Implications for Food Supplements
Think of it. Coenzyme
Q10 …the richest source is heart! But
who eats heart today?
Alpha
lipoic acid is another nutrient in short supply
in modern foods. It's a unique antioxidant that's
both fat and water soluble. It's richly supplied
in these foods native people emphasized.
The nutrients known to be critical
for bone health include calcium, magnesium, boron,
manganese, and vitamin D. These nutrients are
in short supply in the muscle meats we customarily
consume today, but they're richly supplied in
the calcium
hydroxyapatite of bone. Other trace minerals
including selenium and chromium are found in their
highest concentrations in the organs. Glucosamine
and chondroitin are found in the cartilaginous
tissue that surrounds the joints. MSM,
methylsulfonylmethane, or organic sulfur, is a
food constituent found almost exclusively in animal
source foods, and in highest concentrations in
the organs.
Not all supplements are created
equal. Most contain magnesium
stearate or stearic acid, used as lubricants
(flowing agents), to speed up the manufacturing
process. All Dr.
Ron’s products are completely free
of stearates and all other additives.
In a key study in the journal Pharmaceutical
Technology, the percent dissolution for
capsules after 20 minutes in solution went from
90% without stearates to 25% with stearates. These
substances clearly adversely effect the dissolution
and absorption of nutrients.
Pure supplements work more efficiently.
My patients’ experience with patients confirms
this. Nutrient delivery is rapid and thorough.
There are no hidden ingredients to cause reactions,
no upset stomachs.
But pure supplements are not found
in the vast majority of health food stores. They're
chiefly available only through physicians. In
our supplements, you will find the best quality
nutrients and herbal extracts. Capsules are topped
off with synergistic natural ingredients rather
than fillers that may be allergenic. Encapsulation
machinery is run slowly in order to avoid the
use of stearates and all other additives.
