The Science Behind ROOT Cause Supplements
Dr. J. Miller D.O., FACOG
Lowering whole-body inflammation, and delivering highly absorbable and bioavailable micronutrients and minerals is our goal. We continually research which plant-based, and “Lab-Based” (Magnesium, Vitamin D3, CoQ10 etc.) vitamins and minerals work synergistically. Our line of Plant-Based anti-inflammatory / anti-oxidant supplements has evolved from our Primary Flagship Capsule Curcu-Meric 975mg capsule. We formulate capsules with plant- based organic compounds, many of which we do not regularly obtain in our normal healthy diet on a daily basis. The anti-inflammatory nature of these compounds, not only has a direct positive effect on every cell, tissue and organ, however, by lowering Gut Inflammation we allow the vitamins and minerals from the food we eat and supplements we take to be maximally absorbed at the Gut Wall lining and utilized at the cellular level.
Maximally lowering Whole-Body inflammation on a daily basis is the single most important aspect of your health you can address to prevent future disease. The second most beneficial, is to replenish any micronutrient and mineral deficiencies, via supplementing with whole-food supplements (not synthetic). Starting with our Curcu-Meric 975mg capsule, and incorporating 1-4 other capsules from our line of capsules will significantly prevent future disease, and improve quality of life.
Each capsule formula contains a unique blend of organic plant-based compounds to lower whole-body Inflammation. Lowering Inflammation on the cellular level significantly improves quality of life and prevents disease. It’s recommended to start with our Curcu-Meric Capsule starting with 1 daily, with a meal or snack. Every several days increase by 1 capsule, staying on 2-4 Curcu-Meric Capsules Daily (May take 2 at a time).
Adding 1 or 2 of our other synergistic formulas is recommended for maximal reduction of whole-body Inflammation, and prevention of disease. For example, lets assume a client is taking 1 Curcu-Meric in AM & 2 Curc-Meric in PM, adding 1 Mushroom-Moringa-Magnesium Capsule to the AM dose and 1 to the PM dose of Curcu-Meric is synergistically beneficial. All Capsules are formulated to Complement one another.
See SHOP Page for different Bundle options. Our Bundle options are simply to provide significant therapeutic results, improving quality of life, treating your current medical conditions, and improving overall quality of life.
Why our supplements deliver superior therapeutic results? the above image of a cell highlights the mitochondria inside of the cell. The goal when we take in nutrients, vitamins and minerals whether from our diet or supplements, is to deliver them to the inside of the cell. 2 rate limiting barriers are at the intestinal mucosa and the cell membrane. Our formulas contain synergistic plant based ingredients lowering inflammation (oxidative stress) at both areas to allow maximum absorption and bioavailability to be utilized by the structures inside the cell.
We continually research which plant based compounds, vitamins, minerals, cofactors, coenzymes are crucial for our cellular health. We determine whether to revise our existing capsules, or formulate additional complementary capsules. We have decided to formulate a second brain health formula, as the above formula has proven to be extremely beneficial and clinically therapeutic, however, we would like to introduce other compounds healthy for our nervous system, such as alpha-lipoic acid, Vitamin B1 (Thiamine), Lions Mane, acetyl-L-carnitine, etc.. without changing our current formula for brain health. We have decided to create a second brain health formula, which willalso be available in 2-3 months ( December 2024).
Regarding our Osteo-Mmune 975mg Capsule (Label Image above)-Bone Density becomes very important as we age. Post-Menopausal Woman are most at risk for low bone density, however, individuals on prolonged treatments with steroids, chemotherapy agents for cancer and autoimmune conditions, prolonged hormone treatments, especially Depo-Progesterone along with GNRH agonists (Lupron) and newer GNRH Antagonists, are at increased risk of bone density loss and should be diligent in supplying their bones with sufficient and proper micronutrients, vitamins, and minerals. Bone is very metabolically active and requires micronutrients, and more than just Calcium and Vitamin D3. We include Calcium Ascorbate as the calcium salt of Vitamin C. Calcium Ascorbate is very efficiently absorbed and utilized by the body and a great source of vitamin C as well. The synergy of added plant based ingredients to provide natural Vitamin K2 and natural microindredients, along with other added minerals required for proper Calcium uptake; and to provide proper building blocks to utilize calcium for a secure, stable and strong trabecular bony matrix. If you are diagnosed with osteopenia or osteoporosis, besides basic lab studies such as a Comprehensive Metabolic Panel including Calcium, Magnesium, Phosphorus and Strontium levels, one should also obtain Thyroid studies along with PTH level (Parathyroid Hormone); and possibly a serum protein electrophoresis with immunofixation.
Our Osteo-Mmune Capsule is versatile, and is beneficial to take 1-2 daily for overall health. Every CELL in the body, and thus all Tissues and Organs require proper levels of minerals to function optimally, as calcium channels, potassium channels and magnesium channels exist on every cell membrane.
Our Immune System is very dynamic involving many areas of the body and many cells, with a diverse range of functions and activity. Our Immune Cells are trained to respond to areas of bodily injury and foreign compounds which become internalized, most commonly by our digestive system or respiratory system. The Immune system involves many different cell lines, and areas of the body, with early responding cells and late responders, and the production of antibodies. Immuno-Therapy has become mainstream for the treatment of many disorders, and The ROOT Cause of developing pathology is INFLAMMATION.
In the Initial phase of Injury, or response to exposure to a foreign agent, our Immune cells cause a healthy inflammatory response at the site of injury or exposure, and lessen the risk of infection, along with promoting a proper healing response, and attempts to destroy or wall off the foreign agent. However, in some instances the Immune Response can turn into a chronic response, promoting an unhealthy Inflammatory response, as in prolonged viral syndromes, or auto-immune disorders, resulting in Immune System Dysregulation.
When we discuss the unhealthy effects of chronic inflammation on our cells and tissues, the above references (Viral syndromes & Auto-Immune disorders), are 2 of many mechanisms, specifically related to our Immune System, contributing to our everyday cellular chronic inflammation (oxidative stress).
Our normal physiology and daily biochemical reactions produce a daily baseline load of free-radicals, and thus oxidative stress (chronic Inflammation), by a daily cascade of normal biochemical reactions required to run our body, causing the production of these free-radicals. This is another example of other Inflammation, not directly related to our Immune System.
Everyone has a different baseline load of oxidative stress (chronic Inflammation), depending on their environment, type of foods Ingested, genetics, medical conditions, smoking, alcohol use, emotional stress, workplace environment, and many other contributing factors.
Oxidative Stress on our Cells, Tissues & Organs = Chronic Inflammation = From production of free-radicals. Oxidative Stress is a biochemical stress, imposed upon our cells from free-radicals, not emotional stress. However, elevated emotional stress can cause increased Oxidative stress upon our cells.
