Orthomolecular Therapy

The human organism contains a plethora of natural substances; some of these materials are produced by the body itself, however, the majority must be attained through nourishment. Vitamins, antioxidants, minerals, micronutrients, essential and unsaturated fatty acids, amino acids and enzymes all play a central role in determining our health. If the concentration of any one of these substances is off-balance, then deficiency symptoms and illness can occur as a result.

In times of increased stress and illness, the amount of the previously listed substances that we consume in our daily food becomes insufficient (staple foods have lost their nutrient density over the last few decades)! With illness, the minimal requirement of several trace elements and vitamins may increase up to a hundredfold.

Additionally, in many illnesses, the intestines are unable to sufficiently and correctly break down the micronutrients, therefore providing the organism with a mere fragment of the consumed, essential micronutrients. Oftentimes, a slight change in the intestinal flora or infection with Candida (a fungal disease), prevents the absorption of these vital nutrients, necessitating intestinal cleansing.

During fertility treatment, it is especially important to ensure that the organism is sufficiently supplied with the essential nutrients.
