Many patients require or request supplements for optimal health. As you may know supplements are not regulated by the FDA so brand name is extremely important.
I have spent a lot of effort vetting many neutraseutical manufacturers for the highest quality products that cover most of my patient’s nutritional needs. They are not the only good products on the market but they are representative of the top tier of supplements.
Many of the listed products are available in health food stores or on the Internet. If it is convenient to purchase them online by ‘one stop shopping’ they can be ordered from the Doctors Supplement Store at www.dssorders.com/GreenwichHormones. After an initial free registration (Code: EJ346) you can go to Dr. Jacobson’s Supplements and look for your product(s) by searching under the brand name first.
The supplements are updated periodically as new products are evaluated and added to the list. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding their use or dose.
