This is the only nutrition-based non-pharmaceutical company with one of the five Proteinomic Genomics labs in the world. This helps them see what their nutrients do to your DNA’s expression. Your dose can be from 3/day up to the full recommended 8/day, especially under times of great stress or if you don’t get much of your diet from home cooked meals from fresh organic ingredients. Using a product with this quality (vs. labeled amounts in forms your body doesn’t use well) is a great foundation on which to begin a healthy supplementation plan.

Given that the Salt Lake City Sewer Department has stated it recovers two 55 gallon drums a day of the still readily readable best sellers Centrum, Theragram M and One-a-Day brands that went thru their consumer’s completely undigested, you would be wise to have pills properly formulated to get the nutrients you’re buying to your cells. That is why these pills are so large and it still takes 8 to get a full load as the most absorbable and utilizable forms take up space that makes a small “one-a-day” a label with no benefit product.

Multigenics I.C. and the rest of these products all come from Nutrition Dynamics unless otherwise indicated. You can order from (763)479-3444 or www.nut-dyn.com , using doctor account #100081.

Get it without iron, a cancer promoter, unless menstruating by using product code #M861 or as a powder using #M862.

For a multi in liquid form, use Only One Gold from www.WellnessOneWorld.com/81461  or 1.866.884.8027.

[#R203 from Nutrition Dynamics, as above]-this oil from the second largest biomass on earth is low in toxic residues, renewably self-sustaining and contains a special form of omega-3 fatty acids surrounded by absorption-enhancing functional phospholipids and has potent antioxidants as well. It is great for those of us who don’t eat 36 ounces of wild caught salmon weekly or an additional 4 cups of walnuts and who do eat veggie oils, beef, chicken and pork. Dose3-6/day with these to: increase good HDL and lower bad LDL cholesterol and elevated triglycerides, improve PMS and painful periods, and help ADHD and ADD, decrease inflammation, increase memory, concentration and alertness.

5000-50,000 IU’s/day; your ideal dose is really the dose that causes no toxic build-up on blood testing (which can be done easily) and gets you to your ideal level, the top 1/3rd of the reference range (65-90 ng / ml). A key to inflammation control and the proper function of at least 3,000 genes (i.e. 10% of all of them) is to have optimal vitamin D3 status. www.directlabs.com will arrange a local blood draw for 25-hydroxy Vitamin D [not1-25-hydroxy] and send you the results at your request without a doctor in the loop or www.vitamincouncil.org / (866)600.1636 will send you an at-home test kit for $65. Dr. Mercola recommends LabCorp.

Use D3-5000 [#D11], 1-2/day (if you’re 170 pounds or over), Iso-D3 [#M203] or #M144 [1000 IU], from Nutrition Dynamics, 2000 IU’s for children 2 and up, 3000 IU /day for 80-130 pounders, 4000 IU/day for 130-170 pounders and 5000/day for those 170 lbs and up. Blood values drop to the 15-18 ng/ml level in the average American while 50-65 ng/ml are needed before we can begin to store any reserve and levels of 65-90 ng/ml are required for cancer prevention.

Current RDA Guidelines for Vitamin D are outdated in Light of New Research: from Dr. Mercola @ www.mercola.com

At the end of 2008, the American Academy of Pediatrics doubled its recommended dose of vitamin D for infants, children and adolescents, raising it from 200 to 400 units per day. Unfortunately this is still a woefully inadequate recommendation for children. Recent research reveals children may need ten times that amount in order to receive the health benefits that optimal vitamin D levels have to offer.

As of right now, the conventional RDAs are only:

400 IU for infants, children and adolescents

200 IU for adults up to age 50

400 IU for adults aged 51 to 70

600 IU for seniors over 70

So how do you ensure optimal vitamin D levels for yourself, your child, and aging parents?

A blood test is the ONLY reliable way to determine how much Vitamin D you or your child needs. Yes, the only way to determine the correct dose is to get your blood tested since there are so many variables that influence your vitamin D status. I recommend using Lab Corp in the U.S. If you get it done by Quest, you’ll need to divide your result by 1.3 to get the “real” number.

Step 1: Make Sure You Use the Correct Test Getting the correct test is the first step in this process, as there are TWO vitamin D tests currently being offered: 1,25(OH)D, and 25(OH)D. The correct test your doctor needs to order is 25(OH)D, also called 25-hydroxyvitamin D, which is the better marker of overall D status. This is the marker that is most strongly associated with overall health.

Step 2: Determine Your OPTIMAL Level of Vitamin D Here again it’s important to realize the difference between what conventional medicine considers to be “normal,” versus what is optimal.

