Doctors'  Brand is a company created by a group of leading physicians from around the country whose mission is to research, select and create nutritional supplements that are appropriate for the needs of their patients (and of their own families).   All Doctors’ Brand products: 1)            can be relied on to be of the highest quality 2)            have ingredients that are based strictly on scientific evidence 3)            have thorough explanations for their uses, ingredients and dosages (which is sadly lacking for the vast majority of supplement products on the market) The important role of nutrition in health and healing has become increasingly appreciated by the public and by physicians.  Although it would be preferable to obtain adequate nutrition from a good diet alone, it is extremely difficult to do so with modern lifestyles and eating habits.  Therefore, supplementation is a prudent insurance policy for good health in the short and the long term. In addition, nutritional supplements can improve energy and mood, they can assist with healing and recovery, and they can provide nutrients not sufficiently available from a regular diet (such as Glucosamine and Chondroitin for joint care).  Supplements are also appropriate for some people who have more difficulty obtaining the vitamins and minerals they need from a usual diet, such as the elderly and those who have undergone certain surgical procedures. In recent years, a huge and confusing assortment of nutritional supplement products has become available - many of them poorly researched, poorly explained and poorly manufactured.  Doctors' Brand was created to combat these problems. Based on its scientific research, Doctors’ Brand decided to make its products in either a unique liquid form or a fast-dissolving powder form.  This allows the nutrients to be much more completely absorbed and used by the body than tablets and capsules.  More information on this subject is provided in “Resources”. Doctors’ Brand products are manufactured in a facility certified by NSF International, the world’s leading independent organization for the certification of Good Manufacturing Practices. NSF has also been chosen by the National Football League and Major League Baseball to provide certification of products approved for use by their professional players.  NSF’s certification is the best possible assurance of quality for nutritional supplement products.
