Nutrigold was founded over ten years ago by Andrew Wren DHD, a well known Nutritional researcher and our acting Managing Director. Andrew is the son of two renowned personalities from the alternative medicine movement. Dr Lawrence Plaskett B.A. Ph.D., C.Chem., F.R.I.C (View Dr Lawrence Plaskett CV) is the co founder of the College of Dietary Therapy and founder of The Plaskett College of Nutritional Medicine, which later became the original TVU course. Barbara Wren DHD, (View Barbara’s CV) is the co founder of the College of Dietary Therapy and founder of The College of Natural Nutrition.
The ethos of our company is designed to support complementary health professionals in their endeavours to deliver a truly holistic approach of optimising good health through enhancing nutritional support. In our view many nutritional products that are offered in the industry today fall short on their promise to deliver a well absorbed and utilised nutrient in a form we should be able to expect from an effective food supplement. For example, calcium is often delivered as “Chalk” (an antacid) or magnesium as magnesium oxide (a mild laxative) meaning that these elements may pass through the system with very little positive nutritional effect....learn more (education 3). Often mainstream nutritional products tend to deliver more calcium that we believe is necessary, considering that the average British Diet delivers adequate levels of calcium daily and there are some potential health concerns that this could increase your chances of suffering a heart attack.
Over the past ten years we have become industry renowned as one of the leading nutritional research companies in the UK, who also enjoy strong links with the education and promotion of truly naturopathic nutrition in the UK. To support this bold claim, we boast an unrivalled level of scientifically referenced research papers that support our beliefs and philosophies.
We believe that this unique Nutritional Update Service delivers up to the moment Nutritional Research as it becomes available, directly to your desk top. This service offers a wide compendium of other services which include an A-Z on how to nutritionally support illness through optimum nutrition, a wide range of scientifically referenced newsletters by Dr Plaskett and our Nutritional Expert Team. We are also keeping you up-to-date on all the latest changes to the RDA’s, RNI’s and USL levels for food supplements. Some examples of the more recognised nutritional ingredient warnings, some of the possible interactions between nutritional ingredients and medicinal drugs have been evaluated for your information. For active practitioners we will also be delivering regular up-dates on the profession’s regulations, including practitioner recognition and the appropriate registers and all the latest on the confusing herbal laws and MHRA decisions.
This just leaves me to say I hope you enjoy this amazing new service and should you have any ideas about how we could improve this service do please feel free to contact us.
Assuring you of our best attention at all times.
Yours sincerely
Deborah