A proven scientific fact is Energy cannot be created or destroyed, thus being the First Law of Thermodynamics. A specific, and basic example contributing to our Oxidative Stress would be: when our body uses food as a source for fuel, our body performs its biochemical reactions via extracting energy from the food, and the by-products of theses biochemical reactions yields molecules with one less electron – This is the free-radical; a molecule having one less electron, as the energy used to process your food, to be utilized as energy by your cells, is lost in these molecules, as energy cannot be created or destroyed; thus if energy is taken on one side of the equation, to be used as energy from the food we ingest, it must be lost on the other side of the equation, which is the molecule with one less electron, thus the free-radical.
It is these molecules with one unpaired electron (free-radicals), that act erratically, damaging nearby normal cells, creating a constant daily baseline load of oxidative stress (chronic Inflammation). We must suppress this oxidative stress significantly, on a daily basis, to keep a healthy environment on the cellular level; as this chronic inflammation, from these free-radicals, is what causes damage to our cells, tissues and organs, ultimately leading to illness in one form or another, and is also the ROOT Cause of Aging.
Ingesting Healthy and significant quantities of plant-based agents in our diet, and in the form of supplements, is the best way to combat this oxidative stress (chronic inflammation), caused by 2 Main Mechanisms: The Immune System and Free-Radicals.
The above example (processing our food) is 1 of Thousands of examples that create these biochemical reactions in our body to cause oxidative stress (chronic Inflammation). In the above example, we referenced how processing our food leads to biochemical reactions, which create free-radicals = oxidative stress = chronic inflammation. The production of free-radicals from eating our food is obviously a factor we cannot control. There are factors we cannot control and factors we can control that cause oxidative stress(chronic inflammation). Non-modifiable are factors we can’t control, and modifiable are factors we can control, that cause oxidative stress (chronic inflammation), inside our body on a cellular level.
We will use the following example to better understand our Baseline Level of Oxidative Stress (Chronic Inflammation). In medicine when we speak of a disorder, we use the terms modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors towards a certain disorder. Using High Cholesterol as an example, a non-modifiable risk factor would be Genetics, and the inheritance of a gene causing familial hypercholesterolemia. Modifiable risk factors on the other hand are things you can control / modify, such as: Diet & Exercise. In either situation, you still have high cholesterol, and it must be addressed.
One can only address the modifiable risk factors pertaining to the disease. However, we always need to address the oxidative stress, both our baseline oxidative stress, and the additional oxidative stress, as a result of the high cholesterol.
The baseline Oxidative Stress (chronic inflammation), free radical damage to our cells caused by everyday biochemical reactions which our body needs to carry out (non-modifiable risk factors towards oxidative stress), to function properly and perform daily roles such as processing of foods and eliminating waste. We all have Oxidative Stress which is OUR BASELINE (Non-Modifiable).
Once we acquire a disease or disorder, our oxidative stress increases over and above our Baseline, with the additional load of oxidative stress from the disease or disorder, and therefore, one must address their oxidative stress (chronic inflammation) more aggressively.
Some individuals fully understand the impact and science of oxidative stress on our cells, and treat their baseline chronic inflammation aggressively, even if they are in great health, as they are focusing on keeping their baseline oxidative stress (chronic inflammation) as low as possible, keeping their cellular functioning as optimal and efficiently as possible, by reducing the burden of free radicals on their cells. This is essentially the ROOT Cause of Preventative Medicine. We can be in good health, and still suffer a heart attack at the age of 68 for example. We all have a Baseline level of oxidative stress (chronic inflammation) which will manifest in our lives at one point or another. Our goal is to push that time as far down the road as possible and improve our quality of life.
The Impact of Oxidative Stress (chronic inflammation) on our cells is exponentially large, which is why no matter how aggressive we are with daily treatment, we will never beat it, and stop aging. However, to make a significant impact on our health, prevention of illness, and improvement of daily quality of life (less arthritis pain, etc.), we must be aggressive in lowering our chronic inflammation (oxidative stress).
Oxidation is a term we are familiar with, an example is when metal rusts. Anti-Inflammatory healthy compounds, and Anti-Oxidants, combat this free-radical cascade on our cells. Anti-Inflammatory / Anti-Oxidants (which are essentially one in the same) ingested daily, reduce the damage done by free-radicals, thus reducing chronic inflammation, allowing our cells to function more efficiently, allowing the inner lining of our arteries and veins to be protected from damage, and resulting arteriosclerosis.
We can discuss/mention how it does the same for other body systems, however, we mention the Cardiovascular system (arteriosclerosis), in the above paragraph, as damage to this system (Cardiovascular), over time is the #1 cause of morbidity and mortality. Thus, we should be diligent in our daily habits to prevent damage to our cardiovascular system. As a population we don’t take nearly enough action to reduce our future risk of cardiovascular disease. The ROOT Cause Being reducing Oxidative Stress (chronic Inflammation) on the inner lining of our arteries and veins.
Please note the Cardiovascular system is not only referring to the Heart. However, as the name implies our vessels to all body organs. Prevention of Stroke, Heart attack and the simple proper delivery of oxygen and nutrients to all our tissues, by maintaining a healthy environment on the inside of our arteries and veins, is crucial to proper and optimal cellular, and thus organ function.
Once again, cardiovascular disease is the #1 cause of overall morbidity and mortality, and the only agent recommended over the years was / is, aspirin for prevention. Whether taking 1 baby aspirin daily, or 4 baby aspirin (full-strength aspirin), we are making a very small impact on our oxidative stress (chronic inflammation).
Aspirin is still recommended; however, newer studies reveal possible elevated risk of stroke in some individuals, therefore, it is less commonly recommended for primary prevention of Cardiovascular disease. Turmeric / Curcumin and other plant-based compounds, remain superior to aspirin in safety and efficacy, in significantly reducing cardiovascular disease, without elevated risk of stroke. Also, Turmeric / Curcumin, and other plant-based compounds, have a myriad of additional health benefits, not offered by aspirin. One most important is a healthy GI (Gastrointestinal) system, whereas aspirin is unhealthy for the GI mucosa.
Whether taking Aspirin, Turmeric / Curcumin, or most recently approved by the FDA, Colchicine; for Cardiovascular Prevention, and treatment after a cardiac event, each mechanism is the same between all 3 compounds; which is the reduction of inflammation (oxidative stress), and thus inhibiting plaque accumulating within the coronary arteries. The second mechanism shared by all 3 agents is the mild thinning of blood, improving blood flow (circulation). Colchicine is a medication approved for 20 years to treat Inflammation related to Gout. It has most recently, in August 2023, been approved by the FDA, to lower inflammation for the prevention of cardiovascular disease. Yes, the FDA recognizes that lowering inflammation is important to prevent cardiovascular disease.
