Unregulated vitamin supplement prices plummet
Unlike regulated perscription drugs, the cost of dietary supplements has plummeted over the past three decades, for example, when coenzyme Q10 (coQ10) was first intoduced to Americas in 1983, a bottle containing 1,000 mg (100 10-mg capsules) retailed for $30.00 in 2008, the retail price of a bottle containing 5,000 (100 50- mg capsules) of a superior form of coQ10 (ubiquinol) is $58.00 based on milligram potencey alone, the cost in inflation adjusted dollars, for C0Q10 has come down by 83%. When SAMe, the price plummeted to where Life Extension member can obtain 8,000 mgn (20 400-mg Tabs) for only $21.00 thus SAMe now costs 77% less than when it was originally introduced. Perescription drug costs , on the other hand, have skyrocked at a rate that for exceeds inflation, the difference is that perscription drugs are heavily regulated, as opposed to dietary supplements that are sold under free market conditions

The premise of my blog.
The premise of my blog
To collect what the experts are saying in the field of medicine.
Dr. Eric Braverman concept of the Neuro-hormonal-sleep theory.
Dr. Daniel Amen, Dr. Ronald Hoffman, Complimentary Drs.
These men and many others embody the core beliefs that can transform America's health care.
Medical peer review journals, news articles, transcripts from radio programs, websites, collecting data,synthesing it from technical nomenclature to plain speaking.
On a personal note I was a vegetarian for 18 years I stopped being in 2007, after reading Dr. Hofffmans blog on High biological value protien. I now eat organic burgers, chicken, turkey.
Faced with scientific facts, if someone can prove me wrong I will change my course.
And may I say that this blog is truely inspired and dedicated to the two true blue loves of my life, My Father Jared Alverton who died of Metasatic Carcinoma and my Mother Margaret Re who
Died of Alzheimer's. I strive to be a health journalist, to chronicle the life changing ideas of these
Complimentary Physician's who think deeply and whose ideas I find to be an elegant symmetry.
