Health Care Professionals
Maximizing the Success of Your Practice We believe that the strongest link between our advanced, innovative products and patients who need them is the presence and guidance of you, their qualified practitioner. Therefore, Bioclinic Naturals products are exclusively available to health care professionals. Our scientific advisory team evaluates and formulates all Bioclinic Naturals products for quality and efficacy. Bioclinic Naturals then collaborates with an independent, not for profit, multidisciplinary research facility, the Canadian Center for Functional Medicine (CCFM). This scientific investigation focuses on the clinical application of our products, as well as nutritional interventions and strategies for preventive medicine. Bioclinic Naturals supports practitioners by providing effective formulas that can help solidify patient retention.
Leading our scientific advisory team are two of the world’s leading authorities on science based natural medicine – Dr. Joe Pizzorno and Dr. Michael Murray, authors of
A Textbook of Natural Medicine. This comprehensive, 200 chapter textbook with 10,000 citations to the peer-reviewed scientific literature remains the international standard for the education of natural medicine physicians. Dr. Pizzorno, Dr. Murray and the rest of our scientific advisory board are dedicated to a new model of health care delivery in North America, one that emphasizes wellness through the comprehensive integration of conventional and natural medicine.
