Opti Supplements:
My vision has always been to transform the practice of medicine and part of fulfilling that vision has been to partner with companies that offer products that deliver evidence-based, high-quality nutritional solutions.
My quality Opti products consistently deliver results. We use superior raw materials in each product, and all are rigorously test in a state-of-the-art, in-house laboratory to ensure purity, strength and composition.
While all Opti products are tremendous, there are several that are particularly close to my heart. The first is Opti Biotic to keep your gut healthy. Many of my patients are surprised to learn that the majority of your immune system resides in your gut, so taking care of the intestinal tract is very important. Processed foods like high fructose corn syrup set off an inflammatory response, and over time, as that prolonged response keeps going, the inflammation can lead to leaky gut and other issues. When the gut lining is not as resilient as it should be, foreign invaders creep in and cause a range of issues.
The probiotics in Opti Biotic are expertly formulated to rebalance your gut’s good bacteria. You digest food better, and inflammation is kept at bay. This product provides has several strains of microbes that provide broad-spectrum protection. If you’re not taking a probiotic on a regular basis, consider Opti Biotic. You’ll be glad you did, and you’ll notice the difference.

Opti Stress and Opti Energy we promote together on one day because although they are both for stress, each one is for an individual type of stress.
Stress levels are on the rise. You know it, and I see it in my clinic. Increased screen time, poor diets, less exercise, and uncertainty about the world we live in all contribute. Stress is amplified by insufficient sleep, lack of downtime and relaxation. Slow deterioration of your energy and higher intake of caffeine are indicators that your stress will eventually catch up to you.
Higher stress causes a decline in focus, lower energy and fatigue, leaving you tired. Your body naturally tries to fend off the stress, which initially leaves you wired, but over the long run exhausts your reserves — making it more difficult for you to function at a high level. Crashing is common, yet unnecessary. Strengthen your stress response, support your circadian rhythm and build your reserves with our stress solution!
Whether you are wired or tired, we have the solution to become more resilient to stress, have quicker recovery from fatigue, clearer thinking, and be focused and alert.

Opti Stress Support is a blend of nutrients specifically formulated to counteract the negative effects of daily stress on the body. I recommend one capsule twice a day for stress reduction. Once your stress is under control, you can take one capsule in the morning for stress maintenance.

Over time, unaddressed stress can lead to the third stage of the body’s stress response, which is exhaustion. I see many patients who say they have no energy and no motivation to accomplish anything. Extended periods of stress create a great burden on the body, and also create imbalances in cortisol and DHEA. All of this results in the signs so characteristic of stage 3 stress – physical and mental fatigue, poor memory, irritability and decreased immunity to fight disease. I tell patients that they need to be strong and resilient, and Opti Energy Support would aid in that.

Opti Mune
What is immune readiness exactly? Now that September is rolling around, think of immune readiness as a fall tuneup. Get more sleep and regular exercise. Minimize stress. Maintain a healthy weight. Don’t smoke and drink alcohol only in moderation. Eat a diet loaded with fruits and vegetables. However, even with a great diet, your body still needs specific nutrients to keep your immune system primed, prepared and ready for action. Filling your body’s important nutrient needs will build up those immune reserves. Nutrients can prepare your body for both surveillance and action. My OptiMune supplement has the optimum blend of vitamin D, vitamin C and zinc paired with the plant flavonoid quercetin and n-acetyl cysteine (NAC) to make your immune system ready for anything, for as long as you need it. It is convenient; you don’t have to buy five separate supplements. The OptiMune option is also affordable and is safe for long-term use. It contains no herbs that may stimulate a sensitive immune system; elderberry is one of those examples. Overall, I love elderberry, but it can create issues in people with sensitive immune systems. I think of OptiMune as the “perfect blueprint for immune readiness”. It should definitely be part of your immune arsenal. My team is happy to get you immune-ready.

