 As the Director
of Sports Nutrition at Penn State University, I’m in a position to
hear about new health products on a daily basis, from all corners of the
globe. But for the last ten years I’ve been using and supporting Matol
products because none of the other ones I hear or read about come close
to the quality that Matol prides itself in achieving.Matol makes nutritional supplements that make sense in supporting a sound, well-balanced diet. Even as a nutrition expert, I can’t eat perfectly each day. Based on my travel and work schedules, try as I might, both my exercise and diet suffer. I need to pay careful attention to the number of calories I eat and the number I burn with exercise, so my “body’s checking account” is always balanced. As a result, sometimes I can’t get as many calories in as I’d like, which means, without a high quality supplement, such as Matolife™, I would miss out on my RDA (required daily allowance) for many vitamins and minerals. Iron, calcium, and zinc are three minerals I feel I can’t afford to shortchange myself on. So along with Matolife™, I use Matol®/Km® to get additional important minerals (iron, calcium, and potassium). In addition to getting extra minerals from Matol®/Km®, the herbal extracts contribute to a wide variety of protective health features. Suffering from an inflamed sciatic nerve, the anti-inflammatory properties of several herbs in Matol®/Km® played a role in reducing my discomfort. In sharing this knowledge with my physical therapist, his response was so positive that he wanted all of his tendinitis patients to start taking it! What an excellent way to reduce the incidence of over-consumed drugs! My physician wanted me to take 600 mg of ibuprofen four times a day to reduce the inflammation. That’s 2400 mg a day!! Many people know that large amounts of ibuprofen can be tremendously irritating to the digestive tract. In this case, I was able to avoid a “new” problem by increasing my intake of Matol®/Km® and getting positive results without drugs! My goal with all Matol products is to avoid using prescription medications. It seems that herbal based products are gentler on our systems and offer an opportunity to take care of ourselves in a responsible, health promoting way. All of the Matol products are effective. From Biomune OSF™ to the Enzymes, each contributes a piece to the complex puzzle we call “total well-being.” As new products become part of the Matol line, they
all become part of my health routine. They are easy to use, fit my
lifestyle, and assist me in managing my health. |
