‘If I’d known I was going to live so long, I’d have taken better care of myself.
~Leon Eldred

It all starts on the table.

Often poor nutrition can result in poor health. You are what you eat, right? This is true and even if you do eat your fruits and veggies and avoid processed sugar laden junk food you may not be getting all of the vitamins and minerals necessary for a healthy body. These days crop-producing farmland is being overused creating foods devoid of the nutrients they should contain. Also, the amounts of hormones, antibiotics and pesticides we are exposed to through our food can create additional health concerns we need to consider. Additionally, allergies and food sensitivities are on the rise. As well as preventable diseases like Diabetes, Obesity and Osteoporosis. Supplementation is a way to combat our exposure to a nutritionally lacking detrimental diet. Dr. Lukovsky will work with you to devise a nutritional plan that may involve detoxification, supplementation or dietary counseling.

Nutrition: A few key nutrients that you could supplement in your diet

t is crucial to obtain adequate amounts of vitamin D on daily basis, as deficiency can lead to a host of health issues. Vitamin K2 (menaquinone) comes in a variety of forms, with evidence suggesting that the form MK-7 is particularly important for people that have chronic health issues causing nutrient malabsorption.

Given the importance of adequate Vitamin D levels in the body and many people’s lack of exposure to direct sunlight, D3 5000 with K2 supplementation can help users in a variety of ways. The most relevant research-backed benefits include:

● Support cardiovascular function

● Support healthy mood and stress levels

● Support bone and skin tissues

● Support immune function

Bones contain more calcium than any other organ in the human body (about 99% of the calcium in the body is stored in bones). The intercellular matrix of bone contains large amounts of calcium salts, the most important of which is calcium phosphate. 

The MCHC or microcrystalline hydroxyapatite has been studied rather extensively over the past three decades, with findings showing it can help support healthy calcium status and bone tissue health.

MCHC not only contains the optimal calcium for bones, but also bone growth factors and peptides, such as collagen. In turn, it suggested that MCHC helps support osteoblasts (cells that promote bone growth) and osteocytes (bone cells).

 

Clinical research suggests the benefits may include:

● Supports bone health

● Supports healthy teeth

● Supports healthy calcium levels

Collagen production decreases as we age and due to negative environmental factors including poor diet. It is a key ingredient in keeping skin, hair, and nails vibrant by supporting healthy connective tissue and epithelial tissue. It also promotes healthy joints by promoting joint nutrients for chondrocytes. 

Supplementation has many benefits such as:

numerous health benefits such as: 

• Provides antioxidants to help support oxidative stress

• Promotes vibrant and healthy skin, hair, and nails

• Supports healthy gastrointestinal tract function

• Promotes healthy joints

• Supports overall health and immune response

Research suggests that supplemental glucosamine, chondroitin, methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), and hyaluronic acid can benefit cartilage integrity, reduce inflammation, help nagging joint issues, bolster the integrity of important joint articulations and fight oxidative stress in joints.

Benefits:

● Supports joint health and function

● Support cartilage, tendons and ligaments

● Mediate oxidative stress

An extensive body of clinical research has demonstrated the efficacy of supplemental EPA and DHA for:

● Healthy cardiovascular function

● Healthy immune function

● Musculoskeletal support

● Skin vitality

● Cognitive support

EPA and DHA are ultimately what will determine the benefits you experience from using a fish oil supplement.
