Drug-Nutrient Depletion
The recent scientific literature has shown that many of the side effects of medications are caused by the depletion of essential nutrients when the drug is taken over a period of time. The depletion of nutrients may be caused by problems with nutrient absorption, transport, and excretion
Some examples of this include:
* Depletion of Coenzyme Q 10 by the statin drugs
* Depletion of the B Vitamins by estrogen replacement therapy
* Depletion of Folic Acid by the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
When considering the increasing exposure to environment pollutants, the poor nutrition from the typical American diet and the problems associated with the intake of prescription drugs - it makes good sense to include well formulated high quality nutritional supplements in our daily life.
