Today an ever expanding body of medical and scientific evidence documents the importance of proper diet and benefits of nutritional supplements for health maintenance and prevention of disease.  This growing mass of information has created a demand for proven effective natural food supplements.

The next era of nutrition will focus on natural occurring properties provided from plants, fruits, and vegetables which support good health. Nutraceutical is the new term used by the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine to describe a highly promising area of health and medicine where newly discovered food/nutrition products have a proven effect on the human body. The Nutraceutical Industry has become a highly respected industry for supplement health.

In October of 1994, the President signed into law The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA).  As a demonstration of public opinion, the DSHEA Act was written to empower American consumers to make choices about their own preventive health care programs.

A key intent in passing DSHEA was to improve the health of the American people through educational information to help them make better product choices.  The instruction of dietary supplements may systematically minimize the need for expensive drug therapy and thus reduce the country’s health care expenses.

Because of the DSHEA Act, a new industry has emerged based on non-toxic, functional food components standardized for higher quality and effectiveness.  Nutraceuticals are natural high quality standardized supplements proven to have pharmacological health benefits as validated by medical and scientific research.

The DSHEA Act allows for and encourages companies to provide truthful non-misleading scientific research of health benefits from specific dietary supplements to be made available.

An ever-increasing number of consumers are concerned with maintaining the quality of life by using the best effective natural products. They want to look and feel young, healthier, prevent sickness, and want to avoid becoming customers to the “sickness business.”  These consumers are only getting started with habits and lifestyle changes that promote a lifetime of wellness. 

The discovery of essential nutritional components from nature for the proper support of good health equates directly to the body's innate ability to sustain health and recover from disease – all from the support of improved nutrition.
