Nutritional Supplements and Weight Loss Products – For Roseville and Sacramento

Numerous research studies in recent years have reaffirmed what many medical professionals and bariatric physicians – including Dr. Ed Hendricks – already knew:
everyone should take nutritional supplements to help maintain optimum health. When supplements are taken in conjunction with other weight loss products, dieters on the Low Carbohydrate Diet, Very Low Carbohydrate Diet, or Maintenance Diet can improve health, longevity, fat loss, and long-term weight maintenance. To learn more about the benefits of weight loss products and nutritional supplements, contact our Roseville and Sacramento-area weight loss clinic today.

The Importance of Nutritional Supplements

Although many people, including doctors, nutritionists, and bariatric physicians, once believed that the foods we eat on a daily basis provide us with a sufficient amount of vitamins and minerals, scientific research has shown that this belief is untrue. Taking vitamins and minerals to supplement the daily diet can be very helpful in preventing certain cancers, heart disease, and many degenerative changes. Additionally, nutritional supplements can aid in weight loss and subsequent maintenance. For patients following diets and using weight loss products, nutritional supplements – available at Dr. Hendricks' Sacramento and Roseville-area weight loss clinic – can be particularly beneficial as typical daily food consumption may deprive dieters of proper nutrition.

Two Types of Nutritional Supplements

There are two types of nutritional supplements: those that have a direct effect on both weight loss and health, and those that have an indirect effect on weight loss by improving health. Since bad health and illness impede weight loss and make weight maintenance more difficult, supplemental sources of nutrients and vitamins that improve long-term health can be beneficial for dieters.

Direct effect nutritional supplements include:

  • Multi-vitamins
  • Calcium and vitamin D3
  • Chromium
  • Acetyl L-Carnitine
  • Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA)

Indirect effect nutritional supplements include:

  • Antioxidants
  • Vitamin A
  • Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid)
  • Vitamin E (Alpha and Gamma E Tocopherol)
  • Herbal Antioxidant Formulas
  • Carnosine
  • Alpha Lipolic Acid
  • Marine Lipids (Omega 3-6 Fatty Acids)
  • Melatonin
  • Coenzyme Q10
  • DHEA
