In August, our team had the exciting opportunity to attend and sponsor the 12th annual Integrative Medicine for Mental Health Conference in Atlanta, Georgia. This four-day international conference focused on providing practitioners with a holistic approach to successfully diagnosing and treating underlying issues contributing to neurological, behavioral, and psychiatric disorders.

IMMH is the only conference dedicated to integrative medicine for mental health, with a primary focus on how to best support optimal brain health and function. Therefore, it has become a natural fit for Hardy Nutritionals to attend year after year as the formulators of the world's most powerful brain supplement for mood and mental health.

While attending the conference, we were able to connect with hundreds of practitioners who work with patients in their clinics every day. They seemed to be very interested in learning about the work we do to support doctors and their patients on the journey to wellness.

Throughout the course of the week, we were able to share about the recent double-blind studies published on Daily Essential Nutrients for pediatric ADHD which were received very positively. A number of healthcare providers enrolled in our Clinical Micronutrient Training to prepare to use our micronutrients with patients. In those training sessions, we provide practitioners with all the information they need to be successful in assisting patients with the transition from psychiatric medications to clinical micronutrient therapy. 

Some of the questions we encountered from doctors at the conference are featured below, along with their answers. 

What are the ingredients in Daily Essential Nutrients?
Daily Essential Nutrients contains every single vitamin and mineral science has deemed essential for the human body to function optimally. Each element is provided in a safely balanced ratio so as to ensure proper uptake and therapeutic effects. 

How does Daily Essential Nutrients work in the body?
The powerful ingredients in Daily Essential Nutrients are able to cross the blood-brain barrier and get right to work repairing pathways and cellular function. Each cofactor is an important part of millions of processes that happen in the brain, such as the melatonin production process or the 5HTP production process. Daily Essential Nutrients provides the brain with the natural elements required for those processes to take place.

Why is it important to provide all of the essential elements instead of one at a time?
Research has shown that providing each essential nutrient together synergistically provides an important balance that reduces the opportunity for nutritional imbalances. When one element is introduced at a time, imbalances occur which can be detrimental to a person's health. Learn more.

What is the most effective way for patients to transition to Daily Essential Nutrients?
When patients are ready to transition to micronutrients, they will need to slowly work up to the full dose of the micronutrients while reducing doses on their psychiatric medications. It is important that they work with their doctor during this process. This is outlined in our Clinical Micronutrient Training course.

Is Daily Essential Nutrients available in more than one form?
Yes! Daily Essential Nutrients is available in both powder and capsule form. See all the options here.

Do patients receive support from Daily Essential Nutrients staff?
We have a team of Product Specialists who are available Monday through Friday during regular business hours to assist people with the process of transitioning to micronutrients. Learn more here.

We look forward to attending future conferences with IMMH where we can interface with practitioners who are focused on addressing the root cause of their patients' moods and mental health.
