nutraMetrix  is a complete vitamin line available to our patients in our office as well as though our web site http://www.nutrametrix.com/dunnedelashomds/.  Many of you have tried some of these vitamins and have found them tasty and easy to take.  These vitamins are isotonic, which means the same fluid pressure as your body.  Therefore, these supplements are 90-95% absorbed into the blood stream in 5-10 minutes when taken properly on an empty stomach! They come in powder form that you mix with water and drink!  Any of the isotonic vitamins can be mixed together and taken as one drink!  When you come in for your visit, ask for a sample!

Since most of us don’t get enough in our diet (dairy, dark leafy greens) then a supplement is highly recommended.  Reproductive aged women need 1000 mg per day and menopausal women need 1500 mg.  I like the nutraMetrix Calcium because it is easy to take (a citrus flavored drink), is quickly absorbed, and is not constipating.  Each serving contains 375 mg of calcium (your body can only absorb 300-400 mg at a time) and 500 IU of vitamin D, as well as magnesium, manganese, vitamin C and boron. Start taking now so there is no need for Fosamax in your future! Calcium deficiency has also been linked to PMS and other menstrual problems. This product is also very well-priced at $20 for 90 servings.
