Nutraceuticals Program

Nutraceuticals are naturally occurring food supplements that help correct nutrient issues and profoundly impact your health. Every study of the American diet reveals a sub-optimal intake of many micronutrients. As a result, degenerative diseases related to diet and nutrient deficiencies are a major killer, worldwide. Nutraceutical supplementation is not an indulgence – it’s imperative to arm the body with the weapons to battle modern enemies.

Not all supplements are on equal footing. Cenegenics Nutraceuticals are “pharmaceutical grade”, meaning that the quality of the product is substantially higher that the “food grade” supplements sold in many stores. Our supplements are made with raw ingredients that are the most pure and the best absorbed in the body. They meet pharmaceutical specifications for potency and bioavailability (the extent to which a nutrient or medication can be used by the body), and are made especially for us by one of the most respected pharmaceutical labs in the country.

Cenegenics Nutraceuticals are always fresh as well as free of allergens and filler material, ensuring quality and purity. Nutraceuticals, along with a sound nutrition program, can help your body fight chronic disease, ward off illness, and improve immune function.

NY Times Article Explores Cenegenics as the New Weapon Against Aging

Many of us, particularly the hard driving Type A individuals, claim they need only 6 hours of sleep to be productive. Unfortunately, most are likely fooling themselves. A recent study at the University of California-San Francisco published in Science has identified a genetic mutation that causes individuals to need only 6 hours of sleep nightly. This gene runs in families and only occurs in 3% of individuals.

For the rest of us, 7-8 ½ hours are required for both health and productivity. Most of us are building a large and dangerous sleep debt. Individuals with chronic sleep deprivation are likely to have increased motor vehicle accidents as well as short term memory, focus and attention issues. Depression and inability to control appetite are also associated with inadequate sleep. Lastly, obesity and increased vascular inflammation have been linked to poor sleep quantity and quality. Obviously, adequate sleep is a huge preventive medicine issue.

The good news? Researchers are working on a compound that could mimic the gene mutation. Until then, listen to your mother and get 8 hours of sleep.
