Info Health News brings together select alternative health voices whose perspective and expertise point to the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Our goal is to create and gather the most meaningful health and nutrition information in one place, as a service that gives readers the tools to empower themselves.
Our Mission: Nutrition-First Health Information
We have a bias toward nutrition as a major factor in good health, and we believe that bias is supported by good science and bountiful evidence. That’s why so much of what we publish centers on Dr. Joel Wallach’s teaching that the body needs 90 essential nutrients every day: 60 minerals, 16 vitamins, 12 amino acids and 3 essential fatty acids.
On the blog you’ll find plain-language guides such as plant derived minerals vs tablets, why selenium matters, as Dr. Wallach explains, and how to tell whether a wellness claim is evidence based.
Who Runs Info Health News
Info Health News is run by Michael Medeiros, an independent Youngevity distributor. We support this site by supplying what we consider the best nutritional supplements available, Dr. Wallach’s Youngevity products. You can browse them on our Youngevity products page, order through Michael’s Youngevity store, or call (800) 212-2613.
We encourage every reader to talk with their doctor about supplements, especially if you take medication, are pregnant or manage a health condition.