Opti Omega Kids
Do your kids eat fish three or more times per week? Probably not. They might even think fish is yucky! Fried fish sticks probably don’t count, because these foods are often overcooked in preparation, so the nutrients are destroyed.
Your kids will greatly benefit from a high-quality fish oil supplement. Our bodies don’t make omega-3s, so we must intake them through the diet, but adults and kids alike don’t get nearly enough. Fish and vegetables, as well as seeds and nuts, are great sources, but these are usually not high on a kid’s list of foods he or she likes. To complicate matters, the American diet is high – often excessively high – in omega-6s, which can promote whole-body inflammation.
Because our diets are usually quite low in omega-3s, we must build reserves, and that means intake of specific omega-3s like EPA, DHA and DPA. Both DHA and EPA are important omega-3s, and DPA acts as an intermediary between the two. Having all three means you will boost your child’s overall omega-3 reserves. Once you reach an optimum level, your body will be better at maintaining a normal inflammatory balance.
Omega-3s are called essential fatty acids; they are essential because we can’t produce them on our own, and also essential for a number of bodily functions such as brain development, healthy joints, and proper blood flow.
Adults have always heard that omega-3s are important, but children also need adequate amounts. One of the best things you can do for your kids is to give them the essential cornerstones of human nutrition. Omega-3s are a big part of that. I use Opti Omega Kids, a superior high-quality product that is manufactured in the optimum way for maximum absorption and incorporation within the body. I also love that it is Eurofin certified, meaning that it has no metals or other contaminants.
In my years as a doctor, I have seen many a kid who has difficulty – or downright refuses – to take or swallow pills. Fortunately, Opti Omega Kids is a chewable form that contains the appropriate amounts of DHA and EPA for your child’s growing body and mind. Better yet, this supplement has no fishy taste or smell, like many fish oil supplements do. It is a great tasting orange fruity flavor that kids love.

Opti Digestive Support
Chronic overuse of certain medications may contribute to side effects stemming from low acid production, including poor mineral absorption and poor absorption of B12. In addition, an estimated 30% of Americans suffer from low levels of acidity. The depletion of stomach acidity due to medications and age are further compounded by the age-related decline of enzyme production which both influence the breakdown of foods into absorbable nutrients. This can lead to suboptimal nutritional status of certain vitamins and minerals and insufficient enzyme activation in the stomach.
Supports Healthy Digestion and Maximizes Nutrient Absorption
- Targeted Enzyme Support for Food Sensitivities
- Designed to Enhance the Benefits of a Plant-Rich Diet
- Stimulates the Release and Production of Natural Digestive
Enzymes in the Pancreas - Supports Gastric Acid Balance and Digestive Function
Because of our hectic lifestyle, and the way we often consume food that is frequently overcooked, digestion can often be less than optimal. Poor digestion can produce bloating and occasional gas, cramping, diarrhea or constipation, and even lead to incomplete digestion of food proteins that have been linked to food sensitivities.
Conversely, more thorough digestion of foodstuffs with enzymes prevents foods from being fermented in the gut and the proliferation of “bad” bacteria and yeast at the expense of “good” intestinal bacteria.
More complete digestion of carbohydrates removes the food source for these bad organisms. Another benefit of enzymes is that more nutrition can be derived from food. In addition, regular bowel movements result from this better digestion. Opti Digestive Support is specifically designed to support digestion and help unlock more nutrition from food.
Opti Digestive Support is a comprehensive blend of acid-resistant, plant-based enzymes designed to help maximize the digestion and absorption of nutrients from food. Sustaining a Plant-Rich Diet
_______________________________________________________________
Opti Digestive Support offers additional support for those who have difficulty digesting plant-based foods. Optimal breakdown of plant cell walls is complex and nutrients contained within the cell walls can be difficult to absorb for this reason, CereCalase®, pectinase, xylanase, cellulose, glucoamylase and alphagalactosidase, plant enzymes not produced in the body, are added to the formula.
The addition of CereCalase® assists in the breakdown of plant cell walls and helps to release trapped nutrients from plant materials. Alpha-galactosidase is also included for difficult-to-digest foods such as beans, legumes, and cruciferous vegetables, to help people maintain a plant-rich diet.
Both animal and human trials indicate that the supplementation of phytase helps release these nutrients and improve the nutrition of the consumer. Furthermore, a large portion of the fibrous components of botanicals are composed of non-starchy polysaccharides (NSPs), the primary ones being hemicelluloses and beta-glucans.
These two compounds can alter the transit times of foods, bind digestive enzymes, and trap essential plant constituents. Enzymes which degrade these components have been shown to improve the digestibility and nutrient profiles of plant foods and products. Gentian and artichoke are also added to help stimulate the body’s own digestive processes to help achieve optimal digestive capacity.
Gentian Root and Artichoke
Herbalists have used bitters, including gentian, to stimulate natural digestive enzymes in the mouth and stomach for hundreds of years. Studies have shown that artichoke, categorized as a choleretic, stimulates the body’s natural production of bile, which is responsible for emulsifying fats in our diets.
Artichoke also increases the surface area of fats, which allows enzymes to more efficiently break them down. Artichoke and gentian root provide an excellent vegetarian alternative to ox bile, which is traditionally used in digestive supplements to support bile production.

