Why Choose Us?

Why choose PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ for your practice: PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ was born out of the realization that the many professional companies offer products that are:

1. NOT as strong as they could be
2. Contain ALLERGENIC ingredients
3. Offer formulas that are NOT comprehensive enough
4. Are COSTLY solutions & require TOO MANY PILLS 
5. Do NOT follow Health Canada's Natural Health Product Regulations or have NPNs (Natural Product Numbers)
These issues result in patients requiring many products to address their concerns, which creates nutrient redundancy, the need for countless pills and a more expensive healthcare solution overall, for the patient. This reduces compliance and the effectiveness of their naturopathic treatment, resulting in unhappy, unwell patients. Furthermore, nutrient redundancies may be detrimental to patients' health, due to potential excesses of various nutrients.

EFFECTIVE PRODUCTS, EFFECTIVE HEALTH
At PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ , we understand that as Naturopathic Physicians, we are only as good as the tools we provide to our patients. These tools must be of the utmost purity and potency, as we are the experts in our field, and our recommendations must reflect this. PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ has scoured the global nutraceutical industry to bring you the best of what science and nature have to offer, at a competitive price. Here are some examples that show how PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ works to improve the concerns of weak, allergenic, costly, non-comprehensive, non-regulated products:

MULTIVITAMIN/MINERAL     
IRON MULTI Support MULTI Support NO IRON
mag_multi_USP(MULTI Support NO IRON Label) * USP (UNITED STATES PHARMACOPEIA) INGREDIENTS are used in PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ Formulations. As physicians, we know that USP grade is of the highest standard, i.e. pharmaceutical grade, which is rarely seen in professional products. This type of superior quality is essential. If you check your current Multivitamin, you will notice that some standards that could have been met, may have not been met. This is because it is illegal to state USP, if the USP standard is not complied with. USP is our minimum standard for applicable ingredients. Some ingredients are not labelled USP, as these ingredients, such as minerals, are not regulated under the USP organization. PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ ensures quality control by verifying for purity, strength, safety and dissolubility by licensed, independent, third party labs, unlike other companies which rely solely on manufacturers & in-house testing. Testing is done to validate all raw materials and finished products. 
* ALBION® MINERALS, used in PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ products, are patented, scientifically designed, pharmaceutical-grade amino acid chelates, rarely seen in professional products. These technologically advance minerals allow for optimal absorption and bioavailability. Albion is renowned for its science, recognized as a world leader and innovator in mineral amino acid chelate nutrition. Years of extensive research, clinical analysis, third-party critiques and careful laboratory manufacturing enable Albion to produce a fully reacted and highly effective chelate. In fact, they are the only chelate manufacturer that can scientifically prove their molecular structure! By identifying a unique "fingerprint" for each molecule developed, PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ knows Albion minerals are what they say they are: true mineral amino acid chelates. 
* BEWARE OF MISLEADING PRODUCT LABELING such as listing medicinal ingredient amounts for six capsules, instead of amounts PER capsule, as required by Health Canada. This inappropriate labeling presentation may result in your patients overestimating the amounts within the product.
PROBIOTICS                        goodbac
 Good Bacteria 30+ Billion
The second example of how PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ demonstrates its product advantages is with its GOOD BACTERIA 30+BILLION + INULIN, as it is a good example of how professional companies cutback on product advantages for financial gain, to the detriment of patients' health: 
 HUMAN ORIGIN STRAINS  (approximately 97% in GOOD BACTERIA 30+BILLION + INULIN) is a prime example of this, as most companies do not use human strain probiotics. Dairy and vegetable origin strains are more of a waste of money to the patient, as they are transient, and the body rejects and expels them within 48 hours, shown in clinical research. Human strains are used by PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ because they provide a much greater, long term health benefit. Although this provides a more cost-effective solution for patients, it is a greater, worthy expense for Physician Research. Human strains are ideal as most implant themselves on specific receptors in human intestines, allowing longer implantation for a more consistent effect. 
 TEN (10) STRAINS (SPECIES)  of probiotics, unlike many professional companies who include only a few strains for financial reasons. However, we feel the greater health benefits to the patient are well worth the expense to PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ . Ten species of clinically researched probiotics are included to ensure optimal health-promoting benefits. Multiple species within probiotic formulations, even those closely related, are crucial given their vastly different physiological properties. Many studies have shown that combining Lactobacillus species are more effective than each isolated species. 
TEN (10) SPECIES of probiotics are included to address a broad demographic from baby, adult to geriatric needs. Although other species of probiotics are available, they are purposefully omitted due to the higher risk of health concerns among various populations. For example, allergenic sources, such as Saccharomyces boulardii (yeast origin), are detrimental to patients allergic or reactive to yeast, and poor implantation strains, such as vegetable or dairy origin strains, are rejected by the body within 2 days, making these sources an expensive source, as there is little long term effect. Quality assurances are verified for purity, strength, safety and dissolubility of enteric coating at intestinal pH by licensed, independent, third party labs, unlike other companies which rely solely on manufacturers & in-house testing. Testing is done to validate all raw materials and finished products. spcr75
 HIGH POTENCY formulations (30+ Billion)  offer greater clinical advantages than lower potency formulas found in other companies' products, and 10-40% survives to enter the small intestine. spcr75
 ACID RESISTANT Veg Capsules  are present to allow the probiotics to survive exposure to stomach acids, ensuring maximum delivery of live microorganisms throughout the intestinal tract. Conversely, probiotics given in the form of loose powder or just encapsulated (not acid resistant) is a waste of money, as the stomach acids destroy the majority of the microorganisms. 
VEGETABLE ORIGIN STRAINS (& Dairy) strains are mostly “transient” and tend to be expelled within 48 hours. This is why PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ uses only one required plant origin strain of probiotic. 
BEWARE OF IMPROPER LABELING as the strain of each bacterial or yeast species in a product must be identified. Eg. Lactobacillus rhamnosus UALR-06. 
milk_thistle BOTANICALS: PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ opts for STANDARDIZED EXTRACTS, as per clinical research, versus whole herbs often chosen by other professional companies as they are a cheaper option. Standardized extracts are carefully selected for maximal impact of formulations, higher therapeutic efficacy and batch reproducibility.  Quality assurances are verified for purity, strength, safety and dissolubility by licensed, independent, third party labs, unlike other companies which rely solely on manufacturers & in-house testing. Testing is done to validate all raw materials and finished products, to include identification, assay of active ingredients, microbial and heavy metal testing, and solvent and pesticide residues for botanicals, to confirm optimal safety profiles. 
RAW MATERIALS: PHYSICIANS RESEARCH™ searches the world over to find superior, innovative ingredients to optimize their progressive, comprehensive, synergistic formulations. Characteristics that exemplify this include:
  • Highest quality raw materials are preferentially selected from leading expert manufacturers.
  • Pharmaceutical grade (USP) & superior bioactive forms of raw materials are chosen for optimal absorption and bioavailability

