The core value of Advanced Naturals is an understanding that the foundation of vibrant health begins in the digestive system.
What began as a personal journey for Brenda Watson, N.D., C.T., CNC to restore her own health has since become a life-changing pursuit to ensure people achieve good health through proper digestion. Throughout her career, she has worked in and developed several natural healthcare clinics that specialize in digestive care and internal cleansing. During that time she has seen countless individuals restore and maintain their health through the application of her natural healing principles.
Her own history and experience led her to develop Renew Life and Advanced Naturals. Through this effort she has become one of North America’s leading authorities on natural digestive health, detoxification and internal cleansing. She is the author of five books covering these topics and has appeared on the New York Times Best Selling List.
Advanced Naturals products are formulated by Brenda Watson, N.D., C.T., CNC and Dr. Leonard Smith M.D. Dr. Smith is not only a highly regarded general, gastrointestinal, and vascular surgeon, but an expert in the use of nutritional supplementation to solve health problems. Dr. Smith studied at the University of Florida, where he earned both a Bachelors of Science in Chemistry and a medical degree. Dr. Smith completed his General and Vascular surgery residency at the University of Miami and continued there as an instructor in surgery and a co-director of the surgical intensive care unit.
“We are able to create unique, therapeutic strength products using both Brenda Watson's and Dr. Smith's vast knowledge. By doing so, we are able to create products that are not only holistically proven, but medically sound. The formula's make sense on all levels and are therefore the most effective digestive care and cleansing formulas available" states Thomas Bedford, President of Advanced Naturals Canada.
Advanced Naturals products are made to surpass all Canadian GMP and NHPD standards for quality, safety, and efficacy. "Many of our products are quite complex, yet we continually achieve NPN status for them. That is a testament not only to our manufacturing of the products, but also shows that the evidence behind the formulations is strong and their benefits undeniable. Simply put, our goal is to formulate and manufacture products that any practitioner would feel confident in prescribing to their patients”, states Bedford.
Advanced Naturals offers a line of products for healthcare professionals with an exclusive focus on natural digestive health, detoxification and internal cleansing. The company believes that the foundation of vibrant health begins in the digestive system. Restoration and maintenance of gastrointestinal health is an integral and essential part of treatment and cure in a wide variety of conditions.
This innovative product line consists of specific formulations for digestive health with a focus on cleansing and detoxification, enzymes, probiotics, fibre, and essential fatty acids. These products are designed to optimize overall health, gastrointestinal function, detoxification and repair.
The Advanced Naturals team understands that optimum digestive care is not simply about one single category. For this reason, all of their products are formulated specifically with the health of the entire digestive system in mind.
"With each new product we develop or reformulate, we demonstrate our commitment to keeping pace with the latest advancements in natural healthcare", states Bedford.
The company’s mission and exclusive focus is to assist physician efforts to provide patients with the best care and results possible, and that is why all Advanced Naturals products are specifically formulated to provide the highest level of digestive care support.
