	:: OH-VITAMIN D BLOOD TEST & VITAMIN D ::
Vitamin D Synergy » (therapeutic vitamin D3) by Designs for Health contains Vitamin D3 (As Cholecalciferol) 2000 IU; Vitamin K (as Phytonadione) 200mcg. Testing is the only way to know how much D you have and the only way to monitor D supplementation. As actions of a pro-hormone are essential to health and life, 'guessing' or 'assuming' is not a wise way to determine optimal levels. We recommend that you get the OH-vitamin D blood test and see where your levels are and adjust your dosage of Vitamin D3 depending on your results. People who take at least 5000 IU a day have reported that they do not get sick over the winter months!

	:: BLOOD SUGAR SUPPORT by Clair Whiteman, Nutritionist/Technical Advisor for Biogenesis ::

AGEs are now viewed as » (JOIN OUR FREE NEWSLETTER TO BE ELIGIBLE!)

	:: THE PRESERVATION OF ANTIOBIOTICS FOR MEDICAL TREATMENT ACT ::
Limit Use of Non-Therapeutic Antibiotics in Food Animals in the United States » H.R. 1549/S. 619—The Preservation of Antibiotics for Medical Treatment Act. The Preservation of Antibiotics for Medical Treatment Act (PAMTA), H.R. 1549/S. 619 would phase out, within two years of enactment, the common practice of continually feeding antibiotics important in human medicine to non-sick food animals. Livestock and poultry producers misuse these life-saving drugs. They feed them to animals not to treat disease, but to accelerate growth and prevent the onset of diseases caused directly by the overcrowded and unsanitary conditions prevalent in intensive farming. An estimated 70% of antibiotics and related drugs produced in this country are used in animal agriculture for preventative, non-therapeutic purposes. It is important to note that the PAMTA will not hinder the use of antibiotics to treat sick animals. What you can do is »