4. HYPOALLERGENIC - NO GLUTEN, DAIRY, EGG, CORN, SOY, PEANUT, PINEAPPLE, YEAST & SUGAR
Patients come to Naturopathic Physicians to expect a strong, truly hypoallergenic product.  Other companies claim their products are hypoallergenic, and yet make products that include allergens such yeast, soy, corn, and pineapple. We thoroughly scrutinize every aspect of our materials from binders, fillers, excipients, capsules, medicinal & non-medicinal ingredients to bring you what your patients need - the strongest & purest.

5. FULL PRODUCT LINE in 20 FORMULATIONS:  1 PRODUCT per HEALTH CATEGORY means LESS PILLS REQUIRED 
Patients are happier as they require less products and less capsules to swallow, which makes life easier, and your health plan more cost effective.

6. MULTI-ACTION PRODUCTS ie. 5 PRODUCTS in 1
Save Time & Money for with MULTI-ACTION formulations. Researched doses of many ingredients are used in a single formula, addressing many related issues in patients with a particular condition. Nutrient redundancy is minimized with multi-action products, protecting patients from potential excesses of various nutrients.
Examples of Multi-Action Products:

Good Bacteria 30+ Billion:
Broad spectrum, hypoallergenic, human strains, acid resistant vegetarian capsules for an all-encompassing probiotic formulation, beneficial for all demographics including babies, adults and geriatrics.

Healthy Heart & Brain Support:
Deals with Diabetes, Hypertension, Hypercholesterolemia, Cardiovascular disease and Cognitive dysfunction. These issues are often present in the same patient. Instead of 5 products, Healthy Heart & Brain Support affects all of these in one innovative, potent formulation.

Tissue Pro: Addresses the health of the liver and eye tissue, and is beneficial for preventative health also, using varied antioxidants from standardized extracts of botanicals.

Mens Health: Addresses BPH, low libido, low testosterone & sexual dysfunction, as it contains a unique botanical combination not used in any existing formulation.