Opti Omega
A cornerstone of my medical practice is teaching my patients about optimum nutrition. Almost every patient is deficient in one or more nutrients, and without these essential elements, you won’t have optimum health.
One of the cornerstones of nutrition is omega-3 fatty acids. However, all fish oils are not created equal. My private label Opti Omega provides the trifecta of fatty acids: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and docosapentaemoic acid (DPA). All three of these are in each soft gel capsule. They are natural triglycerides, the preferred form for superior absorption. Vitamin E (as mixed tocopherols) is also added as a much-needed vitamin and stabilizer of the oils. Opti Omega is a high-concentration fish oil sourced from waters off the Chilean coast, the world’s least industrialized coastline. As a result, these cold, fresh waters provide the cleanest, most sustainable source of fish in the world. This exclusive fish oil is purified, vacuum distilled, and independently tested to ensure heavy metals, pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are removed to undetectable levels. I’m proud to offer this product to you.
Omega-3 fatty acids are called “essential” because the body needs them but we cannot produce them on our own. The only way to get them is to consume sufficient quantities of the right fats, but most of us won’t get enough through diet, so that is where supplementation comes in.
Omega-3s have a whole host of positive effects on the body: they benefit cardiovascular health, support healthy brain function and cognition, and have also been proven to maintain a healthy inflammatory response.
There are over 10,000 published studies in the last three decades showing the long history of safety and efficacy of EPA and DHA derived from fish oil. When you take omega-3s, achieving the proper balance is an important health strategy. The American Heart Association recommends up to 4 g of omega-3 fatty acids per day to keep blood lipids at a healthy level.
Opti Omega is one of the Friday Favorites this week. We are offering it at 15% off with promo code DRT15, and premium members will get 20% off with code VIP20. Make omega fatty acids a cornerstone of your health today.

Opti Vitamin D 5,000 or 50,000 (the only diff is dosage)
Most Americans are deficient in vitamin D. There’s not enough dietary intake these days. The body requires sunlight to convert vitamin D into its active form, so if you don’t get enough sun, you probably don’t have enough vitamin D.
Vitamin D plays a crucial role in many of the body’s immune responses. This became extremely clear during the pandemic and people with higher levels of vitamin D generally did not succumb to the virus. Immune cells have receptors that synthesize the active form of vitamin D that the body needs. Once synthesized, the body uses vitamin D to boost immune activity and maintain a normal inflammatory balance. It also helps maintain normal blood levels of calcium and phosphorus, two minerals crucial to many body functions. I see many patients who, for a variety of reasons, don’t maintain adequate vitamin D levels and I recommend Opti Vitamin D 50,000IU because it is ideal for anyone who is struggling to maintain peak vitamin D levels. For example, my elderly patients often have absorption problems, as do my patients who are overweight because elevated BMI impairs vitamin D circulation.
For an immediate boost, Opti Vitamin D 50,000 is your go-to product. It’s safe, it’s convenient, and it’s effective.

Opti Biotic
It’s true, your intestinal tract is home to much of your immune system. Therefore I tell all my patients to strive for the healthiest gut possible.
Limiting or eliminating processed foods is a great start. Why? Because these processed foods set off an inflammatory response. Quite often the gut doesn’t recognize foods like this, simply because they are not natural and organic. High fructose corn syrup is a common culprit, as are processed meats and artificial sweeteners and food color additives. The gut lining interprets this artificial ingredient as something that is attacking the gut.
Repeatedly eating these foods keeps the inflammatory response going. Your body is literally fighting these foods as if they were an infection. The gut is in continual dysbiosis, meaning your natural gut microflora is always “off”. To lower the stress on your body, work towards having a healthy, inflammation-free gut.
Probiotics are a big part of achieving and maintaining a healthy gut because they work to rebalance the good bacteria in the gut, so that food is properly digested. The good bacteria also help to maintain the gut lining’s mucosal surface as a defense barrier to foreign agents. Restoration of the gut microflora to balanced levels reduces intestinal inflammation, and that is a very good thing.
But you need the right probiotic, and there is none better than Opti Biotic. First, you need broad spectrum protection with multiple microbe strains that work together to reinforce your microbiome, strengthen your gut lining, and assist a faster and better immune response. Next, the probiotic must be able to withstand the harsh environment of the gut. Our product uses an advanced encapsulation technology to protect the probiotics from the moisture and heat of the gut environment, preserving them until they are ready to be released in the GI system for maximum benefit.
Remember that inflammation is the root cause of many diseases, and chronic inflammation often resides in the gut. Keep inflammation at bay with Opti Biotic, my premier private label probiotic blend. Reliable. Effective. Trusted by clinicians. Backed by research.

