The term nutraceutical is another term for dietary supplement. It is important to take the proper amounts of high quality bioavailable nutraceuticals to achieve maximum benefit. It is also important to know which products to avoid based on you medical history or medication you may be taking.
The main categories* of Nutraceuticals for antiaging purposes are:
- Vitamins (water soluble and fat soluble)
- Minerals (major, minor, and trace)
- Essential fatty acids (such as eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid)
- Antioxidants (such as betacarotene)
- Fat Soluble (Betacarotene, Vitamin E, CoQ10)
- Water Soluble (Vitamin C)
- Surface Active (polyphenols)
- Mitochodrial nutrients (such as alpha-lipoic acid and acetyl-l carnitine)
- Herbal extracts (such as indole-3-carbinol and lycopene)
*There is of course overlap between these categories.
You will receive extensive instruction on the use of Nutraceuticals as part of you antiaging program.
