Personalized, Defines the Nutrient Depletions caused by Your Prescriptions

To add to our concerns as health professionals there is evolving evidence in the past several months that many prescriptions drugs CAUSE the depletion of certain critical vitamins and minerals in our bodies that can seriously impair our future health. Most physicians are not aware of this danger and in fact the pharmaceutical companies are very slow to inform them. With all the concern of the low vitamin content of "empty" foods, processed foods, mineral depleted soil, preservatives, pesticides, herbicides, etc., one of the true culprits of our nutrient needs could be the very prescription drugs we are taking to get well. In 1978, doctors wrote 4.4 million prescriptions for cholesterol lowering drugs. By 1999, the number had soared to 92.2 million - most of them for statin drugs. How many of those doctors are aware that these drugs deplete Coenzyme Q-10? If they did know, they could have changed drugs or at least supplemented with this critical nutrient.

We have listed 66 pharmaceutical drug classes or drug names that research demonstrates deplete certain vitamins and minerals. These calculations are part of the analysis in your personal assessment.

The NutriScan™ Health Assessment not only delivers your "personalized" Nutrition Prescription but also checks the drugs listed for potential interaction with nutrients. An advantage of this program is that it addresses the following problems:

  • Taking the right nutrients or supplements and not having them absorbed into the body systems

  • Taking the right nutrients and having them blocked by certain prescription drugs or other nutrients

  • Taking the right nutrients and having them "interact" with certain drugs resulting in a poor result or undesirable side effect.

  • Taking the right nutrients but in quantities too high and perhaps unsafe or unnecessary.

  • Taking the wrong nutrients that are contra-indicated by your health condition that results in an undesirable side-effect

NutriScan™ seeks to address these potential problems by:

  • Blocking the selection of certain nutrients that are contraindicated by certain health conditions

  • Blocking overdosing of nutrients

  • Blocking certain drug-nutrient interactions

  • Defining what nutrients are depleted by certain prescriptions

NutriScan™ is non-invasive and convenient (as opposed to blood tests, saliva tests and urine tests that require medical procedures or specimen mailing)
