Managing Disease States

Only a licensed physician can prescribe medical foods and or drugs. Physicians now have a new tool to assist them in managing disease states or medical conditions where nutritional or dietary deficiencies are involved.

Medical foods are amino acid based products that can be incorporated into the patient’s condition management plan to manage certain disease states that are caused by dietary deficiencies or nutritional deficiencies or metabolic issues.

Medical foods are a safe and effective way to manage your health. Medical foods are not for everyone. They are meant to be dispensed for patients with disease states and thus must be dispensed by a licensed physician and a prescription.

Medical foods are not supplements, are not an over-the-counter remedy that patients can self-administer, conversely; they are meant to be administered by physicians for patients who meet certain medical criteria associated with dietary deficiencies or nutritional deficiencies.
