Title:
During this episode of Fast Lane with Sara Jayne, Sara talks with Josh Kauder at NutriDyn. Sara and Josh talk about the benefits of supplements, but also the importance of knowing what you are taking, ensuring quality and effectiveness, and meeting your health and wellness needs. Also, Josh discusses the process NutriDyn goes through when introducing a new product and how each supplement is tested before being sold.
Episode Highlights:
- NutriDyn is a family-owned business founded in 1973 that focuses on healthcare practitioners and using clinically-effective formulas.
- It is based out of Minnesota but is a worldwide company.
- How is NutriDyn different from other supplements?
- Often, supplements found in stores do not meet their label claims or contain added ingredients.
- Sara recommends a fish oil supplement to most of her patients.
- The Omega Pure fish oil supplement is one of the most popular NutriDyn offers.
- NutriDyn runs third-party tests, not internal tests, on every single lot of their Omega Pure line.
- How do you come up with a new product?
- Josh notes that people should not expect “quick fixes” or immediate results. Conditions often build over a long time, and you can’t expect it to get better overnight.
- Prescription medications have their place, but long-term may just be “masking” the problem instead of fixing it.
- The soil is different now than it was 40-50 years ago, which has also affected the nutritional value of the foods we eat.
- Sara notes that she wants to help people be better, but also doesn’t want to put down the things people are already doing.
- Josh brings up how people with pre-existing conditions are at greater risk of Covid-19, but that this also applies to many more things.
- Josh reiterates that every product they sell is third-party tested, and coming out with new products is a very lengthy process.
- Josh shares a brief story about how the purity of the supplement can really affect the results on someone’s health.
- What do you think about kids taking supplements?
- What do you think about when people see promotions along the lines of “All women/men need this!”?
3 Key Points:
- When choosing a supplement, it’s important that the ingredients are pure and that it contains a therapeutic dose.
- Some nutrients have different forms, and many companies will use the cheaper or less pure one in their formulas.
- When it comes to kids taking supplements, do what you can when you can and try to create healthy habits they can carry into the future.