When we speak of plaque accumulation in our arteries, yes, we are preventing plaque accumulation in ALL our arteries. Therefore, Why do we always reference the coronary arteries, and not other arteries? Several reasons: 1- other arteries are larger and take longer to accumulate plaque build up to significantly block blood flow. However, there are also arteries smaller than the coronary arteries such as those on the distal branches of our lungs and brain network of vessels, so why are we not discussing those? The Answer: 2- Coronary Arteries are the first set of arteries coming off the Aorta, as it exits the Left Ventricle of the Heart, Therefore, these arteries experience a high pressure / force of blood flow. You have Blood going from the largest artery in the body, the Aorta, with high force/pressure, into a medium sized artery, the coronary arteries, which feed blood to the wall / muscle of the heart. This high force/pressure creates a turbulent shear force on the inner lining of the coronary arteries. This constant shear force damages the endothelial surface of the coronary arteries, quicker than other arteries. The area of damage then elicits a chronic inflammatory process, partially by the immune system as it attempts to repair the area, and partially by normal oxidative stress. This area then becomes more prone to oxidative stress, with an increasing number of risk factors, such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes etc.
Just as the Renal arteries feed the kidneys, the Coronary arteries feed the heart. Blockage of any artery will cause the tissue / organ to stop working , or work suboptimal, from necrosis of that tissue. For reasons discussed above, as the Renal arteries are larger, exit the Aorta much further down, with much less pressure and shear force, and thus less risk of damage. This is why we focus on the coronary arteries with respect to cardiovascular disease, and plaque accumulation. They are most vulnerable to damage, and when damaged they cause lack of blood flow to the most important organ for survival, The Heart. However, taking Anti-Inflammatory / Anti-Oxidant agents, improves the inner lining of ALL your arteries.
The ROOT Cause of arteriosclerosis Is Chronic Inflammation (Oxidative Stress). We will all accumulate plaque inside our arteries, some more rapidly than others. Those with genetic risk factors, diabetes, hypertension, significantly elevated cholesterol and triglycerides, Auto-Immune Disorders, Environmental Pollutants, smoking, and many other risk factors, will have an accelerated process; thus, the reason why some individuals have a heart attack or a stroke, and others don’t. Thus, the reason why diabetics, individuals with hypertension, elevated cholesterol, excess emotional stress, Auto-Immune disorders (RA, Lupu, UC, MS etc.), and many other conditions, have accelerated problems with bodily organs such as The Heart, Brain, Intestines, Colon, Liver & Kidneys. These individuals have an accelerated amount of oxidative stress (chronic inflammation), above and beyond our baseline, with our baseline stemming from our regular routine biochemical reactions required by our body, to carry out normal daily functioning.
As discussed previously, we all have our baseline level of oxidative stress (chronic inflammation) from our normal bodily functions and resultant biochemical reactions, which are necessary to carry out these normal bodily functions. However, those with Diabetes for example, have a significantly higher burden of oxidative stress upon their cells, tissues, and organs daily. Therefore, it becomes equally important to address this chronic inflammation, as it is to control blood sugars. There are thousands of disorders which contribute to our cellular burden of oxidative stress (chronic inflammation); however, diabetes is very common, and is also very high on the list, as Diabetes is one of the disorders contributing to our burden of chronic inflammation (oxidative stress) significantly above our baseline, and thus leading to many health-related complications.
With Diabetes, the inability to control your blood sugars is the primary event, however, The ROOT Cause of why diabetics have a much higher degree of Heart attacks, Strokes, and lower extremity amputations, stems from the resultant oxidative stress (chronic inflammation), from the accelerated rate of endothelial cell damage (arteriosclerosis) on the inner lining of arteries. Specifically, the Coronary Arteries with respect to heart attacks, Cerebral circulation with respect to strokes, and lower extremity arteries (circulation) with respect to amputations. Not only is it critical to keep our vessels open to prevent heart attacks, strokes, and poor lower extremity circulation; however, the better your circulation, the more oxygen, nutrients, and minerals you deliver to your cells and tissues; thus, the more optimal they will function, the less they need to compensate over time, and the lower the chance of malfunction over time.
Think of compensation with respect to the functioning of an automobile. If an automobile is maintained well, it will function better and break down less. The more detailed you are about maintaining it, the better it will function, and the less it will compensate and break down over time. Now, there are different levels of maintenance, therefore, if you just change the oil regularly for the first 5 years, and just address baseline maintenance you will have quicker problems with your tires by not rotating them, you will have your brakes eat into your metal disk by not changing them etc.. Just changing the oil is comparable to just trying to control your blood sugars with diabetes, and not addressing other maintenance issues comparable to lowering your chronic inflammation (oxidative stress).
Therefore, by just focusing on Blood Sugar Levels with respect to Diabetes, you are comparably just changing the oil every 5 years, and not addressing other important matters such as the significantly elevated oxidative stress (chronic inflammation) above baseline, due to the diabetes, which is impacting your cells. Therefore, as we mentioned earlier, it is equally important to address all areas of maintenance for the best long-term outcome and prevention of complications. Turmeric / Curcumin, and many other Plant-Based Compounds address both issues simultaneously – Controlling Blood Sugars & equally as important, Lowering Inflammation, as do many plant-based compounds. This does not mean you should stop your diabetic medications. That weaning process is a discussion for another time. Rather, ROOT Cause Supplements, starting with Curcu-Meric 975 mg, perfectly complement your diabetic, blood pressure, cholesterol, thyroid, and other medications. Individuals on blood thinners are instructed to take lower doses of Curcu-Meric 975mg , on a case-by-case basis. Please feel free to email: millerobgyn19@yahoo.com with any questions.
If you have no medical problems, and are in great physical health, you still have a baseline level of oxidative stress (chronic inflammation) bombarding your cells daily, which needs to be addressed. This is the most significant factor contributing to our aging. Over time this will catch up with your cells, tissues, and organs; much less quickly than if you had diabetes, however, for proper maintenance and prevention of disease it needs to be addressed daily.
You may ask the question: If 2 individuals have the same everything: diet, exercise routine, weight etc.. why do they age differently and develop different complications (i.e. Heart attack, stroke etc.), and why do some develop them at a younger age and others an older age. The answer is: Their baseline level of oxidative stress (chronic inflammation) is different. Their non-modifiable risk factors are different. Many factors as mentioned earlier contribute towards your baseline level of oxidative stress (chronic inflammation); those being genetics, workplace environment, natural outside environment (level of pollution), how you handle emotional and psychological stress, eating and exercise habits (even though we mentioned these 2 hypothetical individuals both have the same diet and exercise) there still will be variability contributing to how well they maintain their baseline level of oxidative stress (chronic inflammation). Some Risk factors are in the middle, semi-modifiable, such as Air Quality (Pollution) & Work Place environment or lifestyle. We will all be exposed to both inevitably, as we need to breathe and we need to work/ function in society, contributing to our oxidative stress (chronic Inflammation), to one degree or another; however, we can choose to make changes by moving to a healthier environment or a healthier job / workplace. Thus, these are examples of semi-modifiable risk factors to long term oxidative stress (chronic inflammation), and future health, as we can make choices to lessen the burden in those areas.
