Why Personalization is Critical

Every one of us is different and when it comes to what your body needs, one size does not fit all. If you are in front of a vitamin aisle, you may be wondering:

• How much is too much?
• Can anything be potentially harmful to me?
• If I’m pregnant or taking drugs, should I do something different?
• Are there particular times of the day I should be taking certain supplements?

The answer is a resounding yes. You may not have known that taking too much of a nutritional supplement (even if they're totally natural) can be just as harmful as taking too little (see our Health Bulletin on Optimal Dosage). Although there has been much scientific evidence on optimal dosages, this has been largely ignored by the industry and common over the counter products often contain potentially harmful dosages for certain situations.

New science also confirms that the timing of a nutrient’s delivery is often as important to health outcomes as the dosages used. The same nutrient can be beneficial at one time of day while harmful at another. (see our Health Bulletin on ChronoNutrition™)

• Lifestyle Diet and Allergies
• Age, Gender, Ethnicity, Geography
• Genetic predispositions and functional health
