Drug-Nutrient Interactions
Recently the online store was updated to make it easier for you to shop for products and to check out faster. As part of the update we added a health resources section containing articles, research, podcast of health issues and several online health data bases.
One of the data bases is called Drug Depletions and compiles research examining nutrient depletion resulting from prescription drug use. According to the Centers for Disease Control, the number of adults aged 55-64 taking at least one pharmaceutical in the last month rose from 62 percent in 1988-1994 to 73 percent in 1999-2002.1 The large number of individuals taking pharmaceutics suggests that the potential for drug-nutrient interaction is substantial.