The example pertaining to diabetes can be applied to many thousands of disorders, however, even more severe than just diabetes alone would be Metabolic Syndrome, involving an individual with Glucose Imbalance / Diabetes, elevated cholesterol, increased abdominal fat & high blood pressure. If you are afflicted with 3-4 of these conditions, this is referenced as Metabolic Syndrome, which significantly increases adverse health consequences. Once again, we see The ROOT Cause of adverse health sequelae stems from endothelial cell dysfunction inside the arteries, and the cells that make up the tissue or organ itself, from oxidative stress (chronic inflammation), from an accelerated rate of free-radical damage, resulting in accelerated rate of heart attacks, strokes, kidney failure and amputations; essentially affecting every organ and body system.
We would like to clarify something, the endothelial cells on the inner surface of your arteries and veins are not the ONLY cells affected by oxidative stress (chronic inflammation), as ALL cells are affected (cells that make up the tissue or organ itself). However, damage to the inner lining of your blood vessels will manifest symptoms initially / quicker in majority of cases, and with more severe health problems, which is why cardiovascular health remains our area of focus, and the first area we use as an example.
It is obviously important to keep Blood Pressure controlled, cholesterol at an acceptable level, blood sugar balanced, and weight control addressed. However, this is only half the battle, as it’s equally important to lower your oxidative stress (chronic inflammation) daily. Our Capsules are designed to Control Blood Sugars, Lower Blood Pressure, Lower Cholesterol, Manage Auto-Immune disorders, and address the primary problem, as well as lower whole-body inflammation (oxidative stress). Once again, traditional mainstream medicine is useful and necessary to address your medical problems. Pairing Traditional Medications, with healthy, all-natural compounds to lower your whole-body inflammation (oxidative stress) is extremely important, valuable, and safe. Over time, can traditional medications be lessened with gradual loss of weight, and control over the medical condition? Absolutely, however extremely slowly, and on a case-by -case basis.
We used the example above of Metabolic Syndrome, as that is one of the most detrimental to your health, however, if you are afflicted with only Hypertension, or only a thyroid problem, this still places your baseline load of oxidative stress above a normal level of oxidative stress (chronic Inflammation).
Supplementing your Cells, Tissues and Organs with Vitamins, Minerals, Enzymes & Co-Factors is important, however, what is more important, is to lower your Chronic Inflammation (Oxidative Stress), 1- ON A DAILY BASIS &, 2- TO A SIGNIFICANT DEGREE. Treating the underlying condition and lowering oxidative stress go hand-in-hand, feeding off one another in a vicious cycle of improvement.
A Healthy diet and exercise are important, however, the degree of oxidative stress our body encounters daily is a very large burden. Oxidative Stress is the primary driving force that causes Aging, Disease, and poor quality of life. Ingesting an anti-inflammatory / anti-oxidant rich diet is great, however, is not sufficient to significantly impact our daily load of free-radicals bombarding our tissues. Especially if we factor in disease and illness, which significantly raises the level of oxidative stress above baseline, as with the above examples.
Anti-Oxidants Combat the Oxidative Stress our cells encounter on a daily basis. Thus, the main reason why Fruits and Vegetables are healthy for us. They contain hundreds/thousands of anti-oxidants which combat our oxidative stress. In the past 10-20-30 years our bodies and cells have been bombarded with increasing amounts of Oxidative Stress, due to evolving unhealthy environmental factors, food toxin factors, workplace factors, emotional and psycho-social stress factors, etc.., thus the reason for Immune System Dysregulation, and the rising incidence of Auto-Immune Disorders, Cardiovascular disease, and Endocrine system Dysfunction (i.e. Diabetes etc.). It’s impossible to obtain sufficient levels of anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatory agents on a daily basis, even when eating a healthy well-rounded diet. Supplementing with Organic Plant-Based Botanical Formulas, without any added fillers or preservatives is crucial.
Why are Plant-Based compounds such as Turmeric / Moringa / Ginger etc., more Therapeutic as anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant agents, compared to synthetic anti-oxidants such as Vitamin C / Vitamin E etc.?
Taking supplements with synthetic anti-oxidants helps, however, the fact that they are synthetic creates a double edge sword. The best example would be Vitamin C. We do not produce Vitamin C in our body naturally and depend upon external sources. Ingesting Vitamin C in fruits, vegetables, juices etc. is great for purity and maximal absorption by our Gut. Anything we eat or drink gets broken down for our Gut lining to properly absorb. The more natural the source of the agent presented to our Gut lining cells, the easier and more efficiently these cells can absorb these nutrients, minerals, proteins etc.
Therefore, a synthetic Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is healthy to take as a supplement to your dietary vitamin C intake; However, being synthetic and not from a natural source, there is a lower rate of absorption (from your gut, and delivered to your bloodstream), along with a lower ability to be utilized by your tissues (bioavailability). Also, the synthetic nature of Vitamin C, ascorbic acid, will cause the gut to elicit a small immune response, and a histamine response, causing minimal increase in inflammation (oxidative stress). Same with respect to any fillers / preservatives included in the capsule / pill. The gut lining cells will manifest a small inflammatory response against these synthetic agents, as it recognizes them as foreign agents.
This is a perfect analogy of how Immuno-Therapy is currently used to treat Cancer. Immuno-Therapy has become a mainstay in treating cancer along with Chemotherapy. The Immune System is utilized by Immuno-Therapy to recognize the cancer cells as foreign, stimulating specific parts of the Immune System to attack the cancer cells, and / or inhibit the growth of the aberrant cells.
We are not stating Vitamin C, ascorbic acid, as an anti-oxidant is not healthy for you as a supplement, however, one is not significantly lowering their oxidative stress to a level that will make a significant clinical impact, with a few thousand milligrams of Vitamin C daily.
Taking a Capsule or tablet of Vitamin C or Vitamin E as an anti-oxidant is ok, however, will never address the burden of free-radicals, causing oxidative stress on our tissues. The chronic inflammation caused by this process needs to be addressed by compounds which not only decrease oxidative stress (anti-oxidants), however, also have a therapeutic healthy anti-inflammatory response, and contain highly absorbable vitamins and minerals to optimize the internal workings of the cell, such as, the mitochondria, nucleus, ribosomes, Golgi Apparatus, cell membrane etc.
The other issue is vitamins such as vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid are synthetic, and the body recognizes these agents as foreign. Thus, yes there is a small degree of anti-oxidant potential and benefit from taking vitamin C, however, the foreign nature of ascorbic acid causes an abnormal immune response and thus contributes to chronic inflammation. Thus, Vitamin C and other synthetic vitamins have a small degree of anti-oxidant potential, however, nothing near the potential of Turmeric / Curcumin and other plant-based compounds. Also, instead of acting as an anti-oxidant / anti-inflammatory dual agent like Turmeric / Curcumin, vitamin C causes an increase in the inflammatory response of the immune system as it is recognized as a foreign synthetic agent. Thus, Vitamin C has an anti-oxidant property, however this is partially negated by the Pro-Inflammatory Immune Response.
