What are Pellets?
Pellets contain a natural plant source of estrogen, progesterone and testosterone.
These pellets, which are about the size of a grain of rice, are then placed
in the fatty tissue underneath the skin and act as if an ovary or testicle
is present. The implantation procedure is easily performed in the office.
Pellet Therapy:
- Is the best method to increase bone density — up to 8.3% per year
- Is implanted subdermally every 4 – 6 months
Procedure
In the doctors office, using a local anesthetic, they are painlessly inserted
under the skin of the hip, through a tiny incision, using a small insertion
device. Then, a small piece of tape or Band-Aid is used to close the incision.
The whole procedure takes only a few minutes, and the amount of discomfort
one feels is actually less than getting a blood test. The medical consultation
and lab work are performed on the first visit, the pellets are implanted
1 week later after the labs are reviewed. Your follow-up consultation
with lab work is required 3 months after the pellets are implanted.
What is Juvederm
Over recent years, hyaluronic acid (HA) has emerged as the miracle compound
for filling in wrinkles. HA is a natural substance that is found throughout
your body. It gives volume to the skin, lubricates the joints and gives
the eyes their shape. HA is a naturally occurring substance (complex sugar)
found throughout the body in all living organisms. In the skin, HA fills
the space between collagen and elastin fibers -- replenishing the natural
support layers lost with aging -- while delivering essential nutrients
and hydration. Over time, HA is gradually reabsorbed into the body.
The active ingredient in JUVÉDERM™ dermal filler, hyaluronic
acid, is a naturally occurring, biodegradable complex sugar found in the
human body and in all living organisms. Among other things, hyaluronic
acid hydrates the skin and adds volume, contributing to the overall appearance
of the skin.
Like Botox©, which has been available for more than 16 years and is
approved to treat 20 conditions in more than 75 countries around the world,
hyaluronic acid has been used for more than 20 years to treat multiple
medical conditions, including those associated with the eye and the knee.
Supplements for Success

Lipo-BC is a unique combination of vitamins that work synergistically and helps
to combat "stress". Although these vitamins are available in
a wide variety of foods; they are light and heat sensitive and are depleted
with poor food storage. Also, overcooking food and cooking with water
leads to vitamin loss before ingestion. Consequently this water-soluble
vitamin group needs daily replenishing. Choline and Inositol are two important
nutrients that work together helping the body metabolize and transport
fats. Biotin works to utilize B Complex vitamins in the body and help
folic acid convert to its biologically active form. Biotin contributes
to the metabolism of fats, proteins and carbohydrates and cell growth.

My B TabsThis uniquely formulated combination of vitamins supports many metabolic
functions including energy production, enzyme synthesis, and antioxidant
activity. Research shows that Adenosine Monophosphate (AMP) is a precursor
or building block for ATP. AMP is converted to ATP by the enzyme ATPase.
AMP is fundamental in phosphorylation reaction and constitutes a vital
metabolic link in energy, transfer mechanism, muscular contractions, enzyme
reactions, carbohydrate and fat metabolism. Adenosine is a naturally occurring
cellular metabolite. It is one of the four purine nucleotides responsible
for protein synthesis. This product is a sublingual tablet with fruit
flavoring. The addition of B-12 and folic acid are complimentary to the formula.

ChromeMate Chromium is an essential trace mineral required for maintenance of proper
sugar and fat metabolism. Chromium is present throughout the body, with
the highest concentration being in the liver, kidney, spleen, bone, brain
and muscle. Studies show that there is a significant age-related decrease
in chromium levels, which may play a part in the increased risk of diabetes
and arteriosclerosis in older people. Poorly absorbed, only 2-10 percent
of dietary chromium intake is absorbed by the body. Niacin bound, oxygen
generated chromium polynicotinate is the most absorbed form of chromium
available, mimicking the biological active form found in the body. It
has been shown to reduce the amount of insulin required by diabetic patients,
increase glucose metabolism, increase fat loss while sparing muscle (lean
body mass), and lower serum cholesterol. A minimum dose of 200 mcg. Daily
is recommended. CURB SUGAR CRAVINGS! Dietary supplements containing chromium
are gaining popularity among Americans, especially those seeking a weight-loss
program. Research suggests that chromium polynicotinate supplements may
cause weight loss, reduce fat and increase muscle mass. Studies show that
a daily supplement of 600-1000mcg of chromium along with a moderate diet
and exercise program, result in significant weight loss.
Mesoderm Cream Decrease Body Fat and Lose Inches! Meso Derm , a topical cream designed
to help dissolve fat, soothe the skin and improve skin texture. Each full
press pump delivers 60 mg. of bio-identical compounds proven to assist
in lipid metabolism and fat emulsification. Meso Derm is formulated to
provide excellent absorption through the skin. The key ingredients that
emulsify fat (Deoxycholic acid and Phosphatidyl choline) are bio-identical
compounds similar to what the body produces. The lipid soluble qualities
of these compounds ensure that both are well accepted for absorption by
the skin and the small size of these molecules ensure that these compounds
can easily pass between the cells. Both Deoxycholic acid and Phosphatidylcholine
are so well absorbed through the skin that they are often used as carriers
when transporting nutrients through the skin or through internal membranes.
Enhanced Lipid Metabolism & Decrease Fatty Tissue Meso Derm may be
used to enhance Meso-therapy treatments, or as a stand-alone product for
personal home care.
