Vitamins and Supplements

     As most of you know, I feel there is great value using vitamins and supplements in treatment and prevention plans.  Many of you feel the same way and often prefer such agents to more traditional regimens.  There are some drawbacks, however.  Among them are cost, assurances about quality, confusion among brands, and complexity of regimens.  I've intiated some measures to help minimize these issues and plan to expand options over time to further simplify the challenges of taking vitamins and supplements.

     I've partered with an online dispensary, www.naturaldispensary.com.  This site carries thousands of products from a wealth of high quality companies, many of which are normally only available through a physician's office.  I've decided to make the entire product line available for you to view and purchase, since many of you already have specific preferences and knowledge about which agents you want to take.  I'll likely recommend specific brands or products offered through this dispensary to ease what can often be an overwhelming task of going to the vitamin store and finding a product.  To view and purchase products from www.naturaldispensary.com, please see the following instructions.

  1. Go to www.naturaldispensary.com
  2. In the center of the page, click on "First Time Website Users Not Registered? Click Here"
  3. Fill out information for free acount
  4. You'll need to enter my name: David Gordon and my PIN #: NDS-10611

That is it.

     Second, for certain products that I prefer above all others for certain situations, I plan to carry a limited supply in the office which will be available for purchase.  AS I become more familiar with specific brands and agents.  I may expand product availability.  This option has the benefit of each of us knowing exactly what you are purchasing and taking, along with the ease and convenience of not having to make an extra stop.  At this time, I will only be carrying a group of neurologic and hormonal modulating supplements that I'll use in conjunction with testing through a compnay called NeuroScience.

     Finally, there are a variety of excellent vitamin and supplement stores in Denver.  I have the most comfort and familiarity with Vitamin Cottage.  Frequently, during office visits or on the website, I will mention specific brands or products that I know they carry.

     I appreciate feedback on specific brands and companies with which you have had good expereiences.  Likewise, I welcome suggestions on how I might assist in simplifying the process of recommending various vitamin and supplement products.
