When conventional medications do not help….

Well, I have had my 2nd cortisone injection at the base of my thumb.  Maybe it has helped a little.  I still believe that my cholesterol medication ( a statin) is aggravating the inflammation.  I have been taking the OPC-3 nutritional supplement twice a  day and I believe it has helped me better than anything else I have tried.  I have done my research and used my background as a pharmacist to evaluate the literature and science behind the different products.  I have found that there are two companies that make sense.  One is Juice Plus and the other one is nutraMetrix.  They don’t make silly “cure” claims and they are both nutritionally based.  I do believe that if our bodies are nutritionally balanced we have a better chance to prevent chronic diseases.  If we already have a chronic condition or disease, then our goal is to lessen complications and to feel and actually be as healthy as possible.  I have never been one to jump on the supplements bandwagon for curing anything.  Think about this—If it is possible to take certain nutritionally based products and your body repairs itself as much as possible—-could you decrease or eliminate some of your prescription medications?  The answer is –Yes, to the decreasing and Possibly, to the eliminating some prescription medications.  You and your physician always need to work together.  You could save yourself money over the long run, you could decrease or even eliminate bothersome side effects, and you will feel better physically–all by being nutritionally balanced.  I was skeptical and I always will be.  I have had success with the OPC-3 and will continue to take it twice a day.  I can pick up a glass again and I am able to hold a pen and write again without excruciating pain.   You owe it to yourself to check it out and see if the nutraMetrix products will help you as well.  I am a health care professional and I am now a distributor of nutraMetrix products.  Feel free to use my website to link to nutraMetrix and take the free nutraphysical.  www.nutrametrix.com/medadvocate