Another for Opti Biotic:
Most people today have gut linings that are porous and weak. This is called leaky gut syndrome and when the gut lining is not as resilient as it should be, foreign invaders creep in and cause a range of issues.
How do you keep these foreign invaders out? Lots of factors contribute to leaky gut, including excess stress, certain medications, nutrient deficiencies and poor diet.
You are trying to achieve eubiosis, or a healthy gut balance. However, over 500 different strains of bacteria, both good and bad, compete for nutrients within the gut. Dysbiosis, or an imbalance, can occur. In fact, most people are in dysbiosis because they don’t have enough good microbes or they have too many bad ones.
Probiotics can help because they deliver good, active organisms that promote a healthy gut in an effort to achieve eubiosys. My private label Opti Biotic is a unique probiotic formula that not only protects the integrity of the intestinal lining but also boosts immune function. It contains several highly researched microorganisms that all work in tandem to restore this microflora balance. Importantly, these strains are chosen for their ability to survive inside the gut, which does have a fairly harsh environment.
When the gut is finely balanced, very few symptoms exist. Probiotics are known to have very broad gastrointestinal and immune effects, and there is none better than Opti Biotic.

Opti Quercetin
Before the pandemic, many of my patients did not realize how important zinc and quercetin are. These are two essential elements that the body needs. Not only does the immune system need zinc, but this mineral is important to the skin, the gut, the skeletal system, the central nervous system and the reproductive system. Dietary intake is important, but the diet must have sufficient animal protein like poultry, red meat, oysters and seafood. You don’t need a lot of zinc, but most people don’t consume it regularly. This is why supplements with high bioavailability are crucial. The body doesn’t store excess zinc, either. Zinc helps the body make DNA and proteins, and it aids in important biological functions like thyroid function and blood clotting. It’s important for healthy vision and it helps us taste and smell properly. Importantly, zinc is an antiviral agent and blocks viruses from replicating.
Quercetin has been in the news a lot lately, regarding its use in curing (a certain virtually innocuous virus I’m sure you’ve heard mentioned a time or two…) which is very controversial at this point in time. But I thought it would be a good time to explain what it is and what quercetin is good for, and what it has been used for, so that you can all make an informed decision if the need should arise.
Quercetin gives color to fruits, flowers and vegetables, but it is also a very important antioxidant in humans. Quercetin removes free radicals which can damage or even kill cells. As such, quercetin provides amazing immune support. Quercetin actually enhances zinc’s performance and paves the way for zinc to enter infected cells. Quercetin has also been shown to significantly inhibit the binding of the spike proteins to human cells, effectively neutralizing these harmful viral proteins.

Opti Digestive Support
To truly reap the benefits of the foods we eat, food must be properly digested. The process of digestion is both mechanical and chemical. Mechanical breakdown of foods occurs through chewing, then food must be transformed in the chemical phase of digestion. Food composition is changed, chemically converted into complex molecules like proteins, fats and carbohydrates which are further converted to simpler substances like amino acids and simple sugars. The body’s special proteins called enzymes make this magic happen. Specific enzymes help break these complex components down into simpler molecules. Proteinase enzymes break down protein, and lipase enzymes break down lipids (fats).
It’s a delicate balance, and digestion is often less than optimal due to aging, exposure to toxins and gut imbalances. When the gut doesn’t work well, the enzymes are not present in sufficient quantities, and digestion is poor.
Poor absorption of food (malabsorption) means that you are not absorbing the nutrients, vitamins, and minerals you need. Minerals like iron and vitamins like B12 are not absorbed, and your body doesn’t work properly. You may eventually experience weakness, irritability, headaches, and other symptoms.
But there is a remedy. Our Friday Favorite this week, Opti Digestive Support, addresses the whole of digestion, providing crucial enzymes to make sure that the food we eat is properly digested and absorbed. You can be very careful about the food you intake, but all of that attention and preparation is for nothing if the body cannot properly process the food you ingest. This is a great product that I recommend to patients with low enzyme activity or those just wanting further digestive support.

Opti Mune
There are endless choices of supplements on the market today. How do you choose the right one when there are so many options? I advise our patients to get a supplement that provides long-term immune support. And let’s face it, in our world of toxins and jabs, we need exactly that.
One of the biggest problems with supplements is that they are formulated for short periods but are not ideal for long-term use. OptiMune contains five key ingredients – vitamin D, quercetin, vitamin C, n-acetyl cysteine, and zinc – formulated at effective levels that are also safe over the long term. N-acetyl cysteine helps the body refuel glutathione, the body’s master antioxidant. Quercetin is great because it decimates free radicals and balances cytokine levels to balance the immune system. Zinc directly supports several types of immune cells, and vitamins C and D are powerful antioxidants that provide a multitude of protective effects.
Optimune is a great broad-spectrum supplement with five targeted nutrients that help my patients’ immune systems. I highly recommend it to bolster your body’s immune reserves.
