Why Standard Process

Before there’s inflammation there’s a degenerative disease in process. Before there’s degenerative disease there’s disordered nutrition. Disorder: Disrupt the systemic functioning of____________in this case; human health & wellbeing.

Standard Process was founded in 1929 by Dr. Royal Lee, long considered the father of healing using whole food nutrition. Standard Process has no equal in it’s long history and research in the world of nutritional supplement support.

Old School Is Good School

Holism = Holistic = Wholistic
Body Mind Spirit Soul

Holism is a philosophy coined in the 1920s as the organization of nature, and it’s tendency to form wholes that are greater than the sums of all it’s parts through nature’s creative evolution. The term was soon adopted into natural medicine to treat the whole person, rather than a single symptom or part.

Dr. Royal Lee’s foundation of holism seeded his passion to teach healthcare practitioners to guide their patients off the path of degenerative disease through whole food nutrition. He further applied this philosophy to Standard Process Whole Food Nutritional Supplements of which 80% of components are organically grown on their own farm in Wisconsin.

1958 - Dr. Royal Lee writes about the advent of processed foods:

The Great Cover-Up by Dr. Royal Lee

What became clear to me after a few years into my acupuncture practice; if nutrition patterns are insufficient, the healing process using acupuncture takes longer and are less likely to sustain a lasting effect. It’s also important to realize that the older we get, the more attention we have to pay to our nutrition patterns. The earlier we incorporate supportive nutrition into our daily lives, we increase the odds to live healthier longer, extending our healthspan, and better able to adapt and recover from whatever challenges we may meet along our path.

With 27 + years of practice, I have used nearly all of the professional supplement lines; Metagenics, Xymogen, Biotics, Apex, and more. None of these lines meet the non denatured standards and quality of Standard Process, or the continual and comprehensive education
provided on how to prescibe the most supportive protocols for each individual patient.