 The “normal” 25-hydroxyvitamin D lab range is between 20-56 ng/ml. As you can see in the chart below, this conventional range is really a sign of deficiency, and is too broad to be ideal.

 In fact, your vitamin D level should never be below 32 ng/ml, and any levels below 20 ng/ml are considered serious deficiency states, increasing your risk of as many as 16 different cancers and autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis, just to name a few.

 The OPTIMAL value that you’re looking for is 65-90 ng/ml if cancer prevention or remediation is your goal. This range applies for everyone; children, adolescents, adults and seniors.

 These ranges are based on healthy people in tropical or subtropical parts of the world, where they are receiving healthy sun exposures. It seems more than reasonable to assume that these values are in fact reflective of an optimal human requirement. It’s worth clarifying here that “ng/ml” are U.S. units of measure. Much of the world uses “nmol/l”. If your test results are measured in nmol/l, simply multiply the above values by 2.5 to get the correct ranges.

 Keeping your level in this range, and even erring toward the higher numbers in this range, is going to give you the most protective benefit. And the way you maintain your levels within this range is by getting tested regularly – say two to four times a year in the beginning, and adjusting your vitamin D intake accordingly.

 The maximum we naturally make if sunshine saturated is 10,000 IU/day as we have a biofeedback system that stops further production and supplementing past this level triggers premature skin aging, wrinkling and skin cancer. Only Carlson cod liver oil has much more Vit D than Vitamin A which is essential for D to work but it is smelly and less practical than these small and inexpensive capsules which are more reliable than regular weekly sun exposure. Taking a Multivitamin [such as Multigenics Intensive Care without iron, 2-8/day, from www.nut-dyn.com or 763.479.3444, Dr. act. # 100081] to assure adequate Vitamin A availability for proper Vitamin D function is prudent since there are no blood tests for Vitamin A adequacy or toxicity.

 Blood levels of up to 200 ng / ml are not harmful according to leading researchers. Dr. Cannell’s Advanced Vitamin D has all the known precursors and synergists for proper D function and may help raise levels in the resistant case when 10,000 I.U.’s a day doesn’t raise lab values for you - www.purityproducts.com

 Dr. Mercola comments again: Calcitriol, the most potent steroid hormone in your body, is produced in large amounts in your tissues when you have sufficient amounts of vitamin D.

 However, most cancer patients are vitamin D deficient, as are 95% of seniors and 85% of the U.S. population.. Calcitrol -- the activated form of vitamin D -- has been shown to protect against cancer by inducing cell differentiation and controlling cell proliferation. People with a low vitamin D level are less able to make activated vitamin D in an amount sufficient to exert the controls over cell proliferation that are needed to reduce cancer. Optimized vitamin D levels will work synergistically with virtually every other cancer treatment. There are over 830 peer reviewed scientific studies showing Vitamin D’s effectiveness in the treatment of cancer! Not only is this approach virtually without any side effects, but the treatment is practically free. I believe it is nearly criminal malpractice to not optimize vitamin D levels when treating someone with cancer, in which case you’ll want to elevate your levels of vitamin D to about 65-90 ng/ml.

(Berry flavored, #300B)-Dose ½-2 scoops/day in water, juice or a shake.

 When pills are preferred over the powder above, use Phytocomplete (#M950), 180 tablets),6-12/day.

(#2120 from www.phporder.com or (888)747-6733, act. # 464876)-I’ve added this for those who train hard and sweat a lot to help with rehydrating and restoring electrolytes and who don’t take Dynamic Greens that already has ionic minerals. It also helps with restoring restful sleep, improved circulation to hands and feet, nail, skin and hair health, digestion, assimilation and elimination, boosts immunity, helps regulate blood lipids and stabilizes blood sugar. Dose: from 10-80 drops/ day in water or juice.

(763)479-3444 or www.nut-dyn.com , Dr. Account # 100081, plain resveratrol is product # R214 but I like the plus version. Take at a dose of 2-6/day. With this we have a very interesting way that may duplicate the 50%+ longevity increases severe food deprivation has induced in mice without the draconian dietary restriction while pushing weight loss too.

