The Advisor FAQ

My diet is healthy; why should I take supplements?

If you eat a diet that is optimal to provide all the nutrients that your body needs, it is possible that supplements will not provide any benefit. However, many people do not eat enough fruits, vegetables and fish to ingest sufficient quantities of the vitamins, minerals and other nutrients our bodies need. In addition, some people take medications that may deplete nutrients or reduce the body's ability to absorb certain nutrients. Dr. Surkin's WELLCOR supplements are specially formulated to provide cardiovascular support. While it is impossible to evaluate prevention, many of these products will aid in helping to maintain a healthy heart and/or reduce the progression of existing conditions affecting your heart health.
