iodide helps to maintain healthy hydroxyl estrogen ratios as well
Elite Multi-Vitamin
Our Elite Multi-Vitamin is a versatile, balanced multiple vitamin and mineral supplement, that supplies unique forms of important micro-nutrients available exclusively from Biotics Research Corporation.
Elite Probiotic
Probiotic supplements are classically known to contain viable, defined microorganisms in sufficient quantities which work to alter the microbiota and, thus, exert beneficial health effects.* Our Elite Probiotic is a specific blend of 3 prebiotics and 7 probiotics extensively tested to ensure optimal colonization with bacterial strains recognized for their bioactivity. It contains 20 billion viable organisms per capsule, providing optimal probiotic coverage.
Elite Fish Oil
Our Elite Fish Oil provides a potent dose of omega-3 essential fatty acids (EFAs), sourced from a strategically-placed facility in the far South Pacific Ocean off the coast of Chile, guaranteeing the freshest raw material available, full traceability of the product, and unparalleled purity. Each capsule delivers 1,000 mg of total omega-3s, including 882 mg of combined EPA and DHA (529 mg EPA/353 mg DHA), making it an ideal choice when higher doses are desired.