We want no misunderstanding in using Vitamin C as an example. Anti-oxidants such as Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Vitamin A Supplements, are healthy to ingest, and are beneficial, however, do not address the anti-inflammatory problems, and thus oxidative stress encountered by our cells on a daily basis, as well as a natural plant-based compounds, especially for prevention of cardiovascular disease. This can be applied to all synthetic based vitamins and not just Vitamins C, E. A.
There are many other examples such as NAD, MSM etc., which are synthetic compounds, more so than Vitamin C as ascorbic acid, which have a double edge sword to them. Beneficial in one aspect, however counter-effective in another.
Since we used Vitamin C as an example, it would be appropriate to mention we do use vitamin C as a blend 50/50 Ascorbic Acid and Acerola Cherry in some of our capsule formulas. With our capsules containing several plant-based ingredients in one capsule, and many ingredients between all 10 of our capsules, you receive maximum benefits from synergy with the other ingredients. Also, other plant-based compounds have small amounts of highly absorbable natural vitamin c.

Higher dosing is also necessary for plant-based chemo-prevention of carcinoma, as is well documented in the literature.
- Plant-Based Ingredients All contribute towards lowering your oxidative stress (chronic Inflammation). All plant-based foods, roots, flowers, barks & spices (and the newer term being used, adaptogens), lower whole-body inflammation by differing mechanisms and degrees. Some lowering Inflammation more than others, with Turmeric / Curcumin high on the list. However, others such as Moringa & Ginger contribute significantly towards lowering your inflammation in synergy with Turmeric / Curcumin. The other important factor to mention, even though Moringa & Ginger may have less of an anti-inflammatory / anti-oxidant effect in lowering chronic inflammation (oxidative stress); they lower it by differing mechanisms, and provide a different variety of natural vitamins and minerals compared to our reference agents Turmeric / Curcumin. Addressing different mechanisms in lowering inflammation is very important from a clinical perspective, and yields synergistic results when combined with Turmeric / Curcumin. Thus, The reason we recommend pairing 1 or 2 of our other capsules produced at ROOT Cause Supplements, with our Flagship Turmeric / Curcumin Capsule: Curcu-Meric 975 mgTM
- Each Capsule has its own unique synergistic pure therapeutic formula. Synergy is when 2+2=6. The sum results of the total, is greater than the individual components separately. Synergy exists between the ingredients within each capsule, and between all 10 capsules in production.

Taking 2-4 Curcu-Meric 975mg Capsules daily is a perfect starting point. However, if you have significant medical conditions causing elevated oxidative stress (chronic Inflammation) above baseline, it would be recommended to pair 1,2 or 3 other capsules with the Curcu-Meric 975mg Capsule.

How did I, Dr. Miller, ROOT Cause Supplements, become interested in researching Inflammation?
How is Inflammation Connected to the Immune System?
Why did we include -Mmune in the name of several of our capsules?
In my studies and research, I was intrigued at the rising prevalence in auto-immune disorders over the past 20 years. I was also intrigued by the simple answer involved in reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, via reducing whole-body inflammation; along with the lack of education, and of Pure, Plant-based supplements available, which are: non-synthetic, Pure Formulas, no fillers / preservatives, at affordable pricing, focused on this central area of our health. Also, in the literature, every disorder is somehow tied to oxidative stress (chronic inflammation) on the cellular level.
Over the Past 10 years we have seen a significant increase in Biologics used to treat many Health-Related Disorders, especially Auto-Immune Related disorders such as Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Ulcerative Colitis (UC).
Biologics are a subset of a class of medications called disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). Nonbiologic, or conventional, DMARDs, such as methotrexate, are drugs composed of small molecules made from chemicals in a lab. Biologics are large molecules produced in living cells. Both help protect against the effects of inflammation, but in different ways.
Conventional DMARDs suppress the overall immune system, whereas biologics block specific parts of the immune system, such as proteins that promote inflammation. Biologics are more complex and harder to make than conventional DMARDs and cost much more. And unlike small-molecule drugs, they don’t come in pill form. Some are in the form of a self-injection using a prefilled vial and autoinjector. Others are given by intravenous (IV) infusion in a doctor’s office or clinic.
Many people never need biologic DMARDs because conventional DMARDs control their disease well. The American College of Rheumatology recommends methotrexate over a biologic as the first choice for most people with inflammatory autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis. If methotrexate or another conventional DMARD isn’t effective, your doctor may switch you to a biologic or a biosimilar, a drug nearly identical to a biologic. Steroids in the form of Prednisone, are also used to suppress the Immune Systems Inflammatory Response, alone or together with Biologics.
Biologics Suppress the Immune System Inflammatory Response, However, does not suppress oxidative stress (chronic inflammation) on a cellular level; Oxidative Stress (chronic inflammation) from both, the auto-immune disorder, and your baseline oxidative stress (chronic Inflammation), is very important to address, whether receiving Biologics or not.
Biologics have certainly shown some benefit; however, the downside is they suppress the Immune System. Instead of correcting the Immune System Dysregulation, and Optimizing the Immune System, they suppress the Immune System, thus causing other risks and side effects such as Serious Infection, possibly other Auto-Immune disorders, certain Blood based disorders such as lymphoma, leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Despite some draw backs, due to suppressing the immune system, Biologics have their role in medicine, however, they need to be used with caution.
This is why our term -Mmune, is used in the Names of some of our specific capsules. To remind our clients / customers ALL our capsules Optimize The Immune System, via suppressing Inflammation, not only Curcu-Meric. ALL Capsules Produced at ROOT Cause Supplements, Suppress Inflammation, and Optimize The Immune System. Instead of suppressing the Immune System, as Biologics use this mechanism to Lower your Inflammation. Our Capsules Optimize The Immune System, by correcting Immune System Dysregulation, and / or over-stimulation.
Our Immune System naturally reacts to ALL inflammation in our body as it is meant to perform. Therefore, Via significantly Lowering Inflammation (Oxidative Stress) on a daily basis, with our supplements, starting with our Flagship Capsule, Curcu-Meric 975mg, we lessen the response of our Immune System to “nonsense” irrelevant inflammation, and thus allow the Immune System to perform the important functions it was meant to perform. Thus, our capsules suppress inflammation (oxidative stress), they suppress the excess burden of inflammation on our cells and tissues, and Optimize the Immune system, thus the term -Mmune. To complete the full line of maintenance, ROOT Cause Supplements, also provide our cells with highly bioavailable Plant-based vitamins, minerals, and co-factors, allowing optimal cellular function and efficiency, with less compensation, and less room for error.
