We’re sure you have plenty of questions. We’ve tried to answer the most popular questions below. Always consult with your healthcare provider for questions and answers specific to your own unique physiology. The questions below are grouped into three basic categories: basic questions about the Optimal Health Program, questions about our blood analysis and physiological assessment and questions about our products.
Q: Is hormone optimization safe for women?
A: You’re right in asking – there’s been some negative publicity regarding hormone therapy and women. However, the controversy mainly surrounds the Women’s Health Initiative study from the early 90′s. The WHI was stopped prematurely and used synthetic hormones – underscoring the risk associated with synthetic hormones. Our program utilizes only safe and natural bioidentical hormones which are the same as those produced in the body. The bottom-line is that when an educated healthcare professional prescribes bioidentical hormones properly, there are no increased risks associated with the occurrence of breast cancer or heart disease.
Q: What’s included in the Optimal Health Evaluation?
A: Your initial consultation includes everything: your visit with your healthcare provider, physiological assessment, comprehensive blood analysis and online access to all your medical records. You don’t have to be interested in hormone balancing to purchase one of our evaluations. We recommend everyone, including children, have at least one Optimal Health Evaluation per year to get your levels checked and diagnose any potential health problems. The testing is also advantageous in setting benchmarks for all your health levels. Should you choose to start restoring your hormone values at a later point in time, the prior testing is helpful in setting target levels.
Q: What’s included in the Optimal Health Program?
A: Your customized hormone balancing program includes everything: all follow-up visits with your healthcare provider, including your 6 and 12 week progress evaluations, all physiological assessments, blood analysis, products and online access to your medical records.
Q: What type of physical changes should I expect from taking your products?
A: Our clients have shown marked improvements in the following areas: increased muscle tone and strength, increased bone density, thickened hair, improved skin elasticity and suppleness, improved mood and happiness, increased libido and sexual performance, increased energy, improved zest for life, improved cognitive function and alertness and decreased body fat.
Q: What happens if I stop taking your products?
A: Nothing, your body will simply return to the same physiological and hormonal state you were in prior to starting our program. Our bodies are very good at adapting to changes in our physiology. Research has shown that many individuals retain the benefits of hormone therapy after stopping treatment. Should you decide to stop taking our products on a more permanent basis, you’re unlikely to retain many of the health benefits you gained while utilizing our products. This is due mainly to the fact that your hormone levels will no longer be optimized and your body will lack the stimulus our products provide.
Q: What types of tests do you use to analyze my blood?
A: We utilize one of the most comprehensive set of blood panels in the industry to provide you and your healthcare provider a detailed assessment of your health. You can read detailed information about all our tests by clicking on the Services tab above.
Q: What’s an amino acid complex?
A: Our amino acid complex is a secretagogue, which is any substance that causes another substance to be secreted. Ours is engineered to stimulate your pituitary gland to produce growth hormone. If you do your homework, you’ll probably find some information stating that secretagogues also stimulate your body to produce cortisol. Cortisol is a stress hormone and when it is elevated chronically it will encourage our bodies to store fat, raise blood pressure, weaken the immune system and impair the body’s repair mechanisms. Healthy cortisol levels, though, are needed for good health and energy. It is the balance of cortisol and growth hormone that is key. Our amino acid complex utilizes patented technologies to avoid overstimulating your body’s production of cortisol while boosting and balancing the production of these hormones that are beneficial to your health and physical appearance.
Q: Are my medical records secure?
A: Our program is being run in conjunction with a clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of hormone balancing as a foundation for optimal health through preventative medicine. As such, our information systems and protocols have been designed to standards set by the FDA, NIH, and HIPPA. You can rest assured your information is kept highly secure and extremely confidential as we our required by law to continuously audit our systems and facilities.
