Over the years, from various meetings and some conventions, handouts pertaining to nutritional medicine have been handed. We have copied some of them as they contain beneficial and interesting
information. We have included what some of the testing is like pertaining to nutritional medicine and some of the information that is available via the internet. Some of the information may have been
updated or different terms are being used since it was prepared. It is arranged by topics and in alphabetical order. Again, this is a public service and to facilitate public
understanding on topics pertaining to nutrition.
As time goes on, additional information will be added. (Added 10/01/2023)
