Why Choose Clinician's Choice?

The Clinicians Choice brand was founded in 1999 to make supplements that are safe and consistent with scientific developments in the field of nutrition. It is impossible for any one person to keep up with the abundant influx of nutritional information and knowledge discovery on the human body – especially if they do not have constant access to credible information and possess the medical expertise to understand its implications.

Clinicians Choice™ nutritionists, scientists, and medical doctors are the cornerstone of our company’s knowledge base that distinguishes between real science and fad remedies. Like you, we have made a lifelong commitment to nutrition. Our medical and nutrition specialists are available to help you before and after you try our products - addressing dietary needs for both males and females through the different stages of life – and constantly improving the following five main aspects of making nutraceuticals: Ingredients, Formulation, Manufacturing, Support and Proof:

Ingredients

Over 75% of ingredients found in supplement products sold in the United States today originate outside of the country, without intimate knowledge of the composition of the lands used to grow them. It is no wonder that an assay of many popular supplement brands show unacceptable contaminants such as Arsenic, Lead, Mercury and even radioactive material such as Uranium. There is no safe level for such toxic contaminants for the human body.

Clinician’s Choice™ begins by identifying, testing and securing the safest global nutritional raw ingredients, favoring domestic suppliers whenever possible. Our periodic batch inspections verify that toxic contaminants in the ingredients we use as well as our final products, are either non-existent or at lower levels than the Federal Standards allowed by the US Food & Drug Administration and even the more stringent standards allowed by the State of California. Harmless water-based coating - not solvents - is used, in very thin layers to avoid unpleasant smell and taste, while ensuring rapid dissolution and absorption into the body. Vitamins used in our products must strictly meet USP (United States Pharmacopoeia) standards. Minerals used in our products are limited to USP, NF, or FCC standards. In addition, all vitamins and minerals must pass rigid testing requirements as far as potency, micro and physical characteristics.

Formulation

Nutritional needs vary based on gender, age and condition. Furthermore, the human body has limitations when it comes to how much of a particular vitamin, mineral or herb it can metabolize at any one time. Most popular supplements do not cater their formulations to the important aforementioned variables. Nutritional science is constantly evolving and dynamic, while most supplement brands remain static and unchanged. In addition, a danger lies with popular "megadose" supplements that contain excessive amounts of vitamins such as A, C & E. Although most people understand the benefits of certain vitamins, minerals and herbs, many do not know when and how much should be taken. Countless patients experience serious side effects and illnesses by mixing off-the shelf vitamins and herbal remedies with their prescribed medications.

Essentially calorie free, Clinician’s Choice™ supplements are continuously modified based on the most current scientific research as well as the expertise of our Scientific Advisory Board (SAB). Our SAB consists of the finest Medical Doctors, Scientists and PhD Nutritionists in the United States, each with their own area of specialization. Our products are developed with expert knowledge of the human body’s nutritional needs and its metabolic limitations – for different genders, conditions, and time of day at different stages of life. Knowing which ingredients help each other succeed in getting absorbed by the body more efficiently ensures our customers receive the promised nutritional benefits they are paying for. Designed as a family of products to be taken safely together, Clinicians Choice™ pays particular attention to dosage levels based on credible studies showing which ingredients have adverse effects when taken in excess or in conjunction with others.

Manufacturing

Vitamins, minerals and herbs are not regulated by the US Food & Drug Administration. Therefore, supplement brands are not required to subject themselves to many of the rigid over-the-counter (OTC) pharmaceutical grade manufacturing standards, which ensure ingredient consistency, bioavailability & potency as well as contaminant-free manufacturing environments. Tests on many popular brands continue to reveal that nutrient content varies greatly from pill-to-pill, and from bottle-to-bottle. In addition, lesser manufacturing standards such as GMP do not require important steps such as inbound micro testing on nutritional raw materials prior to shipping and beginning-to-end batch recording.

Clinician’s Choice™ supplements are manufactured in facilities that produce the highest quality, over-the-counter (OTC) pharmaceuticals in the USA. The latter ensures that our products are made to the highest standards available today with USP (United States Pharmacopoeia) dissolution criteria guaranteeing our supplements will dissolve properly within 30-45 minutes of ingestion. Our self-imposed standards provide comfort to our customers that what they read on our labels will actually be in every tablet and in every bottle. Quality control performs in-process testing for consistency (weighing tablets every 10 minutes to make sure they are all the same), uniformity prior to manufacturing (blending tablets well), hardness and friability. Each step is continuously recorded in batch records and our standard operating procedures require that all raw materials received into the facility have a micro test and a certificate of authenticity from the vendor for complete traceability.

Support

Most supplement brands sell their products yet offer little support should their customers have questions specific to their age, gender, or condition.

Clinician’s Choice™ believes in supporting its customers before, during and after they purchase our family of products. We accomplish this with a staff of nutritionists and medical doctors always available to assist you with your questions free of charge. Quarterly newsletters keep our customers informed of major developments in the industry as well as if any adjustments have been made to our formulations as a result. Our company aims to develop a lifelong and supportive partnership with its customers as they aim to live a longer and healthier life.

Proof

Many supplement companies use quick tests to demonstrate a person’s nutrient deficiencies. Unfortunately, no test exists today that instantly and comprehensively verify people’s nutritional deficiencies.

Complementing your diet with nutritional supplements is a lifetime commitment, so it is important to know if they are really working. Annual or semi-annual blood testing is the cornerstone of any scientific program designed to help you live a longer and healthier life. Begin by talking to your doctor - or a lab facility - about getting your complete blood work done. Besides detecting nutrient deficiencies, you will establish a biomarker that will tell you if your supplements are really helping you. For over a decade, Clinician’s Choice™ supplements have clearly proven, to its customers and referring doctors, their ability to show clear, visible and progressive results via thorough blood tests.
