Doctors possess a vast amount of knowledge about the human body, including its anatomy, physiology, disease processes, and treatment options, but their understanding is not exhaustive and varies depending on their specialty, with the most in-depth knowledge usually focused on areas they regularly practice in; essentially, they know enough to diagnose and treat common illnesses while readily accessing further information when needed for complex cases. 

​

Key points about a doctor's knowledge of the body:

​

• Extensive training:

• Medical school and residency programs require doctors to memorize intricate details about the body's systems, organs, and functions, including muscle groups, nerves, blood vessels, and various disease states. 

• Specialization:

• While a general practitioner has broad knowledge, specialists like cardiologists or neurologists have significantly deeper understanding within their specific areas of focus. 

• Continuous learning:

• Medical science is constantly evolving, so doctors must actively stay updated through research and continuing education to maintain their knowledge base. 

• Limitations:

• Even with extensive training, there may be areas of the body or complex conditions where knowledge is still evolving, requiring consultation with other specialists or further research in certain situations

 

In the United States, most medical schools provide less than 25 hours of nutrition education over four years. This is far below the recommended 25 hours set by the U.S. Committee on Nutrition in 1985.

​

Explanation

• Most of the nutrition education is focused on biochemistry, not on diets or food-related decision making. 

• Nutrition is often taught in the first year in combination with other subjects. 

• Nutrition-related concepts are often not identified as such, so students may not realize that nutrition is included in a course. 

• There is no clear pattern of faculty responsibility for nutrition.​

 

Impact

• As a result, doctors have little or no formal training on how to advise patients about nutrition and food choices. 

• This limits their ability to effectively talk to patients about nutrition. 

• Most doctors don't discuss nutrition because they have no training in it. ​

 

Solutions

• Medical schools should increase the amount of nutrition education they provide. 

• Nutrition education should be integrated throughout the curriculum rather than a one-off session. 

• Nutrition education should be taught in person rather than online. ​

 

Herbal medicines are generally gentler than synthetic medicines, but they can have inconsistent quality and may interact with other medications. 

​

Herbal medicines 

​

• Tend to be gentler and target healing

• Can be made from whole plants, which may work together synergistically

• May be combined with other herbs to improve efficacy and reduce adverse effects

• May be lightly processed and organic

• May cause side effects like stomach upset, sleeplessness, and muscle or joint pain (mild-side effects compared to medicine).

• May interact with other medications (this is why most doctors won't recommend them - they are medically trained and prescribe some form of medicine).

• Herbs Heal while Medicines Relieve Syptoms

• Hebs are slower and won't fit the needs of a fast relief.

 

Synthetic medicines 

​

• Are standardized and prepared following strict procedures

• Each batch is guaranteed to be of the same quality (NOT RESULTS).

• Address symptoms caused by specific diseases

 

FDA considerations

​

The FDA considers herbal supplements to be foods, not medicines. This means they are not subject to the same testing, manufacturing, and labeling standards as medicines. (lets keep it that way).

​

When to consider herbal medicines

​

If you are considering taking herbal medicines, you should always tell your doctor. You should never stop taking prescribed medications without consulting your doctor. ( We fully agree to this).

​

Sips focuses on blending medical and herbal approaches into harmony rather than separating them. We use herbs and supplements for prevention and medical assistance for emergencies and faster pain relief. This blend of prevention through dietary cleanses helps build, energize, and rest the body, which is essential for prevention and healing. Our mission is to avoid the need for medical assistance, not eliminate it.

​

The food industry is a global network of businesses that produce, process, package, distribute, and sell food. It's one of the world's largest industries. We rely on them and agree on the use of preservatives to prevent greater health issues.

​

Sips doesn't aim to eliminate modern practices. Instead, it focuses on reducing their negative health effects when they're not balanced with common sense.

​

Economics plays a crucial role in determining how much we spend on high-quality food and supplements.

​

We can't create products free of preservatives and chemicals without considering "shelf life." That's why Sips offers mixes rather than complete products. This allows you to create meals without worrying about preservatives.

​

We live in a world that increasingly values leisure time, often placing it above the importance of using that time to build and maintain long-term health. Our golden years, which should be filled with energy and vitality, are instead robbed of these qualities. We slowly and painfully fade away, largely due to not using our time more productively and prioritizing immediate gratification over long-term well-being.

​

Sips products are designed with a dual focus on "instant gratification" and "longevity of health." We firmly believe that true healing comes from achieving a practical balance between work and rest.

 

Sips makes its mixes incredibly easy to use, enabling you to create delicious meals with minimal effort. Each mix is carefully blended with high-quality ingredients, which are rich in natural vitamins and minerals. These ingredients are known to cleanse, build, energize, and relax both the body and mind.

​

Sips Mixes and Tonics aren't superfoods but are health-supporting blends that can enhance the nutrients needed in our daily diet to build real health. Please check the ingredients to ensure they fit your food allergy tolerance. These mixes aren't tailored for any specific diet style but aim to support the body with nutrients that boost and maintain real health.
