Orthomolecular medicine is a scientifically-based approach to healing the body and preventing the onset of illness by balancing substances natural to the body through diet and dietary supplements.
Many modern illnesses are linked to molecular imbalances caused by vitamin and nutrient deficiencies or excesses. Orthomolecular science allows individuals to identify natural imbalances in their biochemical makeup and use vitamins and nutrients to correct the imbalance.
Literally translated, "orthomolecular" means "to right or correct a molecule" and what's right will differ for every individual. An orthomolecular practitioner can help determine the appropriate level of vitamins and nutrients to optimize your health.
Since 1968, orthomolecular care has helped thousands of people around the world prevent and treat many of today's severe illnesses and conditions including:
- Autism
- Schizophrenia
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Huntington's Disease
- Bi-polar Disorder
- Cancer
- Shingles
