Hey, it's Dr. Dan Perer here. Danperd.com. It's a pretty serious subject I want to talk about today. You parents out there, the really successful, athletic, super athletic parents, maybe you play pro sports, maybe you did some amazing things in college. you see your child
should be up to that level or you think they should be but things have happened they become exhausted they're fatigued all the time they're not putting on muscle all that you may want to have them see someone like me because I do an intraator vitamin mineral amino acid
panel and get them on the right vitamins in our old office well just a few months ago that we moved out of right next door was a major NFL training program uh training and team and I'd get these NFL
guys in my office occasionally that were just exhausted, just losing weight. No one could figure out why. They were incredibly malnourished. They had vitamin deficiencies. Yes, you can weigh 240, 280, 320 pounds and be malnourished. Uh because if you miss key
vitamins, your testosterone will drop. Your drive will drop. Your athletic performance will drop. Uh, and if you're a 14, 15, 16, 18 year old boy still trying to grow and mature. We don't mature really till we're 28. It could be a massive amount of vitamin
deficiencies. So, my team and I'll be more than happy to look at that for you for what you can get if you thought they were headed towards a scholarship. uh having some testing would be is not only good for the child but might help them redeem their athletics too and make them a top level NCAA division one athlete or
division 2 athlete get a scholarship. It could be the difference. I'm shocked that more parents aren't using this technology to really help their child. it. Uh, it's a great or the parent even. Um, or you pro athletes out there who are freaking exhausted all the time and
your numbers are dropping, your golf games dropping, whatever. It's just vitamins. Nothing illegal in there. Not and everything's okay with your um with your governing bodies. It's just taking vitamins. You can double check everything on there. Not giving any
steroids or anything like that, but it's all natural. It's a way to go. consider it. Anyway, just public service announcement really. It's Dr. Dan Perer.
