Nutrition is Key, Wherever You Practice

We face real challenges as we seek to upgrade our patient care to include recommendations for nutrient supplements for the patients who need them. As clinicians, we need speed, reliability, and actionable solutions. Supplement-Sciences.com was created by a registered dietitian with exactly this in mind. We offer complete “done-for-you” supplement plans through the HIPAA-compliant Fullscript ordering platform.

These plans are instantly accessible through our /Plans page and link directly back to our detailed nutrient articles. You can always count on a dietitian’s “Food First” philosophy, complete with the PubMed references, and the drug-nutrient interaction information that we need as medical providers.

The Supplement-Sciences.com website and Fullscript resources are integrated in such a way as to meet the unique needs of clinicians working across the entire spectrum of healthcare settings. Supplement Sciences supplement templates offer a quick starting place with supplement resources for any healthcare setting–outpatient, hospital, SNF, rehab, or private practice.

The Challenges of Recommending Supplements

If you are like most healthcare providers, you haven’t paid much attention to the topic of supplements. It’s overwhelming. It’s an under-regulated industry full of marketing hype. There are hundreds of supplements you don’t have time to learn about. The headlines are overblown. The science keeps changing. And, more than anything, you are focused on getting your patients to eat better–“Food First”!

And yet, our patients believe passionately in natural and nutrition-based approaches to their health problems. They want to avoid drugs and often with good reason. Some are extremely savvy and scientifically literate. Others desperately need our help to distinguish between supplements with proven science and the mountain of nonsense where the supplement is harmless but isn’t worth the cost.

And then, there are all the supplements where you read a great study showing that the supplement works, and then check another source that says, “There’s no good evidence….”. But it’s probably news to most of us that in healthcare “most interventions (94%) were not supported by high-quality evidence.” [PMID: 35447356]

This is why it is so critical to have a resource like Supplement-Sciences.com, where the emphasis is on revealing the science that does exist today. We cover the evidence for each specific benefit of each supplement as it relates to each health issue. This puts the clinician and the consumer in the driver’s seat by providing readers with comprehensive information that can be evaluated for its relevance to the individual.

Supplement Sourcing Matters

Fullscript is an online supplement formulary that has been focused on the needs of healthcare providers for years. Here’s what makes them different from other online sources:

Vetting of Product Quality: Fullscript’s core mission is to meet the needs of healthcare providers. Their vast experience, inside information, and feedback from healthcare providers puts them in a uniquely trusted position to vet supplement products.
HIPAA Compliant: Fullscript is a fully HIPAA-compliant platform.
Quick Access to Templates and “Favorite” Supplements: Your Supplement Sciences Fullscript shop comes with complete supplement plans for everything from fatty liver to sports. Here’s a list.
Convenient Smartphone Apps: Your patients can easily download the Fullscript app to their smartphone, making finding nutritional recommendations simple. No more searching email for your recommendations.

The Supplement-Sciences.com Website

Quick Search Results: No more time-consuming Google searches. From the front page of the Supplement-Sciences.com website, the user can search all of our 460+ articles. Whether you are looking for all the facts on a single supplement or every supplement to consider for a particular health problem, you will immediately be directed to all the articles that match your search.
Actionable Purchase Recommendations: Within each supplement article, Fullscript template, and favorites list are specific products that were chosen after a thorough search of the entire formulary. They are selected based on the optimal form of the supplement as well as dosage and cost considerations.
PubMed Documentation: The way each article and Fullscript template is written provides links directly with PubMed references. This means that when patients print out articles to consult with medical providers about supplements, there will be links to PubMed documentation for the rationale of each supplement they are considering. This is a great way to educate physicians who might otherwise poo-hoo the value of nutrient supplements.
Drug-Nutrient Interactions: Clinicians need the ability to check drug-nutrient interactions quickly. This is why each Supplement-Sciences.com article prominently displays drug-supplement interactions before presenting products for purchase. We make these easy to check by linking to these articles from within each of the Fullscript templates.
Ad-Free Experience: Consistent with your busy clinical work, this website’s objective is to provide clear and quickly accessible supplement education. Other consumer-focused websites, on the other hand, are designed to sell ads. This means articles are written to entertain and keep you on their site longer rather than to present the facts with clarity.
