Two things quietly wreck most supplements:
1. Pixie-dust dosing (so little it can’t move physiology)
2. Cheap forms (technically “present,” functionally useless)

That’s why my rule is simple:
Absorption + dose + verification > fancy label copy

“Lab tested” might be the most abused phrase in supplements.

Here’s the insider secret:
A company can say “lab tested” and still avoid the tests that matter. Ask “Do you test BOTH raw materials AND the finished product for identity, potency, and purity?”

Red flags to watch out for:
🚩 “Proprietary blend” hiding doses
🚩 “Clinically dosed” with no milligrams
🚩 No mention of stability testing
🚩 No mention of allergen/cross-contamination controls

Doctors don’t “shop supplements” the way consumers do. We use a private checklist because here’s the uncomfortable truth...

Doctors don’t “shop supplements” the way consumers do. We use a private checklist because here’s the uncomfortable truth: The label is marketing but testing is truth!

My “secret weapon” checklist:
1. Is it manufactured under cGMP (not just “distributed”)?
2. Is the facility third-party audited/certified?
3. Do they test raw materials for identity?
4. Do they test the finished product for potency (label claim)?
5. Do they test for purity/contaminants (microbes/heavy metals)?
6. Do they verify stability through expiration?
7. Do they control allergens/cross-contamination?
8. Are doses therapeutic, not fairy-dust?

There’s one detail on a supplement label that almost nobody checks…
❌It’s not the ingredient.
❌It’s not the brand name.

It’s the proof behind the product!

Here’s my “insider” filter before I let something into my clinic:
✅ cGMP manufacturing (made under real manufacturing controls)
✅ Independent audits (someone outside the company verifies systems)
✅ Raw + finished product testing (identity + potency + purity)
✅ Stability testing (will it still work at expiration?)
✅ Allergen/cross-contamination controls
✅ Bioavailable forms + therapeutic dosing

Your brain runs on fat. Your hormones signal through fat. Your cells are built from fat.

Your body is built on structure! Omega Plus essential fatty acids are one of the most “basic” things we use because they support the body's foundation.

Blood work reveals your A1C, helping you understand whether your habits are working.

For some people, targeted nutrients can support healthier glucose handling alongside lifestyle. We commonly use Glucofactor IR to assist insulin signaling and glucose metabolism, especially when labs or symptoms suggest insulin resistance.

A1C is unique!

For some people, targeted nutrients can support healthier glucose handling alongside lifestyle. We commonly use OptiALA Berberine in practice as a blood sugar metabolism support.

Tips to improve A1C:
1. 10-minute walk after meals
2. Protein-first meals
3. Meal timing (stop grazing)
4. Improve sleep (sleep changes blood sugar faster than most people think)

If you do only one thing this week, walk! Consistency beats intensity.
