About the procedure
Approximately 80% of programme clients are found to have clinically significant deficiencies: vitamin D (often <30 ng/mL), B12, folate, ferritin, magnesium, zinc, omega-3 (index <8%). These are the basic building blocks without which the body systems do not function properly.
Treatment principle: laboratory verification of the deficiency → loading dose for 4–6 weeks → transition to a maintenance dose → follow-up laboratory test at 90 days. Doses are clinical, not prophylactic (for example, at vitamin D <20 ng/mL — 5000 IU/day, not 1000).
Route of administration: oral by default; parenteral (intramuscular B12, ferric carboxymaltose) only when malabsorption is documented or the deficiency is severe. Intravenous drips "for beauty" are not used in the programme.
Drug compatibility: interactions with the client's current medications are reviewed. For example, iron is separated in time from thyroid hormones, calcium, and coffee.
