My Story
My personal journey with dietary supplements began much like many others: I was already taking vitamins and minerals that were cheap or on sale because I wanted to save money and thought all supplement products were equal. I didn't place much value on the differences in quality supplement products. This approach led to minimal improvements in my health, and I paid for it later.
After about five years into my sports medicine practice, and shortly after the birth of my first son, I started developing mysterious all over chronic pain, fatigue, and extreme hand pain. This forced me to research and find answers for my health. After countless imaging tests, prescriptions, and being told there was nothing wrong with me, I took matters into my own hands and ran lab work which confirmed I had elevations in a rheumatoid arthritis lab marker which also runs in my family. As a young kid,I witnessed first hand the crippling effects advanced stage rheumatoid arthritis had on my grandmother. As a new dad, young professional, and former athlete who has been extremely physically active my entire life, I vowed to do everything in my power to not have a debilitating autoimmune diagnosis slow me down.
After trying literally everything to get better, I was lucky to have a recommendation from one of my own patients to see a different type of doctor, one who practiced functional medicine. With nothing to lose at this point, I booked an appointment with this provider who changed my life for the better. After a thorough evaluation and advanced lab testing, I was placed on a plan that I am forever grateful for. When I finally started using high-quality, clinically-formulated supplements, my health and lab values dramatically improved, and fast! This transformation ignited a passion within me to share this knowledge and help educate the masses.
While the quality of vitamins and minerals is improving overall in the marketplace, there is still a lot of confusion in the supplement space in general.
