Natural vs. Drug Firecat Technology is expanding into the area of biotechnology products - natural substances, ALL available OTC (over the counter), as opposed to prescription medications. Natural substances include amino acids, vitamins, supplements, and herbals to achieve wellness. The natural approach addresses the cause of the problem, the prescription approach treats the symptoms.
Our biotechnology team brings over 60 years experience to the effort, involved in the use and study of natural amino acids and supplements. The concept of an individual's physiological chemical imbalance occurred to us a long time ago. We hate the prescription pushing doctors, the constant reminder of our prescription based society (there is a Walgreen's or CVS on virtually every corner), the compounding effects of multiple prescriptions and the side effects, the over medicated state many plod through daily - you, your body, mind and soul all suffer - along with your wallet! And, we have only to wait for the next announcement or drug recall due to unforeseen or dangerous side effects. Stop the madness. Go more natural.
Natural herbs and plants have been used to treat diseases and promote medical wellness for thousands of years. Science has taken the task of analyzing the active components in natural products to provide capsulated or tablet forms of those substances. Rather than eat several pounds of plant stuff, you take a pure form of the active agents.
Time has marched on to modern day. Back in the mid 70's you could study amino acids and go to health food stores - sure, you had to do the research in libraries then, but the Internet has expanded the basis for research and information. Now you see television adds for vitamins touting "contains ginko bioloba" or "saw palmetto" or some made up Madison Avenue chemical sounding name for an herbal, or obscure trace mineral. Mainstream America is now learning that natural herbs, amino acids, and minerals are important - they do exist (hell, if you see it on television, it must be true).
An Example of Proper Selection: Why the Science Is Critical - Vitamin D And there is where the "miracle" of natural supplements begins to tarnish. You can walk into any drug or department store and buy Vitamin D - but, is it the optimized form? We have recently been told (see Vitamin D News link) just how important Vitamin D is to prevent many medical conditions (from osteoporosis to cancer deterrence) - but, there is a significant difference between Vitamin D1, D2, D3, D4 and D5. What vitamin D is in your multiple vitamin? How many units per serving? Are you getting full use of the benefits of Vitamin D or are you just buying vitamins without knowing the facts? See the Vitamin D Council link to learn that cholecalciferol is the preferred and recommend source and type of Vitamin D - Vitamin D3. And you see that you would need to drink 50 glasses of milk or take 10 multivitamin tablets to achieve the recommended threshold of 4,000 to 5,000 units per day - neither is advisable!
