“Science First” philosophy

Designs for Health is unmatched in its ability to develop highly effective synergistic formulations. The Designs for Health “Science First” philosophy is the difference you’ll notice. It means superior quality products and proven efficacy. At Designs for Health, they believe that supplements should not be taken as a substitute for good quality food; rather, they should be used to enhance the diet by optimizing nutritional wellness and increasing metabolic efficiency. Supplements can also compensate for nutritional deficiencies resulting from the consumption of processed foods with lower nutritional value, or nutrient-depleting lifestyle factors such as stress and chemical exposure.

The Paleo Company

The nutrition experts at Designs for Health believe in the benefits of a Paleolithic diet, which is based on the same dietary principles followed by our ancestors. Our Paleolithic ancestors depended upon nutrition from lean meats, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds. As a result, our ancestors were lean, fit, and free of the chronic diseases that plague our society in epidemic proportions today. Diets changed considerably, owing to the dawn of agriculture and the introduction of cereal grains.
Given that there has been little change in the human genome since Paleolithic times, our nutritional requirements remain similar to those of the Stone Age hunter-gatherers. Thus, a diet that espouses Paleolithic principles with a balanced ratio of low net carbohydrates, high quality proteins, and essential fats may be the ideal route to the attainment of robust health, energy, and vitality.
