Vitamin Formula Helps Women Taking Menopause Hormone Replacement

Houston,Texas (PRWEB) May 14, 2007 -- During Women's Health Week, which began yesterday, women are more aware of the many menopause hormone therapy solutions available, such as bio-identical or prescription hormones, according to two physicians who specialize in treating women's health issues with supplements designed to complement prescription medications.



"If a woman chooses to take hormone replacement during or after menopause, these hormones may deplete important nutrients from the body, adding another area of concern to their long term use," says Dr. Don Ford, an internal medicine physician in Sugar Land, Texas. "Replacing lost nutrients optimizes the benefit of the hormone therapy and minimizes adverse effects." Along with Dr. Peter Osborne, who has a doctorate in nutrition, Dr. Ford has focused his energies on helping his patients restore their nutritional health through creation of a supplement line called NutraMD.

"Our product line is focused on patients' health problems which require prescription medication," says Dr. Ford. "These include menopause, cardiovascular disease risk factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol or triglycerides, and diabetes, osteoporosis, acid reflux or GERD, arthritis, and child bearing age women on birth control pills. We find that women are more aware of their health problems and especially during menopause, are willing to take steps to restore a healthy balance. "

"Women have individual health needs which are especially acute in the child-bearing and menopause years," says Dr. Ford, who counsels his patients to maintain their health by using specific vitamin supplements designed to work alongside their prescription medications.

While many women take a daily multi-vitamin and calcium supplement to keep their health in balance, the physicians believe that women have specific health needs that are not fully addressed by taking only these supplements. "Estrogen, progesterone and birth control prescriptions often deplete essential vitamins and minerals that a woman needs to stay in balance," according to Dr Osborne.

"We developed Contraceptive Hormone Therapy EN (essential nutrients) and Menopause EN supplement products to address the depletion of Vitamins C, B-2, B-6, B-12, folic acid and magnesium caused by prescription medications," says Dr. Osborne. "For example, inadequate levels of B-2 and B-6 have been shown in medical studies to cause migraine headaches, fatigue, and thyroid disease. Our supplements are specifically designed to restore these nutrients."

"Today's female patient is more aware of the side effects of taking prescription medications. They know more about osteoporosis, high cholesterol and heart disease risk and are willing to take proactive steps to maintain their health," according to Dr. Ford. "Female baby-boomers are highly educated and want to stay active during the menopause years. They are willing to take responsibility for their health through lifestyles which includes a balanced diet, exercise, and nutritional supplements."

NutraMD offers a line of supplements that also includes Menopause EN, Hormone Therapy EN, Cardiovascular EN, Calcium/Magnesium EN, Arthritis EN, and Antacid EN. "At NutraMD, our goal is to raise awareness among doctors and their patients that there is a vitamin and mineral solution which maximizes the benefits, while reducing the risks of prescription medications," says Dr. Osborne who has spent hundreds of hours researching the problem and gives seminars to healthcare professionals on the nutritional depletions caused by prescription medication.

There are many supplement lines available to the general public and NutraMD wants to establish and maintain the highest standards. As a result, their vitamin and mineral supplements maintain quality standards by being manufactured at a GMP certified lab. GMP refers to Good Manufacturing Practices federal regulations which insure a quality approach to manufacturing medical products that are safe, pure and effective.