Curcu-Meric 975mg is our Flagship Capsule. A Universal Capsule for Inflammation, Heart, Gut, Brain, Liver & Kidney Health. The other 9 capsules produced at ROOT Cause Supplements all pair perfectly with Curcu-Meric 975mg Capsule. Our Model as a supplement company in pairing our products is not from a sales perspective, rather a results driven model. No matter how pure and therapeutic a capsule, when taking capsules which are not synthetic ingredients with fillers and preservatives, one has the advantage to take higher doses. Lowering Whole-Body Inflammation is the #1 Preventative Measure you can take to prevent disease, Optimize Your Immune System, Prevent Cardiovascular Disease, and has many other positive impacts on All body systems. Thus we provide superior quality Capsules, with All Natural and pure products, at a low price point, encouraging proper regimens so as to yield unmatched results. We recommend as a starting point 2-4 Curcu-Meric 975mg capsules daily, taken 1-2 at a time together with snack or meal for maximal absorption, eventhough the capsule blend is formulated for maximal absorption, the added boost from the fats in food gives an added boost.
Our 10 Capsules in production contain Oragnic Plant-Based Ingredients, combined with vitamins, minerals & adaptogens working synergistically to Lower Whole-Body Inflammation & Optimize Cellular Function, thus preventing onset of disease & illness, improving quality of life, and relieving pain and discomfort.
What sets us apart from other supplement manufacturers is the sourcing of our high-grade pure ingredients, without any fillers, preservatives or anti-caking agents used in production. All of our Plant-Based Ingredients are Organic, and all Vitamins and Minerals are purchased from USA Certified Labs. Our production involves a special sifting mechanism in which our formulas are mixed and sifted to ensure every ingredient in the capsule is in contact with one another, maximizing the benefits of synergy, absorption and bioavailability
Below is an Image of Blue Spirulina, used in production of our Cardio-Mmune 975mg Capsule, Image of Cardio-Mmune label is below. The Image below was taken after Blue Spirulina was added to the Formula at our Lab, and prior to the mixing and sifting process we use. We only use Pure Ingredients !

When you click on each item / bundle, there is ample information to read.
The label image below, is our 9th capsule, Neuro-Mmune 975mg. Starting with our Flagship Capsule Curcu-Meric 975mg, we formulated 9 more capsules, each with it’s own subset of different ingredients, so that they all compliment one another in lowering whole-body inflammation and optimizing cellular function via each capsules unique pathways and mechanisms. One should also realize that all ingredients can have several different benefits to our bodily systems. For example, ashwagandha may exert a calming effect, as well as help with metabolism and help keep our hormones and endocrine system in a state of balance, along with having intrinsic anti-inflammmatory properties. Another example we can use is our 9th capsule formula, Neuro-Mmune 975mg, in which Phosphatidyl-Serine & Phosphatidyl-Choline have an affinity for brain cells and neurological tissue, however, these agents are also important for cellular metabolism, and will help with weight management.
Therefore, our goal at ROOT Cause Supplements, is to formulate a Pure, High-Quality, Professional-Grade line of Capsules, utilizing Plant-Based Organic Ingredients, which work synergistically together to improve cellular function, and lower-whole body inflammation; utilizing thousands to hundreds of thousands of mechanisms (when combining 2-3 of our capsules) to accomplish our health goals. Synergy is when 2+2=8, it’s analagous to the point on a chart where the graph goes from linear To exponential. To accomplish this we have started with our synergistic Flagship blend Curcu-Meric 975mg, maximizing the power of Curcumin & Turmeric, via combining with other ingredients to maximize the anti-inflammatory / anti-oxidant potency and clinical result. The other ingredients in our Curcu-Meric 975mg Capsule besides the Curcumin & Turmeric have their own intrinsic benefits, however, the formula increases the absorption and bioavailability of Curcumin & Turmeric which are difficult for our gut lining to absorb.
The above 2 paragraphs are the reasons why we created capsules with 6-10 ingredients. Thus, the benefit not only works between ingredients in one capsule, however, between all our capsules. Each capsule has it’s unique attributes, and we strive to use different ingredients in each capsule, thus creating a therapeutic synergy between capsules. For example- the ingredients below also have benefit for women experiencing peri-menopause / menopause symptoms. Therefore combining this capsule with our Women’s Health Capsule (Purple Label) and the Curcu-Meric 975mg, yields excellent results, along with lowering whole-body inflammation via many different physiologic pathways than those offered by Curcumin & Turmeric alone.
Beginning with our Curcu-Meric 975 mg capsuleTM in 2015, we continued to produce Plant-Based (Anti-Inflammatory) supplements, synergistically formulated with Vitamins, Minerals & Adaptogens. We have a complete line of 10 supplements.
Even though Curcu-Meric 975 mg capsuleTM remains our flagship capsule for inflammation, all our capsules are formulated to compliment this capsule in reducing inflammation, along with providing highly absorbable forms of vitamins, minerals & adaptogens to be utilized by our bodies on a cellular level.
Reducing Inflammation & Oxidative Stress (Chronic Inflammation), via replenishing our tissues on a cellular level, with plant- based supplements and diet, along with exercise & mindful living, is the ROOT Cause to wellness & disease prevention.
We source all Raw Ingredients for our capsules from US Territories, and consistently research superior sources. Our capsules are free of preservatives and fillers, and our Raw Ingredients are tested regularly for impurities.
We provide the highest quality plant-based supplements, at affordable pricing, to allow our customers to take proper dosages to achieve their health goals and prevent disease. We strive to overcome barriers in the supplement industry: 1- Individuals don’t like to take too many supplements due to fillers, preservatives, and impurities in the capsules, limiting proper and needed intake of correct dosage 2- Cost of other products on the market, limiting proper and needed intake of correct dosage. Our Line of Capsules are simply more affordable and more therapeutic.
We at ROOT Cause Supplements, Fort Lauderdale, FL, strive to produce the cleanest, purest, plant-based supplements to lower-whole body inflammation, and optimize cellular health. Our Line of Synergistic Capsules offer benefits to all body systems, starting with our Curcu-Meric 975mg Capsule.
To achieve maximal results, our supplements contain Organic Plant-Based ingredients, combined with pure high-grade vitamins, minerals & adaptogens; without any fillers, additives, preservatives, and anti-caking agents; at extremely fair pricing, to ensure our clients / customers have no barriers to taking enough supplements daily, to feel and see true life-changing therapeutic results. Improving Quality of life, Improved Blood Laboratory Results, Lower Cholesterol Levels, Blood Pressure, Blood Sugar, Bone Density, Neurological and Psychological Well-Being, Prostate Conditions, Hormone Imbalance Problems, Pain from Arthritis-Muscle-Joint-Nerve Conditions, and more.
Lowering Whole-Body Inflammation is much more than simply reducing external symptomatic pain, as it addresses the ROOT Cause, of internal health concerns.
