Expertise
Michael can answer questions relating to naturopathic nutritional and supplement programs that support homeostasis and help to control and avoid diseases and conditions.
Experience
With over 25 years of experience as a naturopathic counselor and producer of nutritional supplements and other products, Michael Schwartz pioneered the synergistically complete concept, which has become an industry standard, as well as gender-specific supplements. His first naturopathic formulas, designed to nourish and support the body in its natural return to harmony and good health, were created originally for family, friends and clients. When Michael founded his supplement company in 1984, these formulas were offered to the public. Michael's belief in the principles of naturopathy has led him to rule out offering anything not in the true spirit of health, such as hormone or glandular-based products or fads. Michael now lends his expertise through his book "Health and Disease Symbology Handbook: A Mind-Body Perspective", helping those afflicted with diseases and conditions discover the root cause of ailments and, through recognizing patterns of behavior and utilizing proper nutrition, help control and avoid illness.
