How WTSmed Supplements Are Used

It's not enough that WTSmed Supplements have been carefully formulated and carefully manufactured. In order for them to have maximum effectiveness they must also be properly used.

Just treating symptoms is not usually enough to help the body function on its own again, any more than doing all of a boy's homework for him will help him be proficient in math. In order for him to become proficient in math he must be given an opportunity to eat, sleep, study, and learn. Likewise, in order to recover the body must be given an opportunity to eat, sleep, and heal.

The good part about other people doing the boy's homework is that it's done fairly quickly because they already know how to do it. The bad part is that he is no closer to being able to do it himself than he was. The good part about just treating symptoms is that the symptoms can respond fairly quickly. The bad part is that the body is no closer to being normal again than it was.

The bad part about the boy doing his own homework is that it can take a little longer and require a little more work. The good part is that once he learns how to do it, he'll be able to do his math on his own whenever he wants. The bad part about actually healing the body is that it can take a little while and require a little more work. The good part is that once it has recovered, the body can function normally on its own even after the treatment's been stopped. Even though some people feel much better in a matter of days, others may not get much better for a couple of months, and some can occasionally feel a little worse before they feel better.

Even though some math lessons are harder than others, that doesn't affect the boy very much when someone else is doing his homework for him. On the other hand, if he was doing it himself it would be clear that some days were harder for him than others, even though he's getting more and more proficient. Likewise, when just treating symptoms, "good days" and "bad days" aren't as obvious because bodily functions are being bypassed by treating the symptoms directly. On the other hand, when the body is actually healing, just because it has a "bad day", or two, here and there doesn't mean that it's not getting better. When actually healing the body, it's better to take a broader view of the whole treatment process.

Because our society seems much more oriented toward treating symptoms than promoting health, many people dabble with supplements the way they might use an over-the-counter headache medicine. They might take it once or twice, or for a day or two, and if they don't notice a big difference they'll give up on it. Patients that take WTSmed Supplements often notice improvements quickly, but others will notice more gradual improvement as they keep taking it (and perhaps increasing the dose). And, the benefits can come and go a little, while continuing to improve overall.

If the idea that symptoms can come and go a little while you're recovering doesn't sound good to you, then it will be easier for you to see why "just treating symptoms" is so popular among doctors and patients. But remember, the benefit of Restorative Medicine is that while your symptoms may come and go a little during treatment, when you're finished you'll have a much better chance of actually being restored to normal health. Just like doing your own "homework" might not always be extremely easy, you'll have a much better chance of actually being able to "do math" on your own when you're finished.

Some people dabble with dietary supplements. They may walk into a health food store feeling badly and try anything that looks interesting. If it doesn't help them very much they might conclude that supplements don't work. But Restorative Medicine is just like almost everything else in life, the greatest chances of benefit come from

  • the right tools
  • made in the right way
  • used in the right way
  • for a long enough period of time

As with any dietary supplements, patients with a history of allergies or allergic reactions should exercise caution regarding the use of WTSmed Supplements.

What To Expect

How do you know what to expect with WTSmed Supplements? How do you know if you've tried the treatments for "a long enough period of time?" We'll tell you.

The description for every WTSmed Supplement on this web site will include

  • the normal recommended dosage
  • what you can expect in terms of how your body responds and when you can expect it
  • and even when you can start weaning off the supplement.

You will get concrete predictions so that you'll have a good idea if the supplement is helping you as expected. Since WTSmed Supplements are not usually taken for life, the descriptions of each product not only tell the recommended dosage for starting the treatment but also the recommendations for when and how to try weaning off!

Generally speaking people take herbs 2 months for every year they've been sick, and usually an extra 2 months when they are feeling well.