Lowering Inflammation, both acute and chronic (oxidative stress), is equally important to replacing Vitamins, Minerals and Adaptogens with your daily supplements. Thus the reason we have synergistic plant-based Ingredients in every capsule. Thus the reason we end all our Capsule names with Mmune. By lowering Inflammation significantly on a daily basis, we eliminate “nonsense inflammation” in the form of environmental pollutants and toxins, food additives and chemicals, and many other sources contributing towards this “nonsense inflammation”. Therefore, instead of your Immune System reacting to all this “nonsense inflammation”, It uses it’s resources to perform optimally and react to real external threats such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites. Equally Important, Optimal functioning of the Immune System prevents dysregulation of the Immune System, leading to onset of Auto-Immune Disorders.
There are many therapeutic supplement brands, with high quality products, and others with products which are over-priced, and contain many fillers, additives, preservatives, and anti-caking agents in production.
No matter how pure and strong a capsule is, customers are not educated properly in the supplement industry that taking 2-4 of a supplement is better than 1-2. The difficulty with the current climate in the supplement industry is: 1- Pricing (taking 2-4 can be costly) 2- additional ingredients in the capsules are not healthy at higher doses (fillers, additives, preservatives, and anti-caking agents).
We at ROOT Cause Supplements, educate our clients / customers on the short-term and long-term benefits of taking 2-4 of our capsules per day. Despite some of our capsule formulas being more specific for certain body systems, they all have therapeutic anti-inflammatory properties, with our most therapeutic anti-inflammatory being Curcu-Meric 975mg. Lowering Inflammation daily is critical for the health and well-being of all body systems.
To achieve maximal results, our supplements contain Organic Plant-Based ingredients, combined with pure high-grade vitamins, minerals & adaptogens; without any fillers, additives, preservatives, and anti-caking agents; at extremely fair pricing, to ensure our clients / customers have no barriers to taking enough supplements daily, to feel and see true life-changing therapeutic results. Improving Quality of life, Blood Laboratory Results, Cholesterol Levels, Blood Pressure, Blood Sugar, Bone Density, Neurological and Psychological Well-Being, Prostate Conditions, Hormone Imbalance Problems, Pain from Arthritis-Muscle-Joint-Nerve Conditions, and more.
Lowering Whole-Body Inflammation is much more than simply reducing external symptomatic pain, as it addresses the ROOT Cause, of internal health concerns.
As we slowly expand our line of supplements, we pair our products together for several reasons: 1- When it comes to lowering whole-body Inflammation to a significant degree, we like to combine other plant-based ingredients (which all have their own unique mechanism of lowering Inflammation), with our Curcu-Meric 975mg Capsule for maximal effect. 2- Starting with our Curcu-Meric 975mg capsule, which is universal for all body systems, our other capsules are more specific for certain body systems, despite there being much overlap. An example of overlap would be, the Gluco-Mmune 975mg capsule not only helps regulate blood-sugars, however, is also healthy for your cardiovascular system, and also to lower inflammation. Another example of overlap would be: Metabolism is positively affected by Curcu-Meric, Gluco-Mmune, Neuro-Mmune, and several other capsules, via each capsule’s own unique mechanism.
Lastly, for us to fully achieve our goals at ROOT Cause Supplements, we want to provide our customers with extremely therapeutic combinations of supplements working synergistically together to address specific health concerns. Why Bundles? No matter how pure a capsule is, there is only so much ingredient that can fit and be included in one capsule; therefore, combing several capsules with different ingredients creates a synergistic effect (ex. 2+2=6). Therefore, we carefully selected other companies we source products from, to pair with our capsules to achieve specific Therapeutic Results for specific conditions, and specific body systems.
Your starting point is to click on SHOP page of our menu bar on front page to decide which products / Bundles you feel best fit your needs from our , then consider emailing us to inquire what other products we recommend for your Health Concerns. Everyone is different; therefore, the below bundles vary greatly between each Individual. One individuals Cardiovascular Bundle can include different items than another. However, we almost always start with Curcu-Meric 975mg.
The Following are examples of bundles we create for specific Health Concerns:
Cardiovascular Bundles
Neuro-Brain Health Bundles
GI Tract Health Bundles
Osteoporosis Bundles
Anemia Bundles
Arthritis Bundles
Thyroid Health Bundles
Glucose Control Bundles
Cholesterol Lowering Bundle
Metabolism Boosting Bundles
Auto-Immune Disorder Bundles
Circulatory Problem Bundles
Women’s Health Bundles
Men’s Health Bundles
I, Dr. Miller established Root Cause Supplements in 2015 with the primary goal to produce plant based anti-inflammatory / anti-oxidant capsules to lower whole body inflammation. Lowering whole body inflammation not only improves symptomatic relief of daily pain and discomfort from musculoskeletal, joint and nerve conditions; however, more importantly prevents future disease.
Lowering chronic inflammation consistently, on a daily basis, addresses the root cause of disease at the cellular level, oxidative stress, which is free radical damage to our cells and tissues. This is the cause of chronic silent inflammation leading to cardiovascular disease, brain health decline, Gastrointestinal disease; and impacts all organs and body systems. Auto-Immune disorders are on the rise due to dysregulation of the immune system, thus lowering our chronic inflammation optimizes our Immune System.
The most studied botanical compound is Turmeric. Curcumin is the active ingredient in Turmeric Root. By nature, Turmeric Root contains only 4-6 percent Curcumin by unit weight and volume. This makes it impossible to obtain therapeutic levels of Curcumin in your body, on a daily basis, by ingesting turmeric root or spice. A supplement with 95% Curcumin is of high therapeutic value. However, the next problem is when this capsule with a high amount of Curcumin travels to your intestines and dissolves and is ready to be absorbed from your intestines to your blood stream and ultimately delivered to your tissues. Curcumin and Turmeric have a very poor absorption ratio. It’s scientifically researched that black pepper and ginger are required to be in the capsule for proper absorption. The organic ginger and ultra-pulverized black pepper are incorporated into the synergistic formula. Also included for maximum absorption and maximum anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory efficacy are the following compounds: Quercetin, Resveratrol, Bromelain, vitamin C, zinc and vitamin D3.
What sets our capsule apart from the others, is the very high concentration of Curcumin per capsule. Also, The purity of each capsule, as no fillers or preservatives are used. The Turmeric and Ginger are Organic and USA sourced. The other ingredients are professional grade and extremely pure and USA sourced as well. The synergy of this formula provides maximum anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties to your tissues on a cellular level. Synergy of a Therapeutic proprietary formula can be explained by the statement, 2+2=6, separately these compounds are therapeutic, however, together they have higher efficacy clinically.
When it comes to daily dosing the recommended dosing is 2-4 capsules per day. We base dosing on Gender, BMI and whether one is taking for prevention vs. prevention and treatment of a disorder. We have some individuals with Auto-Immune disorders taking 6-8 per day. The higher dosing recommended by ROOT Cause Supplements has nothing to do with the strength of each capsule. Our capsules are very pure and very concentrated with 975mg per capsule plus 500 IU of Vitamin D3. The education of our clients and customers on the importance of lowering whole-body inflammation, on a daily basis, and the fact that no matter how potent a capsule is, one must still ingest enough amounts to significantly lower daily inflammation which bombards our bodies from many sources.
