Nutritional Supplements in Canton MA
In this era of seemingly endless promises from "miracle" supplements we have chosen Innate Choice® products. They created a company where both practitioners and the public can go to receive scientific, ethical, and understandable nutritional products in Canton MA and information. The fact is that there is so much misinformation being disseminated that if one followed all the advice they would go bankrupt purchasing all the recommended supplements! Most disturbingly, they would do so without EVER regaining their health. Innate Choice® finds this both disturbing and unacceptable and they have chosen to create a solution.
Understanding Nutritional Supplements In Canton MA
The vast amount of misleading nutritional information is the result of both unethical marketing practices and confusion regarding the difference between wellness supplements and nutritional therapies. Wellness supplements are designed to supply the required nutrients for the genetic expression of health and the prevention of illnesses that are the result of deficiencies in these required nutrients. Nutritional therapies are just that, therapies to treat the effects of nutritional deficiencies. The problem with nutritional therapy is that the deficiency does not get addressed!
We carry Innate Choice® brand supplements because they have chosen to clarify and simplify nutrition and supplementation. The only wellness supplements that are worth purchasing are those that are addressing an essential requirement for health. In other words, if you are missing an essential nutrient from your diet and you can't get it with a reasonable dietary change then supplementation is prudent. You should NOT be taking supplements to treat illness, you should be addressing the nutritional deficiencies that are causing and/or contributing to your state of illness. This is a fundamental and crucial distinction that guides all of the Innate Choice® products.
They will only ever develop products that address deficiencies that cannot be addressed with reasonable dietary changes. When you purchase an Innate Choice® product you can be sure that it is a product that is necessary and beneficial for "Every Body, Every Day, For Life"!
Probiotic Sufficiency
Probiotics are beneficial bacteria that work to remove toxins from the body, and help regulate the balance between harmful and beneficial bacterial in the digestive tract. Probiotics promotes healthy digestion by providing beneficial bacteria to recolonize and balance the GI tract, and hinder the growth of harmful, toxic bacteria, while also promoting a healthy immune system. Probiotic Suffciency provides 10 different strains and 10 billion active probiotic organisms. Each strain has a unique purpose, and the strains work synergistically to impact numerous areas of health, from immunity to stomach comfort and bowel regularity.
While other probiotics products may deliver large amounts of Colony Forming Units (CFUs) and probiotic strain variety, they do not deliver the complete support that Probiotic Suffciency offers. This could be for a number of reasons. First, the number of CFUs in other products may be coming from a small number of strains. But Probiotic Suffciency delivers its 10 billion CFUs from 10 probiotics strains, specifically targeting numerous areas of digestive and immune health.
Second, many of these products strains and CFUs can easily become less viable due to their manufacturing process and extended shelf life. By the time you take the product, it may be significantly less effective.Probiotic Suffciency utilizes LiveBac technology a unique tableting process that delivers highly viable probiotic organisims far less susceptible to the effects of damaging environmental factors. This extends the active shelf life of our product.
Third, probiotics can become ineffective when they come in contact with stomach acids during the digestive process. This means that when you take a probiotics product, the number of viable strains and CFUs can become greatly reduced by the time they are absorbed into the body. To combat this, Probiotic Suffciency utilizes BIO-tract® technology, a patented delivery system that protects probiotic organisms from stomach acid on their way to the intestinal tract, ensuring a significantly higher percentage of organisms reaches the intestine alive.
Each probiotic strain has a specific role in the maintenance of optimal digestive system health:
- Lactobacillus plantarum has been shown to possess the unique ability to destroy pathogens, or potentially harmful bacteria.
- Lactobacillus acidophilus and Streptococcus thermophilus are able to synthesize lactase and beta-galactosidase, respectively, which are enzymes that contribute to the breakdown of lactose, rendering them beneficial for individuals who struggle with lactose or milk sensitivities. Studies have also correlated supplementation with to decreased pediatric diarrhea. A reduction in serum cholesterol has also been observed following L. acidophilussupplementation.
- Lactobacillus rhamnosus plays a major role in immune support.
- Lactobacillus salivarius has been shown to fight off at least five dangerous bacteria that are involved in peptic ulcer and tooth plaque formation.
- Lactobacillus casei promotes digestive regularity, helping to relieve constipation
- Bifidobacterium bifidum strengthens the protective barrier in the digestive tract, increasing protection from potentially harmful invaders.
- Bifidobacterium longum helps minimize the growth of harmful bacteria by competing for attachment sites in the intestines.
Bifidobacterium breve was included because research linked its deficiency to the presence of allergies, gas and diarrhea.
Omega Sufficiency Fish Oil
Omega Sufficiency is the purest, most natural fish oil available with natural EPA:DHA ratios and NO Artificial Chemical Concentration. Because of this Omega Sufficiency is aligned with the human genetic requirements for Omega 3 consumption and thus provides the maximal health and prevention benefits.
Omega Sufficiency is the world's premier EPA/DHA omega 3 fish oil. Each teaspoon or 4 capsules provides 720-825 mg of EPA and 480-550 mg of DHA omega 3 essential fatty acids which have been scientifically shown to be a crucial requirement for health and important in the prevention of illnesses such as heart disease, arthritis, ADD, depression, stroke, cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, osteoporosis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, eczema, learning and cognitive development problems, and Alzheimer's.
Omega Sufficiency is extracted in a licensed pharmaceutical grade facility from cold water anchovies, herring and sardines that are the purest source of omega 3 fish oil. Our oil is purified in a non-chemical molecular distillation process that removes all trace amounts of heavy metals, PCBs, organochlorides, and organophosphate pesticides resulting in the safest, purest source of EPA/DHA fish oil possible. As the oil is purified it is immediately infused with our natural, proprietary antioxidant blend consisting of rosemary extract, ascorbyl palmitate and natural mixed tocopherols. This process ensures the greatest oxidation protection possible. There simply is not a better, purer source of EPA/DHA omega 3 fatty acids in the world as our third party testing results indicate.
Our extraction process keeps the fish oil in its most natural form possible, this is crucial because human beings are genetically designed to ingest, digest, and absorb EPA and DHA essential fatty acids in the form they are found in nature, not in any concentrated form produced by chemical processing. If science and experience has taught us anything it is that we cannot improve upon nature.
Omega Sufficiency is flavored with 100% natural strawberry/lime or lemon extract and it actually tastes good! Because of the high quality and purity of our oil there is no fishy taste, no fishy smell, and no fishy aftertaste. Even kids like it! For those who do not like the consistency of the oil we recommend adding the oil to juice, a smoothie, or to salad dressings or other food.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to many health-related issues throughout the last few years; examples of these include the following:
- decreased immune system performance resulting in decreased resistance to circulating cold and flu viruses
- heart disease
- cancer
- atopic and autoimmune disorders such as asthma and eczema
What does vitamin D do and why is it so important for wellness and prevention?
The innate immune system is the component of our immune system that is genetically programmed to respond to antigens (viruses, bacteria, fungi, and any other threatening invaders). The innate immune system relies on effectors which are proteins genetically coded to respond to antigens, or invaders. The most studied of these effectors are referred to as antimicrobial peptides, or AMPs. In addition to attacking perceived invaders, AMPs also trigger tissue repair and activate the adaptive or acquired immune system (the branch of the immune system that creates antibodies to specific antigens after exposure).
Recent research has shown that vitamin D is associated with an increase in the production of AMPs in immune cells. Vitamin D also plays an important role in controlling the inflammatory response initiated by specialized immune cells called macrophages. A deficiency of vitamin D means deficient control of inflammation. In the skin vitamin D also activates the immune system against antigens.
