12 Life-Changing Supplements

We are all dosing on a daily concoction of miracle juices, powders, and supplements to maintain achieve optimal health. It’s easy to understand why the advantages of vitamins and supplements appeal to us. To make the pursuit of improved health a little less intimidating, we’ve compiled a list of the top supplements available to combat anything from insomnia to exhaustion.

Vitamin D

Acquired through sunlight, Vitamin D is essential for healthy bones as it helps our body absorb calcium. It is also a mood booster! Your vitamin D levels can fluctuate depending on the weather, rising in the summers and lowering in the colder months depending on the hours of sunlight available.

Zinc

Zinc is essential for maintaining a healthy immune system. It helps ward off colds, but our body does not produce it. However, foods like chocolate, cashew, and spinach are rich in this essential mineral. Generally, a 25g tablet daily can keep your zinc levels optimized.

Echinacea

Echinacea is a flower that can boost the immune system to fight illness more successfully and is marketed as a dietary supplement for the common cold and other diseases. In addition, it’s utilized to treat various medical conditions like migraines, discomfort, and inflammation.

Wheat Grass

A great source of several vitamins and minerals is wheatgrass. Iron, magnesium, calcium, vitamins A, C, and E, and amino acids, are particularly abundant in it. Wheatgrass contains chlorophyll, a form of green pigment linked to several health advantages, much like all other green plants.

Nutraceuticals from Biote

“Nutraceuticals” is a term coined by Biote to describe their supplements which are expertly formulated in strict laboratory conditions that pharmaceutical companies follow. This ensures your safety and you can be confident that the supplements you are taking are the safest formula possible, tested and proven safe.

These supplements are conveniently available through our practice and also at our online store.

Omega 3

Healthy fats like omega-3 fatty acids may benefit the health of your heart. Lowering your triglycerides is a major advantage. Omega-3 fatty acids may also help you by boosting your HDL (good) cholesterol and lowering your blood pressure.

ADK

This nutritional supplement promotes bone health in men and women by combining the three essential vitamins A, D3, and K2. Daily use of the Biote ADK 5 & 10 tablets helps maintain strong bones while enhancing the benefits of bioidentical hormone replacement treatment.

5-HTP

Serotonin synthesis is increased by 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) in the brain and central nervous system, which is how it functions. Sleep, hunger, body temperature, sexual behavior, and pain perception are all influenced by serotonin. It is a natural amino acid. It is often used for regulating sleep and for helping treat anxiety and depression.

Curcumin

Curcumin supplements can increase the COMT enzyme’s activity, which may aid in estrogen metabolism in both men and women. In turn, it seeks to promote a healthy immune system, may provide some relief from infrequent aches and pains, and may help shield cells from DNA damage brought on by faulty estrogen metabolism.

Methyl Factors

Methylation is an important biochemical process that significantly influences how well our body can control its reproductive, nervous, cardiovascular, and detoxifying systems. Methylfolate (5-MTHF), active B6, active B2, active methyl B12, and betaine are the five essential methylation nutrients the Biote Methyl Factors+ offers in their most accessible forms when taken daily.

Iodine

The thyroid gland transforms the iodine we swallow into the hormones triiodothyronine (T3) and thyroxine (T4). Our body’s metabolism of proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates is governed by T4 and T3. Furthermore, iodine may promote the activity of proteins involved in estrogen metabolism, supporting healthy breast tissue. A proper quantity of iodine may be obtained via Biote Iodine+ when it is taken regularly as part of hormone treatment, which may assist in guaranteeing that a deficit is not affecting hormone synthesis.

DIM

Diindolylmethane, or DIM, is a hormone balancer. Our DIM hormone treatment supplement comes from pomegranate and broccoli. It is not, however, a plant estrogen or an estrogen imitator. DIM tries to control the ratio of healthy to less healthy estrogen, which may assist in inducing a more effective metabolism for estrogen.

These high-quality micronutrients are essential for your overall health. These micronutrients are impossible to get from your daily diet. CORE+ is the nutraceutical line by BioTE®. This line offers superior and essential nutrients for patients with hormone imbalances. CORE+ BioTE® supplements promote optimal balance for your hormones. Visit our Biote Supplement Store HERE.

Biote is a solution for men and women who are aging and experiencing hormonal shifts. Those hormonal shifts can wreak havoc with your sleep, sex-drive, memory, muscle tone, weight and more. We’d love to answer any questions you may have about the program and its benefits.