There are many different pathways and cellular receptors which are involved in regulating inflammation, and our Flagship Curcu-Meric 975mg Capsule addresses many. However, other compounds, plant-based, vitamins, minerals and adaptogens lower inflammation by different pathways and cellular receptors. The analogy would be when your physician has you on 2 or 3 different blood pressure meds or diabetic meds to control your condition. They all function by different mechanisms. Therefore, once someone has been on their daily dose of Curcu-Meric 975mg capsule, after several months, they can decide if they want to add one or two other of our capsules to compliment the Curcu-Meric Capsule. We can never lower our chronic inflammation (Oxidative Stress) to zero, it’s impossible. If we could we would stop aging. Since we know that this is not possible, however, the more we lower it on a daily basis, the bigger impact we make. Majority of individuals are not ingesting enough foods and supplements to lower their daily load of oxidative stress (Chronic Inflammation).
Since we recommend higher dosing, we strive to keep the cost of our capsules affordable for the high quality. We don’t want our clients and customers to take less than what they require daily and sacrifice their health due to cost.
Our Gluco-Mmune 975mgTM Capsule — Contains Berberine
Berberine, which is in our Gluco-Mmune 975 mg, has received much attention in the past 6 months. It seems the literature focuses on 1 or 2 compounds every several months, and this can be misleading. Yes, Berberine is beneficial for what is described below, and so is it helpful to regulate blood sugars and lower inflammation. However, so is Turmeric, Moringa, Elderberry etc… The common mechanism is to lower oxidative stress on a cellular level, improving functions of the cell, and cell surface protein signaling, to accomplish a myriad of health benefits. Therefore, we created a synergy of plant-based compounds within and between our capsules to achieve maximal Health Goals.
We select top products from High Qality Brands to Pair with our Plant – Based Capsules (8) at ROOT Cause Supplements, LLC to achieve Therapeutic Results.

The Main Premise at ROOT Cause Supplements, LLC is continual research and development of products which decrease Inflammation & Oxidative Stress (Chronic Inflammation from free radical cellular damage); Resulting in Improved Immune System Function, and Prevention of disease onset.
With Curcu-Meric 975 mg CapsuleTM being our flagship product used by thousands of clients, customers, and prior patients, not only for Pain and Inflammation related to joints, muscles, and lower back pain from vertebral disk herniations with radiculopathy; however, for more chronic immune-mediated (Auto-Immune) disorders such as: Multiple Sclerosis, Ulcerative Colitis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriatic Arthritis, Eczema, Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, Scleroderma & Lupus
As well as for non-immune mediated chronic conditions, in which inflammation is a large factor in the ROOT Cause of the disorder, such as Migraine Headaches, Asthma, COPD, Sciatica, Ovarian Cysts, Menstrual cramps (dysmenorrhea), fibroid uterus, chronic cystitis (Bladder), Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy & Retinopathy & others, which we will elaborate more on in future BLOGS.
In order to properly treat these Inflammatory disorders, its important to stay ahead of the inflammatory curve inside your body and keep the inflammatory markers suppressed effectively and efficiently. This is achieved via the intake of healthy plant based compounds on a daily basis. Not only does Curcumin, the bioactive compound from Turmeric Root. suppress the inflammation effectively, it is extremely healthy for all your body systems, and thus makes it the perfect candidate to take on a daily basis.
Our goal is to address the ROOT-Cause, of illness at it’s origin, which is aberrations to cells due to inflammatory and oxidative stress. Eliminating those issues improves cellular function along with cellular & humoral immunity.
After Launching our first capsule, Curcu-Meric 975 mgTM, 6 years ago, recognizing Turmeric / Curcumin are not the only Plant- Based Polyphenol Compounds which lower whole-body inflammation. We created 2 other core capsules incorporating their own unique set of synergistic compounds to work in conjunction with Curcu-Meric 975 mgTM . Thus, the 3 core capsules are Curcu-Meric 975 mgTM , Berry-Mmune 975mgTM & Gluco-Mmune 975mgTM .

Anti-Inflammatory / Anti-Oxidant / Adaptogen Infused Delicious Coffee
Purity – Synergy – Integrity – Results —- ROOT Cause Supplements, LLC
The Intrinsic properties and compounds in raw coffee beans have been research proven to be extremely beneficial to our health. These benefits are related to coffees anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-mutagenic, anticarcinogenic & antithrombotic properties.
Via starting with a pure raw high quality instant coffee, we infuse Organic & Pure adaptogens, anti-oxidants & anti-inflammatory agents.
The advantage of using instant coffee is we eliminate the possibility of mold and other impurities contaminating your coffee by the freeze-drying and evaporation process involved making instant coffee. Instant coffee is pure coffee, free of any contaminants, impurities and mold, thus we eliminate the ingestion of those compounds potentially ingested with regular coffee.
Despite the health benefits of coffee, the acidity can create stomach and intestinal problems in certain individuals. The infusion / pulverization process we use when adding: Turmeric, Cinnamon, Maca, Nutmeg, Rhodiola, Ashwagandha, Vanilla Bean & B-Vitamins eliminates the intestinal problems coffees acidity can create.
The Other VERY IMPORTANT advantage of this product is the infusion/ pulverization of these Plant-Based compounds into an Instant, rather than Ground Coffee (Filled with impurities, mold & acidity), allows the consumer to ingest these agents directly for maximum benefit, as opposed to water dripping through the ground coffee in that brewing process.
Our Unique instant coffee blend at ROOT Cause Supplements, produced at our Lab in Florida, will also most likely help if you experience any signs or symptoms of Reflux (GERD), while drinking, or after drinking Coffee in general. Also of importance to mention is the harmful effects one my experience on their lower esophagus in general if they experience Reflux (GERD) during regular meals. That reflux causes inflammation of the lower esophagus, and in some individuals can cause abnormal cells over time, and even mild stricture / narrowing of that region.
This can be a quite lengthy conversation about Reflux (GERD); However, the take home message is the Compounds infused / Pulverized into our Coffee will help lower that Inflammatory Reaction in the Lower Esophagus, to help prevent any long term damage the reflux may be causing by coming in direct contact with those tissues when our coffee is consumed, especially the Turmeric, Maca, Ashwagandha & Cinnamon.
NO ADDED SWEETNERS OR DAIRY added to our Blend
After Placing a Teaspoon of our Instant Coffee Blend to Hot Water, one may add any dairy / non-dairy product and sweetener they prefer
Collaboration with Cutting-Edge Science
Metformin (Glucophage) and our Curcu-Meric Capsules have a tremendous synergistic affect, according to a most recent Analysis with proven glucose control.
Also, showing improvement in Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy and Retinopathy over a 6-9 month period.