 Calorie restricted diets are the model against which any intervention can be compared since it is the unequivocal way to promote health and longevity. [Ageing Research Review 2008 Jan; 7(1):43-8] The Yogi’s have long quipped that half of what we eat keeps us alive and the other half keeps the doctors alive. Drug, diet or nutraceutical-centered interventions need to be compared against a proven standard of health and longevity, in this case, calorie restriction. The overall physiologic influence of a calorie-restricted diet is similar between species such as mice, rats, pigs, monkeys, yeast, and flies, so, animal studies closely parallel human genomics. [Journal Nutrition 2005 Jun; 135(6):1343-6]

 Resveratrol may thus act as a molecular calorie restriction mimic. Researchers single out resveratrol, a red wine molecule, for its unique ability to favorably control hundreds of genes at one time. [Journal Nutritional Biochemistry 16: 449-66, 2005] Dr. John Pezzutto of the University of Illinois describes resveratrol’s overwhelming effect upon the genome as "a whiff that induces a biologically specific tsunami." [Cancer Biology Therapy 2004 Sep; 3(9):889-90]

 In doses achievable with dietary supplements, resveratrol is a potent:

1. Anti-inflammatory (COX-inhibitor) agent
2. Blood thinner
3. Cholesterol controller
4. Antioxidant
5. Mineral chelator
6. Liver detoxifier
7. Brain plaque cleanser
8. Blood sugar normalizer
9. Bone builder
10. Cell adhesion inhibitor
11. Anti-depressant
12. Anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-fungal agent.
13. Furthermore it pre-conditions the brain and heart against damage caused by strokes or heart attacks. [Cell Cycle. 2008 Feb 15; 7(8)]
14. Resveratrol inhibits weight gain by two mechanisms – inhibition of fatty acid synthase, an enzyme needed to convert sugars into fat, and by reduction of insulin levels which reduce hunger. [Current Medicinal Chemistry 2006; 13(8):967-77; Life Science. 2008 Feb 13; 82(7-8):430-5] In a remarkable experiment conducted at the Cardiovascular Research Center at the University of Connecticut, resveratrol overcame an animal model of
15. Congestive heart failure where the first blood vessel outside the heart (the aorta) was restricted with a band, inducing the heart to pump harder against intentional resistance. This usually results in thickening of the ventricle (chamber) walls of the heart and reduced expulsion of blood (ejection fraction). However, these effects were abolished in resveratrol-treated animals. [Current Opinion Investigational Drugs. 2008 Apr; 9(4):371-8]

This is the only MSM with this much purity on the market. Requiring ½ the daily dose of MSM (which is still good enough for many applications other than cancer remediation, (see www.iherb.com/LIC722 for a 2.2 pound container at a great price) to be effective, for general health preservation, use one tablespoon daily. Try 2-4 heaping teaspoons/day and see less pain soon. Also, this is an essential adjunct to treat or prevent cancer. See www.biosulph.org for instructions, discount opportunities and potential detox reactions to be seen as improvements while using BioSulph.

This form is well absorbed and easily procured and 3-6/day will replete your “90% likely to be too low no matter how well you eat” magnesium stores. Take 1 hour pre-bed to help with leg cramps, get to sleep easier and with normal non-straining bowel movement in the AM. Use Mag Citrate (#M866) from Nutrition Dynamics.

Also you’ll need to replace the Co-Q10 that is destroyed by Statin meds (using product # R350U from N.D., 100 mg. 1-4/ day. This product is called Ubiquinol and it’s a much better absorbed form of Co-Q10. This reduced active form has only been available since 2007 Co-Q10 is vital for abundant energy production. This nutrient allows our hearts to make their needed 6,000 grams a day of ATP to power our pump that diet alone cannot replace. By age 80 Co-Q10 in the blood may decline by 80% vs. age 20. Blood from those with heart problems has 25% less Co-Q10. It is shown to:

• Protect and strengthen the heart, giving it more useable energy,
• Reduce skipped beats and cramps, protects arteries and veins,
• Regulate blood stickiness, tremendously boost the heart’s pumping power (n.b. vital in congestive conditions or enlarged hearts),
• Does wonders for fatigue (n.b. 70% fatigue sufferers are low in Co-Q10),
• Drop high blood pressure (n.b. 39% of hypertensives are low in it)
• Radically drop the number and severity of migraine attacks plus
• Banishes brain fog,
• Keep memory sharp longer and
• Protect from stroke.
• Support healthy gums
• Boost your body's immune system
• Help maintain normal blood sugar levels
• Support muscle recovery from intensive workouts
• Promote normalization of your weight
• Rescue aging and damaged cells in many parts of your body and replace them with healthy, vigorous new ones...
• Revitalize your aging heart so it pumps and beats as strongly as it did years ago...
• Rejuvenate a fading brain so it works with the precision of a fine Swiss watch...
• Reboot a weakened immune system so you can increase your ability to fight off sickness...
• Re-energize your whole body so you feel alive again...
• Restore your organs—especially your heart, brain, lungs and liver—so they're powerful again...
