We accomplish our mission by providing you access to accurate natural healthcare information and products that we have found most effective for home health care.
One of our goals is to implement the intent of the U.S. Congress as stated in the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994, the "findings" section of which includes the following:
The importance of nutrition and the benefits of dietary supplements to health promotion and disease prevention have been documented increasingly in scientific studies.
There is a growing need for emphasis on the dissemination of information linking nutrition and long-term good health.
Consumers should be empowered to make choices about preventative health care programs based on data from scientific studies of health benefits related to particular dietary supplements.
Dietary supplements are safe within a broad range of intake, and safety problems with the supplements are relatively rare.

Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM), as defined by NCCAM, is a group of diverse medical and health care systems, practices, and products that are not presently considered to be part of conventional medicine. Complementary medicine is used together with conventional medicine. Alternative medicine is used in place of conventional medicine. NutriPhysiology Inc. specializes in that portion of CAM that is most effective for home health care.
